A Slavic rampart from 1160, in a rectangular shape 55 × 45 meters, lies on a peninsula in the episcopal garden on Lankower Strasse. From there, an elevation, popularly known as the “ford”, stretches under water over to the old Landwehr ditch on the Neumühler bank. This long, stony shoal is not shown on any official map. In the course of 1300 the cathedral chapter acquired the whole village. Around 1350 there were three knight courts in Lankow, the Lords of Raven, von Driberg and von Zickhusen.

In 1978 the pasture meadows behind the street Am Neumühler See to Neumühler Weg were released for home building. The housing shortage in the GDR was to be alleviated under the socialist slogan. With the obligation not to use any “state building capacities”, the very individual and adventurous housing construction began on an undeveloped pastureland. Water and electricity were installed during the construction. So young people built a new residential area "behind the boarding school complex" with terraced houses, beginning in Ahornstrasse and ending with semi-detached houses in Eichenstrasse, after work, on weekends and on public holidays under great personal strain.

traffic
The city center of Schwerin can be reached from Lankow by tram in 15 minutes, the Great Dreesch in 25 minutes. The Lankow-Siedlung stop is the end of the busiest tram line 2, which runs every 15 minutes during rush hour. The bus lines 13, 14, 17 and 18 provide connections to other parts of the city. The district has a stop on the Schwerin – Rehna railway line , which is served every hour on weekdays.
Federal highway 104 ran through the district until 2007, but after the completion of another construction section of the Schwerin bypass, its course was changed, so that it only affects Lankow in the west today. A citizens' initiative on Ahornstrasse and the fact that a GRP pedestrian bridge was being tested ensured that the Lankow residential estate was not cut off from Lake Neumühler. A GRP suspension bridge was built across the L 72 bypass through democratic citizens' participation. In a north-westerly direction, the busy L03 state road leads from Lankow to Grevesmühlen .
