A small town worth seeing that is very idyllic due to its location on the Elde. It has a beautifully restored historic old town, a castle museum, the historic lift bridge, a port worth seeing and much more to offer. It is definitely worth taking a long stroll through the town.

It's a shame I wasn't able to see this century-old bridge in operation.

Steel lift bridge in the center of the old town of Plau am See. It goes over the Elde at the entrance to Plauer See.
