Emergence
In the 1960s and 1970s, sand was mined in the area of today's garbage dump. A total of three pits (Borchert 1, Herr, Borchert 2) were created at different times and were filled with a wide variety of garbage in the following years. The deposit ended in 1984. The Hummelsee was created from an unfilled part of the Borchert 2 landfill . Between 1985 and 1989 the spaces between the three landfill hills were filled. In the 1990s, there was another saddling up. As far as we know today, the deposited garbage is predominantly mineral material. In addition to soil / construction rubble, various household and commercial waste as well as industrial waste were deposited, the exact composition of which is not known.
