Café Noah at Hohnsensee

Always worth a nice walk around the lake. The nearby café offers a beautiful view both indoors and out, and the VfV Hildesheim sports complex has an outdoor pool.

The Hohnsensee is a 500 m long, 250 m wide and 9.5 ha swimming lake in Hildesheim, Lower Saxony.The Hohnsensee is located south of the new town between the street "Hohnsen", the Innerste, the outdoor pool Johanniswiese and the overflow basin for the Innerste. The northern part belongs as a beach with a 150 m long sandy beach to the pool and is therefore subject to a charge, in the remaining part can be bathed at your own risk free. According to the decision of the Council of the City of Hildesheim of 22 November 1965, the water was intended from the outset as a recreational area. It was created by gravel quarrying from 1966 to 1974 and was named after the desert village of Hohnsen.
