A beautiful little church and the highlight of Helle.

The eclectic hall church was built in 1913 to replace the dilapidated half-timbered church, designed by Georg Büttner in accordance with the ideas of the Heimat movement, incorporating characteristic Romanesque and Baroque motifs. It consists of a nave, a semicircular choir to the east behind a choir arch, and a church tower at the northwest corner of the nave. The top floor, made of timber framing, houses the bell cage behind the sound arcades designed as bifora. The church tower is capped by an eight-sided, slate-covered, shingled roof. The façade to the west of the nave is topped with a spire gable. The interior is spanned by a segmental-arched, coffered barrel vault. The altarpiece from the previous building, created around 1470, depicting the coronation of Mary, has been preserved.

A truly interesting and legendary place! So, this is where King Hinz from the legend rests! In November 2023, the Royal Hall of Seddin was discovered nearby, the largest of its kind in Northern Europe to date. The building measured 10 meters wide and 31 meters long and likely served as a meeting place. In October 2024, further archaeological discoveries were made, including the remains of a densely built Bronze Age settlement. These finds confirm the importance of the Seddin region as a center of Bronze Age culture and trade.

The Stift zum Heiligengrabe Monastery, a former Cistercian monastery, is the only almost completely preserved monastery in Brandenburg that has been in continuous use since its founding. In 1998, it was designated a cultural monument of national importance. Today, the monastery serves as a meeting place, a cultural center, and a spiritual center. A wide variety of events take place here: devotions, concerts, conferences, retreats, and seminars of various kinds, from bread baking to wild herb weekends, to writing and ceramics courses. You can stay here, book a retreat, relax, or even go hunting. The youth construction workshop of the German Foundation for Monument Protection operates here. A monastery shop is open for purchase. Weddings are possible here, as are excursions, both individual and organized, to the surrounding area and further afield. Guided tours are available, and overnight stays are available. From Heiligengrabe, you can take the train to Wittstock or Berlin/Gesundbrunnen and Wittenberge. Further information https://www.klosterstift-heiligengrabe.de/

The church here in Helle immediately captivated me, what a beautiful village church.

Today, the restored castle houses a museum dedicated to the history of the house and the living culture of the Brandenburg landed gentry, using the example of the Gans Edlen Herren zu Putlitz family. Concerts and civil weddings take place in the castle's beautiful garden hall, and church services are held in the castle chapel, as well as church weddings and baptisms.

The "King's Grave" is considered the most important burial site of the 9th century BC in northern Central Europe. Its enormous size, the special construction of the burial mound, the large stone burial chamber with clay plaster and painting, together with the rich grave furnishings, reflect the existence of a Late Bronze Age elite in the Prignitz.

The fire disaster of November 1, 1821 reduced the old Pritzwalk and the old town hall to rubble and ashes. The reconstruction of the public buildings took several years. Construction of the town hall did not begin until 1826. The smaller new town hall only partially used the foundations of the previous building. The result was a building of simple form in the style of late classicism. At first, this was only the 28-meter-long main building with a protruding central section. The side buildings and the inner courtyard of the town hall were not built until the middle of the century.
