The best dog-friendly hikes and walks around Luckenwalde

The two lakes south of Frankenfelde were created in 2002 during the dredging as a compensatory and replacement measure for the construction of the new B 101.

Beautifully idyllic gravel pit lake located on the former military training area. Pure relaxation and not far away is the small gravel pit lake, which almost reaches the roadside, but is hardly recognizable. The two lakes south of Frankenfelde were created in 2002 during dredging as a compensatory and replacement measure for the construction of the new B 101.

The place was first mentioned in 1285 as Frankenforde. However, it is not due to a larger watercourse to be overcome. So it seems to be a question of a mere transfer of names, perhaps also an indication of the origin of the settlers who are assigned here. This is also indicated by the name of the directly neighboring Frankenfelde. The church is a simple rectangular hall. Towards the end of the 17th century, the slate roof tower with a rider was added to the west. The vestibule, also in the west, followed at the end of the 19th century. The actual building was constructed from relatively regular layers of split fieldstone, which alternated with small gussets. The masonry of the east gable, on the other hand, is irregular. All side windows were enlarged in stitch arches. Only on the south side is a small high original window visible. The two original entrances to the church are also located here: the parish portal and the priest's gate. Both with pointed arches of brick and both walled. In the east, the openings of the three-window group were provided with plaster frames like the other windows, but they seem to have remained unchanged. Due to the fact that the masonry work was no longer too careful and brick was used on the portal walls, the building could probably be dated to the first half of the 14th century. The east gable was rebuilt, perhaps after a catastrophic fire, as the irregular masonry shows. The main change, the conversion of windows and portals, took place in the 18th century, the period from which the interior also dates.

The small quarry lake is right on the path, but can hardly be seen. 200 m away you can't miss the quarry pond, which is also often visited by dog owners.

The evangelical village church is a stone church from the second half of the 13th century in Frankenfelde, a district of the town of Luckenwalde in the district of Teltow-Fläming. The building was built in the second half of the 13th century. The upper tower floor was built in the 15th century and was given a hipped roof with a half-timbered turret in the 18th century. The building was severely damaged in the Thirty Years' War. Only the polygonal pulpit basket from around 1700 has survived from the original pulpit altar. On the east wall is a Gothic sacramental niche behind a door from the construction period. On the gallery stands an organ with a neoclassical prospectus, which Johann Friedrich Turley created in 1824 as his first work. The instrument was restored in 2020 by the Berlin organ building workshop Karl Schuke and restored to its original condition. Other church furnishings include a pair of brass candlesticks made in the early 16th century. Three bells hang in the tower.
