Lake Edderitz

Highlight • Lake

Lake Edderitz is located in the Anhalt-Bitterfeld district, south of Köthen in the town of Southern Anhalt. It originated from the former Edderitz open-cast mine and is therefore also known as the "open-cast mine pit near Edderitz."

Evangelical Lutheran Church, Edderitz

Highlight • Religious Site

Evangelical Lutheran Church

The church belongs to the Gröbzig parish in the Köthen church district of the Evangelical Church of Anhalt. Since the old village church, like most of the village of Edderitz, had to make way for lignite mining, the foundation stone for the present church was laid in 1953,[11] which was consecrated in 1955.[12]

Kirschallee

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Here you can accelerate (almost) without hesitation. Good asphalt with no potholes or bumps. However, be careful with oncoming traffic in the slight curves. The second part is a little more demanding and should be driven with the appropriate care.

St. James' Church, Köthen

Highlight • Religious Site

The St. Jacob's Church is the late Gothic successor to a Romanesque church from the 12th/13th. Century. The construction seen today began at the beginning of the 15th century and the last transformation took place between 1866 and 1869.

The building includes several architectural styles that you can look at. This is particularly evident in the double portal at the west entrance of the church, where Gothic architectural styles mix with Art Nouveau, which emerged at the end of the 19th century. Inside the church you can admire the three-aisled hall space over five bays. There is also a royal crypt in the church, which you can visit as part of a guided tour.
