It is one of the oldest dams in Germany and the oldest in Saxony. The 'Red Water' is dammed up, which in turn is fed from a completely natural catchment area of 10 km². Two beautiful sandy beaches with spacious sunbathing lawns, pleasantly clean air and very good water quality in accordance with the EU Bathing Water Directive attract visitors from near and far every year. The non-swimmers' area also provides fun for all younger bathers. The two giant water slides are also very popular with young and old alike.
