history

Warsow village church

The church, which was rebuilt several times in the past, is a Gothic building made of granite rubble with buttresses. The church's two bells date from 1309 and 1474. The organ, built in 1833 by Jacob Friedrich Friese , has been in this church since 1874.

A low German hall house from 1787 has been preserved to this day. In 1972 Kothendorf and Krumbeck were incorporated into Warsow.
