View of Lake Weißensee from Techendorf Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

The only bridge over the lake. It connects the two banks and serves as a pier for the excursion boats. At the same time, it marks the approximate dividing line between the eastern, natural and the western, touristic-sustainable part.
