The Boisdorfer See is an opencast mining lake that was created in a depression in the terrain during the recultivation of the former Frechen opencast mine. The lake is named after the former Kerpen district of Boisdorf, which was excavated when the opencast mine was charred in 1975 and was located roughly at the site of today's lake. (Source: Wikipedia)
