Sport and Leisure in the City

Sports are also of great significance in our thousand-year city. Brandenburg an der Havel as a major centre of the Province of Brandenburg has a particular responsibility for development of sports and leisure in both the city and it’s surrounding areas. Sports themselves remain as ever bound to the development and provision of sporting and leisure facilities, the quality of life in communities is also determined by the proximity of these facilities. In Brandenburg sports personalities have consistently drawn attention through their performance to themselves, and so also to the city of Brandenburg. The outstanding location and attractive landscape provide many opportunities for leisure activities in the city, the extensive rivers and lakes of the Havel also providing the city and its surroundings with an ideal water sports area.
