Laacher See, also known as Lake Laach or Laach Lake, is a volcanic crater lake with a diameter of 2 km in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, about 24 km northwest of Koblenz, 37 km south of Bonn, and 8 km west of Andernach. It is in the Eifel mountain range, and is part of the East Eifel volcanic field within the larger Volcanic Eifel. The lake was formed by a Plinian eruption approximately 13,000 years BP with a Volcanic Explosivity Index of 6, similar to the Pinatubo eruption of 1991.
