Harthsee

The smallest entry in the register at 65 hectares, with flooding completed in 1995 and recorded use as a bathing lake with gastronomy and a campsite. OpenStreetMap still tags the basin as a former lignite quarry, and permits rowing and canoeing while excluding motorboats and larger vessels. Lake directories list it at 04552 Borna, about five kilometres from the Bockwitzer See.
