Polchow lay on Mecklenburg's oldest trade route, the Via Regia, which ran through this area 1,000 years ago and was already used by Slavic and Arab traders. The church in Polchow was built between 1888 and 1891 by Gotthilf Ludwig Möckel and is a neo-Gothic brick building with a recessed choir and a west tower, constructed over a three-year period. The choir windows depict the apostles Peter and Paul. The stone epitaph depicts the Crucifixion in its center, flanked by kneeling family members turning toward the scene of the crucifixion. Above it is the Resurrection. The old linden tree in the cemetery was declared a natural monument in 1937 and is considered the oldest linden tree in Mecklenburg. As early as 1886, its circumference was given as 13 meters.

In the midst of a great hilly landscape in a small wooded area there is the Groß Ridsenow stone grave (also called Goritz or Hell) is a megalithic grave of the Neolithic funnel cup culture near Groß Ridsenow, a district of Wardow. Sturdy shoes are required in any case.

The 1000-year-old linden tree also stands here in the cemetery

Polchow, the oldest village in the Güstrow district, was first mentioned in documents in 1216. At that time it was owned by the Dargun Monastery, which also received patronage rights over the church. The oldest trade route in Mecklenburg, "via regia", passed the site and offered rest and supply facilities in the "taberna" called 1219. Polchow's church, which dates back to the 13th century, was demolished in 1888 due to dilapidation. It was replaced by the church designed by Gotthilf Ludwig Möckel between 1888 and 1891 and built by the Teterower master builder Pitschner. The neo-Gothic brick building with west tower has been extensively restored inside and out in recent years.

Orphaned archaeological monument. Except for one sign there was no information there. The burial mounds can therefore only be guessed at. I think I have seen / photographed at least 2 of them.

At this point there are two large erratic blocks - the twins. You can find inscriptions from the 20s on both stones.

Lieper Castle is a rampart in the municipality of Thelkow in the Rostock district, Mecklenburg-West Pomerania. It is an early Slavic hill castle from the 8th century. The castle stands on a spur-like ledge twenty meters above the Recknitztal. The inner surface of Lieper Castle is relatively large compared to many other Slavic castle complexes in northern Germany. The diameter of the inner surface is over a hundred meters. The castle rampart was heaped up out of sand on the surface of the earth and limited in the core by stone packs. It is 13 m wide at the foot. Deep trenches also protected the plant. A worthwhile hiking destination. The adjacent nature reserve is also very beautiful.
