The rabbit pit

The Hasengraben is a 350 m long canal in Potsdam.

It connects the Holy Lake with the Jungfernsee . The Hasengraben was dug in 1737 under the soldier king. It was planned as a pure transport route to create the building materials for the city expansion into the city center.

Friedrich Wilhelm IV used the Hasengraben to row from the Marble Palace to the Heilandskirche at the Port of Sacrow on Sundays .
