A shelter and fresh spring water invite you to rest. A memorial stone commemorates the 10th Pioneer Battalion. A water intake point was built in 1937/38. It was named Böss-Quelle, probably after the forester Bössenroth who worked here.

Beautiful pond area with benches for resting.

Hikers can get fresh spring water from the Bösquelle. The water flows from the source through the Fuchsbachtal water catchment area north to the valley.

You wouldn't expect the big pond to be behind the Annastift.

The hut is unfortunately locked, would be nice in winter if you could go inside.

Just the right place for a break.

In earlier centuries, today's park area was a moist fen area, which was used to mine clay from the 17th century onwards. The former clay pit later filled with water. This resulted in the originally much smaller Annateich. From 1936 to 1939 the pond was greatly expanded for the park in the local recreation area. The lake consists of an eastern and a western part, which are separated by a dam that is broken in two places. The water is slightly cloudy, the water depth is in the range of 1-2 m. In the western part the water is slightly deeper than in the eastern part. Due to the separation into two parts with only minimal connecting points, the Annateichen are also colloquially spoken of in the plural in Hanover. Source: Wikipedia
