Schaalsee
The Schaalsee is one of the deepest lakes in northern Germany — a tranquil biosphere reserve on the former border between Mecklenburg and Holstein.
AI-generated illustrative imageThe Schaalsee is located on the border between Schleswig-Holstein and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, east of Lübeck. This glacially-formed lake is one of the deepest in northern Germany and is surrounded by a chain of smaller bodies of water, bays and peninsulas. Because the inner-German border ran through here for decades, nature remained largely undisturbed; today the region is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Quiet shores, forests and abundant birdlife make it a destination for peaceful days in nature.

The terrace Kutscherscheune offers delicious game and fish dishes from the region. You can enjoy your meal on our terrace overlooking the lake or in our restaurant. We also offer daily freshly baked in our kitchen cakes, which are especially popular with the coachman cake.
