Teltow-Fläming District

The district covers agricultural plains in the Teltow area and forested hills of the Fläming region, encompassing 14 municipalities with Luckenwalde as its administrative center. It combines flat farmland in the western sections with larger wooded areas toward the east.

The district was formed in 1993 through the merger of former districts Luckenwalde, Jüterbog, and Zossen plus portions from neighboring areas. This administrative reorganization created a larger, unified territorial unit in the Brandenburg region.

Medieval buildings like churches and former monastery structures stand throughout various towns, particularly noticeable in Jüterbog and surrounding villages. These structures shape the visual character of the communities you pass through.

The S-Bahn rail network provides easy connections to Berlin through several towns in the district. Forests and parks across the region offer plenty of space for hiking and cycling through the countryside.

Between 1997 and 2001, the district experienced exceptional economic growth exceeding 56 percent. This period marked rapid transformation and development in the years following German reunification.
