The best MTB trails around Granziner Lake

Beautiful little place with several places to stop for refreshments.

In Kratzeburg, the "Flatterhus" is located, a national park information center of the Müritz National Park, dedicated to bats. Visitors can expect an interactive exhibition about these fascinating animals as well as information about the region. The Flatterhus is a starting point for cycling tours and is located on the "SpurenWeg" (track path), which is also accessible for the visually impaired. A special highlight is the annual Bat Night with exciting activities. Kratzeburg is ideal for a nature-based cycling tour in the region.

The village church in Kratzeburg was built in 1786 as a simple half-timbered building and is an impressive example of rural religious architecture in the Mecklenburg Lake District. Inside, a colorfully decorated Baroque pulpit altar lends the space a special atmosphere. An art-historical highlight is the late Gothic carved altar from the second half of the 15th century, originally from the church in Schillersdorf, which depicts a detailed crucifixion scene with numerous figures. The organ was built in 1992 in the Neo-Gothic style and blends harmoniously into the overall historical setting. The church is part of the Evangelical Lutheran parish of Kratzeburg, which has been affiliated with the Neustrelitz-Kiefernheide parish since 2010.

There is also delicious soup of the day, great home-made cakes and the most beautiful and bee-friendly garden to see.

It's really funny, you have to look closely to discover all the "gags".

The Heinrich Schliemann Museum was established in 1980. It is dedicated to the most famous son of Ankershagen, Heinrich Schliemann, the world-famous excavator of the ancient cities of Troy, Mycenae and Tiryns. The Schliemann Museum is one of the most important museums in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. After Berlin, it has the most extensive material and scientific collection on the famous archaeologist. In his autobiography, Schliemann writes that he had already made the decision to search for and excavate Troy at the age of eight. His childhood experiences in Ankershagen must have had a great influence on his later life. Ankershagen can point to a long history, a rich world of legends, a knight's castle and many witnesses from ancient times. They obviously permanently inspired the imagination of the young Heinrich Schliemann. ankershagen.de/heinrich-schliemann.html

The Bornsee, Trinnensee, and Mühlensee were the original source lakes of the Havel River. To power a watermill, a dam was built on the southern shore of the Mühlensee in the Middle Ages, and the lake's water was diverted via the Mühlenbach stream toward Ankershagen. After further human intervention, the Havel source was relocated to its current location in 2007. Stones and information boards at the source provide information about the river's course.
