The predecessor building was a half-timbered structure. It was severely damaged several times during the Thirty Years' War and, despite repairs (e.g., in 1661, 1669, 1682, 1713), became unusable. After long financial difficulties, the half-timbered church was demolished in 1774. The foundation stone was laid on July 16, 1774; the consecration took place in 1782 under Pastor Knöchel. The tower was not completed until 1790 (there were disagreements about its dimensions between the congregation and the sovereign).

The church door was closed. But the cemetery around it is a wonder. The tools hang at the entrance on a board. You can see the work in them. Unfortunately, I didn't meet the person, but I respectfully accepted the invitation to visit.

The present-day village church is a simple rectangular timber-framed building with brick infill, erected in 1781. It stands on a base of mixed fieldstone masonry with a foundation of dry-laid fieldstones, on a slight rise in the middle of a cemetery. The roof is covered with beaver-tail tiles (monastery roofing).

The estate's history dates back to the 14th century, when individual farms in the village belonged to various noble families (including Muggesfeld, von Maltzan, von Voß, von Woosten, and von Parsow). Parts of the manor house may date from the mid-18th century. The current building was constructed in 1912 as a new building, replacing an older, dilapidated manor house. It was commissioned by Ulrich Heinrich Carl Fritz Bahlcke (sometimes also referred to as Schwanitz) – a representative, two-story building with sophisticated architecture, including a square and a round tower, as well as Neo-Baroque elements.
