Wannseebrücke

You're standing at a significant junction in Berlin, the Wannseebrücke. This bridge spans the shores of the Große and Kleine Wannsee, forming part of the Federal Highway 1. As you look across the bridge, you'll see the Griebnitz Canal beginning its journey. This isn't just a traffic route; it connects two of Berlin's most beautiful bodies of water. About 224 meters south from here, you'll find the Kleist Memorial, dedicated to the famous poet. Further south, approximately 250 meters away, is the Berliner Ruder-Club, a hub for water sports enthusiasts. As you walk across, take in the scenic surroundings that are rich in both water and history.
