The Weinfelder Maar, also called the Totenmaar, is a maar around two kilometres southeast of the town of Daun in the Eifel Mountains, in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate.
The maar lake was formed about 10,500 years ago by a volcanic steam explosion and is around 525 metres long, 375 metres wide and 51 metres deep. It has a surface area of about 16.8 hectares. The maar lies at a height of 483.5 m above sea level . The embankment surrounding the lake is made from tuff and is higher in the west and south than in the north and east. Along the course of this bank is the Mäuseberg and the Maarkreuz . The lake region is now a nature reserve and bathing in the lake is forbidden.
