Peißnitz Island
The green living room of Halle
Riverside woodlands and meadows make the river island the green living room of Halle (Saale). It invites you to picnic and cycle. Children romp around on the playgrounds, friends dance into the night at summer concerts and in August the island becomes a sea of lights at the Lantern Festival. Young and old sit at the same table in the garden pub in front of the Peißnitzhaus. And as befits a parlour: there are no cars here. Only the Peißnitz Express rattles through the greenery on narrow tracks. The Bridge of Friendship leads from the island, which is embraced by two arms of the Saale river, directly onto the wide brick meadow with its sky-scraping fountain and the popular Saale beach.
