The best walks and hikes around Neetzow-Liepen

Opposite there is a very nicely designed cemetery.

The owners of the Wieck manor, Franz and Mathilde Lepel, had this burial chapel built in 1859. They and 11 of their descendants were buried here until 1931. The present-day park also housed the cemetery for the residents of Wieck. Since 2000, after restoration, the chapel has been used as a registry office.

The mooring for boats in Lake Kosenow .... The lake takes its name from the village of Kosenow, which according to legend is said to have sunk into it. In 1926, relics of a Wendish settlement were found on its western edge, which can be attributed the documented name Cusenow, or Cosenow, and to whose disappearance the legend certainly refers.

St. Mary's Church was consecrated on May 22, 1910 after only one year of construction. Its construction was made possible by donations from predominantly Polish Catholics. There were very few Catholic citizens in and around Gützkow. From spring to late autumn, however, around 1,500 Catholic seasonal workers, the so-called reapers, worked on the estates in the area. From around 1907, they used the restaurant on the lake (Anners) for their services. At the request of the Polish reapers, the Catholic church council in Greifswald negotiated with the seasonal workers and in 1908 and 1909 a collection was held for the construction of the church, which was also supported financially by the diocese and the Bonifatius Association. The architect Josef Tietz from Greifswald, who came from Bohemia, drew up the design and cost estimates. The ministerial approval for the construction was given on May 5th, 1909, the church approval on August 11th, 1909, and construction could begin. The building was built in the neo-Gothic style from red clinker bricks with plastered panels. A small stair tower was added on the northwest side, which serves as a staircase to the organ gallery. A bell tower is attached to the west gable. After 1945 there were no more seasonal workers, but the refugees from the Sudetenland and Upper Silesia had brought over 400 Catholics to Gützkow and over 1000 to the surrounding area. This made the community very stable. The large community made it necessary to build a rectory with an apartment for the priest. This building was the first building in Gützkow after the Second World War to be inaugurated on July 19th, 1951. In October 1994, the renovation of the church roof began, as well as the re-plastering of the window panels and then the renovation of the interior.

The park pond(s) were created in 1859 during the redesign of the Wieck Castle Park. The second pond was filled in in the 1920s because it had become silted up.

Sacred building with a rare architectural design and high heritage value. The picture shows the color lithograph by the architect Lucae from 1859.

Construction of a manor house/castle in the Tudor style, but unfortunately this is no longer recognizable due to the demolitions in 1955/60. This type of building is rarely found in Western Pomerania in this size and design. The park with the neo-Gothic chapel as an ensemble, as well as the extensive farmyard in the construction phases 1825-1850 and 1880-1890 are also worth mentioning.
