Geography

Located in south-eastern suburb of the city, Schmöckwitz represents the southernmost locality of Berlin, with its southernmost point at Rauchfangswerder [de], a little peninsula between the lakes of Zeuthener See (on Dahme river) and Großer Zug which represents, also with the lakes Krossinsee [de] and Lake Wernsdorf [de], the borders of Schmöckwitz with Brandenburg. The bordering municipalities are Gosen-Neu Zittau (in Oder-Spree district), Königs Wusterhausen (with the civil parishes of Wernsdorf [de] and Ziegenhals [de]), Eichwalde (also with Miersdorfer Werder [de]) and Zeuthen; all of them in Dahme-Spreewald district.
