Sturgeon waterway

The church village Plate (Plote - Slavic word for fence) is mentioned as early as 1191. In a papal deed it was stated that the income from the shipping customs in Plate should be used to procure lights for the Schwerin Cathedral. At the time, the cathedral chapter acquired a great deal of land in Plate, later it passed into dominal property, and the dukes granted the place customs and fishing rights. Plate developed into a farming and Büdner village. In 1567 the first bridge with an associated customs office was built over the Stör.

The patronage for the church was in sovereign possession from the beginning. According to a church visit protocol from 1534, the dukes Heinrich and Albrecht appointed Johann Flomhelt to be Lord of the Church of Plate and their daughter churches in Banzkow and Consrade in 1518. There is evidence that Peckatel became a daughter church of Plate in 1596. In 1849 the church in Plate was built as a neo-Gothic brick building based on a design by the Schwerin architect Theodor Krüger .

After the surrender of Germany in 1945, Plate temporarily ran the demarcation line between the Red Army and the troops of the Western powers.
