    The course of the Rotbach is particularly affected by subsidence. Again and again, seams collapse deep under the river and on the surface small ponds, ponds and lakes are formed.

    The Christmas lake arose in this way in the year 2002. On the Christmas days, the earth slipped off, the Rotbach stepped over its shore and filled the pit. Meanwhile, nature has brought back the place and the Christmas lake is protected as a natural biotope.

      It happened about six years ago when a creek sank at Bottrop in the earth, and the water overflowed its shores, and it became a lake. And because it all happened at Christmas, they called him "Christmas Lake". A nice story? And even true.

        Visit to the Christmas lake in the Kirchheller Heide, Bottrop. It is worth it!
