Gnoien

The town hall is the seat of the municipal administration and the tourist information office. The Warbelstadt Gnoien, a small and beautiful farming town in the heart of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern with around 3000 inhabitants, invites guests from the federal states and all over the world. The town of Gnoien is surrounded on three sides by the Warbel, a small picturesque river. Let yourself be inspired by the unique historical town center, listen to the centuries-old history and visit venerable witnesses of the past such as the Gothic parish church St. Marien, the town hall in neo-Renaissance style, the Grand Ducal office building, the Imperial Post Office or the technical monument, the hundred-year-old water tower. We invite you to linger, enjoy and relax in one of the most beautiful regions of our country, Mecklenburg Switzerland. The town hall was built on the foundations of a previous building in the New Renaissance style in 1898. The first floor was plastered ashlar. Brick was used on the upper floor. After around 100 years, the house was given a much-needed facelift and is now a real gem in the town. A coat of arms embellishes the front of the house. Architectural style/construction: New Renaissance The market square is not only home to the town hall, but also the oldest house in Gnoien: the former Gasthaus zur Börse. The parish church was already built in the 13th century. The old town center features narrow cobblestone streets and restored residential and commercial buildings, many of which are listed buildings. The windmill, located on the edge of the town, houses a restaurant. Former Grand Ducal District Court: The building was built in 1880 as a district court in the neoclassical style. Refugees were housed here after 1945. After renovations, the regional outpatient clinic moved in in 1952. The Gnoien district court has been based here since 1992. The two-storey plaster building with a central risalit and two flat triangular gables has been restored. Visitors to the Warbel town of Gnoien can find the town information center directly in the town hall building on the market square.

The Loitz town information office is located in the town hall on the market square right in the town center. Over 750 years old, there was originally only a Slavic settlement here on the Peene, later the castle of Pomeranian princes stood there. Later there was even a ducal castle, which unfortunately did not survive the centuries and was completely destroyed in 1701. Instead, there are many other historic buildings, such as St. Mary's Church from the 13th century or the Stone Gate.

Usedom City Information

Usedom City Information

Usedom

The town of Usedom is a charming little town in the south of the island of Usedom. It is steeped in history. The Anklamer Gate with its local history museum, St. Mary’s Church, City Hall, and the Schlossberg invite our guests to linger. The only German town on the island of Usedom was granted Lübeck city rights in 1298. Small and steeped in history, Usedom is situated on an isthmus in the southeastern part of the island. Once upon a time, here on Lake Usedom, it was a prominent center of trade and craftsmanship and a ducal residence: from 1153/55 to 1307/09, it was also a monastic site and, at times, a bishop’s seat; and a mint from the late 12th through the 15th century. Usedom once had a city wall and three city gates. Of these, the Anklamer Gate—a beautifully structured brick building—has survived. Centuries ago, the town had five churches and chapels; today, only the imposing St. Mary’s Church towers over the surrounding area. Walking along one of the renovated streets in the old town, you’ll reach the Schlossberg, where a granite cross commemorates the Christianization of the region. The beautifully restored houses, charming cafés, and small shops in the town are a feast for the eyes. Unlike in the old days, the city now extends beyond its city walls to include the Usedomer Winkel, the southern tip of the island. In total, the city of Usedom comprises 13 districts. Guests who love peace, seclusion, and nature will find everything they’re looking for here in the beautiful Achterland. When exploring the Usedomer Winkel, highlights include the church in Mönchow, the remains of the railway lift bridge, a new marina for water sports enthusiasts in Karnin, and the island’s only land-based cheese dairy in Welzin. One of the newest attractions in the town of Usedom is the TRAKTOREN WELT USEDOM, built in 2015. Spanning an exhibition area of approximately 7,500 m², the tractor museum offers a 100-year overview of German tractor history from both East and West.

Ludwigslust town church

Ludwigslust town church

Ludwigslust

The "temple-like" town church in Ludwigslust is absolutely unusual by Mecklenburg standards. Not only the colossal altarpiece by two Baroque artists and the magnificent gallery for high nobility are well worth seeing. The church can be visited. The town church was built in 1770 as the court church for Ludwigslust Palace and was designed by court architect Johann Joachim Busch. Together with the palace square and the palace, it forms the largest baroque ensemble in Mecklenburg. In addition to the north-south orientation of the building, the Ludwigslust town church has numerous other special features. Compared to the huge altarpiece "Annunciation of the Shepherds" by the two court painters Dietrich Findorf and Johann Heinrich Suhrland, the bright interior with its design is almost plain. With a painted area of around 350 m², it is considered the largest altarpiece in Europe. The princely box is just as magnificent. Most of the decorations, ceiling rosettes and ornaments come from the Ludwigslust carton factory - in other words, they are made from the famous Ludwigslust papier-mâché. In the central aisle is the sarcophagus of Duke Friedrich, known as the Pious, who commissioned the church in Ludwigslust. The stone sarcophagus was made from a boulder weighing several tons at the grinding mill in Schwerin. Since the late 19th century, there has also been a frieze organ in Ludwigslust. The town church is Protestant and services are held regularly. The church is open to visitors from Tuesdays to Sundays and information material on the history of the church is available on site. Guided tours of the church are available on request.

St. Mary's City Church, Usedom

St. Mary's City Church, Usedom

Usedom

St. Mary’s Church in Usedom was first mentioned in 1337. After the great fire of 1475, the church was rebuilt. The first restoration took place in 1726 (wooden pillars and beam ceiling), followed by another from 1891 to 1893 (choir, upper part of the tower, and interior design—Neo-Gothic). Noteworthy features include the late-medieval tombstone of the ducal couple Ratibor and Pribislawa, founders of the Grobe Monastery near Usedom, and the Grüneberg organ. The church serves as a venue for the Usedom Music Festival.

St. Nicolai Gützkow town church

St. Nicolai Gützkow town church

Gützkow

The town church of St. Nikolai is located in Gützkow in Western Pomerania. It has a neo-Gothic interior. The fieldstone church in Gützkow was first mentioned in a document in 1241. However, today's church square was a religious site even earlier. There was a pagan temple here, which had to make way for a church building consecrated by Bishop Otto von Bamberg in 1128. The town church was badly damaged in a fire in the 18th century and was rebuilt and restored in the following decades. The church has a neo-Gothic interior. There are stained glass windows in the choir, which depict Martin Luther, Otto von Bamberg, the blessing Christ, Nicholas of Myra and the apostles Peter and Paul, among others.

St. Thomas City Church in Tribsee

St. Thomas City Church in Tribsee

Tribsees

A religious gem is St. Thomas Church in Tribsees, which was built around 1320 in the Gothic style and today dominates the townscape. Fires and various religious movements have shaped both its interior and exterior. This was later followed by a Neo-Gothic renovation. The most valuable feature of the interior is the carved Mühlen altar from the second quarter of the 15th century. A religious gem is St. Thomas Church in Tribsees, which was built around 1320 in the Gothic style and today dominates the townscape. Fires and various religious movements shaped both its interior and exterior. A Neo-Gothic renovation followed later. In 1702, the church burned down. Only the carved mill altar, a sculptural representation of a Eucharistic mill from the second quarter of the 15th century, could be saved. Today, it is the most valuable interior feature. The mill was a very popular motif among the Cistercians, who exercised patronage over this church from the Neuenkamp Monastery. When open, the altar measures 5.50 meters in width and 2.12 meters in height. In addition to this unique piece, St. Thomas Church houses the Lübeck pulpit from 1577, a Baroque crucifixion group from 1710, and a Buchholz organ from 1831, which was restored in 1996. Visitors may climb the church tower after registering at the parish office.

Stavenhagen City Church

Stavenhagen City Church

Stavenhagen

The town church in Stavenhagen was built in the 18th century. It is not known whether there was a church or chapel in the town’s old castle prior to the Reformation. However, there is evidence of an older church from the 13th century and an addition to the old tower in 1601. Until the Reformation, there was a castle chaplain in the town. The predecessor to today’s church was a half-timbered structure. During the Thirty Years’ War, the old church was severely damaged on several occasions. Despite numerous renovations and repairs, the building’s condition remained unsatisfactory, so it was decided to build a new church. It took a full century before the financial resources for a new building were available. In 1774, the half-timbered church was demolished, and on July 16, 1774, the cornerstone for the current church was laid. In 1782, the church was consecrated by Pastor Knöchel. The church tower was not completed until 1790. It houses two bells. The tower clock was fitted with a new mechanism in 1996.

Tessin City Church

Tessin City Church

Tessin

The Gothic St. John’s Church in the historic center of Tessin was consecrated around 1350. Built in the 14th century, the church was damaged in a town fire in 1728. During the subsequent restoration, the spire was placed atop the gabled roof. From 1896 to 1898, master builder Gotthilf Ludwig Möckel carried out a major renovation, during which the vestibule was added to the west side. The Baroque interior was replaced with a Neo-Gothic one as part of this project.

City wall

City wall

Stralsund

Large parts of the 700-year-old town wall are still preserved and have been continuously restored over the last few decades. Compared to other medieval towns, Stralsund still has large sections of the town wall. In the 13th century, the fortifications still consisted of piles. However, it was quickly replaced by a stone wall with towers and battlements in the 14th century. The section of the town wall between the former Hospitaler Tor gate and the Kütertor gate, which still exists today, was restored in the 1960s. The battlement walkways and the Wiekhäuser are also still preserved here. Two of the former ten gates still exist - the Kniepertor, mentioned in a document as early as 1293 and now used as an original dwelling, and the aforementioned Kütertor. The latter was built in 1446 and is sparsely structured with blinds on both sides. A tent roof with a lantern and steep helmet forms the end.

Sternberg town wall with mill gate

Sternberg town wall with mill gate

The town wall with mill gate in Sternberg surrounded the old town of Sternberg in the Middle Ages. The town wall and the town gates were destroyed in 1629 during the Thirty Years' War and rebuilt in their current form in 1839. While there were originally four town gates, only this mill gate with its entrance and exit still exists today. A staircase in the ramparts leads to the mill gate. The gate, built in late Gothic style, was extensively renovated in 1998. In November 2007, a lighting system was put into operation following extensive renovation of the rampart wall.

Paul Holz City Museum and Memorial

Paul Holz City Museum and Memorial

The 3rd floor houses the memorial to the artist Paul Holz (1883 - 1938). The Museum of the City of Pasewalk was opened in 1996 as a modern new museum building, making it one of the few institutions of its kind in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Today it offers a multifaceted insight into the history of the town and its surroundings. In the Prenzlauer Tor and the adjoining building, the permanent exhibition presents four central thematic areas on around 180 m². It takes visitors through the prehistory and early history between the Uecker and Randow rivers, shows the development of the medieval town, sheds light on the Prussian garrison period and focuses on the destruction during the Second World War and the reconstruction in the GDR. The exhibition combines historical objects with vivid illustrations and thus makes more than 750 years of the town's history comprehensible. The top floor of the gate tower also houses an exhibition on the regional artist Paul Holz. The museum preserves an extensive collection of his works and thus offers special access to his life and work. The offer is complemented by changing special exhibitions and a hands-on room that invites visitors of all ages to become active themselves.

City forest

City forest

Stralsund

The Stralsund city forest - a city forest on the moor pond. The Stralsund city forest is primarily used for recreation, to improve the quality of life in the city, to supply the citizens with wood and, of course, for nature conservation. It is an attractive green belt within the city, covers almost 50 hectares of water and land and was originally a ground moraine. This is why a layer of peat up to seven meters thick still rests under the moor pond today. The very nutrient-rich and moist soil favors the growth of plants such as reed beds and silver willows. Many different paths and trails lead through the wooded area, which extends north to southwest around the moor pond. This means that a walk around the moor pond is always a walk through the forest.
