The monastery was intended to house unmarried daughters of the nobility and later also the offspring of wealthy citizens. The former Cistercian monastery was destroyed in 1637 during the Thirty Years' War and was never rebuilt. The monastery ruins now serve as a backdrop for the open-air theater.

It is known for its two life-size stone lions that guard the family burial ground.

I still know the place where the petrol was drawn from the pump in GDR times so that the agricultural machinery could run. Today's manor was formerly the LPG farm and there was a lot of activity here.

Kröchlendorff Castle was built in 1848 by Prussia's first freelance architect Eduard Knoblauch on behalf of Baron Oskar von Arnim. The castle is surrounded by a beautiful park. The first gardens were laid out around 1700 and were expanded and redesigned in the course of building the castle according to the ideas of the landscape designer Peter Joseph Lenné. Adapted from Lenné Park, the architect Knoblauch designed the castle in the English Gothic style. He mainly used tracery rosettes in the windows, Tudor arches, a crenellated wreath and other Gothic decorative elements. Above the entrance is the von Arnim and von Bismarck family coat of arms. A banner below the coat of arms bears the year 1848. This coat of arms is also based on a design by Knoblauch. The current appearance of the castle is determined by the squat tower domes, the large window openings and the flat-looking facade.

The Kröchlendorff Castle Church was built between 1864 and 1868 according to plans by Ferdinand von Arnim and was then used as an Evangelical Reformed church. The members of the von Arnim family buried in the crypt, including Malwine von Arnim (1827–1908), Otto von Bismarck's sister, were reburied in the neighboring cemetery after the family was expropriated in 1950. The last service took place in 1961 and the church was de-dedicated in 1968. During a long period of neglect and decay in the church, the neo-Gothic furnishings were destroyed, with the exception of the remains of the pulpit. In 1992, the political community of Gollmitz, now Nordwestuckermark, took over the building. Between 1993 and 2002 the church was restored and inaugurated as a communication and cultural center. Since then, it has served, among other things, as an event room and an exhibition building. It is also used for civil weddings and occasionally for church services of the Evangelical Church of Potzlow-Lindenhagen in the Uckermark parish of the Evangelical Church of Berlin-Brandenburg-Silesian Upper Lusatia.[2] It shows the forms of the French High Gothic, the Rayonnant style, which were unusual for the German Neo-Gothic of the mid-19th century. The entire structure stands on a crypt with flat ridge vaults, the floor plan of which is similar to that of the church. The walls with plastered blocks are structured by buttresses.
