Schlatt, also called Flatt, is the Lower Saxon name for a heathland pond, an undrained body of water that is usually shallow, fed by surface water, and largely unaffected by groundwater. The water is held in place by a water retentive layer beneath it, and most Schlatts can dry out from time to time.
