It is a moat created in the 19th century. It was used to transport the water from the basic harrow of the middle pond to the former stamp mill in Bockswiese.

It is still fascinating and remarkable what was achieved with the moats back then.

The Wäschegraben is part of an ingenious system of ponds, ditches, and waterways that was created from the 16th to the 19th century to supply energy to the Upper Harz silver mining industry. Today, the Wäschegraben is part of the Liebesbankweg, a popular premium hiking trail around Hahnenklee. At the Upper Flößteich, which is fed by the Wäschegraben, there is a water playground that playfully explains the use of water as an energy source.
