You can have delicious coffee & cake here, whether outside or inside; it's nice but not cheap either.

This place is wonderful for a break during hiking or cycling. There is a lot of knick-knacks to browse and marvel at. The cake is super delicious!

The town hall is the central representative building in the historic town center of the island town and was built between 1818 and 1821. It is a two-story half-timbered building in the neoclassical style with a striking mansard roof and a central balcony. The gray paint of the timber framing makes the building appear as if it were a solid structure. Together with the neighboring former district court from 1881, it forms the administrative center of the town. Both buildings are connected by a modern glass corridor. On the attic of the town hall, there are still preserved prison cells that were used until the 1950s. The building reflects the history of the town and is one of the architectural features of the region. Thus, the town hall is not only an administrative building but also a testament to Malchow's eventful history and an architectural highlight for visitors to the Mecklenburg Lake District.

Dobbertin is a very pretty brick half-timbered village, dominated by its large monastery on the shore of the lake. This monastery, once enormously wealthy (25,000 hectares of property! That means all the surrounding villages, forests, fields, ...! One of the largest and richest businesses in Mecklenburg until it was dissolved in 1918), is now a home and job opportunity for disabled people. Perhaps a little remote, but quiet and a world of its own.

A small town worth seeing that is very idyllic due to its location on the Elde. It has a beautifully restored historic old town, a castle museum, the historic lift bridge, a port worth seeing and much more to offer. It is definitely worth taking a long stroll through the town.

From the bridge you can watch the boats going through the lock (height difference 1.33 meters). The boats register with the lock keeper by telephone.
