Murchin: Manor House, Concerts and Fruit Brandy

Church, Distillery and Manor House

Visits to Pinnow village church are only possible by prior arrangement. Register before your visit and confirm the arrangement again. This lets you plan your visit to the church deliberately rather than deciding to go spontaneously.

Freudenfeuer distillery in Libnow produces small batches of fruit brandies—a distinctive local feature alongside the architectural history. After extensive restoration, Libnow Manor House was returned to its 1860 condition and once again shines in its former glory. The historical year refers to the condition to which the house was restored.

Music is also part of Libnow: the “Manor House Concerts” by renowned musicians from Germany and abroad take place in the manor house’s concert hall. The concert series adds a musical dimension alongside the history of the house. If you want to plan your trip around a concert, check the individual dates separately.

In the wider destination of Vorpommern-Greifswald

For a view beyond Murchin, the wider destination of Vorpommern-Greifswald offers more nature and culture themes. The district of Vorpommern-Greifswald’s three nature parks cover almost 40 percent of its area. The Ueckermünde Heath is ideal for hiking, cycling and horse riding. Cycling routes also offer a range of options: the Baltic Sea Cycle Route, part of the EuroVelo EV10 route, passes through the district. The Stettiner Haff Circular Route and the Route of North German Romanticism are regional cycling routes for exploring the district. Before a bike ride, it is worth checking the trail conditions and signposting.

Visitors interested in cultural history will find a range of themes in the district. In Greifswald, the Pomeranian State Museum displays the Croy Tapestry of 1554, a unique cultural and historical artefact from the Reformation era. In Anklam, the Otto Lilienthal Museum is dedicated to aviation pioneer, mechanical engineer and humanist Otto Lilienthal in his home town; it is a technical museum devoted to a person. The Juliett U-461 is moored in Peenemünde harbour as a museum and can be explored on a tour; check the current access rules before your visit, as they may change. The range of themes thus extends from an artefact of the Reformation era, through the story of an aviation pioneer, to exploring a museum in the harbour.

Food and outdoor experiences can also add to your regional explorations. A culinary tour of Greifswald’s historic old town takes you to four Greifswald restaurants offering sweet and savoury treats. Ueckermünde Zoo is home to more than 1,120 native and exotic animals representing 95 species; keeper talks and feedings take place daily. Animal numbers and feeding activities may change, so check the latest information before visiting. On a boat trip in Ukranenland Torgelow, you can travel in the first Slavic boat reconstructed in Germany. Participants have to row themselves—an especially active way to explore.

Choose a Holiday Apartment Based on Your Travel Plans

When looking for a holiday apartment in Murchin, it helps to decide on your main interest first: local attractions bring together architectural history, music and fruit brandy, while exploring Vorpommern-Greifswald opens up more nature, cycling and museum themes. Planning a trip around a concert calls for different scheduling than a church visit that must be arranged in advance. Decide which experiences you want to shape your stay, and factor the relevant dates and conditions into your plans.
