Neutrebbin combines local history with a clearly defined hike: the Lovers’ Monument on Liebesinsel, the “Old Fritz” Monument and a 3.45-kilometre trail give visitors specific points of interest. The Heimatstube also has an exhibition area devoted to the changes of the 20th century. For more on culture, nature and cycling, you can broaden your view to the larger destination of Märkisch-Oderland.
Monuments and Local History
The Lovers’ Monument on Liebesinsel in Neutrebbin was erected in 1990 by sculptor Janulies Tembrides. The “Old Fritz” Monument was re-erected in Neutrebbin in 1994 and is dedicated to Frederick II (1712–1782). The two monuments therefore represent different historical reference points: one was erected in 1990, while the other was re-erected and is dedicated to Frederick II. At the Heimatstube Neutrebbin, the second section of the exhibition documents the changes of the 20th century. Thus, alongside the stories of the individual monuments, developments of that century are presented as a topic in their own right.
The Hiking Trail through Neutrebbin
The Friedensplatz–Weidenweg–Kuhstallstraße–Wriezener Straße hiking trail is 3.45 km long and can be started at any point in Neutrebbin. The route described starts at Friedensplatz, passes through the Drift to Weidenweg, goes past the biogas plant and continues along the cycle path on Wriezener Damm. In town, it follows Wriezener Straße and Hauptstraße back to Friedensplatz. The route connects sections outside the town with streets within it; you do not have to start at Friedensplatz. This gives you two specific details to plan around: the stated trail length and the freedom to choose your starting point anywhere in Neutrebbin. Check local conditions before setting out.
