The Kupferteich (Copper Pond) on the border of the Hamburg districts of Poppenbüttel and Lemsahl-Mellingstedt was originally a mill pond and served as a copper mill. It is easily circumnavigated by bike or on foot. It was created by damming the Mellingbek and Twelenbek rivers, which flow from the Wittmoor and join in front of the pond, to a height of approximately 900 meters. In the mill at the Kupferteich, a copper hammer was used to produce panels for roofs, ship floors, and boilers for sugar refineries. Remains of fish ponds can be found at the northern end of the Kupferteich. In the mid-19th century, the Kupferteich became a sawmill, later an oil mill, after which the facility fell into disuse. Due to its dilapidated condition, it was demolished in 1929. The Kupferteich is now an approximately 7.0-hectare fishing lake, and since 2019, it, including its shoreline, has been designated a specially protected biotope area under the Federal Nature Conservation Act. A golf course has stretched east and west of the Kupferteich since the 21st century. There is a dog walking area on the western shore of the pond. Access to the Kupferteich is via the 1.5 km long Kupferteichweg, a road that leads to a sandy path leading to the pond. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kupferteich_(Mellingbek)

Beautiful trails, please observe the signs. No Entry. Nature Conservation. Not all trails are accessible by car.

The Kupferteich is the former mill pond of a long-demolished copper mill between Lemsahl-Mellingstedt and Poppenbüttel. For this purpose, the Mellingbek and Twelenbek rivers, which come from the Wittmoor and join in front of the Kupferteich, were dammed to a height of around 900 m. At the northern beginning of the Kupferteich and below the former mill dam at the lower end, there are still remains of fish ponds. In the middle of the pond there is a dam that also dams up the northern part. There used to be a campsite with a small restaurant on the western bank. Today the area is set up as a dog run. To the west and east of the Kupferteich there is now an extensive golf course. South of the Kupferteich, between the Poppenbütteler Berg and Poppenbütteler Hauptstraße, there is still a street called Kupferhammer, which is partly laid out as a footpath. After leaving the Kupferteich, the Mellingbek flows into the Alster near Hohenbuchen.

I have driven past here several times and was always impressed by the area and this dam or the dam wall. I happened to discover something on Wikipedia about a former mill that used to stand here. From the 17th to the beginning of the 20th century there was a water mill at the Kupferteich, of which only the mill pond and the dam wall of the mill remain today. The mill was a copper mill that was powered by the 900 meter dammed Kupferteich. Around 1850 the Kupferteich was converted into a sawmill and later into an oil mill. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mellingbek
