A small and charming café with delicious cakes and hot drinks. I passed by on a very rainy day and was so glad to find a place to stop for refreshments. SIMPLY FANTASTIC!

Walkendorf Church is located on Kastanienallee. It is built entirely of brick and is a very beautiful building. There is a war memorial here, and right next to it is a freestanding bell tower with two bells and the Walkendorf cemetery.

Polchow lay on Mecklenburg's oldest trade route, the Via Regia, which ran through this area 1,000 years ago and was already used by Slavic and Arab traders. The church in Polchow was built between 1888 and 1891 by Gotthilf Ludwig Möckel and is a neo-Gothic brick building with a recessed choir and a west tower, constructed over a three-year period. The choir windows depict the apostles Peter and Paul. The stone epitaph depicts the Crucifixion in its center, flanked by kneeling family members turning toward the scene of the crucifixion. Above it is the Resurrection. The old linden tree in the cemetery was declared a natural monument in 1937 and is considered the oldest linden tree in Mecklenburg. As early as 1886, its circumference was given as 13 meters.

The village of Boddin was first mentioned in 1288. The church stands in the center of the village, confidently raising its 34-meter-high onion dome, rather unusual for Mecklenburg. The interior of the church was restored in 1871 and refurnished with a pulpit, galleries, and pews. The domed ribbed vault in the chancel displays the remains of extensive paintings uncovered between 1985 and 1987. They depict scenes from the Last Judgment, a Passion and Easter cycle, and minuscule inscriptions: Christ before Caiaphas in the western cap, and Christ before Pilate in the northern cap.

The village of Alt Vorwerk was first mentioned in 1273. The manor house was built in 1859/61 for the von Oertzen family, whose coat of arms can still be seen on the house today. After its expropriation in 1945, the house served as a residential property. Restoration has restored the house's pleasant exterior. The park is not accessible.

Dalwitz was a manor village. Since 1349, the land around Dalwitz has been owned by the Counts of Bassewitz. Starting in 1992, Count Heinrich Bassewitz expanded the Dalwitz estate into an organic farm. The farm received the Agricultural Culture Prize in 1999 and the Thünen Medal in 2001. The manor house, built in the Swedish country house style in 1726, was remodeled and expanded in the Tudor style in 1855. After 1992, vacation apartments were built on the estate, as well as a riding stable with a riding facility and a restaurant. This offers numerous options for vacationers. The farm shop and the excellent restaurant "La Remise" offer supplies, as does the nearby small shop "Ihre Kette."
