Prenzlau: Brick Gothic Lakeside Town in der Uckermark
Prenzlau is the Kreisstadt of the Uckermark in Brandenburg, with about 20,900 inhabitants. The Marienkirche, a brick Gothic hall church with twin towers visible from far across the flat Uckermark landscape, is one of the finest medieval brick churches in northern Germany. The town sits on the southern shore of the Unteruckersee, a large glacial lake. Sections of the medieval town wall with towers survive.
Schwedt an der Oder is roughly 30 kilometres east. Templin lies to the southwest. The Uckermark is one of Germany's most sparsely populated districts, characterised by rolling glacial moraine, lakes, and large-scale farming. The Dominikanerkloster, a former Dominican monastery, houses the cultural history museum.
