history

Drefahl's first mention as Dreual comes from 1438. The place name comes from the Old Slavic word drŭva for wood or forest . The place name should therefore mean forest village. The village church dates from the Gothic period .

Meierstorf , with its total area of ​​614.4 ha at that time, was an estate village that belonged to the Grabow office. The half-timbered church was built around 1700. The manor house is a single-storey, 11-axis brick building from the 19th century with a two-storey gable .

Pampin was first mentioned in a document in 1410.

Pampin and Platschow were districts of Berge until 1992 . They were incorporated from the Perleberg district, which has belonged to Brandenburg since 1990, into the Parchim district.

Ziegendorf is a German foundation and dates from the time of the eastern colonization . The half-timbered church dates from 1703. On July 1, 1950, the previously independent communities of Meierstorf and Stresendorf were incorporated.
