I always find it interesting how such places have developed historically. As a foreigner, it is always good to have such information boards

The region on the Spree
A wooden bridge on the Fluth existed before 1669, it was renewed in 1855 and rebuilt as a mas-sive bridge due to the canal widening in 1890. During World War II, the bridge was blown up by German soldiers and it was not until 2001 that the current wooden bridge was built in a new location. It connects the flood meadows with the meadows from the Spreebogen to Lake Kersdorf, which were called Rehhagen. Only with the construction of the new Friedrich Wilhelm Canal in 1889 and the Kersdorf lock is the Spree straightened and bridged through the lock. More than 100 Ka-nalarbeiter lived here temporarily. In 1937, a new school was built on the Rehhagen, as today's projectiles to the Rehhagen.
In 1588, a Frankfurt removal site on Lake Kersdorf was approved. Goods that came from the Spree were transferred to horse-drawn carriages and transported to Frankfurt (Oder). People settled. The restaurant of the Wilhelms- or Fluth Krug on the Spree was already marked in old maps of the 16th century. In 1894, the old Fluth Krug was demolished and a new forester's house was built. In 1969, the forester's house was taken over by the state security of the GDR and the site was cordoned off. Secretly, the RAF dropout from the FRG was retrained and given a new identity. With German reunification, the object was sold in 1990. It housed the association the Naturefriends Brandenburg e.V., after which it became a private inn with a pension
