Tips from the Community

Michael (mimirsbrunnen)
October 26, 2026, Landskron Castle Ruins

In popular belief, Landskron, along with the neighboring castles of Spantekow, Klempenow, and Conerow, was considered a robber baron's nest. The lords were said to have attacked merchants between Anklam, Demmin, Friedland, and other cities. Particularly curious: they allegedly communicated using golden horns, which were said to have been captured from "Turkish" guards during the time of Barbarossa. According to legend, one tower (hunger tower) served as a prison for hostages held for ransom.

The name "Landgraben" literally means "border ditch" or "land defense". For centuries, it formed the northern border of the eastern part of Mecklenburg-Strelitz and was part of the historical border between Mecklenburg and Pomerania (or later the Prussian province of Pomerania).

The stables are made of fieldstone with brick elements. Partly ruined, but still in use!

The road was finally completely renovated in 2023. It now has asphalt and is great to drive between Zinzow and Kavelpas!

The Veste Landskron is a little off the beaten path on a single-lane country road. But a visit is absolutely worth it, because the ruins are comparatively very well preserved. A club takes care of the maintenance and does a great job! The castle ruins are very winding and resemble an adventure playground. There is something new to discover around every corner and one intention is more beautiful than the other. Absolutely worth seeing! 💚
