History and architecture

The short nave and the west tower of the same width were begun in field stone at the end of the 13th century and completed in brick in the first half of the 14th century . In the lower area of ​​the north, west and south walls, the field stone extends to about half the height of the wall, the brick area on the west wall is plastered. The choir with a three-sided end and outer buttresses was also added in the first half of the 14th century and the nave and choir were ribbed and the vaults rest on consoles . The choir is a little lower than the nave, its three walls are divided by a Gothic window each. A flat ceiling was later drawn into the narrow tower yoke ; it is separated from the ship by a belt arch . The upper parts of the tower were destroyed by fire in 1699 after a lightning strike. At the beginning of the 18th century, the building was covered with a hipped roof, which is crowned with a low wooden tower top, it is, like the roof area, covered with red tiles. Until 1989 the building was covered with the traditional roofing of the once common monk-nun cover . When the roof was re-roofed in 1990, the original condition on the north side of the tower was preserved for illustrative purposes. The walls are divided by narrow arched windows. The portal in the south wall of the ship is provided with inserted round bars. The annex on the south side of the choir was added in the 15th century, the front gable is stepped. The walls in the interior are partly painted with ornaments . The north gallery was built in 1671 as a patronage box, it shows on the parapet carved and painted coats of arms of the von Oertzen family , who owned the neighboring Gorow estate , as well as their ancestors from the Zülow , Wackerbarth and Reventlow families .

On the left side of the cemetery there is an obelisk that was erected in memory of Pastor Johann Jacob Mussäus . Musäus researched fairy tales, legends, customs and traditions in Mecklenburg.
