Outlet of the Bautzen Dam

Highlight • Structure

The outlet structure at the Bautzen Dam is located on the northwest shore of the reservoir and at the southern dam of the two dams. The cycle path curves around the outlet structure and then along the base of the dam. The reservoir dams the Spree River, which flows from here to Berlin. The dam is accessible by bicycle during opening hours; there are steps on the south side.

Swimming beach at Bautzen Reservoir

Highlight • Beach

The Bautzen Reservoir is fed by the Spree River and was dammed during the GDR era. The reason was the Boxberg power plant, which needed water for cooling. This beautiful reservoir was created and was already a popular local recreation area back then. You can still enjoy the beautiful sandy beach, which was also built during the GDR era. Here, you can swim in the lake and lie comfortably on the sand or grass. A chilled-out beach bar by the lake provides refreshments.
