The Dammer Bergsee is a unique feature of the Dammer Hills landscape. The lake was artificially created. Iron ore was mined approximately one kilometer away between 1939 and 1967. In order to recycle the sludge produced during the processing of the iron ore, a drainless reservoir was created in 1953 as a treatment pond, today's Dammer Bergsee. As recently as the 1970s, the landscape resembled an abandoned open-cast mine more than a natural paradise. Nature has since reclaimed the area. The Dammer Bergsee has been a nature reserve since 1995. It has become a popular local recreation area for walkers, athletes, and hikers. You can easily cycle or walk around it. https://www.damme.de/Kultur-Freizeit/Freizeit/Ausflugsziele/Dammer-Bergsee/
