The Franconian Lake District lies south-west of Nuremberg in northern Bavaria, Germany. It was created as a result of one of Germany's largest and was completed by the flooding of the Großer Brombachsee (" Great Brombach Lake") in 2000. The lakes of , Brombachsee, Rothsee, Dennenloher See and Hahnenkammsee together form a lake district which is equal in size and infrastructure to the Upper Bavarian Lake District: the Altmühlsee, for example, is the same size as the Königssee, and the Große Brombachsee has the same area as the Tegernsee.

dbo:abstract
  • Das Fränkische Seenland ist ein Gebiet mit künstlich angelegten Seen in Bayern, knapp 50 km südwestlich von Nürnberg im Regierungsbezirk Mittelfranken. Anfangs war der Begriff Neues Fränkisches Seenland in Gebrauch. Die Seen entstanden im Wesentlichen mit der Donau-Main-Überleitung, die angelegt wurde, um die Wasserverteilung zwischen dem wasserreichen Süd- und dem wasserarmen Nordbayern auszugleichen; das erfolgt durch die Überleitung von Wasser aus dem Altmühl- und Donautal über die Europäische Hauptwasserscheide in das Regnitz-Main-Gebiet. Auch für den Tourismus in der Region ist das Gebiet sehr bedeutsam. (de)
  • The Franconian Lake District lies south-west of Nuremberg in northern Bavaria, Germany. It was created as a result of one of Germany's largest and was completed by the flooding of the Großer Brombachsee (" Great Brombach Lake") in 2000. The lakes of , Brombachsee, Rothsee, Dennenloher See and Hahnenkammsee together form a lake district which is equal in size and infrastructure to the Upper Bavarian Lake District: the Altmühlsee, for example, is the same size as the Königssee, and the Große Brombachsee has the same area as the Tegernsee. The biggest lake in the district is the Brombach Lake. The Great Brombach Lake is a storage reservoir, about 12.7 square kilometres, in area. With about 17.5 kilometres of shoreline, it is bigger than the Tegernsee and it reaches a maximum depth of about 32 metres. The picturesque Little Brombach Lake is located in the Brombach and Igelsbach valley. Approximately 2.5 square kilometres in size, the lake is used for swimming, surfing, sailing, fishing, and boating. Europe's largest trimaran passenger ship, the MS Brombachsee, crosses the lake daily as part of a regular service. The shoreline is unspoiled and there are and hiking trails around the lake. The Altmühlsee, situated in the broad valley of the Altmühl, nestles between little villages and meadows. It was created as the first lake in the lake district and has a length of 4 km and an area of roughly 4.5 km2. There is a boat, the Gunzenhausen, which provides passenger services across the lake. The Rothsee, which is 2.2 km2 in area, is divided into an economic area and a swimming area. Surfing and sailing is possible on most of the lake. In its northwestern corner is an extensive nature reserve. The Rothsee has three recreational areas. (en)
