Description: As it threads its way through the marshy lowlands of Lusatia, the River Spree splits into hundreds of narrow streams. Centuries ago, after a fierce struggle, a Slavonic race, called the "Wends" sought peace and freedom in this wilderness. Through the Wends' ancient customs and their deep religion, they have lived in freedom ever since, preserving their ancient customs and language.
