The Eberswalde City Lock is the oldest lock in Germany still in operation. It was built in 1831 and renovated in 2001 in accordance with historic preservation regulations. The original steel and wooden lock gates were reworked and reinstalled. The lock is a listed technical monument and part of the historic lock system on the Finow Canal. A boat dock is located directly at the lock. The terraced waterfront promenade invites you to take a break near the historic old town center.

The Eberswalde town lock is the oldest lock in Germany that is still in operation. It was built in 1831. In 2001 it was renovated in accordance with the requirements of a listed building. The original lock gates made of steel and wood were reworked and reinstalled. The lock is a technical monument and part of the historic lock system in the Finow Canal. It is a wonderful place to cycle along the Finow Canal to Niederfinow.

A zoo that sets standards. Integrated into the existing forest, using natural features such as hills and valleys. Wonderfully large enclosures. Observation platforms that allow a view into various enclosures. 7 (seven) play and educational areas in all imaginable sizes are excellent.

Eberswalde's main train station is in the western part of the city. From here you (and your bike) can easily get to the capital Berlin by regional train. The journey only takes about 30 minutes. Eberswalde is also ideal as a starting point for bike tours in the surrounding area. And if you want to tour without a bike, there is also a parking garage for your bike here.
