Beautiful climb from Hohenfelde and then a wide view to Rostock, Warnemünde and the Baltic Sea. Good introduction to the Stülower Alps.

The Molli is a real attraction. It drives right through the city center via a pedestrian zone. Very nice.

Inside the church, the dome vault contains 14th-century frescoes that were discovered and restored in 1899. The women painted in the choir vault depict the parable of the wise and foolish virgins. On the east wall of the nave is a solitary painting of the Deposition from the Cross, and in the choir arch opposite the pulpit is a depiction of the Flagellation of Jesus.

Lands that Pribislaw donated to the Doberan Monastery upon its founding in 1171. The church was established by the monastery shortly thereafter. Around 1300, Rabenhorst (Rethwisch) temporarily belonged to the parish. On April 7, 1333, Duke Albrecht II granted the monastery jurisdiction over Parkentin. The church belonged to the monastery's archdeaconry until 1552. After the secularization and dissolution of the monastery, the site came under the ducal domain. The first Protestant pastor appointed by the duke, not the abbot, was Brand Meseke in 1557.
