Tornow Castle

After the medieval stone church from the 13th century burned down several times, it was reconstructed in the neo-Gothic style in 1837/1838 . The plan for the church tower comes from the builder Schinkel . The churchyard is now a meadow used as pasture , the church was sold to private customers in 2013.

Tornow was a manor village until 1945; for centuries it was owned by the von Buch family . The first verifiable manor house burned down in 1726, it was demolished after 1883. The new manor house, which has been preserved to this day, had previously been built. The plans for the stately neo-Gothic building go back to the Strelitz court master builder Georg Daniel .

The mansion has served as a non-governmental educational facility with overnight accommodation since 1993. The Tornow Templar Commandery has its headquarters in the neighborhood (barn building) . While it was being repaired, it became a location for the road movie We can do it differently ... by Detlev Buck .

On the road to Blumenow is the street oak with a chest height of 7.80 m (2016).
