Amtssee (Amts Lake)

Highlight • Lake

The Amtssee is a small lake in the Barnim district of Brandenburg. It is located in the municipality of Chorin and is known for the Chorin Monastery, which was built by monks of the Cistercian Order on its southern shore in the 13th century.

Chorin Monastery

Highlight • Historical Site

An exhibition on the history of the Chorin Monastery is located in the basement vaults of the west wing. By means of various display boards and other exhibits, one can look back very clearly in the approximately 750-year history of the monastery. Particularly exciting is the relief map with the other buildings that belonged to the surroundings of the monastery. A cross illuminated in the background and a spade illustrate the life's work of the Cistercian monks: "pray and work".

Nettelgraben

Highlight • River

The Nettelgraben in the Schorfheide-Chorin Biosphere Reserve is a true biotope for reptiles and amphibians.

The approximately five kilometer long moat was dug by the monks in the 13th century to supply water to the Chorin monastery. At that time it connected the Choriner See with the higher situated White Lake.
