シュタットゼーのおすすめランニングルート

Those who walk along the path near the shore will enjoy many beautiful views of the lake, but few good opportunities for swimming. Here is one of the best. A large meadow, benches, and two excellent entrances into the water. Just above the embankment, you can see a ruined building of the former Lychen pulmonary sanatorium rising above the trees. But the fully fenced-in grounds are no longer a lost place. Many of the buildings have been stylishly renovated, creating a first-class park-like property. There are exclusive apartments and even vacation apartments available for short-term rentals!

Unfortunately it's too late in the year to go swimming, but it would be great in the summer.

The town of Lychen was founded as early as 1248. Lychen has a Baroque town hall on the market square, originally built on an older town hall site. Throughout its history, it has experienced several fires: in 1633, a fire caused great devastation, and in 1732, the town hall burned down again to its foundations. In 1748, it was rebuilt as a two-story, Baroque plastered building with a tower and mansard roof. In 1817, the town hall received a clock. In 1945, it partially burned down again. The final reconstruction took place in 1956/57, but without the tower and clock for cost reasons. In front of the town hall stands an oversized thumbtack, invented by Johann Kirsten in Lychen in 1903. The town hall now serves as the seat of the Lychen city administration and is centrally located on the market square and in the town center.

Of the original three gate towers, only parts of the Fürstenberger Gate and the Stargarder Gate remain today.

The lake is fed by a short stream from the Moderfitzsee and the Woblitz and drains into the Stolpsee via the Mühlenfließ / lock canal Himmelpfort.

The gate collapsed in the 18th century, and a previously existing moat was filled in. Only the gatehouse remained for some time to collect tolls. Further information is available on the information board in front.
