Tips from the Community
This is not a medieval town hall, but a relatively modern administrative building. After reunification (1990s) it was redesigned, renovated and extended to make it a “modern, friendly administrative building”. In front of the town hall there are clinker sculptures of nuns – an artistic reminder of the former Cistercian nuns’ abbey from which the town originated.

The St. Nicholas' Church in Wismar is not only a landmark of Brick Gothic architecture but also an impressive testament to Hanseatic history. As the church of sailors and fishermen (hence the dedication to St. Nicholas), it is deeply rooted in the city's maritime tradition. With a vault height of 37 meters, St. Nicholas' boasts the fourth-highest church nave in Germany (after Ulm Minster, Cologne Cathedral, and St. Mary's Church, Lübeck).

The nunnery that moved into Sonnenkamp came from the branch in Parkow. The Marienkloster in Bergen on Rügen had also been intended as the mother house, but the Benedictine convent in Arendsee in the Altmark was a more likely candidate, since Adelheid, the second wife of Prince Borwin I, was a princess from the Mark Brandenburg who, through good relations with the Arendsee monastery, brought the first Benedictine nuns to Mecklenburg. After 1245, the convent adopted the Cistercian rule, which was probably due to the influence of the powerful Cistercian abbey of Doberan. In a letter of protection from Pope Clement IV dated May 26, 1267,[6] a Cistercian monastery was first mentioned as Cysterciensis ordinis, and the monastery was governed by a prioress and followed the rules of Saint Benedict according to the customs of the Cistercian brothers….
