The village church of Rühstädt, also known as Quitzow Church, dates back to the 15th century. It was built under the influence of the noble von Quitzow family, who shaped the village for a long time. The original late Gothic brick building with a semicircular apse was remodeled in the Baroque style in the 18th century and a striking west tower was added. Important furnishings have been preserved inside, including a late Gothic carved altarpiece, several tombstones of the von Quitzow family, and a historic organ from 1738. A late Gothic mural of the Last Judgment in the apse is particularly noteworthy. Today, the church is a listed building and part of the Open Churches Initiative, meaning it is often open to visitors.

I particularly like the cycle path between the Elbe and the Havel tributaries, from Gnevsdorf to Quitzöbel. It's pure nature. There are two observation towers from which you can easily observe many animals, especially birds. Coming from Wittenberge, cycle over the Gnevsdorf weir and at the oxbow weir, return to the mainland to Quitzöbel, then cycle back to Wittenberge or to Netzow and then on to Werben and Havelberg.

Rühstädt is known throughout Germany as the "Stork Village" – a reputation that the idyllic Elbe village owes to its exceptionally high number of breeding white storks. Since 1996, Rühstädt has officially held the title of "European Stork Village," awarded by the European Natural Heritage Foundation (Euronatur), and has since been considered an outstanding example of successful coexistence between humans and nature. A central element of the village is the NABU Visitor Center, which provides vivid information about the lives of storks and the ecological importance of the Elbe valley. A highlight of the year is the popular Stork Festival, which attracts visitors from near and far and celebrates the close connection between the village and its feathered summer guests. Today, Rühstädt symbolizes successful species conservation and nature-oriented, sustainable village development. It impressively demonstrates how careful land use, committed nature conservation and village tradition can work together to preserve a unique habitat – for storks and people alike.

Bad Wilsnack is a worthwhile destination for a cycling tour, as it offers a perfect blend of culture, history, and relaxation. The town is particularly known for the imposing Church of the Holy Blood (St. Nikolai), a former pilgrimage site that dominates the townscape. The historic town center, with its restored half-timbered houses, provides a vivid impression of the local history. Extensive parks, easily incorporated into a cycling tour, and the Kristall spa and graduation tower offer further opportunities for relaxation. Thanks to its connection to regional cycling routes in the Prignitz region, Bad Wilsnack is ideal both as a stopover and as a starting point for further tours in the surrounding area.
