    The reservoir was created in 1942, during the German occupation. The workforce for the construction of this investment was Polish Jews. There are two versions of the purpose for which the reservoir was built:
    - the first mentions German soldiers-patients staying in a nearby military hospital, located in barracks buildings. Perhaps they wanted to create a kind of resort for them
    - according to the second version, it was related to the lowering of the groundwater level due to the drainage of the Sokółka marshes, which began before the war.
