シプカウのおすすめライド

素晴らしいサイクリングロードで、とてもよく進みます。比較的空いていたので幸運でした。夏は混雑することがあります。

Easy-to-ride cycle path between Lauchhammer and Kostebrau next to the L60 country road

Quiet road between Schwarzheide and Lauchhammer on weekends. Caution: Dangerous rails before Lauchhammer.

Memorial next to the bike path. It's very worrying how Jewish concentration camp victims locked in train cars could be forgotten for days.

In 1754, local judge Lehmann pushed through the construction of a church building "against the grumbling of a few stubborn people." The old wooden chapel in the plague cemetery outside the village (to the right of the former town hall) was in such a deplorable condition that "dogs and swine could pass under the threshold." We do not know the builder. It is highly likely that local craftsmen erected the church. Before this construction project began, there were apparently many disagreements among the residents at the time, so that even the building materials that had already been brought in were quickly sold. The church itself is a simple half-timbered structure with sparing Baroque elements. It is said to have seated 250 people. This number may have corresponded to the population of the village at the time. The communion vessels, chalice, two jugs, and two plates, as well as the candlesticks and baptismal font, all made of Zins, are still in use today. The interior of the chapel is quite simple. To save space, the pulpit was placed directly above the altar. There's nothing pompous about it, and that's precisely what makes it so beautiful. It's also noteworthy that only the morning and sunny sides have windows, while the other two sides of the nave remain windowless. In 1921, the church in Zschornegosda was thoroughly renovated. It also received a new roof, pews were repaired, and the church was modernized by replacing the old, inadequate lighting with electric light. At the same time, a large painted plaque of honor, listing the names and dates of the 74 Zschornegosda soldiers who died in World War I, was hung. A special purchase was a large pedal harmonium, as an organ was too expensive. The Luther Memorial in Zschornegosda was dedicated on December 3, 1933 (the first Sunday of Advent). Afterward, Luther's name was transferred to the village church. The boulder from an open-cast mine is approximately 1.20 m high and 1.35 m wide. The applied bronze plates are from the Lauchhammer art foundry. The upper circular one bears a relief of Martin Luther's head. The lower rectangular one bears the inscription: "In memory of Martin Luther * 1483 - 1546." The occasion was the 450th anniversary of Martin Luther's birth. Source: Schwarzheide Local Chronicle

A very beautiful square with a wonderful pharmacy. A lot of renovation work has gone into it.

One complaint is that there are no restrooms at the new beach, and the path to the harbor is a long way away. Perhaps a designated area for dogs should be considered! Despite sufficient trash receptacles, some people don't understand their purpose. What a shame!

This little oasis has a great beach, with several nearby pitches for all types of campers. It's not as crowded as at well-known large campgrounds. Even as a cyclist, the spot is perfect for a cool dip in the middle of summer...
