Tips

Euphemia Anna 🌳

These numerous ponds are either leased by the Enkenbach fishing club or belong to the sport fishermen Kaiserslautern or the local community of Enkenbach.
The focus here is on nature conservation (no bathing ponds!).

"Today the ponds are classified as natural monuments, but in reality they are also industrial monuments. They were laid out in 1809 by the industrialist Baron von Gienanth. At that time, the water power of the Alsenz still played a very important role. The Gienanths operated about 12 km downstream in Schweisweiler an iron hammer mill. The building still exists today and is now used as a community center. The Schwarzweiher, along with other ponds in the upper reaches, were buffer storage tanks from which water was fed into the Alsenz when it was dry to operate the iron hammers. "

Very idyllic pond landscape in which every nature lover comes at his own expense.
