To the west and south-west is the nature reserve Großer and Westufer Kleiner Zeschsee .

history

Zesch am See was first mentioned in a document as Zceysch in 1495 . The place is certainly much older, as the village structure shows. At that time it belonged to the Baruth rule . The name is probably to be interpreted as the place of a Ćěch .

The structure of the village is round . Rundlinge were created especially in the 12th century in the contact area of Slavic and German settlers, probably under the influence of a German manorial rule . Rundlinge are therefore not originally Slavic forms of settlement, but a form of medieval plan settlement.

In 1529 eight hoppers and three gardeners are named. In 1575 there were eleven residents and one mayor . During the Thirty Years War the place fell almost completely desolate . Only one farm and the three cottages were occupied again in 1708. Ten farms that were not reoccupied were combined to form a Vorwerk and managed by the rulers. In 1722 six fireplaces (= households) were counted. On the Schmettauschen map from 1767 to 1787 there is a Pechhütte to the southwest of the village and a mill at the southern end of the Großer Zeschsee. The mill was demonstrably owned by the rulership in 1810. In 1791 the place was mentioned as a manor and in 1806 it became part of the Kingdom of Saxony, from 1815 to Prussia. In 1824 a farmer , six cottagers and seven cottagers lived in Zesch am See . The manorial Vorwerk comprised four buildings, there was also a shepherd's house and a school house. In 1837 19 houses were named as well as the tar furnace outside the village . 154 inhabitants have survived from 1858. In 1891 the district forester came to the place. The main building, stable building, barn and cellar are under monument protection in the 21st century. Around 1900 the place had 20 residential houses and four stately homes; In 1903 there is a fishing hut. In 1931 there were 21 houses and 27 households in the village. In 1948 103 hectares were expropriated and divided. In 1959 an agricultural production cooperative (LPG) type I was established, which in 1960 had 18 members and managed 66 hectares of usable land. In 1964 she joined the LPG in Lindenbrück. Zesch am See was incorporated into Lindenbrück in 1974.

During the GDR era, a holiday camp was built and operated near the town . In 2012, the city of Zossen expanded the bathing area on the Großer Zeschsee into a lido. In 2013, a development association founded in 2010 planted vines again for the first time on the historic vineyard.
