history

Pilgrim signs on one of the three bells in the village church of Protzen on the pilgrimage route Berlin – Wilsnack

Protzen is a street village of Slavic origin and was first mentioned as a parish village in 1324. The place name is said to be derived from Slavic , from "place where millet grows". The village with its stone church is on the pilgrimage route from Berlin to Wilsnack . Around 1490 Protzen was part of the Ruppin rule, which was essentially imperial, under the rule of the Counts of Lindow-Ruppin .

During the Thirty Years War in 1638 the village was destroyed. In the years 1718, 1727, 1823, and 1831, further major destruction by fires followed. The von Gadow , Quast , Kleist , Drieberg , and Legde families were among the owners of the local estate .

As the peat began to be extracted, the village population doubled to over 500 between 1874 and 1892.

Theodor Fontane describes Protzen and its inhabitants in detail in one of his works. He wrote that the manor park was one of the most beautiful manor parks in the region.
