Postlow: Anger village south of the Peene

Postlow is located near Anklam, south of the Peene and on federal highways 199 and 110. The municipality combines a preserved historic townscape with destinations in the surrounding area and landscape features in the nearby vicinity. As a result, a visit offers different geographical and thematic points of reference alongside one another.

Village Structure and History

Postlow is an Anger village that preserves the structure and extent of a 19th-century village. Postlow was first documented in 1305 under the name “Pustelowe.” The Slavic place name is interpreted as meaning “chair” or “seat.” The village structure thus preserves a built heritage, while the traditional name provides the municipality with its own linguistic-historical perspective.

History is evident here not only in a year, but also in the form of the place. The Anger village and the history of its name are distinctive features of Postlow and complement the destinations recorded in the surrounding area.

Culture

In the surrounding area of Postlow, the Trabbi-Scheune is considered a museum. Also in the surrounding area of Postlow, Quilow Water Castle is considered a castle. The Quilow village church is considered a church there, as is the Maria Magdalena Church in Schlatkow. Each of the four destinations stands on its own in the surrounding area of Postlow; this does not imply a shared location or affiliation.

The cultural surroundings therefore encompass different types of sites: a museum, a castle and two churches. In terms of thematic selection, this means moving between local history, architectural culture and individual excursion destinations, without combining the four places into a single location.
