Observation deck "Anna Mine"

The Anna mine is the former Anna amber mining mine, which was founded in 1883 in the village of Pilmniken (now the village of Yantarny, Kaliningrad region).

Since 1922, due to unprofitability, work began on the conservation of the mine, and soon the production was closed.

Currently, only small remnants remain of the Anna mine, including the remains of the Anna mine retaining wall, above which there is a small observation deck "Anna Mine".

The observation deck is a small piece of soil.

The site offers panoramic views of the coast, quarries, part of the beach strip, the Baltic Sea and the monument to the victims of the Holocaust.

The observation deck is located near the northern border of the village of Yantarny. The approach is from Sovetskaya Street. More about the observation deck "Anna Mine"...

The beach of Lake Sinyavinsky

Lake Sinyavinskoye (Amber Lake) is a freshwater reservoir that was formed on the site of the former Walter quarry for the extraction of amber. The extraction of amber in the quarry was carried out by an open method in the period from 1913 to 1972.

When the amber-bearing rocks in the quarry were worked out, the quarry was declared unprofitable and closed, after which it was filled with spring and groundwater, resulting in a pond (lake).

Lake Sinyavinskoe is located between the villages of Yantarny and Sinyavino.

From the side of the village of Yantarny near the shore of the lake there is a small beach - the beach of Sinyavinsky lake (the beach of Lake Yantarny).

From the hill near the beach, near the recreation center "Pearl", there are views of the beach and the lake itself. More about the beach of Lake Sinyavinsky...
