The Tornower See is a 36 hectare lake in Teupitz , a Brandenburg municipality in the Dahme-Spreewald district .
Geography and natural space
The lake is located in the east of the Neuendorf district , which is part of the Teupitz community. The village center with a meadow is located around 500 meters east of the water. The district borders the lake to the west; in the rest of the area it is surrounded by a mixed forest. South of the water is the nature reserve Briesensee and Klingeberg with the Briesensee of the same name. There is a direct connection between the two lakes via the Briesengraben. A few meters north of this ditch, a memorial stone commemorates the Berlin botanist Adolf Strauss (1904–1986), who worked in the Schenkenländchen. The Bullgraben flows in from the east, while in the northwest the Hohemühlenfließ represents the only outflow of the lake. There used to be a mill there that was used as a dance and excursion hall and is privately owned in the 21st century. The nature conservation group Teupitz lake area in NABU Dahmeland, under the direction of Stephan Runge, in cooperation with the chief forester Hans-Joachim Sommerfeld, has created a circular route around the lake, which introduces the visitor to the fauna and flora at a total of 34 stations. The project was supported by the city and a socio-therapeutic facility from Tornow. The lake is located in the southwest of the Dahme-Heideseen nature park .
Flora and fauna
Investigations by the Federal Research Institute for Forestry and Wood Management in Müncheberg have shown that autochthonous pines that are around 200 years old grow in the forest area to the south of the lake . Some of these trees are located near the Klingespring spring and are numbered to make them easier to identify. Over the centuries, the water escaping there led to an erosion trough , while an alluvial cone of sand was formed on the opposite point in the lake . The brown watercress and marsh horsetail thrive in the spring water .
On the shore of the lake, reed grows at a height of one to four meters in some places . In addition, there are the bilberry , the quail wheat , the grove , the common hazel , the common potted fern and - in the damp and wet depressions - the black alder and the wood sorrel . The common beech , birch , rowan , robinia and red oak also grow in the area around the lake . On some of the pines there are traces that indicate the extraction of natural resin during the GDR . Usually such trees were cut down after the material had been extracted. But here they stopped.
The otters , the kingfisher , the black woodpecker , the green woodpecker , the reed swirl , the thrush warbler , the common frog , the moor frog and the green mermaid were also detected in the area.
