The best running trails around Anzing

The Anzing local chronicle recalls a closed meeting of the district environmental committee in which Lake Lindsee was mentioned as a possible site for a landfill. This sparked resistance in Anzing and Vaterstetten. The Anzing municipal council initiated a demonstration in the area in 1990. Approximately 1,000 people participated on October 20, 1990, according to the Catholic parish newsletter. An ecumenical service, in which St. Francis's Canticle of the Sun was recited, concluded the day. In addition, both municipalities purchased land to create a biotope. An expert later confirmed that the subsoil was unsuitable for a landfill due to its high water permeability. The Lindsee landfill was thus dead. But not the idea of creating a biotope by human hands. Work began in 1994. And thanks to those at the top were not forgotten either. At the inauguration in early October 1998, the then chairman of the Anzing parish council, Otto Belmer, the mayors Peter Dingler and Richard Hollerith, and architect Ernst Burger stated that the chapel was not only a sign of gratitude for preventing the planned landfill, but also a warning against further environmental destruction. https://www.merkur.de/lokales/ebersberg/anzing-ort377246/20-jahre-lindseekapelle-10406265.html

Quite simply - it's worth it if you are interested in history

Beautiful forest highway, as they say

Well hidden behind the canopy of leaves is a bench. The pond is further down and can be reached via the wide access road.

Nice bench to take a breather or for a snack in the beautiful forest.

Anzing / Purfing - The Lindsee Chapel between Anzing and Purfing is by no means a classic Upper Bavarian chapel with the typical onion dome. Nor does it have centuries of tradition. Nonetheless, the small, architecturally fancy church above the artificial lake that gave it its name tells a not insignificant story for the north of the district. And it takes place in the early 90s. A garbage dump was to be built in the immediate vicinity, so this chapel was built to prevent this.

Whoever seeks finds, not easy to see

http://www.sqribe.eu/content/ebersberg/lindseekapelle.html > Lindsee Chapel Sacred building (Lat: 48.1387; Long: 11.8371) The Lindsee Chapel - because chapels are not torn down in Bavaria No - it doesn't look like a typical Upper Bavarian chapel, the Lindsee Chapel above the lake of the same name, which isn't a real lake either. It is more like a launch pad for a rocket or a modern shelter where farmers can take refuge during thunderstorms. In any case, the chapel, which was only completed in 1998, catches the eye with its striking silhouette. There are various interpretations as to why and why a place of worship was built at this point. One version goes like this: When the Ebersberg landfill on the sheep pasture was slowly becoming full in the 1990s, a replacement site was sought for the dirt of civilization. Among other things, the area in the hollow between Neufarn and Purfing was checked for impermeability of the subsoil. The location obviously seemed suitable, which is why the Purfingers stormed the landfill. As is well known, this led to the “Ebersberger Way” of, as the saying goes, integrated waste management - commonly known as waste separation. The landfill on the sheep pasture did not need to be replaced. As a thank you for the chalice passing Purfing again, construction of the chapel began in 1995. This meant the area was protected forever and ever. Because if one thing is certain in Bavaria: chapels will never be demolished. The plans come from the Purfinger architect Ernst Burger. For Burger, the idea of creation is closely linked to man's obligation to treat nature responsibly. With the strict, almost forbidding shape of the chapel, Burger wants to ensure that the eye concentrates on the essential, creation. Today the area around the Lindsee biotope and the chapel of the same name is a popular local recreation area. Just imagine if rusty tin cans and other household waste would spoil the idyll here.
