Tips from the Community
Kirchweih made of fieldstones

The parish church in Boitzenburg was built in the second half of the 13th century. It was first mentioned on July 25, 1271, in a deed of gift from the Margraves of Brandenburg to the Cistercian monastery of Boitzenburg. The church is located on a hill near the highest point of Boitzenburg. The building is an elongated rectangular fieldstone hall with a four-story west tower from 1650 and a polygonal chancel closure made of brick, which was added in the 18th century. In the 19th century, the church building was extended to the north and south by transept-like, Romanesque-style additions.

A great trail through the forest, mostly paved with occasional cobblestones. Increased traffic among hikers and cyclists.

Make no mistake. The view of the lake really isn't that great, as it's much too far from the spot with the bench. But the scenery is definitely magnificent. Once you've really got going on the very hilly bike path, it's easy to miss the opportunity to look out and can't or don't want to slow down. You're also quite busy with the constant cobblestone sections!

While there are hardly any views of the lakes, you could easily make a detour, for example, to the Luzin ferry landing or to the Devil's Stone (on the other side). What's annoying about the path itself are several cobblestone breaks. These chicanes are pretty stupid, probably just a misunderstanding of monument preservation.

The large meadow with a playground and a few benches is certainly the most pleasant place to spend time at the Oberpfuhl and in the Lychen town area. Boats can dock, and you could even go on a boat tour yourself, but unfortunately, there's no suitable swimming spot. No water treading either. - Still. It's absolutely idyllic here, not least because of the beautiful tall trees and the peninsula-like shape of the area.
