Crane House, Wittenberge

Highlight • Historical Site

The Kranhaus in Wittenberge is a historic building on the Elbe that originally served as part of the port facilities. It was built in the first half of the 20th century and served for a long time as a storage and transshipment point for goods transported across the Elbe. With the industrial development of Wittenberge, the building played an important role in the city's economy. However, after the decline of the port, the Kranhaus lost its original function and stood empty for some time.

It was later converted into a restaurant, which operated until it closed a few years ago. In 2021, a Berlin entrepreneur bought the building with the plan to use it as a meeting and overnight location for project teams. Extensive renovations were carried out at the time.

Steintor Wittenberge

Highlight • Historical Site

The Stone Gate is the oldest building and the most important landmark of Wittenberg's old town. It was probably built as a medieval gate in the middle of the 13th century in the Gothic style, with the upper part still being a wooden structure.
A second gate in the south was the Elbe Gate, which burned down in 1751.
It dates back to the time when the noble Lord Gans of Putlitz founded the town.
Around 1430, John II of Buch had the tower rebuilt after a town fire in 1297, this time out of stone. In the past, the people of Wittenberg simply called the Stone Gate "Old Tower".
In its history, from the 19th century onwards, it served as a police prison for a long time.
But that ended in 1928, when a town and local history museum was housed here, it was the town's first museum.

Town Church Wittenberge

Highlight • Religious Site

The formerly small fishing and farming town of Wittenberge in Prignitz had modest predecessor churches: the foundations of the church from the time of the city's founding in the 13th century were discovered in 1997. In a devastating city fire in 1652, the church was destroyed by the flames. The rebuilt church also burned down in 1757. Finally, the simple successor building, consecrated in 1771, had to do without a tower and was - in the meantime far too small and dilapidated - demolished in 1870. After the foundation stone was laid on March 24, 1870, a church that shaped the cityscape grew up within two years. The church tower, visible from afar, filled the Wittenberg family with pride.
