Although fir trees don't grow here, the spruce, the "classic Christmas tree," is native and forms natural stands in a few places within the nature park, providing habitat for specialized bird species such as the common crossbill, bullfinch, siskin, and two species of goldcrest. A particular treasure of the nearby pond landscape of Groß Mehßow is the abundance of freshwater mussels, which serve as a nursery for the protected bitterling, while the bitterling, in turn, contributes to the mussels' dispersal. Together with bogs, swamp forests, springs, and near-natural streams, a diverse mosaic of habitats is created here, where waterfowl, amphibians, and, with a bit of luck, even the European otter can be observed.

There is a plaque here that commemorates it.

The late 19th century hit “We are the singers of Finsterwalde” and the Finsterwalder Liederfest named after this title also made the city known nationwide. The additional name “Sängerstadt” has therefore been allowed to be used in official correspondence since 2009. Since May 16, 2013, with the approval of the Brandenburg Ministry of the Interior, the city has officially used this additional designation, including on the town entrance signs. This bronze statue commemorates the singers. www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finsterwalde

Finsterwalde station was built during the construction of the Halle-Sorau-Guben Railway and is now a station on the electrified rail line from Leipzig/Halle to Cottbus. Regional Express lines RE 8 Berlin Hbf–Finsterwalde (extra trains Monday to Friday) and RE 10 Leipzig–Frankfurt (Oder), as well as regional train line RB 43 Falkenberg (Elster)–Frankfurt (Oder), stop there. From here, the lines to Crinitz–Luckau (closed in 1968) and Schipkau (closed in 1967) branched off. The latter was operated by the Schipkau-Finsterwalde Railway until 1949. Another connection existed with the nearby town of Großräschen until 2006. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finsterwalde
