The pond was created in 1794 as a fish pond and served for the supply of drinking water to Ballenstedt from 1951. At the beginning of the 90s, this was discontinued. Source: Information board

The highlight is already here. Why make another one? I've reported it.

Is it possible to simply check beforehand where you're going to create these highlights? It's getting worse and worse with Komoot that some people are creating highlights where they're not even there.

The spot is actually called "Lampe" (like light) and is the narrowest point in the Selke Valley. The rocks are only 15 meters apart at their narrowest point. The bridge over the Selke River is accordingly called the "Lampenbrücke" (Lamp Bridge).

The figure appears to be incorrectly located on the map. It can be found next to the shelter at Meisdorfer Trift.
