geography
The municipality of Hornstorf borders directly on the Hanseatic city of Wismar in the west and is about five kilometers from the Wismar Bay .
Hornstorf is surrounded by the neighboring communities of Krusenhagen in the north, Neuburg in the northeast, Benz in the east, Zurow in the southeast, Lübow in the south and Wismar in the west.
The districts of Kritzow, Rohlstorf and Rüggow belong to Hornstorf.
history
Hornstorf (then as Hornestorp) was first mentioned in a document in 1282.
With the Peace of Westphalia in 1648, Rüggow became Swedish with the office of Neukloster , the rule of Wismar and the Mecklenburg part of the island of Poel . It was not until 1903, 100 years after the Malmö pledge agreement of 1803 , that Sweden renounced the redemption of this agreement, and the town fell back to Mecklenburg.
In 1883 the community got a rail connection with the Wismar – Rostock line. Four years later, a branch line followed to Karow via Neukloster and Goldberg , which has since been closed.
The typical farms on the Schwedenschanze came into being during the settlement period in the 1930s.
On July 1, 1950, the previously independent municipality of Kritzow was incorporated.
The NVA's radio reconnaissance center (FuAZ Nord) was stationed in Rüggow until the fall of the Berlin Wall .

Coat of arms, flag, official seal
The municipality has no officially approved national emblem, neither a coat of arms nor a flag. The official seal is the small state seal with the coat of arms of the state of Mecklenburg. It shows a looking bull's head with torn off neck fur and crown and the inscription "GEMEINDE HORNSTORF • LANDKREIS NORDWESTMECKLENBURG".
Attractions
The village church of St. Laurentius , built in Gothic style, is the oldest building in the village. The brick church was first mentioned in 1327. However, the church is likely to be a bit older, probably like Hornstorf, which was mentioned 55 years earlier. The simple square west tower was added in the second half of the 15th century.
economy
The 34 hectare industrial area near the Wismar motorway junction is important for the community . Many companies have settled here and have created several hundred jobs.
