geography
Klempenow is east of the state road 35 (formerly federal highway 96 ) and west of the federal highway 20 , whose connection Anklam is northeast of the place. Mainly the lower slopes north and south of the Tollensee lowlands as well as the area around the historical ford and the castle Klempenow are built up .
The Tollense , coming from the south, flows through the village and enters the Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania border valley. Here it takes up the Great Landgraben running to the east and flows through the glacial valley in a north-westerly direction to the Peene . To the east of the castle, the Tollense is regulated by a weir . There is a resting place for water hikers here .
history
To the west of the village is the rest of a Slavic castle complex, as well as 3 burial mounds from the Bronze Age, but not all of them have been preserved. Klempenow then emerged from a medieval castle settlement, which was probably expanded in the 13th century as part of a number of other border fortifications by order of the Pomeranian dukes . In 1331 Klempenow was first mentioned in a document as the lordly castle of the Dukes of Pomerania . Evidently from 1363, but probably earlier, the noble family von Heydebreck was resident on Klempenow and other estates. After the death of Heinrich V von Heydebreck († before 1520) the fiefdom was withdrawn by Duke Bogislaw X. In sovereign property, Klempenow and the castle were the center of a sovereign office . The administration was carried out by an official governor . During the Thirty Years' War Klempenow was captured by Swedish troops in 1630 and belonged to Swedish Pomerania until 1721 . Then the place with the rest of the Western Pomerania officially came to Prussia . As a Prussian state domain, the Klempenower Gut belonged to the Anklamer district until 1818, then to the Demmin district and was managed by tenants until 1945. At the end of the 18th century, 14 villages and 9 Vorwerke belonged to the Klempenow domain office, these were Bartow , Below, Breest, Burow , Klatzow , Klempenow, Gnevkow , Golchen , Kölln, Letzin , Mühlenhagen , Peeselin , Rosemarsow and Welzin.
In 1862 Klempenow had 204 inhabitants. In 1939 there were 182 inhabitants.
In 1962 Klempenow was incorporated into Breest.
