Is this where the Havel River transforms into a sea? This, my friends, is Breitlingsee. Don’t let the name fool you – it’s actually a wide bay of the Havel River. Situated west of Brandenburg an der Havel, Breitlingsee spans over 5 square kilometers, making it feel almost like a small sea. The illusion is enhanced by the distant islands you see dotting the water, remnants of the last Ice Age. Imagine, for a moment, that you’re a sailor from centuries past. You’ve navigated the Havel, and now this expansive water greets you. You might even feel compelled, as many have, to call it “Breitling Sea”. Breitlingsee is part of a chain of interconnected lakes, including the Möserscher See and Plauer See. This waterway is so significant that it’s an official part of the Lower Havel Waterway. Keep an eye out – you might just spot a barge or a pleasure boat making its way across Breitlingsee. The experience of Breitlingsee is one of majestic openness, a serene escape right on the edge of Brandenburg an der Havel. Enjoy the tranquility and let the immensity of this “sea” captivate you.
