The St. Mary's Church with its massive tower attracts attention as a landmark of Ribnitz from afar. Three major city fires destroyed the church again and again, but it was rebuilt again and again.

Ribnitz is first mentioned in a document from 1233. In the second quarter of the 13th century, the original three-aisled late Romanesque hall church was laid out, similar in layout to the town church in Gadebusch. This brick building can only be recognized as a remnant in the western part, namely in the form of the arched frieze and the paired lancet windows on the north side.

The church was often rebuilt. In the 14th century, the additions to the east followed by two yokes with outer struts. The two preserved pointed arch portals in the longitudinal walls also date from this period. A fire in 1455 led to larger, uniform redesigns. The choir with a yoke and a three-aisled corridor was added, with the struts being placed inside. On the north and south sides there is a broad-arched portal from the 14th century decorated with glazed stones. The mansard roof over the longitudinal nave was built after a fire in 1759.

The massive, square west tower was only built after the fire in 1455. It has three floors. The two upper floors have all-round bezel rows and tracery friezes. The curly, baroque dome on the tower is crowned by a neo-Gothic lantern with a pointed tower helmet from 1841 to 1843, designed by the Schwerin court architect Georg Adolf Demmler.

The simple interior design was shaped by the renovation measures from the time after the fire of 1759, when the Gothic vaults were lost. The appearance is determined by the seven square pillars (bricked oak and plastered half-timbered pillars), the segmental arcades, the wooden barrel vault over the central nave and the wooden flat ceilings over the side aisles. The choir aisle is separated from the side aisles by a half-high wall.
