Beach at Stolsko Lake

Highlight • Beach

It is a very interesting water reservoir, not only because of its natural values, but also because of its location right next to the palace and park complex in Stoła. The shores of the lake are mostly covered with reeds, riparian forests and swamps. This is a reservoir where you can successfully fish. The fishing spot is rather shallow, 1-2 m deep and accessible by floating means. You can catch here mainly pike and tench, but also crucian carp, perch, eel, bream and roach. The lake can be reached by a road made of concrete slabs. On one of its shores there is a small recreational and beach area with a beach, and small boats are moored nearby. An interesting fact is that fragments of the so-called American bomber were found in the tank. "Flying Fortress", which was shot down by the Germans in the spring of 1944.

A newly discovered memorial plaque on a boulder. It commemorates the crash of an American B17 bomber, which since June 1944 rested at the bottom of Lake Stolsko.
American B-17 bombers were called "Flying Fortresses". The machine shot down near Szczecin (No. 44-6117) was less than two months old at the time. It left the Douglas factory in Tulsa on May 6, 1944. A month later, it was at an RAF base near London, and on June 21, it was already lying at the bottom of Lake Stolsko.
The target of bomber 44-6117's last flight was Berlin. Shortly after 9:00 AM, the formation it was part of was attacked by fighter planes. Hit in the left wing and the rear stabilizer, the plane began to fall. All crew members managed to jump from the burning machine. Amos Frank Estrada had the worst luck, most likely being hit by projectiles from a fighter plane's cannon as he was already descending by parachute.
For several years after the war, the bomber's wing protruded above the lake's surface. Later, the machine sank into the marshy silt. More intensive research into the wreck and its history began in the 21st century. As a result, in 2019, relatives of Irvin Howard Lewis, one of the crew members, came to Stolac.
