    A charming reservoir with an island in the middle, created as a result of the operation of the "Barbara" iron ore mine, specifically its extraction shaft no. 3, dug in 1965. The shaft had a concrete casing, a diameter of 4.3 m and a depth of 107.9 m. It operated until 1971.

    A path runs around the reservoir, which can be used to circle it. There are several benches for anglers on the shore.

    Near the reservoir there is a slag heap with a relative height of 31 m. Like the reservoir, it was created as a result of the operation of the mine shaft. A path leads to it, which is quite steep. From the top, you can admire the view of Jasna Góra Zwycięstwa and the southern districts of Częstochowa. In good weather, you can even see the ruins of the castle in Olsztyn. Unfortunately, the view is slowly being obscured by trees growing higher and higher.
