history
From the 12th century until today
The Großdolmen von Mankmoos , the Urdolmen von Mankmoos , the Großdolmen Groß Labenz 1 and a large stone grave in the rectangular barn are the oldest relics in the city.
The name Warin was first mentioned in 1178. In 1229 the Bishop of Schwerin began building a "summer residence", four years later Bishop Brunward first mentioned Warin as a church village. The bishop's castle founded by Bishop Hermann I von Schladen in 1263 was mentioned in 1284 as "under construction". The settlement developed under the protection of the castle already had a council in 1306, so it was a town. However, the exact date of the granting of the town charter is not verifiable. The bishop's castle was partially destroyed at Pentecost 1322, the bishopric pledged. Only under Bishop Friedrich II von Bülow could the bishopric be redeemed and the castle repaired after 1366. Under Bishop Nicolaus Böddeker , the castle was fundamentally restored and expanded in 1447/48.
By the beginning of the Thirty Years' War , the population rose to 250. In 1628 Danish troops occupied Warin, from 1634 to 1635 Swedish dragoons under Lieutenant Colonel Osterling. In 1636 much of the city burned down. At the end of the Thirty Years War Warin still had 45 citizens.
In 1648 the places Warin and Bibow came to the Mecklenburg duchy . A second major fire destroyed large parts of the city in 1773. From 1833 to 1926 Warin was the seat of the Office Warin, Neukloster, Sternberg and Tempzin. Wismar, which was returned to Mecklenburg on loan in 1803, was also temporarily administered from here. The bishop's castle was demolished in 1838, the castle cellars were preserved. On the site of the castle, the grand ducal Landdrostei was built as the administrative seat.
From 1851 Warin was a country town in Mecklenburg and as such one of the towns in the Mecklenburg district . Until 1918 it was represented on an equal footing in the Mecklenburg state parliaments of the estates united in 1523 . On August 17, 1869, the Warin volunteer fire department was founded. It is one of the oldest fire brigades in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. In 1878 the neo-Gothic collegiate church was consecrated. In 1887 Warin received a railway connection to the Wismar – Karow line .
The power station supplied the mill with electricity for the first time in 1906, and in 1932 the former Landdrostei became the Reich Farmers School. The Mecklenburg Farmers' College in Warin trained skilled workers for agriculture until 1945. The Warin Web School was affiliated to the university , where traditional Mecklenburg costumes, textiles and cloths were woven. The park at the university building, known as the Altes Amtshöft , was declared a natural monument in 1933.
During the Nazi era , Jewish citizens of the place were persecuted and murdered. The Jewish cemetery was devastated during the November pogrom in 1938, the remains cleared after 1945, and in 1961 a memorial stone was placed in memory of it.
On May 3, 1945, the Red Army occupied Warin. Shortly afterwards, preliminary talks for the Potsdam Conference took place in Schloss Hasenwinkel . The district hospital was built in 1948 on the site of the farmer's college. From 1960 the collectivizations in agriculture and handicraft took place, in 1962 apartment blocks were built on Fritz-Reuter-Platz. In 1983 Warin celebrated its 750th anniversary. In May 1990 free elections for community council took place.
After reunification , new infrastructure was quickly created. A retirement and nursing home as well as a new sewage treatment plant were built in 1992, and in 1993 the industrial park at Ziegelberg was handed over. The mattress factory found a new owner. But Warin also lost important infrastructure: the district hospital was closed, a new private investor could not be found.
From 1952 to 1994 Warin belonged to the Sternberg district (until 1990 in the GDR district of Schwerin , 1990–1994 in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania ). Since 1994 the city has been in the district of Northwest Mecklenburg .

flag

The flag is striped in red, yellow and red across the longitudinal axis of the flag cloth. The red stripes each take up a quarter, the yellow stripe takes up half the length of the flag cloth. In the middle of the yellow stripe is the city coat of arms, which takes up two thirds of the height of the flag. The relation of the height of the flag cloth to the length is like 3: 5.
