Experience Malchow - What to see and do

A beautiful yet underrated tourist destination to add to the list when discovering Germany is Malchow.

With only 6,560 residents, this small island town is a municipality in the Mecklenburgische Seenplatte district, in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and has some unique things on offer to see and explore.

To make it ashore, you’ll have to wait for the impressive swing bridge (Drehbrücke) to open, which only happens once an hour! Around the city you’ll be able to find interesting places such as Malchow Abbey, the Mecklenburg Organ Museum, the old-fashioned Windmill, and a local history museum where you can learn about its interesting past and connection with the wars.

Malchow is surrounded by the gorgeous lakes of the Mecklenburg Lakeland as well as the woods of the Müritz National Park, making it a special town in the heart of nature.
