The church was built in the 13th century and has remained a ruin since its destruction in 1440.

An incredibly solid masonry of precisely hewn fieldstones characterizes this fairly well-preserved ruin. Considering that it has remained in this condition since 1440, this is also quite astonishing. The original church was built in the mid-13th century and fell victim to a major war. Lychen was conquered in the Pomeranian-Brandenburg War (1329-1333).

The town of Lychen was founded as early as 1248. Lychen has a Baroque town hall on the market square, originally built on an older town hall site. Throughout its history, it has experienced several fires: in 1633, a fire caused great devastation, and in 1732, the town hall burned down again to its foundations. In 1748, it was rebuilt as a two-story, Baroque plastered building with a tower and mansard roof. In 1817, the town hall received a clock. In 1945, it partially burned down again. The final reconstruction took place in 1956/57, but without the tower and clock for cost reasons. In front of the town hall stands an oversized thumbtack, invented by Johann Kirsten in Lychen in 1903. The town hall now serves as the seat of the Lychen city administration and is centrally located on the market square and in the town center.

The Rafting Museum in Lychen is located in the historic fire station and reopened on July 20, 2008, after extensive renovations. It is dedicated to the tradition of rafting in the region and offers insights into this ancient craft.
