    The Schafsee, located in the middle of the forest near Käßlitz, is a beautiful place with seating right by the pond. You can enjoy nature, watch frogs and dragonflies or take a break.

      At that time, lakes that were used as watering places for animals were commonly referred to as sheep or cow lakes. There is even a sheep bath in the Hassberge. The name comes from the fact that sheep were driven through the water to remove vermin from their fur.

        The Schafsee is hidden in the forest. Today it was still completely frozen.
