Müritz The is a lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern , northern Germany . Its area is, which makes it the second largest lake in Germany and the largest lake located entirely within German territory. Its maximum depth is. It is fed and drained by the river Elde . Part of the Müritz and adjacent forests and wetlands are protected by the Müritz National Park . The former Müritz district was named after the lake. The biggest towns bordering the lake are Waren and Röbel , both major centres of tourism in the Mecklenburg Lake District . Lake Müritz is part of the Müritz-Elde Waterway , a Class I federal waterway . It is managed by the Lauenburg Waterway and Shipping Authority .Geography Divisions The Müritz Basin is divided into several large bays. Unlike the shallow eastern part of the lake, the western side is divided into several channel-like inlets like the Bays of Röbel and Sietow . By the town of Waren on the northern shore of the lake is the Binnenmüritz , which contains the deepest point of the lake, and only has a narrow strait connecting it to the main basin of Lake Müritz. At the southern shore is the Little Müritz from which the Müritzarm and the Müritzsee branch off further to the south . Lake Müritz measures about from north to south and about from east to west ; and has a catchment area of about. The Müritz is crossed by the River Elde from south to north and has a link to the Kölpinsee in the west from the Binnenmüritz via the Reeck Canal which is a good two kilometres long. Because it also feeds the River Havel to the east via the Mirow Canal , which is part of the Müritz-Havel Waterway , and the Bolter Canal as well as via the chains of adjoining lakes, it has artificially been turned into a bifurcated waterway.Creation Lake Müritz was formed during the Weichselian glaciation between the Pomeranian and the Frankfurt Stages. Originally the entire Mecklenburg Lake District was a huge lake, that split into several smaller lakes, linked to one another, as a result of a fall in sea level .Water level The water level of Lake Müritz has changed several times in the preceding centuries, primarily as a result of human influences. In the 12th century the surface of the lake was still above sea level . By 1737 the lake surface had risen to as a result of the waterway being impounded in several positive and negative stages in order, for example, to drive mills along the River Elde downstream. But by 1739 the mill reservoir had been lowered by around. In the wake of two adjustments to the Elde and two further changes to the mill impoundment the water level reached its present level of in 1836.Settlements The largest town on Lake Müritz is Waren. Other settlements are Rechlin , Priborn , Vipperow , Ludorf , Röbel/Müritz , Gotthun , Sietow and Klink .
