Lake Balkai in Siberia is the world's deepest at about 1600m, I think Europe's is Lake Mjosa in Norway at about 500m.

Lake Como (Lago di Como in Italian, also known as Lario) is a lake of glacial origin in Lombardy, Italy. It has an area of 146 km², making it the third largest lake in Italy, after Lake Garda and Lake Maggiore. At 410 m deep it is one of the deepest lakes in Europe and the bottom of the lake is more than 200 m below sea-level.
The deepest lake in the world is on the border of Europe and Asia, so can be classed in both places:
The Caspian Sea is a landlocked endorheic sea of Eurasia between Asia and Europe. It is the world's largest inland body of water. It has a surface area of 371,000 km² (143,000 sq. mi.), and a maximum depth of about 980m (3200 ft). Thus it has characteristics common to both seas and lakes. It is often listed as the world's largest lake, though it is not a freshwater one. It has a salinity of approximately 1.2%, about a third the salinity of sea water.
Hope this is enough to get you started on your homework!

I reckon it might be Lake Ladoga in Russia, but then again I don't know if Russia is really part of Europe? Think it is though.
