In 1840, the lake was drained. It was allowed to refill after a fire in 1902.[1]
The lake is mainly used for fish breeding; bathing is prohibited due to the small size. Sometimes the lake is plagued by algae. There are high reeds along the shore often hiding fen puddles which act like quicksand.[citation needed]
