Geographical location

The Trappensee is located on the west foot of the Heilbronn Mountains about 2.5 km east of Heilbronn city center in a valley basin at 183  m above sea level. NN . It is fed by the Köpferbach , which runs through the valley from the Köpferbrunnen facility in the south and is called the Pfühlbach in its western lower course below the lake .  District road 9550 (Jägerhausstrasse) runs from Heilbronn to Jägerhaus , Waldheide and Donnbronn immediately south of the lake .

history

The lake already existed in the 16th century. It was mentioned for the first time in a dispute from 1519, when a Jos Un beworren led the water of the Pfühlbach to the detriment of the Mönchsee further downstream into his lake. From 1573 the lake was named Orthensee after its new owner, the mayor Philipp Orth (1534–1603) . Orth built an estate there in 1575/76 with fruit growing and fish farming and had a manor house built in the middle of the water . From 1653 the property was owned by the mayor Ludwig Trapp (1596–1655), after whom the lake received its current name Trappensee . The so-called Trappenseeschlösschen , a small moated castle in the middle of the lake, had the Dutch admiral Heinrich August von Kinckel rebuilt into its present form after he came into possession of the complex in 1784.

Until the expansion of the city of Heilbronn into its surrounding area in the 20th century, the Trappensee was outside the settlement boundary. In December 2005 and refurbished trains of the city railway Heilbronn served breakpoint Heilbronn Trappensee at the nearby Hohenlohe Railway is named after him.
