    Interesting place. The first bridgehead of the "Red Army" was here in January 1945.
    The battle for Kienitz lasted 76 days and 80 percent of the buildings were destroyed.

      The memorial stele on Fährstrasse, the former bridgehead on the Oder, is part of the monument ensemble in Kienitz along with the tank monument and the monuments “First World War” and “The Victims 1939-1945”. The "stele" was inaugurated on November 5th, 1987 and symbolizes the bridgeheads of the Red Army that crossed the Oder on January 31st, 1945. Illustrations showing the Kienitz region as well as a saying from the famous GDR film director Konrad Wolf were engraved on it.
