        The Hakenkrümme was a narrow, almost circular bend or loop of the Schwarzwasser between Aue and Lauter. The Hakenkrümme was a popular tourist destination until the 1920s, as it was valued as a natural wonder and because of its romantic landscape. It was somewhat similar to the Moselle bend near Bullay in Rhineland-Palatinate.

        From 1858, the Schwarzenberg-Zwickau railway line cut through the Hakenkrümme, which led over two bridges over the Schwarzwasser here. The two bridges on curved tracks are listed buildings. On one side of the Hakenkrümme there is a rocky slope that has long been used as a quarry.

        In 1921, Aue's municipal outdoor pool was built in the Hakenkrümme. Due to its idyllic location and modern facilities, it was considered one of the most beautiful pools in Saxony and existed until 1945. After that, it had to make way for Wismut AG's uranium mining...
