The Wanzka Mill is a historic mill ruin in the Wanzka district of the Blankensee municipality. It is located near Lake Wanzka on the Nonnenbach stream, in the heart of the Nonnenbachtal nature reserve. The mill was originally built in the 16th century as a grain mill and later developed into one of the largest milling sites in the Mecklenburg-Strelitz district. Partially destroyed during World War II, the mill remained in operation until the 1950s, continuing to supply electricity to the surrounding area. In the GDR, there were plans to make more intensive use of the Nonnenbach stream's hydropower, which is still evident today in the mill's structural design – with several water chambers for wheels and later turbines. Today, the Wanzka Mill is a three-story ruin and a popular destination for hikers and nature lovers. It offers not only impressive insights into the region's technical and industrial history but also picturesque views of the surrounding lakes and hills.

Very worth seeing, you have to see it

Very suitable for a short break to cool down and relax.

Small bathing establishment...freely accessible, plenty of places to sit. Longer jetty with ladder or direct access to the water...unfortunately a bit overgrown with weeds.

Take a short break and linger.

Unfortunately the church was locked. The interior is magnificently furnished with a pulpit altar in white, blue and gold. I visited the church years ago. The church was built between 1747 and 1749 on an octagonal base by the Peckatel family. The turret refers to the fashionable trend towards chinoiserie at the time.

As early as the 13th century, Weisdin belonged to the von Peccatel family (also: von Peckatel), a now extinct Mecklenburg noble family. They built a castle here, the remains of which are still preserved. The ruins on the southern bank of the Middle Lake are one of the better preserved hilltop castles in Northern Germany with clearly visible remains of the main and outer baileys, keep and moat.

After a fire around 1740 destroyed the old manor house and almost the entire village, Gotthard Carl Friedrich von Peckatel had the two-story, nine-axis manor house built in the Baroque style on the north bank of the Middle Lake in 1749. At the same time, the remarkable church building was built opposite on an octagonal base. In 1761 Weisdin came into the possession of the Duke of Mecklenburg-Strelitz Adolph Friedrich IV. The estate was leased a few years later and the respective tenants lived in the castle. At the end of the 19th century, a winter garden with outside stairs was added to the building on the park side. After 1918, Weisdin became the property of the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg and became the property of the Free State of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. After 1945, the manor house served various uses, such as a cultural center, school and restaurant. The manor house was restored in 1997, and the ducal coat of arms in the gable triangle also shone in new splendor. South of the lake there is a ruined castle of the Knights of Peckatel.
