The name Heidesee is derived from the nearby Dölauer Heide forest area, on the southern edge of which the lake is located. The lake is also known as Bruchfeldsee and is anthropogenic.
The Heidesee can be described as the centre of the former mine field near Nietleben. Since the 18th century, lignite has been extracted here, first in open-cast mining, later in underground mining. The lignite, which is relatively high here, was mined in underground mines close to the surface. In later times, this led to collapses and subsidence of the terrain. This is probably where the name Bruchfeld, or Bruchfeldsee, comes from.
