Lake Senftenberg (Template:Langx, formerly called Speicherbecken Niemtsch—Niemtsch reservoir, Template:Langx, Template:Langx) is an artificial lake in Landkreis Oberspreewald-Lausitz, Brandenburg, Germany. It is located in the Lusatian Lake District, a chain of artificial lakes. The lake is located on the border of Lower and Upper Lusatia between the southern Brandenburg city of Senftenberg and its districts Niemtsch and Großkoschen. Lake Senftenberg is one of the largest artificial lakes in Germany with an area of 1300 hectares (5 sq. mi.).
History
The lake was created by the flooding of the former opencast lignite mine of Niemtsch by the Black Elster from 15 November 1967 to November 1972.
The flooding rate was initially at up to Script error: No such module "convert".. To shorten the filling time, another flood channel was opened Script error: No such module "convert". away from the first channel in May 1968. Melt water and rain water meant that the flooding rate increased to up to Script error: No such module "convert"..[1]
Since the commissioning of the first beach section in 1973, the lake has enjoyed great popularity as a recreational area with holidaymakers, bathers, surfers and sailors. Of a total of Script error: No such module "convert". of shoreline, Script error: No such module "convert". are considered to be beaches. There are three official naturist beaches on the lake; on the north shore of the lake, at the campsite west of Großkoschen and at the "Südsee" between Peickwitz and Niemtsch.[2]
After 1990, embankments were built on large sections, because the variable water level threatened to cause large parts of the lake edge to collapse. The depth of the lake was initially Script error: No such module "convert"., but more recent measurements have found no points deeper than Script error: No such module "convert"..
From December 2010 to April 2013, a town harbour was built in Senftenberg. It was opened on 23 April 2013. It created a marina with over 100 boat moorings, an Script error: No such module "convert". floating pier and a harbour building. The construction costs amounted to €13 million.
