It was once the largest brown coal power plant in the GDR with more than 4,000 employees. The Boxberg power plant has been in operation for more than half a century and has been partially shut down, modernized and rebuilt.

Beautiful view that shows many contrasts at a glance. On the one hand, the renaturalized Bärwalder Lake and the floating houses and on the other side, the still active coal-fired power station Boxberg O.L.

If you like industrial culture and photographing it, you will find a great subject here with a good camera.

Good view of all 4 works of the lignite power plant. There is a paid parking lot, a snack bar, a campsite, floating houses, a lighthouse, a port. The asphalt circular path goes past here.
