You can ride quite well here now. However, the cycle path towards Menz from Rheinsberg is not easily passable. In summer, the trees offer protection from the sun. Overall, a good route for me to cover distance on a gravel bike.

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).
