The village of Kirch-Jesar is more than 700 years old; the name Jesar is likely derived from Slavic and means "lake." As early as the 14th century, a chapel stood in Kirch-Jesar, which presumably fell into disrepair after the Thirty Years' War. In 1717, the Duke of Mecklenburg's court marshal, Johann Christoph von Halberstadt, had the new church built in a simple style. The wood-clad tower with its slate roof was not added until 1847, as was the interior. A few years later, a bell from a workshop in Wismar was added. In 1881, the church received an organ by master organ builder Johann Heinrich Runge. The gallery had to be specially lowered to accommodate the instrument. Around 1913, the painter Willi Schomann, originally from Parchim, created the mural "The Last Judgment" on the choir wall. The church is Protestant and belongs to the Kirch-Jesar parish.

The church was built in 1717 as a simple rectangular building with a half-timbered frame made of oak and clinker brick panels on behalf of the Mecklenburg court marshal Johann Christoph von Halberstadt. The tower in front was built in 1847, the pulpit altar and the wall stand in the figure Wilder Mann also date from this time. A painting on the east wall from 1913 shows the Last Judgment, the Runge organ was built in 1881. The writer and freedom fighter Theodor Körner probably wrote his last letter from Kirch Jesar. https://www.stiftung-kiba.de/kirchen/dorfkirche-kirch-jesar

The striking half-timbered church is a building from the 18th century. The interior, tower, organ and bell date from the second half of the 19th century. The village of Kirch-Jesar is more than 700 years old, the part of the name Jesar is probably derived from the Slavic and means "lake". As early as the 14th century there was a chapel in Kirch-Jesar, which probably fell into disrepair after the Thirty Years' War. In 1717, the ducal-Mecklenburg court marshal Johann Christoph von Halberstadt had the new church built in a simple style. The wood-clad tower with its slate roof was not built until 1847, as was the interior. A few years later, a bell from a workshop in Wismar was added. In 1881 the church received an organ from master organ builder Johann Heinrich Runge. The gallery had to be specially lowered so that the instrument could fit in. Around 1913, the painter Willi Schomann, who came from Parchim, created the mural "The Last Judgment" on the choir wall. The young painter was known for his paintings in churches, for example in the Marienkirche in Parchim the outer facade was renewed, the tower roof and the organ could also be repaired.Further renovation measures on the building are necessary and are supported by donations and a support association. https://www.auf-nach-mv.de/travel destinations/a-dorfkirche-kirch-jesar

This land route takes you directly from Warlitz, on the Berlin Hamburg railway line, to Hagenow Heide. ! The path consists of differently fastened and unpaved sections. 1st section concrete track easily passable, 2nd section forest path made of sand and gravel, many lanes and holes, 3rd section asphalt, very easy to drive. So, pure asphalt cyclists should avoid this route, no problem for experienced trekking and off-road cyclists. A lot of nature and variety.

Hagenow is traversed from east to west by the Schmaar, which is dammed in the city center to form a narrow mill pond. The mill building still exists, but only a sign reminds you of its former use. A beautiful hiking trail leads along the east bank. The Schmaar (also called Kleine Sude in a section) is a right tributary of the Sude in the district of Ludwigslust-Parchim in southwest Mecklenburg. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmaar
