Geography The Dassower Lake is adjacent to Dassow, Germany. The town of Dassow in the district Nordwestmecklenburg is the only large settlement at the lake bank. The Dassower Lake - a nearly locked side bay of the Travemuendung - lies northeast from Luebeck (Schleswig-Holstein) in direct proximity to the Baltic Sea. It is not really a lake, but brackish water - a bay, which together with the Pötenitzer Wiek is separated from the open ocean and the Bay of Lübeck by the Priwall Peninsula. The approximately 8 km long Dassower lake has a funnel-like form, which narrows itself in the west (delta into the Trave) outgoing from the delta of the river Stepenitz in the east, again on approximately 300 m. The lake belonged to the city of Luebeck, and forms the border to Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. As homeland of approximately 30 kinds of ducks, the Dassower Lake is one of the largest bird protection areas of Germany. The lake provides refuge and is also an important racing and wintering area for Nordic water birds along with the two islands of grass and reeds. The entire bank range of the Dassower lake and the lake stand have been under protection of the European union since 1983.
