Schwartow Hunting Lodge
Highlight • Historical Site
Over the centuries, Schwartow's landowners changed frequently. After the old Schwartow manor house burned down in 1922, Eduard Guhl had the new building built in the style of a hunting lodge elsewhere in 1923. It is now used as a hotel with a restaurant.
After 1930, the estate was repopulated, and by 1938 20 new farms had been built.
Some of the farm buildings, some of which were very large, have been preserved and are still in use.

EinFlussReich Outdoor Exhibition
Highlight • Structure
A very interesting exhibition that shows how far the Elbe could flood the country if the dikes could not withstand the water pressure during floods.
Living on a river like the Elbe has many advantages that people have used for centuries. At the same time, they had to protect themselves from the dangers of flooding and built dikes and dams.
The open-air exhibition EinFlussReich, in the immediate vicinity of the well-known Elwkieker observation tower, provides information about the topic of flooding with playful content. You can find out how people experienced the floods on the Elbe, how effective flood protection is, and which flood protection projects have already been implemented on the Elbe. Using the interactive exhibition elements, you can become a decision-maker yourself and see whether the flood measures help protect Boizenburg from flooding.

Historic Milestone on Bundesstraße 5 Between Lauenburg and Boizenburg
Highlight • Monument
Great that such relics have stood the test of time and today report from the past.
The list of milestones on Bundesstraße 5 in Mecklenburg is a tabular listing of full and half milestones on the Mecklenburg section of the former chaussee between Hamburg and Berlin, which is now part of Bundesstraße 5. Because of the construction of bypasses in Boizenburg and Grabow, the course of the B 5 was relocated there and the stones stood or stand on the former course of the road. After completion of the parallel A 14 in this section in 2017, the B 5 between the Grabow junction and the state border with Brandenburg was downgraded to state road 072.
Milestones and half-milestones have been preserved in Mecklenburg from the time the road was built. On the whole milestones there are cast-iron plaques with distances to Berlin, Hamburg and Ludwigslust. The main milestone in Ludwigslust is the highest and oldest milestone in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.
1 Prussian mile = 7.5325 km, German land(es) mile (Denmark, Hamburg, Prussia)

St. Laurentius Church Nostorf
Highlight • Religious Site
On October 2, 1483, the then Bishop of Ratzeburg consecrated a chapel as a branch of St. George's Church in Zweedorf in honor of St. Laurentius at the site of today's church. The document issued about it was discovered by workers in 1863 during renovation work under the stone altar of the chapel in the ground. It was in a glass cylinder and was walled in again under the new altar with a new document in the same year.
As part of this work, the chapel was rebuilt into a neo-Gothic brick church with a dodecagon choir ending. The originally free-standing wooden bell tower was replaced by a brick tower in 1904. One of the bells included bore the date 1591, the other still contained an Old Slavic inscription. In 1944 both bells were taken away to be melted down and were lost in the Hamburg Bell Cemetery. A new bell was purchased in the mid-1950s.
In 1999 the roof of the tower and the nave as well as two outer pillars and the cemetery wall surrounding the churchyard were renewed with patronage funds and a grant from the Nostorf municipality. By 2006 the interior of the building, the organ (Friese organ from 1890) and an electronic chime had been extensively renovated.

Schwanheide Chapel
Highlight • Religious Site
The Schwanheide Chapel was inaugurated on June 19, 1955.
The chapel was initially known as the "Christian teaching barracks". The first evidence of planning can be found in 1953, the construction itself took place essentially in 1955. The chapel was also inaugurated in the same year.
Until 1961, Schwanheide belonged to the Protestant parish of Zweedorf. After the establishment of the inner-German border on August 13, 1961, it was spun off from Zweedorf. Shortly thereafter, the small wooden chapel was built based on the Swedish model. In 1991 the free-standing belfry was added. The bronze bell hanging in it was cast in 1651 and comes from the destroyed church in Zweedorf.
