history

The village of Cammin was first mentioned in 1226. The reason for this was the granting of four hooves to the Güstrow collegiate monastery by Prince Heinrich Borwin II. The lords of Kammin or Kemmyn settled here as vassals. A lifting roller from 1319 shows that the Sonnenkamp monastery also had rights in Cammin. In 1347 a miner Hoppe von Cammin is mentioned, whose family died out in the first quarter of the 16th century. The daughters of the last owner sold the property of four farms and 7½ Hufen, which their father got from Duke Magnus and Balthasar as a fief in 1487 , to Dietrich Bevernest . He was obliged to leave the daughters in "quiet possession of the property" until their death. Bevernest sold his property to the ducal bailiff Achim von Koss . In the following times, several lawsuits broke out between the Koss family members. Debt led to Duke Gustav Adolph von Mecklenburg-Güstrow taking over the Cammin estate in 1667 and paying off the creditors. In 1672 he handed it over to the governor of Dargun Georg von Mecklenburg. Georg's first wife, Margaretha Hedwig, née von Bassewitz , lived in Cammin until 1709 . The owners then changed several times , until Hereditary Prince Friedrich took over the estates of Cammin, Deperstorf and Prangendorf in 1747 . The estate thus belonged to the Güstrow-Rossewitz office as a domain estate.

The dolmen in the forest of Cammin , an ancient dolmen described in 1931 and the remains of another indeterminable megalithic complex are located in the municipality .

Attractions

Church in Cammin

Cammin is the seat of an Evangelical parish office and has a stone church consecrated to St. Lawrence of Rome around 1240 with a late Gothic winged altar (Rostock workshop in 1515) and a baroque organ . This was built in 1724 by Hans Hantelmann , a student of Arp Schnitger . The organ was restored with the help of the Zeit Foundation and is one of the most valuable musical instruments in the country due to its largely original condition.

The former domain tenant house, built in the last quarter of the 19th century, is located near the church. Today it houses a free primary school, supported by a parents' initiative.
