Wernsdorfer See, Protected lake in Königs Wusterhausen and Gosen-Neu Zittau, Germany.

The Wernsdorfer See encompasses 138 hectares within the Berlin-Fürstenwalder Spree Valley, featuring clear waters and extensive reed beds along its shores.

The lake area shows evidence of human settlement from the Middle Stone Age, with Slavic traces dating back to the 4th century CE.

The lake's management involves professional fisheries maintaining populations of eel, bream, pike, carp, and roach for regional angling activities.

Fishing permits are available for purchase, with daily passes costing 5 euros and annual permits priced at 35 euros.

Between 1950 and 1956, Berlin's waste was deposited into the lake, reducing its surface area by approximately 25 percent.
