During the work, engineers noticed that the geographical center of Europe could be located somewhere nearby. Soon, Viennese scientists confirmed this assumption with careful calculations. The place was marked by a modest concrete stele with a solemn inscription in Latin: “Permanent exact eternal place...”

According to one of them, it came from the tears of the beautiful Sini, mourning her deceased lover Vir, according to another legend - from the tears of the shepherd Ivan, separated from his homeland. In fact, the lake was formed about ten thousand years ago, during the post-glacial period, as a result of a large landslide caused by an earthquake.

The lake is surrounded by mountains on which ancient spruce and fir trees grow. Synevyr simply amazes with its magnificence, especially if you look at it from Mount Ozernaya. Then the second name of Synevyr becomes clear - Sea Eye.

In 1989, Synevyr National Park was created in the area surrounding the lake. Hunting is prohibited on its territory, and fishing is prohibited in the lake, although rare species of fish such as rainbow, lake and brook trout, as well as minnow, are found there.
