The Great Pond was the castle pond of the former House of Brünninghausen. It is fed by several natural springs from the Schondelle and Wiesenbach, and also by warm pit water from former mining shafts, which may keep the pond ice-free for a little longer in winter. Water birds, fish and turtles can be observed from the asphalt paths with benches and viewing platforms and a popular bridge. The old beech trees and other trees on the lake shore are particularly colorful in autumn.
