Märkisch Buchholz overflow weir

Highlight • Structure

listed, bridges a height difference of 5.5 meters between the upper and lower water. The weir opening is 12 meters wide, the double contactor 2 meters wide. The maximum permissible water drainage is 35 m³ / s. To allow eels to pass the weir, the city built an eel ladder as an ascent and an eel tube as a descent. To promote tourism, an electric boat tug continued to be built.

Dahme Umflutkanal Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

This paved road leads directly along the Dahme Umflutkanal. Until then, it was a good alternative to the Hofjagdweg on the country road. However, the way from Neuköthen becomes sandy all the way back to the road!

Krausnick Timber-Framed Church

Highlight • Religious Site

The village church of Krausnick is the evangelical church in the village of Krausnick in Brandenburg, which belongs to the municipality of Krausnick-Groß Wasserburg. It belongs to the Evangelical parish Krausnick-Neu Schadow in the Lower Lusatia church district of the Evangelical Church Berlin-Brandenburg-Silesian Upper Lusatia.
The church is known for its unusual Greek cross plan. It was built as a half-timbered building between 1726 and 1728 on an elevation north of the village. The model was the first Luisenstadt Church in Berlin built by Martin Grünberg. The client was Friedrich Erdmann von Oppen. Entrances to the church were created on the eastern, southern and northern transepts. A patronal lodge was built in the southern arm. In this area, the windows are laid out on two levels. The other windows are designed as flat arches and begin at the level of the gallery. The church is covered by a hipped roof. In the center of the cross rises an octagonal tower clad in planks, with a lantern and a curved dome. There is a clock on the tower. (Wikipedia)
