Information panel on timber rafting on the Ruppin waters

The information panel “Timber Rafting on the Ruppin Waters” is located at 53.0189267, 12.8094333 at the old rafting site in the Ruppiner Schweiz. It describes how wood was once collected, tied into rafts and transported across the lakes and waterways of the region.

Historical photos, map sections and short texts show the route of the timber from the landings via the waterways to sawmills and further processing sites. In this way, the panel clearly illustrates the former importance of forest, water and craftsmanship for the Ruppiner Schweiz.
