The best MTB trails around Gerdshagen

In April 1945, the SS drove around 33,000 prisoners from the Sachsenhausen concentration camp northwestwards on one of the last death marches. Many died of exhaustion, hunger, or by shootings. The memorial plaques mark stations of this path through the Prignitz.

The 28-meter-high, round brick tower on a fieldstone base is the most striking preserved building. You can reach the viewing platform via 98 steps. The pointed-arch high entrance and a toilet bay on the rear are striking.

The village church of Groß Woltersdorf is a Protestant church, a listed historical monument. The church building dates from 1712 and consists of a timber-framed nave with a polygonal chancel. The current west wall and the rectangular tower were later constructed of brick in 1893. The historic furnishings included a richly carved Baroque pulpit altar, attributed to the Havelberg sculptor Heinrich Joachim Schultz; this was removed and stored during renovations. The organ dates from 1881 and was built by Friedrich Hermann Lütkemüller from Wittstock. The church belongs to the Prignitz deanery of the Evangelical Church of Berlin-Brandenburg-Silesian Upper Lusatia and is protected under Brandenburg's historic preservation laws.

A truly beautiful, historic building in a prominent location. There's much to discover around it; it's well worth spending some time there. The church tower was raised by one story in the 15th century and covered with a new tent roof. This additional story houses the clock and the bell frame.

The Prignitz narrow-gauge railway "Pollo" operates today as a museum railway on a historic narrow-gauge line in the Prignitz region. It commemorates the narrow-gauge railways that were of great importance for passenger and freight transport in the region from the late 19th century onwards. On the route between Mesendorf and Lindenberg, the museum train also stops at Brünkendorf station, which is integrated into the regular service as an intermediate stop. The lovingly restored vehicles and stations provide a vivid impression of regional railway history and make the "Pollo" a popular destination for railway enthusiasts.

The clinic was built around 1886 and is listed as a historic monument in the city of Pritzwalk

The fire disaster of November 1, 1821 reduced the old Pritzwalk and the old town hall to rubble and ashes. The reconstruction of the public buildings took several years. Construction of the town hall did not begin until 1826. The smaller new town hall only partially used the foundations of the previous building. The result was a building of simple form in the style of late classicism. At first, this was only the 28-meter-long main building with a protruding central section. The side buildings and the inner courtyard of the town hall were not built until the middle of the century.
