Map of Ocna Şugatag: Mihaly lake

Lake Mihályi, or Erzsébet, as some people know, as the name appeared after the collapse of the Erzsébet mine, opened in 1777. As water was the biggest problem of all the cavities in the area, including the Erzsébet mine was just flooded 70 years since its opening, and in 1868 it collapsed. The traces of the event here are the most visible. The pebble-shaped lake has banks that resemble a crater, but the banks are breaking even today.
