Aegelsee
The Aegelsee was a lake in the municipality of Zollikofen , near the borders with Münchenbuchsee and Kirchlindach in the Swiss canton of Bern . The hamlet of the same name lies on its former bank .
It was a dead lake that was created by the glacier retreat . It did not have a natural drain.
The Aegelsee was drained around 1947/1948. On what was once the bottom of the Aegelsee there is a pump house that prevents a lake from forming again.
