    The Decksteiner Weiher is an artificial pond with straight banks in the outer green belt of the city of Cologne. It plays an important role in leisure activities as a park.
    A square part with an inaccessible central island and a square recess in the northwest corner for the "Haus am See" restaurant with outdoor terrace is connected to a larger basin in the southeast by a canal, which is accompanied by a chestnut avenue. A larger square area extends into the southeast end, which is lined with a widened avenue of plane trees. A wide jetty has been built here. Another is located on the north bank of the canal near the facilities of the former Fort VI, where boats can be stored.


    The pond is about 20 hectares in size and about 1.50 m deep. The excavated material was piled up on the southern side to form viewing hills that are used for sledding in winter. A walk of almost 6 kilometers around the Decksteiner pond in the outer green belt takes place. The many trees provide plenty of shade on hot summer days.
