Straussee Ferry, Cable ferry in Strausberg, Germany.

The Straussee Ferry transports passengers and cyclists across the Straussee lake using an overhead cable system powered by electrical supply at 230 volts.

Two lattice towers support the overhead power wire spanning 370 meters across the lake, making it the longest span for vehicle power supply in Europe.
