The large, flat-roofed fieldstone church with a rectangular floor plan and a west tower approximately 45 meters high was built in the mid- to late 13th century and rebuilt after suffering severe damage during the Thirty Years' War. The striking tower top with its cupola, lantern, angel, and the inscription "GLORIA" was erected between 1732 and 1735 at the initiative of the church's patron, Carl Friedrich von Sydow Jr., after the nave had been structurally reinforced. Later alterations, particularly during the GDR era, affected the windows, galleries, and interior. The church has been a listed building since 1984 and, after a long period of neglect, was finally able to undergo extensive restoration between 1998 and 2001. You'll find a diamond-shaped stone at the northeast corner, though it's embedded quite high up in the structure.

Since 1756, Blumberg Manor has been owned by the von der Osten family. In 1792, a three-winged manor house was built, and by 1849, numerous architecturally refined outbuildings had been constructed. After 1945, Blumberg became a state-owned estate (VEG); apartments, a factory kitchen, a kindergarten, a municipal office, and a restaurant were built within the manor. In 1996, the von der Osten family acquired the manor house with its courtyard and former manor park and gradually renovated the building and park. The central building of the manor house currently serves as the von der Osten family residence; the south wing, with its ballroom, can be used for events. Development plans for the remaining parts of the house and estate (equestrian center, horse boarding house, holiday apartments, art studios, and apartments) already exist, but the owners are also open to ideas from potential investors. The manor is open to visitors.

The castle park is surrounded by a high wall and is off-limits. It's a bit disappointing that you can only see the castle from one side.

Wartin Castle was built in 1695 under Captain Christoph von der Osten as the manor house of the Wartin manor. It was rebuilt and renovated after 1991 by the "European Academy" association. Today it is used by this association and is a meeting place for artists and scientists from all over the world. Opposite the castle there is a riding stable.

Wartin Palace was built in 1695 under Captain Christoph von der Osten as a manor house for the Wartin manor. The baroque estate complex consists of a castle and surrounding manor buildings, including: former palace warehouse and schnapps distillery, currently housing a cultural barn. There was also a forge, stables and numerous barns. Currently, most of the buildings have been renovated and are used as accommodation facilities and for organizing events such as weddings, family celebrations and corporate events. An associated park and garden complete the complex and are surrounded by a wall of natural stone and brick up to five meters high. This makes the castle park one of the few preserved buildings in northern Brandenburg with a completely brick wall. In terms of cultural history, it is the equivalent of the leading landscape parks of Lenné. An old arched door leads from the park to a beautiful church from the 13th century. The palace is accessible from the outside.
