Lake Ruppin covers an area of 8.25 km² and is 14 km long, making it the longest lake in Brandenburg. Its maximum depth is approximately 24 m. A roughly 25 km long circular path leads around the lake, inviting hikers and especially cyclists to explore. To the south of the lake lies Wustrau, a village of about 1,100 inhabitants, which is well worth a visit. The lake receives its water from the Rhin River via the Zermützelsee, the Tetzensee, and the Molchowsee at the Altruppin lock, and flows into the Bützsee via the Wustrauer Rhin. https://www.goruma.de/staedte/neuruppin/neuruppin-sehenswuerdigkeiten

The monumental stainless steel sculpture "Parzival am See" (Parzival by the Lake) on the shore of Lake Ruppin is far more than just a work of art; it is a powerful symbol of change and hope. Standing a proud 17 meters tall, Parzival, created by the artist Matthias Zágon Hohl-Stein, was unveiled in 1998 to mark the town's renaming as "Fontanestadt" (Fontane City). The symbolism is particularly striking: In one hand, Parzival holds a windmill, in the other an ark – symbols of progress and preservation. The sculpture represents a new Neuruppin without a garrison, a city on the move, confronting its history while simultaneously looking to the future. An inspiring place that invites reflection – and a fantastic photo opportunity right on the lakeshore. Anyone visiting Neuruppin should definitely take a look at this modern-day knight. https://tourismus-neuruppin.de/kultur-erleben-neuruppin/sehenswertes-neuruppin/119-parzival-am-see-neuruppin

The imposing building is truly impressive, and fortunately, as an "open church," it can also be easily viewed from the inside! In ancient times, it also served as a fortified church, offering shelter to the local peasant population when needed. The fieldstone masonry has a severe crack.

The church tower with its stepped gable dominates the skyline of the second-largest village in the district. The 13th-century fieldstone church, with its striking use of clinker brick, is surrounded by the churchyard. The pillars and pointed arches form an effective structure for the tower. Also worth seeing are the frescoes from the late Gothic and Renaissance periods. The two baptismal angels and the wooden sculptures of the apostles Peter and Paul are noteworthy. A 13th-century fieldstone building with remnants of medieval painting. Extensive exhibition on the history of the village and the church.
