Babelsberg Park

Highlight • Natural

Nice park. You can spend a lot of time in it or just go through it. The many structures and lines of sight to the structures are interesting. That gives a lot of great effects. There is also an official swimming area below on the Havel. There are also bathing in many other places.

View of the Glienicke Bridge from Babelsberg Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Glienicke Bridge connects Berlin with Brandenburg and was known in the Cold War as a place of exchange for agents, since here West Berlin bordered on the GDR.

Even without any historical background, the view from the park over the lake (deep lake and Glienicker See) is beautiful!

View of Glienicke Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

From Babelsberg Park you always have a beautiful view of the Glienicke Bridge. 👍
The different shades of green of the paint on the two halves of the bridge reveal the border between Brandenburg and Berlin. 😉

Lake Griebnitz

Highlight • Lake

One of the most beautiful riverside paths in Potsdam runs along the Griebnitzsee at the foot of the Neubabelsberg villa colony. The former border strip stretches from Babelsberg Park to the (West) Berlin city limits in Stubenrauchstrasse. The character of the design and the legal status are still being debated. Some areas of the trail are currently closed to public use by residents until further notice. And it will probably stay that way.

Griebnitzsee

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

This area of the Teltow Canal is surrounded by nature and very worthwhile. There is hardly any sign of the city. With a bit of luck, you can observe several cranes up close. There are numerous ways to combine the canal path with alternative hiking routes and sights. The path is easy and well-walkable, but not wheelchair accessible.

Griebnitz Canal

Highlight • River

The Griebnitz Canal was created in 1901-1906 at the same time as the Teltow Canal by connecting individual existing lakes. It should serve tourism and improve the water quality of the lakes.

Stahnsdorf Southwest Cemetery

Highlight • Historical Site

The Südwestkirchhof Stahnsdorf Cemetery is undoubtedly one of the most outstanding international burial sites, alongside Venice's San Michele Island, Vienna's Central Cemetery, and Père Lachaise in Paris. There are many famous gravesites here. Recently, filming for the next season of Babylon took place here.

You should definitely take a guided tour.

Norwegian-style cemetery chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

The cemetery chapel was inaugurated on March 28, 1909 after a construction phase that only lasted 4 months.
On October 13, 1908, the Royal Consistory of the Province of Brandenburg set the opening of the churchyard for April 1, 1909 - of course the chapel should also be put into operation on this date.
Its builder, the building inspector Gustav Werner, modeled it on the Norwegian stave churches, from which it differs significantly. In contrast to the Nordic chapels, the cemetery chapel was not built in vertical stick construction, but in horizontal block construction.
