Holstein Moraine Landscape

Highlight • Natural

Quite steep chains of hills separate the individual streams and lakes from each other. The ascent to the 61 m high Mühlenberg is by no means easy. The paths here usually take the heights very directly.

Right at the junction of Lake Kirchsee and Lake Lanker, through which the Schwentine River flows on its way from the Bungsberg to its mouth in the Kiel Fjord, there is a bridge and a small bay in front of it with sun loungers and benches for relaxing. From there, you have a view over Lake Kirchsee all the way to the town church.

The bridge leads to the other shore, where you can continue walking along Lake Kirchsee to the town church.

There are also hiking and cycling trails that continue to the Lanker See swimming pool or along the Schuster Acht.

It is also possible to climb the Wehrberg, which houses a memorial to those killed in World War I.

Preetz Town Church

Highlight • Religious Site

The town church was originally built as a fortified church on a hill overlooking the Kirchsee (Church Lake) between 1200 and 1210. At that time, the so-called "Limes Saxoniae" (Saxon Limes) was marked by the Schwentine River and the Kirchsee: the area of today's Plön district was among the last regions in Europe that were not yet fully Christianized around 1200. The town church, serving as both a missionary and fortified church, stood on the border with the predominantly pagan population. The late Romanesque fieldstone chancel (circa 1200) also dates from this period. The church's current appearance is characterized by the Baroque style.

Points of interest include: a Romanesque baptismal font from the 13th century, Renaissance chandeliers from the 16th century, bronze crowns from the 17th century, and a suspended baptismal angel from the 18th century.

Shoemaker with Dog statue, Preetz

Highlight • Monument

The work of a shoemaker isn't so easy when your dog tries to steal your shoes and even the mice have made themselves at home in your workshop. With a cheerful image and a touch of humor, the detailed sculpture recalls the history of shoemakers in Preetz. Around 1850, the town boasted 150 independent master shoemakers, 360 journeyman shoemakers, and 160 shoemaking apprentices. In addition, there was a large number of clog makers.

View of the church at Kirchsee

Highlight • Viewpoint

From here you have a beautiful view over the Kirchsee, in which the opposite bank is often reflected. After heavy rain, this lake hiking trail is sometimes flooded.

View of the lake

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

At this point you have a great view of Lake Wielen. However, there are many hungry mosquitoes. It is best to wear long clothes and use mosquito repellent first. But the view and the way along the lake is worthwhile!

The 1/2 km long path over marshy meadows leads close to nature between a double row of birch trees.
There is also a great bathing spot in the Schwentine with a jetty, bench and entry ladder.

In the footsteps of the sea horses. This title applies because we continue to follow the Schwentine, which spreads out around Plön to several lakes and then we lock our way through many gates in the middle of various paddocks of the large Glaesserppel riding stables. That something like this …
