You have to see and experience this historical place. Alt Rehse is known for the medical school that was founded there in 1935.
The village was first mentioned in 1182, in the following years until 1939 it was to become and has become a model village. 22 half-timbered houses were built in the years and named after German districts. In addition to the crooks' names, there is also the year of construction in the crossbar of the house. and since the empire should be at least a thousand years old, it says, for example. Erected in the 3rd year in the crossbar (it is the year after the seizure of power) an architectural dream and historically unique in Germany. In order to build this model village, all of the town's buildings except for the church, the school, the rectory and the later village jug were demolished.
You can get to Alt Rehse via various hiking trails, for example. from Neubrandenburg or Kuckukssee. By car from Wulkenzin or by boat across the Tollensesee.

Alt Rehse is a thatched village developed from 1935 to 1939 as a model village. However, the castle and the surrounding area belong to a private investor and may not be entered during construction. This gives Alt Rehse's visit a big drop of bitterness. Even the way to the ferry pier is strictly prescribed and must not be left. We wanted to use the old route suggested by Komoot to the jetty when an electrically operated gate started to close in front of us. Then we discovered surveillance cameras everywhere.

The Tollensesee extends south of Neubrandenburg, the third largest city in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. On maps it has the shape of a bratwurst. The landscape around it is slightly hilly, full of beeches, birches, linden trees, poplars and elms - a playground for deer, wild boars and, in late summer, mushroom hunters.

On the south bank, horses graze in meadows next to the golfer's greens. The magnificent Hohenzieritz Castle and the Prillwitz Hunting Lodge are also located there. If you cycle around the lake (almost 40 kilometers), you will pass the village of Alt Rehse in the west. Here the idyll gets a stale taste.

"HAUS LEIPZIG ERECTED IN THE 3RD YEAR."

The lettering stamped into a crossbar above the yellow-painted shutters of the half-timbered house with the reed roof is irritating. Not just unsuspecting bike tourists on their way around Lake Tollensesee. Even us, who knew where we were going, have to swallow. In the third year of what? "In the third year of the millennium".

House Leipzig in Alt Rehse
Alt Rehse, the "jewel on Lake Tollensesee" (village prospectus), was built bit by bit by the Nazis from 1934 on a patch previously razed to the ground as a kind of model settlement with Low German-looking houses made of half-timbered and brick. Even in the “fourth” or “fifth year” houses were added. Many have names from "Gauen" such as "Mecklenburg", "Pommern", "Kurhessen" or "Schlesien".

Only the Dorfkrug, the neo-Gothic church from the end of the 19th century and the parsonage, remnants of the previous village, had been taken with them by the Nazis. In addition, the somewhat secluded Liechtenstein Castle, built in the late 19th century under Ludwig Baron von Hauff.
