What to expect
The Hubbrücke in Plau am See is an industrial monument and a popular photo motif. The lift bridge was built in 1916, saved from demolition in 1945, and reconstructed in 1991/92. It lifts up about 1.60 meters to allow larger ships to pass through to the lock or Lake Plauer See. The bridge connects two parts of the town and is a rare example of early industrial engineering combined with modern restoration techniques. Visitors can witness the lifting mechanism in action, making it a unique experience for families. The surrounding area offers various attractions, including the Müritz-Elde-Wasserstraße and the Plauer See, which is a popular spot for swimming and water sports
