Geography The Caputher See lies south of the Havel and is touched by the village of Caputh on its northern and western sides. The village is also the namesake for the lake. Due to the lowered groundwater level, a former drainage ditch from the Lienewitzsee to the Caputher See has dried up. In the north, the lake has a channel-like connection to the Havel that has also dried up (in 2018). Source Wikipedia
