For the sake of simplicity, most people in Stuttgart probably refer to the three lakes as bear lakes. In 1566, Duke Christoph decided to build the Pfaffensee to end the water shortage for the mills at the time. The Glems was dammed for this purpose.
The other two lakes were added later. The Glems currently flows over the Pfaffensee to the Neuen See and from there over an overflow into the Mahdental in the direction of Leonberg.
