Warrenzin: Manor House and Archaeological Traces
Accommodation in Warrenzin
The village of Warrenzin lies directly on federal highway 110. This provides a clear landmark for orientation; the Peene forms the southern boundary of the municipality of Warrenzin. Historical and landscape features are spread across various places within the municipality. The manor house stands in Warrenzin, while the ramparts, burial mounds, Upost megalithic tomb and Beestland chapel are associated with their own locations. Visitors considering Warrenzin as a travel destination can thus distinguish between the village itself and other destinations within the municipality.
Manor house and bell: historical traces
Warrenzin Manor House has been restored and is inhabited. Johann Carl Blank took over the lease in 1842; he probably had the manor house built in its present form. Beestland chapel offers another historical trace: a bronze bell from Schorrentin church hangs in its freestanding bell tower. It was cast by F. Schuenemann in Demmin in 1839. The attribution of the manor house’s present appearance remains uncertain; the bell’s origin, caster and casting year are specified.
Ramparts and Bronze Age graves
Hoher Wall is a Slavic rampart above the Peene and an impressive monument in the forests south of Wolkow. WeiĂźer Wall is also a Slavic rampart. From the Wolkow area, signposts lead around it to its old gate, where there is an information board. Routes and signage may change; check both before your visit. Five Bronze Age burial mounds also lie in the forests south of Wolkow. The archaeological sites mentioned thus span a period from the Bronze Age to the Slavic ramparts.
The Upost megalithic tomb
The Upost megalithic tomb was reconstructed following excavations in 1968. It contained numerous grave goods of various pottery types, as well as several flint axes and flint chisels. To get there, turn onto a forest track just before the entrance to Warrenzin, leave your car there and follow the main forest track for about 20 minutes. Road conditions and signage may change; check them before setting out.
