The church was built in the 13th century and has remained a ruin since its destruction in 1440.

An incredibly solid masonry of precisely hewn fieldstones characterizes this fairly well-preserved ruin. Considering that it has remained in this condition since 1440, this is also quite astonishing. The original church was built in the mid-13th century and fell victim to a major war. Lychen was conquered in the Pomeranian-Brandenburg War (1329-1333).

Unfortunately it's too late in the year to go swimming, but it would be great in the summer.

The town of Lychen was founded as early as 1248. Lychen has a baroque town hall on the market square, which was originally built on the site of an older town hall. Over the course of history, it experienced several fires: in 1633 there were great devastations due to a fire, and in 1732 the town hall burned down to the foundations again. In 1748, the reconstruction took place as a two-story baroque plastered building with a tower and a mansard roof. In 1817, the town hall received a tower clock. In 1945, it burned down partially again. The final reconstruction took place in 1956/57, but without a tower and without a clock for cost reasons. In front of the town hall stands an oversized thumbtack, which was invented in Lychen in 1903 by Johann Kirsten. Today, the town hall serves as the seat of the Lychen town administration, is centrally located on the market square and in the center of the town.

The gate collapsed in the 18th century, and a previously existing moat was filled in. Only the gatehouse remained for some time to collect tolls. Further information is available on the information board in front.
