Until the lake was completely fenced in, this place was a beautiful place, especially in the evenings, with a lovely holiday vibe. Now it's more like an enclosure.

01/01/2023 - The Knollteich at Maria-Theresienplatz has become more and more muddy over the last few decades. The restoration began in 2005 - the result is impressive. The Knollteich was completely repaired by HSV Fishing and Casting in 2005. The ongoing flow of water from the Kehrbach (Schwarza) allows the stocking of trout. Fishing in the Knollteich is only permitted with artificial flies and streamers. Source: https://hsv-angeln.at/gewasser/knollteich/

The "Achtersee" - also called "Achterlacke" - is a small gravel lake in the west of WN. It got its name from its shape, which it got from the merging of "Chrysanthemum Lake" and "Begonia Lake" and which is reminiscent of the number 8. Implementation as a bathing lake began in 2014 and the area was expanded into an urban recreation area. This was followed by the opening of the "Himmelblau" beach club with adjacent beach volleyball court and playground.
