When the forest is being swept (it was closed because of tree work) we have to take detours.

Worthwhile hike to the two dams Neunzehnhain 1 and 2

The Neunzehnhain Dam was built between 1911 and 1914 in the Bornwald near Pockau-Lengefeld in the Ore Mountains. It was put into operation shortly before the outbreak of the First World War. Due to the rapid industrialization of the Chemnitz area at the end of the 19th century and the enormous population growth of that time, water consumption rose rapidly. The Neunzehnhain Dam, which was only inaugurated in 1908, could no longer meet the water demand just three years later - and was therefore given a larger sister to accompany it.

The reservoir was created 600 years ago as a water reservoir for mining and is therefore the oldest reservoir in the Ore Mountains with very good water quality. On both banks of the bathing lake there is an extensive sandy beach with a well-kept lawn. The Greifenbach reservoir is one of the oldest dams in Germany. After the Ehrenfriedersdorf Röhrgraben was created around 1380 to supply the tin mines in Ehrenfriedersdorf with water from the Greifenbach, the stream was probably dammed for the first time in 1396. In 1404 the Great Geyer Pond or Upper Geyer Protection Pond was expanded so that in the 15th century it had a capacity of 60,000 m³ of water. Below the old road from Geyer to Jahnsbach there were other ponds on the Greifenbach, the Upper and Lower Ratsteich, some of which are still preserved. On the banks of the Greifenbach reservoir there was first a poison hut, later a dynamite factory. After the dam was raised in 1942, the storage capacity increased to 534,000 m³. In 1968, the reservoir was enlarged to 634,000 m³ and has been used for local recreation ever since. The dam was repaired in 1948, 1976/77 and from 2010 to 2012. The barrier structure is an earthen dam. The dammed water is the Red Water, which leaves the reservoir under the name Greifenbach.
