The Mittelbrandenburgische plates and lowlands form in Brandenburg and partly also in the southwest of Berlin and to the east of Saxony-Anhalt that are available natural space . As main unit group 81 of the natural division of Germany in large regions, they are part of the East German plateau and heald . The Brandenburg part of the Central Brandenburg plateaus and lowlands essentially coincides with the natural area known as the Middle Mark in the structural atlas of the State of Brandenburg.

location

The Central Brandenburg plateaus and lowlands are part of the North German lowlands. Neighboring natural landscapes are the Luchland in the north, the East Brandenburg heath and lake area in the east, the Spreewald and the Lausitz basin and heathland in the southeast, the Fläming in the south and the Elbe valley in the west.

description

In the Central Brandenburg plateaus and lowlands, almost all landscape elements of the Vistula-Cold Age origin that occur in the state of Brandenburg are combined. Basically different sized moraine plates alternate with wide depressions. The lowlands of the Havel , Nuthe and Notte adjoin the Nauen and Teltower ground moraine plates in the north . They were followed in turn by moraines and Sander dominated areas of Karower plate , the Lehniner country and the nations of Beelitz and Luckenwalde . In the very south, the Baruther Tal is followed by a wide glacial valley .

The highest peaks are found in the form of compression moraines . The Wietkiekenberg reaches 124.7 m, the Kleine Ravensberg near Potsdam 114.2 m, the Götzer Berg 108.6 m above sea level. The entire natural area is drained via the Havel and its tributaries.

The Central Brandenburg plateaus and lowlands are subdivided as follows:
