The Green Lake in Merzdorf. Information: Due to the growing overburden, clay extraction became increasingly difficult in the late 1950s, so the clay pit was flooded in the late 1960s, and the production of concrete elements began there simultaneously. The remaining body of water has a greenish hue and is therefore also known as the Green Lake. The "Agnes" and "Flora" clay pits were opened south of the village in 1892.

Nice bike lane well asphalted

A historic site after the extensive cession of land from Saxony to Prussia in 1815 following the resolutions of the Congress of Vienna. Contrary to original plans and expectations, Prussia did not receive all of Saxony, but only the northern part, which was partly added to the new province of Saxony. On the other hand, it achieved considerable territorial growth in the west, which is rich in raw materials.

the column is just in front of the Heideberg tower on the hiking trail and dates from the Saxon times. Station No. 11 (Strauch) is a first-order station of the triangular network of the Royal Saxon Triangulation. In the 19th century, the optical measuring devices were fixed on the monolith in order to locate other stations for surveying purposes. Most of these technical monuments are still preserved and as they all stand on hilltops they always offer a great view of Saxony as a destination. From this station the stations of the 1st order No. 1 (Ossling), No. 6 (Valtenberg), No. 7 (Porsberg), No. 10 Keulenberg, No. 12 (Baeyerhöhe), No. 18 (Collm), No. . 29 Buchberg, No. 30 (Großdobritz) No. 31 (Baselitz) No. 35 (Waida), as well as the base ends of the Großenhainer baseline No. 32 and 34 and the 2nd order stations No. 68 (Galgenberge), No. 69 (Schweinfuth), No. 70 (Jacobsthal) and No. . 71 (Glaubitz) targeted. This indicates a central importance of the measuring point on the northern edge of the triangular network. This elevation in the former Saxon-Prussian border area today offers a great panoramic view of the nearby Heideturm. Entry to the tower is free. The Royal Saxon Triangulation is still considered a technical masterpiece and was the most precise land survey in Europe in the 19th century.

the route leads along the former border between Saxony and Prussia, now Brandenburg and Saxony. There are still many former boundary stones along the way.
