Cool things to see in Cottbus

Ok folks - the berlin photo group has decided to take a bit of a day trip to Cottbus on Friday - for those living there, what is the one thing we should see? Thanks!

A quick Google search turns up not so many things to see in Cottbus..

Klosterkirche & Branitz Palace .. Thats it..

Not sure but am certainly interested in your opinion/feedback when you get back.

in all seriousness I thought there was nothing of interest there

Hi all,
There was enough for a day trip and wandering around. We wound up seeing the university library, the old town square (where we had lunch) the city walls, and the outside of a few churches. Then, we went over to Branitz park (it's huge - best for bicycles and could be a cool place to go camping) and wandered about. It was a nice day to be outside and get photographs.

As others said - the town/ park combo is worth a day trip - and wouldn't keep you entertained much beyond. All told, though, it was 6.50 Eur each round trip with 8 people going - so you couldn't beat the price to get out of Berlin for a few hours and get into a bit of the "countryside".

Any one living in Cottbus?
