The Gefallenendenkmal (War Memorial) is a combined memorial for World War I and World War II. It consists of a stepped base with a granite stele placed on top. The nameplate for World War I is embedded in the stele. Next to it (placed alongside) is a separate nameplate for World War II.

The 23-hectare protected forest serves to preserve and develop a groundwater-influenced pedunculate oak-hornbeam forest with holly, as well as stands of alder and ash, while simultaneously safeguarding the water balance and habitats of endangered plant species. As a particularly valuable remnant of such a mixed deciduous forest in the sparsely wooded Prignitz region, it is being scientifically monitored long-term and without direct human intervention to study forest development, soil, flora, fauna, and natural self-organization processes. At the same time, the area functions as a forestry demonstration plot, conserves forest genetic resources, and contributes to the long-term preservation of biodiversity in self-regulating communities.

Of the Marienfließ monastery, the oldest Cistercian monastery in Prignitz, today only the monastery church remains, which is used as a parish church. In 1829 a wooden ceiling was installed and a new roof turret was installed. In 1900 the interior was renovated. The church is open daily from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The Stepenitz, this small, lively river of the Prignitz, does not offer that many opportunities to hike directly along it. This section is one of the highlights - you walk directly along the river and get many impressions of the natural river bed.

This old bridge leads from the small car park on the L13 over the Stepenitz. Originally there was a sheep pen here, hence the name.
