Tramm – Between the Lewitz and Village History

Between the Lewitz and Village History

Tramm lies on the edge of the “Lewitz” large landscape and nature conservation area. Well-preserved farmhouses in Tramm, the history of the Bahlenhüschen Forestry Barn and trails through fields, forests and meadows each offer a different perspective on the area. When deciding whether Tramm is the right holiday destination for you, both village history and nature experiences may play a part. If you are looking for a holiday apartment or holiday home, consider what you would like your stay to focus on: traditional farm architecture, walking and cycling tours, panoramic views across the Lewitz or the bathing area at Lake Settiner See. These different themes offer a practical guide to deciding what you would like to focus on during your stay.

The farmhouses bear witness to the hard work of the Lewitz farmers. They add a distinctive touch alongside the nature and landscape themes: Tramm can also be discovered through its farming history. At the entrance to the village stand large wooden geese known as the “Trammer Gois”.

The Bahlenhüschen Forestry Barn

The Bahlenhüschen Forestry Barn was built around 1770 as a storage barn and was reconstructed from 2000 to 2004 almost exactly as it originally was. These two dates mark different periods in its history: its original construction and its later reconstruction. Today, the barn is equipped for information, documentation and educational purposes, particularly for school classes as part of practical environmental education and instruction. It can also be used for celebrations, lectures and exhibitions. The building thus brings together its former storage function and a range of educational and event uses. Those interested in history or environmental education will find a specific point of connection here.

Walking and Cycling

The Alte Riesen II themed walking trail starts at the Bahlenhüschen Forestry Barn and leads through fields, forests and meadows. In autumn, you can hear stags roaring along this trail. Choosing this route combines a walk through these changing landscapes with a special nature experience in autumn. Another route to the forestry barn is a forest trail from Göhren via the Krähenberge, which leads directly there. The walking options described thus differ in their starting points and routes.

A cycling tour also runs from Göhren via Bahlenhüschen and a section of the Waldlewitz to Tramm. Here, Tramm is the destination of the cycling tour; the forest trail via the Krähenberge leads to the Bahlenhüschen Forestry Barn. When planning your excursions, you can choose between a walk along the themed trail, the forest trail to the barn and a cycling tour to Tramm. No information is given here about route lengths or difficulty levels—the routes and destinations mentioned are what matter.

Panoramic Views, Water and the Charcoal-Burning Tradition

The Molkerei-Berg offers panoramic views across the Lewitz. There is a bathing area at Lake Settiner See. Both places offer a different focus from the village houses, barn and walking trails: the Molkerei-Berg is a place to take in the landscape, while Lake Settiner See offers a spot to spend time at a bathing area. If nature, outdoor activities and water are important to you when choosing a holiday, these themes can feature in your plans alongside the village history.

Another cultural highlight is the charcoal festival at the Bahlenhüschen Forestry Barn. Every two years, charcoal is made there from Lewitz beechwood using traditional methods. The festival connects the regional charcoal-burning tradition with wood and craftsmanship. Together with the history of the barn and its educational and event uses, it offers a distinct cultural element alongside the trails and landscape experiences.
