Anyone stopping by Lake Willischza – whether by bike, on a hike, or simply for a swim – will sooner or later pass by the Seehotel Burg. And that's not a bad idea. The large yellow building with a red roof may at first glance look like a cross between a day-trip restaurant and a conference hotel – but the impression is deceptive. Those who stop in will find honest cuisine, generous portions, and a seat with a view of the greenery – or even the lake itself. For cyclists, the Seehotel is a reliable address: There are bike racks, outdoor seating, restrooms (also for non-guests), and service that is friendly but not intrusive. The menu is down-to-earth – from fried potatoes to fish dishes to ice cream sundaes – everything your body could need after a tour. The rooms themselves are solid, the prices are moderate, and the location is ideal. And anyone sitting on the terrace in the early evening and watching the sunset over the lake will quickly realize: that's all you need right now.

The monastery church, also known as the "Wendish Church," is the oldest church in Cottbus and a significant example of Gothic brick architecture. Built between the 14th and 16th centuries, it commemorates the work of the Franciscan monks. Particularly famous is the gravestone of the city's founder, featuring a crab, today's heraldic animal of Cottbus.
