Lake Brahm
Highlight • Lake
The municipality of Langwedel lies directly on the eastern shore of the lake, and the municipality of Eisendorf is located on the southwestern shore. There are swimming areas in both Eisendorf and Langwedel.
In its western part, the lake flows into the Wardersee.
It is a calcareous, unstratified lake with a large catchment area.
The lake is a glacial channel lake dating back to the Weichselian glaciation. It forms part of a so-called glacial channel with the Pohlsee to the north and the Borgdorfer See to the south.
The lake's name derives from a Low German field name, specifically from the broom (Low German: Bram), which was a characteristic plant of the heathland in earlier times.
The lake is part of the Westensee Nature Park, a landscape area designated primarily for recreational use in the Schleswig-Holstein Landscape Plan.
Therefore, the lake's shores are home to many holiday homes, campsites, and the youth recreation centers (Jugendheim/Zeltplatz Brahmsee and Waldheim am Brahmsee).
Until the 1990s, the lake was used for commercial fishing. Today, it is used solely as a fishing spot by recreational anglers. Brahmsee became famous through former German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt, who invited many guests from international politics and business to his weekend home there. The lake is privately owned. Navigation and fishing are only permitted to residents who have purchased a permit from the owner.
