The Spreewaldhafen, which is located in the center of Burg (Spreewald), is worth a detour. Many boat trips to the Spreewald start from here. There are also very good places to stop for cyclists on the shore.

Bismarck Tower, Burg (Spreewald)

Highlight • Monument

About one kilometer northeast of Burg in Spreewald, the historically interesting Schlossberg rises 9 meters above the plain. At this point, a 27-meter-high tower was built in the years 1915-1917.

Thus, a lookout tower was created, which allows a wide view over the unique landscape of the Burger Spreewald. On the other hand, this building is a testimony of the Bismarck Memorial Movement, which left its mark on the whole of Germany after the death of the first German Chancellor Otto von Bismarck in 1898.

The tower experienced a changeful history until today. By the beginning of World War II, thousands of visitors were climbing the tower; during the war he served as the observation point of the Luftwaffe; In 1951 it was renamed the "Tower of Youth", since autumn 1990 the tower is called Bismarckturm again.

Over 26 steps leads to the first platform, 85 further steps lead to the second platform. If you want to reach the top, you can reach the octagonal tower via a narrow spiral staircase.
Meanwhile, numerous events take place against the backdrop of the Bismarck tower. The "Night of Pumpkin Ghosts" in October or the "Spreewald Sagennacht" on Whitsun weekend are just some of them.

Bismarck Tower, Burg (Spreewald)

Highlight • Monument

The Bismarck Tower was built in 1915 in honor of the first German Chancellor, Otto von Bismarck. The 28 meter high tower can be climbed and you can enjoy a wonderful view - on a clear day even as far as Berlin. In the Bismarckschenke located southwest of the tower you can treat yourself to a little refreshment.

Cycling along the Nordumfluter is an absolute pleasure. However, the cycle path is not particularly wide, so it can quickly become tight when there is oncoming traffic.
