The Turnersee ( Slov .: Zablaško Jezero ) is a swimming lake in the municipality of St. Kanzian in south-east Carinthia .

description

Like the Gösselsdorfer See , the lake lies on the Rückersdorfer Platte. It is the remnant of a post-glacial lake of about 9 km². In addition to the Turnersee, which today has an area of ​​44 hectares, only the Tomarte Pond , part of the Sablatnigmoors near Eberndorf, remains as an open water area.

tourism

There are seven bathing spots around the lake, including two different campsites and some guest houses.

geology

The lake lies in a sander made of gravel. At about 455 meters above sea level, about 30 meters below its water surface, there is a groundwater-retaining layer of clay, Tegel and Tegelsanden with a gradient of 7.5 ‰ to the north. The expansion of the groundwater body extends far to the south and to the north beyond the Klopeinersee.

The inflow into the Turnersee is about 2,932,800 m³ due to the precipitation in its catchment area (evaporation already taken into account). Of this, 2,106,780 m³ run off on the surface. The balance shows that 826.020 m³ flow through the aquifer. From the balance of the Klopeiner See and the proven groundwater outflows in it, it is concluded that at least part of the water from the Turnersee catchment area fishes the Klopeiner See.

ecology

flora

On the silted areas there are broad stands of reeds and flat limestone bogs , the latter with primrose , rosemary willow ( Salix repens subsp. Rosmarinifolia ), fever clover and marsh stendrums . Sea and pond roses grow in the lake .

fauna

Lapwing , stonechat and yellow wagtail can be found on the swamps .

The lake is home to a population of noble crayfish (Astacus Astacus). Hobby fishing is permitted with a license. Carp are stocked, but they also reproduce naturally. There are a total of ten species of fish:

Water rating

The Institute for Lake Research Carinthia describes the Turnersee 2019 as weakly mesotrophic . This means a light to medium load of nutrients and medium plant growth. The main source is thought to be agriculture in the 6.27 km² small catchment area . In the ratings for the years 2005 to 2009 it was shown as oligotrophic , i.e. low in nutrients. The microbiological bathing water quality has been rated "Excellent" every year since 2014. The average depth of view in 2018 was 3.3 meters.

In August 2018, the lake was anoxic below 10 meters on the two days of sampling . As a result of this, at the end of this month, deep anaerobic processes and the formation of hydrogen sulfide occurred.

Name and history

The original name of the water is Sablatnigsee . In 1932, the Orsini-Rosenberg family sold the lake to an association that is part of the Wolfsberg gymnastics club. This gave him the new name Turnersee. The Austrian Gymnastics Federation , at that time the preliminary organization of the National Socialists banned in Austria, set up a youth camp on the sunny side. The home was named after the club's founder and SS member Karl Hönck. After the “ Anschluss of Austria ”, the Carinthian border call reported in 1940 about these camps: “During the system time, the Turnerseelager served to train and guide the leaders of the Turnerbund towards the great goal that was achieved in 1938 with the return of the Ostmark to the German Reich . "

Starting in 2016, the origin of the name of the lake and the home, which was sometimes perceived as problematic, was publicly discussed several times. The association sticks to the name. The origin of the name of the lake and the history of the youth camp were discussed again in 2020 after the documentation archive of the Austrian Resistance (DÖW) filed a complaint with the police against the operator of a holiday home website. On the website, the above quotation from the NS newspaper Kärntner Grenzruf from 1940 was reproduced almost word for word in the description of the lake.
