    Prince Victor Friedrich von Anhalt-Bernburg had the pits in Ostergrund operated again from 1746 to 1749 and had the Holy Pond created as a dam for a water feature.

      Today's Holy Pond is a reservoir that was created for mining purposes in the mid-18th century. It was needed to operate a water art system for ore mines below the pond. However, it can be assumed that a natural pond existed at this point before the dam was built. Because an ancient legend, the events of which took place when Gernrode was founded in the middle of the 10th century, gave it its name. You can find this legend in our Harzer Sagen Portal at the address: harzer-sagen.harz-urlaub.de/landschaftssagen/heiliger-teich-gernrode.htm.
