The oldest parts of the church date from the second half of the 15th century. The choir, as remnants of old foundations show, originally had a round shape. The present-day straight choir termination with three segmental arch windows was established at the end of the 16th century. The painting of the pews, pulpit, altar screen and gallery balustrade was overpainted during the renovation in 1883, and restored after more than 100 years. The nave consists of a half-timbered structure, which is enclosed by a fully brick-built structure. The originally higher church tower, at that time a wooden tower clad with planks on the stone substructure, was blown down by a storm on January 17, 1817. The present-day half-timbered upper part was erected in the years 1827/28. The church has a flat beamed ceiling inside. The altar balustrade and altar painting, actually an epitaph with the depiction of the Apostle Andrew, date from the beginning of the 17th century. The pulpit is dated 1605 and was donated due to a vow. The altar of Mary, which was in the church until 1883, is located in ruins in the St. Petrikirche in Wolgast.

Originally, the mill had a millstone for rye and a groats stamp, as documented in a local chronicle. Today, the mill with its millstone is fully functional. In 2016, a bolting box, which serves to separate flour and bran, was installed.[1] The internal house tree consists of a single 200-year-old oak. The wings of the mill are made of larch wood, with the brake of the spur wheel made of soft poplar wood. The crossbeams are also made of oak, while most other parts are made of pine. The mill housing with its timber-frame construction is classically held together by wooden pegs.[3] Source https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bockwindm%C3%BChle_Pudagla

The Bockwindmühle at Pudagla was already marked on a Swedish land survey map in 1693. In October 1779, the mill with all its equipment and land was bought by master miller Jacob Schmidt for 1000 thalers from his stepfather. The purchase was confirmed in 1789 by the highest confirmation of the Pomeranian War and Domain Chamber. Until 1810, all farmers of the Pudagla domain had to grind their grain at the mill. The last grinding took place in 1937. Since then, the mill had been unused. The mill remained in the possession of the Schmidt family until 1996. Finally, the mill was handed over to the municipality of Pudagla, as the condition of the mill continued to deteriorate. In April 1997, the mill was completely dismantled and the usable parts were numbered. These were then transported and restored. Finally, the mill was rebuilt. In 2019, the mill was renovated again, during which the cross-shaft damaged by core rot was also replaced.[1][2][3] Source https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bockwindm%C3%BChle_Pudagla

Great bike path, amazing experience, worth riding it 👍

This house stands out and cannot be overlooked with its architecture.

The wind pumping station was used to drain the Thurbruch River from 1926 to 1968. Afterward, the drainage was replaced by electric pumps, and the structure was listed as a historical monument. In 1990, the pumping station was restored and remains fully functional today. A beautiful, quiet spot with a covered seating area where you can enjoy nature.
