Hammerschmiedesee
The Hammerschmiedeseen are reservoirs near Pommertsweiler , a suburb of Abtsgmünd in the Swabian-Franconian Forest in Baden-Württemberg .
They were artificially created for the operation of hammer smiths in the 18th century; for this, the young Bühler was dammed with earth dams 3 to 5 m high.
At the lakes there is a campsite with around 100 temporary and around 160 permanent spaces, as well as an inn .
