The Hainer lake was like the neighboring lakes Haubitzer lake and Kahn Dorfer lake from the surface mining area "Witznitz II" produced and is part of Leipziger Neuseenland .
Geographical location
The Hainer See is located in the Leipzig lowland bay northwest of Borna and south of Leipzig in the Neukieritzsch municipality . The Hainer See is the middle of the three residual lakes of the former Witznitz II opencast mine. It belongs to the natural area of the mining area south of Leipzig .
history
The Hainer lake was created as the Haubitzer and Kahn Dorfer lake as mining landscape through restoration of the 1,993 abandoned mine Witznitz II. His name he of the broken off by the open pit Witznitz II place Hain , the former hall now stands in the lake. The town of Kreudnitz also had to give way to this opencast mine. A memorial stone on the shores of Lake Hainer, which was erected in 2005 at the "Hain-Kreudnitz meeting", commemorates both of the devastated places. At the beginning of 2010 the lake reached its final water level. In the same year the lake was connected to the Pleiße via a canal . The lake and the adjacent bank areas are owned by Blauwasser GmbH & Co. KG. The Hainer See has been developed for tourism since 2008. The two main areas of development are the Kahnsdorf lagoon (area of the former Kahnsdorf daytime facilities) with the marketing of building plots and the north bank between Rötha and Espenhain , where a campsite was opened in 2015.
In order to counteract acidification and to achieve “recreational quality” for the lake water, the LMBV added dissolved quicklime to the flooding water to neutralize it until the end of the flooding . The neutralization system was then used on Lake Zwenkau .
