Joy of Life Fountain at Bad Saarow Station Square

Highlight • Monument

Together with the old train station ensemble and the more than 100-year-old train station, the beautifully landscaped train station square in Bad Saarow (6 km south of Fürstenwalde, 30 km south-east of Berlin) is an eye-catcher.
The “Joy of Life” fountain designed in 1977 by the sculptor and graphic artist Hans Eickworth (1930-1995) is an eye-catcher on the square.

Fontane Park, Bad Saarow

Highlight • Natural Monument

To mark the 200th anniversary of Fontane's birthday in 2019, sixteen panels with quotes from Theodor Fontane were erected on the peninsula covered in deciduous forest. The Berlin writer and journalist passed by here on his Easter hike through the Mark Brandenburg in 1881. The quotes were cut into panels made of Corten steel using laser technology and screwed onto concrete slabs. The highlight is a steel telescope entitled "View into Nothingness". It refers to a sentence by Fontane from 1881: "There is nothing in Saarow, I know that, and here in Pieskow there is nothing at all."

The Egg House

Highlight • Monument

The "Egg House" from the late 1920s is a building sculpture by the Berlin architect Fritz Glantz. The former country house of the Jewish banker family Zeidler, also called "Villa Parolo" after the first names of the owners, stands on slightly rising ground with a wide view of the lake. The building was constructed using timber frame construction on the imposing base floor, which is clad in field stones. The front of the house, which opens onto the lake shore, is correspondingly striking. The country house was originally a weekend house. Today it is used as a holiday home.

Promenade on Lake Scharmützelsee

Highlight • Trail

The perfect place for a leisurely stroll along the lake. If you then take a look at the old mansions on the waterfront, you'll feel like you're in the Hamptons on Long Island - even if some of the houses still look a little abandoned.

Kurfürstensteg Bad Saarow

Highlight • Bridge

The Kurfürstensteg is the extension of the Kurfürstenterrassen in the spa park out onto the Scharmützelsee. First through the reeds on the shore, then over the water, the almost seventy-meter-long footbridge leads onto the lake and offers impressive views.

Scharmützelsee

Highlight • Lake

The Scharmützelsee appears peaceful on this sunny late October day. Incidentally, it is not named after a brief military conflict, but rather takes its name from the Middle Low German corruption of the Old Sorbian word for buckthorn, Čremušn. Brandenburg's second largest lake is ten kilometers long, up to one and a half kilometers wide and a maximum of 29 meters deep.
