An extensive ditch system west of the Panke is still managed and regulated by the state of Berlin today. There are many hectares of allotment gardens around Blankenburg, through which rainwater drainage ditches run in old routes. The Blankenburg carp ponds, which are affected by the Panke, are located here. They are managed by the Berlin State Anglers Association. On the northern bank of these ponds, the Malchower Fließgraben brings water from a whole system of ditches from the Malchower See to the left of the Panke. This ditch system east of the Panke includes the Schmöckpfuhlgraben, which today brings water from the Heinersdorf freight station site and the allotment gardens northeast of Heinersdorf.

A very nice place, but it's full of mosquitoes. Therefore spray thoroughly with Autan and preferably wear long trousers.

Just 30 years ago, the area of today's Moorlinse was dry. There was already a sink, but water only began to collect there in 1996. The reason for this was that the Buch waterworks reduced its production, so that layer water collected. In addition, water drainage pipes in this area were becoming more and more silted up and clogged, meaning that water could no longer drain away. With the first water in the bog lens came the first amphibians and birds. The higher the water rose, the more biodiversity increased. Toads, frogs, lizards and grass snakes live there today. Countless birds breed on the Moorlinse or rest there.

Many reptiles and amphibians cavort here in the low moor belonging to the Panke. The round shape gave the name Moorlinse.

A true bird paradise. However, there is a construction plan that provides for numerous apartments to be built around the moor meadow. The children and youth projects Moorwiese, Waldkind and Wilde Welt are to be relocated. You can find more information under the following link > http://www.mooor.de/moorwiese/ueber-uns/bebauungsplan-am-sandhaus-aktuell/

@Frank from Hönow is probably right. I found the following article about this: https://www.maz-online.de/Lokales/Oberhavel/Muehlenbecker-Land/Schloss-Dammsmuehle-Viel-Zusracht-fuer-Restaurant-und-Hotelprojekt. Since I like to do a lost place tour, I'm a little bit divided. But all that stops the decay is ok
