The church was originally built as a fortified church by farmers from Meesig after the Thirty Years' War. It was first documented in 1255 and originally belonged to the Verchen Monastery before being reintegrated into the Verchen parish.

It was built in the 17th century, probably on the site of an earlier building, from fieldstone mixed with brick and with an eastern half-timbered gable on an approximately square ground plan.

The place is spelled with a double e – thus Meesiger. The late Gothic west tower is the oldest surviving part of the church. It was built of fieldstone on a square ground plan. The upper floor is made of brick with paired pointed-arch sound openings, blind arches, and decorative friezes. It is capped by a brick cornice at the spire. The pointed-arch west portal of the tower has three tiers. The simple nave was built of fieldstone in the 17th century, with the eastern gable constructed in half-timbered style. The walls are partially rendered. The buttresses on the east gable and on the north side were added later. There are four segmental-arch windows on the north side, three on the south side, and two on the east gable. A south portal has been bricked up.

The Sommersdorf estate was owned by the von Maltzahn family, who had their headquarters on the neighboring Kummerow estate. The Rewoldt family is listed as the last owners. After the previous building burned down in 1924, the building was rebuilt in a modified form. During the Nazi era, the manor house was used as a "farm school for the training of young farmers." After 1945, the manor house initially housed refugees, and later it also served as residential accommodation. In 2005, construction work was carried out on the exterior facade and roof of the manor house. Today, the house houses apartments. An outbuilding houses the Sommersdorf Volunteer Fire Department.

Beautiful path along the Tollense, but can also be completely torn up at times. 🐗🐗
