Pretzien Steinbruchsee

Schönebeck-Pretzien, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany

UNVERIFIED — Pretzien Steinbruchsee is an exact named Germany dive site supported by current source-backed evidence. Its coordinate is a deliberately rounded locality display marker, not an entry, exit, mooring, mine route, wreck, wall feature, structure or navigation waypoint. Current authorization, opening status, depth limits and conditions require a local briefing; this is desk research, not field verification.
