The Seelhausener See is a roughly 622 hectare open- cast mine that emerged from the former Rösa open- cast lignite mine (part of the Goitzsche ). It is mostly in the federal state of Saxony and to a lesser extent in Saxony-Anhalt .
General information
The town of Seelhausen was dredged over in 1987 during the expansion of the Goitzsche opencast mine . The Seelhausen lake was created by flooding the remaining open pit. It is located west of Löbnitz , south of Bitterfeld and north of Delitzsch , in the Saxon Lake District . From the end of July 2000, the lake was filled with a water volume of 1 m³ / s from the hollow via a pipeline until it was destroyed in 2002 by the Elbe floods . Since this event, the lake has been fed by the Lober-Leine Canal . According to the LMBV , in March 2004 96% of the planned water level had been reached. The flooding work was completed in 2005. In the meantime, a beach facility has been built at the flooding point, and further use of the lake as a local recreation area is being planned.
To the northwest of the Seelhauser See lies the larger Große Goitzschesee . The lake area also includes the Paupitzscher , Holzweißiger, Ludwigsee , Neuhäuser and Zöckeritzer See with Essigloch and Auensee. The total area of all lakes in the former Goitzsche opencast mine is estimated at 24 square kilometers.
The Seelhauser See is a residual open pit lake with a water level of 78 m above sea level. NN. Its storage space is 74 million m³ with a storage area of 622 hectares.
