Bike Touring Highlight
In the early morning hours of January 31, 1945, advance units of the Soviet 5th Shock Army and 2nd Guards Tank Army crossed the Oder and formed a bridgehead, which they continued to expand. Kienitz was thus the first place in the territory of the later GDR, which was occupied by Soviet troops. In 1970, a memorial with a T-34 tank was erected in the village on the occasion of this event.
