May 11, 2025,Wanderung Branitzer Park - Cottbusser Altstadt 11.05.2025

This tour through Cottbus was an interesting mix of nature, culture, and science along the Spree.

A stroll along the Spree offered a pleasant way to experience the city from a relaxed perspective.

Branitz Park boasts extensive landscaping. The artfully designed paths led through diverse scenery, past idyllic ponds and lush meadows.
