    The 1000-year-old linden tree also stands here in the cemetery

    Translated by Google •

      Polchow lay on Mecklenburg's oldest trade route, the Via Regia, which ran through this area 1,000 years ago and was already used by Slavic and Arab traders.
      The church in Polchow was built between 1888 and 1891 by Gotthilf Ludwig Möckel and is a neo-Gothic brick building with a recessed choir and a west tower, constructed over a three-year period. The choir windows depict the apostles Peter and Paul. The stone epitaph depicts the Crucifixion in its center, flanked by kneeling family members turning toward the scene of the crucifixion. Above it is the Resurrection.
      The old linden tree in the cemetery was declared a natural monument in 1937 and is considered the oldest linden tree in Mecklenburg. As early as 1886, its circumference was given as 13 meters.
