The interior of the church has a flat roof, and the interior furnishings date back to the renovation in the 1950s. Older Schwerin residents in the parish will remember that Protestant youth groups often gathered in Cramon for their summer meetings: the rectory has a special reputation among them. Today, the rectory has been sold, and the rectory barn was in danger of falling into disrepair. But, miraculously, residents of the surrounding villages came together with the parish to transform the barn into a radio play barn, which has also become a meeting place for the entire village and the surrounding area.

The Perlin village church is a remarkable example of North German church architecture. Built in the mid-13th century, the church is a towerless fieldstone church with a characteristic dome-shaped vault in the choir area.
