Lake Müggelsee

The Große Müggelsee is located in southeast Berlin, and belongs to the urban district of Köpenick. It is Berlin’s largest lake, with a water surface of 7.3 square kilometres. The maximum depth of the lake is officially 8 metres, but this depth is only reached in a few places. The Spree River flows through the lake, the catchment area of which covers an area of around 7,000 square kilometres up to this point. At our research and monitoring station ‘Georg Mothes’, located some 300 metres from the north shore of the lake, we take meteorological and hydrological values on an hourly basis.
