Here the Emster Canal flows under a blue bridge.

A wonderful old building that is certainly worth preserving.

It is worth taking a detour to the north to the Klostersee. The path is paved and ideal for wheelchair and walker users. At the end of the path you reach a jetty that is often used for fishing or swimming. From here you can see the lido, the rowing and sailing club and the Institute for Arts and Crafts.

The oldest monastery in the Margraviate of Brandenburg is the former Cistercian monastery of Lehnin. It was founded in 1180 by Margrave Otto I of Brandenburg. The buildings and the grounds are very impressive. There is also a museum here.

Beautiful view over Lake Netzen

One of the many legends and myths surrounding Lehnin Monastery is about its founding. Margrave Otto I of Brandenburg is said to have been separated from his companions while hunting in the forest here. After wandering around for a long time in the thicket, he sank exhausted under an oak tree and fell into a deep sleep. He dreamed that a deer was attacking him. He tried to defend himself against him with his hunting spear. When that failed, in his fear he cried out for help in Christ's name. Then the animal disappeared. When he awoke, his companions stood before him. When he told them about his dream, they said that it was certainly the devil in the form of a deer that harassed him and only disappeared when he called on the name of Christ. Margrave Otto decided to build a monastery on this site "so that the infernal enemy could be driven out of these areas through the prayers of pious men."
