Landeskroner pond

The Landeskroner Pond is a reservoir near Wilden, a district of the municipality of Wilnsdorf in the district of Siegen-Wittgenstein in North Rhine-Westphalia.

The pond is located at an elevation of 372.1 m, is about 230 m long, up to 70 m wide, and has a water surface area of just under 13,500 m². The pond is fed by the Wildebach, which flows in at the eastern end and flows out at the western end. However, the original course of the stream only coincides with the pond for about 200 m. The water remains cool even in summer due to the movement of the water. The pond has been a popular excursion destination in the summer for years. The Wilden Fishing Association as well as the DLRG Siegerland have a hut on the shore. The association also invites people to celebrate by the pond every year on May 1st. Since the 1960s, the federal highway 45 has crossed over the pond with a bridge at the eastern end.
