Lake Geierswald, known as Lejnjanski jězor in Upper Sorbian, is an artificial lake. It is largely located in the Free State of Saxony to the northwest of Hoyerswerda and partly in Brandenburg. The villages of Geierswalde and Kleinkoschen, a district of Senftenberg, are located directly on the lake. It is the first lake in the future Lusatian chain of lakes to be used for tourism, after Lake Senftenberg, which was flooded in the 1970s. The remaining hole in the Koschen open-cast mine was flooded with water from the Black Elster. The last renovation work was completed in 2004. The lake was opened in 2006. The water content of the lake is 92 million cubic meters.
