2-Lake Tour

Impressive steel artworks line the path from the Gräfenhainichen city balcony towards Ferropolis and Radis. Since 2004, students of the Ferropolis School in Gräfenhainichen have been designing and creating these sculptures in art class. Every year, the art trail is extended with new works. Another project by the Ferropolis students extends from the city balcony towards Radis. On 10 interesting information boards, the history trail recalls the former village of Gremmin, which had to give way to the lignite open-cast mine in 1982.

Children especially enjoy the playground in the city of iron. Here they can become excavator drivers themselves and romp on playground equipment modeled after former lignite mining machines.

Directly on the Gröberner Lake is now the See- und Waldresort Gröbern, where you can swim and fish. Stand-up paddling is also possible; bicycles, rowboats, canoes, and rafts can be rented. A large children's playground, a rock garden, and the wildlife enclosure at Seekate are available for young guests. Courses can be booked at the diving school by the lake.
