From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Ville-Seen-Platte

Roughly translated, this would be the 'plateau of seas in the Ville'.

In the vicinity of Erftstadt, Brühl and Hürth many small and large lakes have been created due to coal mining. The reforestation of the area was begun in 1920 by planting beech, pine, oak and larch trees. Today, there are about forty lakes that have sprung from the mining operations.
