"In the past it was quite common to give French buildings to public buildings or, as in this case, small lakes. This is how the" Lac "was named (le lac - the lake).

The Lac is a small lake that has interesting tree and shrub populations. In some cases, these are still rarities from distant continents.

The water with which the Lac is fed flows from the fountain pond over artificial waterfalls to the Lac. The water comes out of the park through a drain, which was also created by Jussow in 1789. Here it emerges as a meadow brook from the mountain park. While it used to flow through Kassel in the same form, today an underground pipe system ensures the transport of water. From the Hercules pyramid to the fountain at the bottom of the castle, the course of the water can be easily followed.

Nowadays the Lac with ducks and swans is not only a popular place for Sunday walks, but also a well-known meeting place for biologists and other interested people. Because in the evening, especially on mild summer evenings, you will find a large number of bats of various species.

The Lac offers views of animals and plants. The water lilies are also very beautiful 😉.
