Gazing across the Deepenhornteich, one might mistake it for a natural pond. But this tranquil body of water in Hamburg-Rahlstedt, Meiendorf, holds a secret. Deepenhornteich is a Rückhaltebecken, a retention basin. It plays a vital role in managing water flow from the Deepenhorngraben, the stream that both feeds and drains it. The Deepenhornteich isn’t just a pretty face. It’s a vital part of the local ecosystem, helping to prevent flooding and maintain the balance of nature. In the winter of 2021, a rather unusual sight greeted visitors to the Deepenhornteich. A fence, erected at a cost of €21,000, partially encircled the water. This wasn’t some artistic statement, but a practical measure. The fence served a purpose, to deter ice skaters and ensure their safety. During the warmer months, sections of the fence are removed, returning the Deepenhornteich to its more open and inviting state. This careful management ensures the Deepenhornteich can be enjoyed by all, while safeguarding against potential hazards.
