history

Krackow : The name is of Slavic origin and could mean place of crows ( Kracac = croak) or derived from krk = neck and refer to the geographical location in a brook valley between lakes and the wide Randow valley. According to archaeological findings, the Slavic foundation of the town took place around AD 600. The first documented mention of the place was in 1271 when Otto von Ramin gave the Franciscans in Stettin an elevation from his property in Krackow.

Battinsthal was laid out as a Vorwerk in the 17th century , and there is a burial chapel in the manor park.

Schuckmannshöhe was laid out in 1824 by Chamberlain Carl Friedrich von Schuckmann as a Vorwerk von Battinsthal.

Hohenholz is over 700 years old and used to be a manor . The local stone church with a half-timbered tower was renovated. The manor house, a two-storey plastered brick building, was built in the Baroque style in 1840 for the von Eickstedt family , who owned the property from 1280 to 1945.

Lebehn was first mentioned in 1490. Together with the place Kyritz (first mentioned in 1523) Lebehn lies in a lake area.
