A beautiful beech forest stretches along to the Ploggensee. The hiking trail is very easy to walk.

The 13th-century St. Nicholas Church in Grevesmühlen is originally a brick church in the transitional style from Romanesque to Gothic. Today, it belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran parish of Grevesmühlen in the Wismar provostship in the Mecklenburg church district of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany.

A call barrier secures a level crossing that is rarely used by road users, is usually located in a remote area and often cannot be seen by the responsible barrier attendant. The barriers are always closed and are only opened when necessary - if this can be done safely (see § 11 (17) EBO). If a road user wants to pass through such a level crossing, he reports to the barrier attendant on duty via an intercom. The barrier attendant then opens the barrier - after possibly consulting the dispatchers responsible for the track section to the left or right of the crossing - if the train traffic allows it or announces the opening via the intercom. Since he cannot usually see the level crossing, the user is asked to report the evacuation to the attendant. In exceptional cases, the attendant may listen to the noises at the level crossing via the intercom and then close the barriers again. Before closing the barriers, he announces the closing via the intercom. Rarely, one or more cameras are installed to ensure greater security.

The St. Georg Foundation is a church foundation and diaconal institution in a listed building. The building is a one-story neo-Gothic building made of red and yellow brick. The turquoise entrance door and window frames are striking. A nice photo opportunity!

The tower can be climbed. The key is in the museum next door, except on Sundays and Mondays.
