Today, it is one of the most valuable wetland areas in Germany, with a rich flora and fauna – rare species of butterflies, water birds and birds of prey can be found here. As part of the Peenetal project, work has been carried out for years to restore natural water conditions.

An absolutely magical little lake. With a bit of luck, you might even spot eagles! It's very isolated and difficult to reach by car (which is a good thing!), but hiking here is a wonderful experience thanks to the magnificent landscape and forest backdrop! The trail is signposted, even from three directions. Please be as quiet as possible and keep everything perfectly clean!

The current castle was built in 1878. The previous building was converted into a baroque castle in 1652 by Carl Gustav Wrangel, the Swedish general governor of Pomerania. In 1945 it was expropriated and occupied by the Soviet military administration. Today it is in private hands.

The nature reserve is very extensive, with numerous birds to see and a small observation tower. A bird was perched on almost every dead tree. The nature reserve is accessible via a well-maintained bike path.

The bathing area is completely fenced off, so it can only be visited during opening hours… What a pity.

The castle is private and not accessible, but walking (not cycling) is allowed on the park paths - it's worth it. A very well-kept facility.
