Attractions and Places To See around Thelkow - Top 20

The Dalwitz Estate is located in Mecklenburg, about an hour from Rostock. It is owned by Dr. Heinrich von Basswitz and his wife, Countess Lucy von Basswitz. Here, you can spend a wonderful, relaxing vacation.

At the beginning, it's a very nice bike path with excellent asphalt. The middle section becomes a dirt road, which could be bumpy for narrow tires. After that, it's back to good asphalt. The scenery and tranquility are fantastic.

Polchow lay on Mecklenburg's oldest trade route, the Via Regia, which ran through this area 1,000 years ago and was already used by Slavic and Arab traders. The church in Polchow was built between 1888 and 1891 by Gotthilf Ludwig Möckel and is a neo-Gothic brick building with a recessed choir and a west tower, constructed over a three-year period. The choir windows depict the apostles Peter and Paul. The stone epitaph depicts the Crucifixion in its center, flanked by kneeling family members turning toward the scene of the crucifixion. Above it is the Resurrection. The old linden tree in the cemetery was declared a natural monument in 1937 and is considered the oldest linden tree in Mecklenburg. As early as 1886, its circumference was given as 13 meters.

Dalwitz was a manor village. Since 1349, the land around Dalwitz has been owned by the Counts of Bassewitz. Starting in 1992, Count Heinrich Bassewitz expanded the Dalwitz estate into an organic farm. The farm received the Agricultural Culture Prize in 1999 and the Thünen Medal in 2001. The manor house, built in the Swedish country house style in 1726, was remodeled and expanded in the Tudor style in 1855. After 1992, vacation apartments were built on the estate, as well as a riding stable with a riding facility and a restaurant. This offers numerous options for vacationers. The farm shop and the excellent restaurant "La Remise" offer supplies, as does the nearby small shop "Ihre Kette."

The church bells are still original - you can hear it :)

Bad Sülze received its town charter between 1255 and 1262. The first news of the church in Sülze comes from 1276. Accordingly, this church was built in the middle of the 13th century as a brick church in the Gothic style in competition with the town church in Marlow, which was built around the same time been built. The spire was destroyed by fire in 1770. The burning tip penetrated the roof of the nave but remained on the vault. It was not until 1892 that the tower received a new, straight, neo-Gothic top. The town church has a longitudinal nave with two square bays with late Gothic star vaults. The east side with its rising arched frieze is closed off by a beautiful gable. On the north side there is a beautiful recessed portal crowned with three Gothic eyelashes. The altar, which replaced the one destroyed by fire in 1770, is noteworthy. The key is available in the parish office or in the “Cafe Wunderbar” for tours. https://www.auf-nach-mv.de/reiseziel/a-kirche-in-bad-suelze
