The Schiessrothried lake is a small reservoir in the Vosges . It was created as a glacier lake at the end of the Ice Age , but later silted up to form a raised bog. In order to regulate the water supply for mills in the Münstertal , a dam was built between 1887 and 1891, which created today's lake on the moor. This has a length of about 400 m with a maximum width of 250 m and a depth of 11 m. Its outflow, the Wormsabachrunz, flows a few kilometers into the Fecht , which flows through the Münstertal.
