Wrangelsburg Castle is a manor house in Wrangelsburg in the Vorpommern-Greifswald district. It was built in 1880 and has been privately owned since 2017.

An absolutely magical little lake. With a bit of luck, you might even spot eagles! It's very isolated and difficult to reach by car (which is a good thing!), but hiking here is a wonderful experience thanks to the magnificent landscape and forest backdrop! The trail is signposted, even from three directions. Please be as quiet as possible and keep everything perfectly clean!

The current castle was built in 1878. The previous building was converted into a baroque castle in 1652 by Carl Gustav Wrangel, the Swedish general governor of Pomerania. In 1945 it was expropriated and occupied by the Soviet military administration. Today it is in private hands.

The castle is private and not accessible, but walking (not cycling) is allowed on the park paths - it's worth it. A very well-kept facility.

The Söllkensee was created in the 19th century by peat extraction in "Küsterbäcks Moor", a meltwater channel of the Greifswald terminal moraine. Today it is a natural monument and spawning ground for common toads and moor frogs. In the north-eastern part, the new siltation process is clearly visible. A cotton grass peat bog has formed here, which is partly forested with downy birches.

Behind the castle is a very beautiful lake.

The Söllkensee is not written "Sölkensee" but "Söllkensee". The Söllkensee is a bog in the Helmshagener Forest. The Söllkensee was created in the 19th century by peat extraction in "Küsterbäcks Moor", a meltwater channel of the Greifswald terminal moraine. Today it is a natural monument and spawning ground for common toads and moor frogs. In the north-eastern part, the new siltation process is clearly visible. A cotton grass peat bog has formed here, which is partly forested with downy birches (bot.: sheath cotton grass peat moss community, Eriophoro-Sphagnetum recurvi). The floating pondweed (Potamogeton natans) can be discovered in the open water area. The name of the Söllkensee is probably derived from the word "Soll", which describes Ice Age dead ice holes in the north German lowlands and was used here in a somewhat broader sense for a small body of water. Originally, the locals called the lake "dat Sülkenmuur" and at the end of the 19th century it developed into an attraction for those seeking relaxation, who traveled especially with the small train from Greifswald. According to legend, an old privy councilor from Charlottenburg walked here. Impressed by the place, he suggested to the owner of the inn in Potthagen that they set up signposts from the village to the lake and thus show the excursionists the beauty of the area. However, according to the legend, the old privy councilor found the name “Sülkenmuur” too daunting and boggy. And so the “Sülkenmuur” became the Sölkensee. Both names – Sölkensee and Söllkensee – are common today. North of the Söllkensee is the Plagens lime tree. It is said that the forest warden Plagens planted this tree in 1933 and built a bench next to it to enjoy his retirement here. Link: https://weithagen.info/naturweit/soellkensee/
