LANDESUMWELTAMT BRANDENBURG

The Lebus State Teaching Facility

With an open view over the Oder and the Aue and its idyllic location on the Oderberg in the middle of an incomparable landscape, the Lebus State Teaching Facility is an ideal place for teaching and learning, excursions or practical seminars, as well as German-Polish encounters. Since the beginning of the 1990s training and continuing education courses and workshops in all areas of environmental protection have taken place here. Cultural events and German-Polish exchange opportunities round out the program of the educational institution.
The site has been formed both by geological history – lying at the edge of the steep drop off of the Lebus Plate, 67 meters above sea level – and by cultural history. The special climactic conditions on the Oder created here a cultural landscape with many rare plants and animals. A special point of interest are the so-called Pontic Slopes with the pheasant's eye which glows yellow-gold in spring. Because of the proximity to the Lower Oder Valley National Park, to the Schlaub Valley Nature Parks, and the Märkische Schweiz as well as to the Polish border with the Warta Mouth National Park, the educational facility is an ideal point of departure for special excursions as well as a scientific, practical base for working and learning in nature.
