Dahme/Mark sits at the eastern end of the Fläming, where the low hills meet the lowlands of Lusatia, and its castle ruins and old town walls hint at a more important past. The town is small and quiet, with a church, a market square and a park around the ruins of the castle, which burned in the early twentieth century. The surrounding landscape is a mix of forests, fields and small villages, with gentle hills that offer views over the plain.
