Tips from the Community
The city wall dates from the second half of the 13th century (partially 13th/14th century) and encloses the historic town center almost without interruption. It is approx. 1,735 meters long, an average of 6–7 meters high, and extends about 2 meters into the ground. It consists mainly of fieldstones (the top often made of brick). At regular intervals of about 25–30 meters, 47 (depending on the source, up to approx. 50–55) semi-circular watch houses are inserted. Templin is particularly characterized by the fact that most of them are designed as open, city-side semi-circular shell towers – a peculiarity that creates the impression of many towers.

The wall survived several city fires (most recently in 1735, almost the entire city) and the Thirty Years' War. From 1990 onwards, it was extensively renovated in 12 sections (completed in 2002). It is considered one of the most complete and beautiful examples of medieval North German small-town fortifications and shapes the historic town center of Templin.

Recommended, even though the steps were already pushed up by the roots towards the end of the tour. In any case, the route is very idyllic and natural. The highlights are marked by signs and by Komoot 👍

Beautiful swimming spot with a sunbathing lawn, a table-bench combination, a small jetty, and a parking lot directly at the swimming spot.

The magnificent little village, located extremely lonely on the edge of the forest, is laid out in an L-shape and has beautiful half-timbered houses everywhere on both axes. Quite difficult to reach by car and bike due to the bumpy "road" full of cobblestones.

The boulder is a great place to sit, a lovely resting spot.

Picturesque in principle, yes, especially if it's flowering season, but as a cyclist you have to concentrate fully on the poor path. The concrete slabs are awful, and later in the small wood, it's even very steep uphill if you're heading towards Potzlow and have the great viewpoint as your destination. Cars also drive here, and it's very annoying every time you have to stop and get off your bike!
