The Sommersdorf estate was owned by the von Maltzahn family, who had their headquarters on the neighboring Kummerow estate. The Rewoldt family is listed as the last owners. After the previous building burned down in 1924, the building was rebuilt in a modified form. During the Nazi era, the manor house was used as a "farm school for the training of young farmers." After 1945, the manor house initially housed refugees, and later it also served as residential accommodation. In 2005, construction work was carried out on the exterior facade and roof of the manor house. Today, the house houses apartments. An outbuilding houses the Sommersdorf Volunteer Fire Department.

The medieval village church, with its rich Baroque interior, still contains elements dating back to the mid-13th century. However, it was renovated and altered in 1760. The church contains three gravestones of members of the old Mecklenburg noble family of Maltzahn. Dating back to 1227, the church is in good condition thanks to restoration in the late 1980s. Among the church's special features are the richly decorated pulpit altar and the Grüneberg organ, built around 1850.

St. John's Church is a typical North German brick Gothic building. The church consists of a 42-meter-long and 22-meter-high nave, a choir, a vestibule, and a massive, offset tower. The accessible 65-meter-high tower offers a fantastic panorama of Mecklenburg Switzerland all the way to Lake Kummerow.
