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).

On November 7, 1810, Fritz Reuter (1810–1874), one of the most important Low German writers, was born as the son of Mayor Georg Johann Jakob Reuter in the former town hall on the market square. The building served as the town hall until 1960 and has housed the Fritz Reuter Literature Museum ever since. In front of the entrance stands the Reuter monument, created by Wilhelm Wandschneider in 1911 (bronze casting on a granite base with reliefs of characters from Reuter's works). Since 1949, the city has held the honorary title of "Reuterstadt".

Stavenhagen was founded around the middle of the 13th century on the edge of the knight's castle Stove (first documented mention in 1230 as Stovenhage). The town received town rights between 1230 and 1264 (confirmation in 1282). The suffix "-hagen" indicates a clearing settlement. The market formed the center of the planned town from the very beginning. During the Thirty Years' War, the town was largely destroyed in 1648. Further severe damage was caused by major fires in 1727 and 1746. Afterwards, the current castle (around 1740) was built on older castle walls. The town hall at the market was built from 1783–1788 (or 1783–85); the town church was built from 1774–1790 as a neoclassical new building.

The manor house likely replaced a small castle that was destroyed during the Thirty Years' War. After 1648, the estate was rebuilt and consolidated by the von Krackewitz family. From 1702 to 1791, it belonged to the von Krackewitz family, who received the charter for the estate. From 1791 until its expropriation in 1945, it was owned by the von Oertzen family, who managed the estate and carried out its renovation until 1882.

The church's origins date back to the 13th century: around 1250, a simple peasant church was built here as its predecessor. The current single-nave fieldstone church was erected in the 15th century, with alterations during the Renaissance. The rectangular building measures approximately 16 x 10 meters. The granite tower was built between 1839 and 1841, replacing an older wooden tower, as was the southern entrance porch with its stepped gable. Next to the church stands a neo-Gothic burial chapel of the von Voss family, dating from 1843, which now serves as a winter church.

The manor house was built around 1730, with additions around 1850/60 (e.g., the central projecting bay). For centuries, it was closely associated with the noble von Voss family, an old Mecklenburg aristocratic family. After expropriation in 1945, the house was looted. In 1953, under political pressure, the family mausoleum was reconstructed, and parts such as a gatehouse and a pavilion were demolished.
