No discussion of the economy of Lusatia can be had without a significant review of the carp ponds that both surrounded the Battle of Bautzen in 1813 and have a significant role in the Lusatian economy in 2019. As Petre described in his Napoleon’s Last Campaign in Germany 1813, the carp ponds, of which there were many, could even delay or prohibit infantry from advancing.
