Huge surprise: Lower Franconia's largest lake filled up faster than expected. Lake Ellertshäuser has now returned to its normal water level at 334.5 meters above zero.
“The lake has its usual appearance again, as we know it,” emphasizes the Bad Kissingen water management office. Dragonflies and caddis lava have already settled again and reeds and reed are also growing back on the banks. The 60,000 strictly protected “large pond mussels” were also collected by hand in 2021 and brought to the Vorsee.
