The history of the Singerweiher goes back to the late 15th century. It was probably dammed back then to wash ore, which was then processed in the nearby saber mill. A Cuntz singer is said to be the builder – hence the name.
Today, the Singerweiher is a near-natural body of water, an important resting and breeding ground for several species of waterfowl and a habitat for numerous other organisms.

The Singerweiher on the "Franconian Steinreich" hiking trail is in the middle of the forest, not far from the Weißenstein spring and the Weißenstein tower with inn
