The Bad Saarow train station is a really beautiful and well-kept train station in the well-known spa town on the Scharmutzelsee.

Scharmützelsee

Highlight • Lake

The Scharmützelsee appears peaceful on this sunny late October day. Incidentally, it is not named after a brief military conflict, but rather takes its name from the Middle Low German corruption of the Old Sorbian word for buckthorn, Čremušn. Brandenburg's second largest lake is ten kilometers long, up to one and a half kilometers wide and a maximum of 29 meters deep.

View of the Scharmützelsee

Highlight • Viewpoint

With this view, you can understand why the Berlin poet Theodor Fontane called the lake "Märkisches Meer" when he visited in 1881. A name that is still used in tourism advertising today.

Kurfürstensteg Bad Saarow

Highlight • Bridge

The Kurfürstensteg is the extension of the Kurfürstenterrassen in the spa park out onto the Scharmützelsee. First through the reeds on the shore, then over the water, the almost seventy-meter-long footbridge leads onto the lake and offers impressive views.

The perfect place for a leisurely stroll along the lake. If you then take a look at the old mansions on the waterfront, you'll feel like you're in the Hamptons on Long Island - even if some of the houses still look a little abandoned.

Scharmützelsee

Highlight • Lake

The lido in the middle, today called "SeeBadSaarow", offers bathing fun in Scharmützelsee from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. when the weather is good. There is a lawn, sandy beach, toilets and a range of restaurants. Loungers and chairs can be rented from the operator. The parking fees for the car park directly at the lido can only be paid with an EC card. During the bathing season, the "Nobelscharf" beach pavilion is also open daily from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The Brandenburg Ministry of the Interior and Municipal Affairs (MIK) has classified the lido as "microbiologically unobjectionable" based on data from the past four bathing seasons.

The Egg House

Highlight • Monument

The "Egg House" from the late 1920s is a building sculpture by the Berlin architect Fritz Glantz. The former country house of the Jewish banker family Zeidler, also called "Villa Parolo" after the first names of the owners, stands on slightly rising ground with a wide view of the lake. The building was constructed using timber frame construction on the imposing base floor, which is clad in field stones. The front of the house, which opens onto the lake shore, is correspondingly striking. The country house was originally a weekend house. Today it is used as a holiday home.
