Kloster Lehnin – day trip to the famous Cistercian Abbey

The imposing Cistercian Monastery built in 1180 established Kloster Lehnin's name far beyond regional boundaries. The abbey plays host to the Lehniner Sommermusiken concert series every year.

Romantic Emster Kanal

If you turn off the Havel River shortly before Brandenburg an der Havel and enter the Emster Kanal, you will reach Kloster Lehnin after a turbulent and romantic boat ride of about 15 kilometres. The Emster Kanal can only be used by non-motorised boats and small, shallow-draft motorboats.

Sculpture Park Klostersee Lake

Outdoor adventures

If you feel like having a refreshing dip on a hot summer day, go and visit the nice bathing beach at Lehnin's Klostersee Lake. The Gästehaus am Klostersee guesthouse is right next door. Its sculpture park is well worth a visit.
