the pond is nice to look at

The only nature reserve in the city of Ansbach with an area of 52 hectares. The eponymous Scheerweiher was created in the Middle Ages as a fish pond by damming two streams. Since then, the pond has developed into an ecologically mature body of still water in Middle Franconia. Coming from Schalkhausen, there is a car park immediately after the railway underpass. The unmarked circular path around the nature reserve leads from the car park to the small observation tower, which offers a beautiful view of the extensive pond area with just a few steps. Following the road, you reach the Scheermühle via the Scheerweiher dam. The water from the pond was used to operate the Scheermühle, which was built in the 17th century, until 1930. This is indicated by a wooden coat of arms in the gable of the roof of the half-timbered house. Continuing through the forest towards Neudorfer Mühle, the path finally leads in an arc back towards the car park. The last section of the path runs along a former road, parallel to the railway tracks, back to the starting point. More than 60 species of birds breed in the area, and toads and newts use the nearby pond to spawn. Over five thousand common toads form one of the largest populations in the Franconian Heights natural area.
