I was attending the Ernst Thälmann School back then, so it was a nice coincidence.

The view from the bridge over the Havel Canal on Neustrelitzer Straße in Wesenberg is particularly charming. From here, a wide view opens up over the waters of the Havel, lined with lush greenery. The tranquil, natural surroundings invite you to pause for a moment—ideal for a short stop on a bike ride. The bridge itself is a popular vantage point and offers a beautiful perspective on the typical landscape of the Mecklenburg Lake District. Also nearby are the "Fischerhof" farm and rest areas that invite you to take a break.

Construction began as early as 1250; the nave with its vaults dates from the second half of the 14th century, and the choir's circular wall and the tower base also date from this period. The church was mentioned as completed as early as 1337. In 1529, the first Protestant pastor came to Wesenberg, marking the arrival of the Reformation. During the great town fire of 1706, the church burned, and all five bells melted. The clock was buried under rubble, and the organ was damaged. Only the walls and the vault survived, and so the reconstruction of St. Mary's Church in Wesenberg began in 1707, and the rectory was rebuilt in 1708.
