The church stands in a cemetery surrounded by a dry stone wall and forms a beautiful ensemble with the old rectory. Schwinkendorf was originally a free peasant village (only later a manorial estate). The mighty rectangular west tower made of brick was added in 1495 and gives the church an imposing, almost castle-like appearance. Curious: A free peasant donated it to the church, which was already around 250 years old at the time. According to legend, one could see as far as Rostock, about 75 km away, from the top of the tower.

Anyone who comes here for the view will be very disappointed. The trees don't allow any view. They must have forgotten that trees grow when they put this little tower here. It would have to be 10 m higher if you want to look over the trees. But the weeping beech 50m further on is huge and very interesting if you look inside.

Here it goes steeply downhill. In the village, however, uphill again after turning right. The Mecklenburg Switzerland is almost reached.
