The Bobzin hydroelectric power station near Lübz benefits from the steep gradient of the Elde River there: The adjacent lock, with a lift height of 6.80 meters, is considered the deepest in Mecklenburg. The Zieher family took over the power station and the farmstead of the caretakers' families in 1993. The house has since served as a guesthouse. A vertical water turbine installed in the power station in 1999 once again generates electricity. It also serves as an exhibition space for the Museum of Regional Electricity Supply. The coal shortage after the First World War, among other things, triggered the construction of these facilities. The hydroelectric power station of the Mecklenburg-Schwerin State Electricity Works and the Bobzin lock were built between 1923 and 1925. To integrate this lock into the course of the Elde, a section of the river was straightened, and locks dating back to 1803 were decommissioned. Two of these can still be found in Fahrenhorst and Forsthof near Kuppentin. The power plant remained in operation until its Soviet dismantling in 1946 and, using new technology, began generating electricity again in 1954. Due to technical problems and water shortages (agriculture required a lot of water), the plant was shut down again in 1974.

From the southeastern shore of Lake Malchow, there is an impressive view of the former Malchow Monastery, situated on a small hill on the opposite shore. The striking red brick buildings with their tall church towers dominate the town's panorama and, when the water is calm, are atmospherically reflected in the lake. The former Magdalene Convent, later a Cistercian monastery and finally a noble women's convent, is now an important cultural monument. The viewing point on the lakeshore is easily accessible via the cycling and hiking path and invites you to take a short rest with a view of the historic skyline of Old Malchow.

Pictures taken after parts of the nave collapsed in 2004, and this is what it looks like today, after a magnificent reconstruction. More information is available from the dedicated local people.

Attention houseboat captains, don’t fall asleep, there’s a bend here!

Interesting building with history

The tour is very connected to nature and yet the route is easy to ride.....

The Malchow Monastery Art Museum presents works of art in historically restored rooms and offers an impressive experience of regional art history. The monastery's former refectory houses the works and study of the Malchow-born artist Rudolf Gahlbeck (1895–1972), as well as works by Sieghard Dittner (1924–2002), who lived in Malchow for many years; Friedrich-Franz Pingel (1904–1994), also born in Malchow; and Peter Hesse (1921–2008).
