The oldest part of the rectangular choir with a domed cross-ribbed vault and a group of two windows in the east wall, the wider, also rectangular nave was probably built immediately afterwards towards the end of the 13th century, but in the late Gothic period it was converted into a two-aisled, four-bay hall with cross-ribbed vaults by adding a row of central pillars easternmost pillar was placed directly in front of the triumphal arch,
Tower substructure a hundred years later made of brick with a baroque half-timbered tower and clapboard-roofed helmet (18th century), two bells also 18th century.

Window openings and portals as well as east gable in brick, gable between nave and choir decorated with staggered plaster panels, surrounding ornamental frieze on the nave, north sacristy made of brick on a field stone foundation, interior furnishings renewed in the 19th century.

Mühlengraben

Highlight • River

The Müritz National Park Office regularly checks bridges and paths in the park for traffic safety. After inspecting the hiking trail near Ankershagen, it was decided to dismantle the aging bridge over the Mühlengraben. The new stream crossing will be ensured in the form of stepping stones. The stream carries little water, so the field stones are a safe and attractive solution.

The Havelquelle is always worth a look. A good place to rest with some information on information boards. A little further away is a beautiful bathing area with meadows and shady spots under trees. There is also a jetty.
