Geographically, Marlow lies between the Baltic Sea and the river Peene, which means it is surrounded by water. The town itself has a picturesque historic centre with many half-timbered houses and a beautiful promenade along the River Peene.

Touristically relevant are above all the two churches - St. Mary's Church from the 13th century and St. John's Church from the 15th century - as well as Marlow Castle, an impressive Baroque castle from the 18th century.

Cultural highlights include the annual jazz festival in the summer as well as various art exhibitions throughout the year. For culinary specialities, we recommend the fish market at the harbour or local specialities such as red fruit jelly with vanilla sauce or fried eel.

For outdoor activities, there are cycling tours along the river Peene or boat trips on the Baltic Sea (best in summer). In autumn you can also go mushroom picking or enjoy hiking in the forests around the town.

If it rains there is still plenty to do! For example, visit the local history museum for an exciting journey through the history of Marlow or relax with a coffee in a cosy café.

The best time to visit Marlow is definitely in summer, when the town comes to life the most and you can enjoy the picturesque surroundings in warm weather.

We hope these travel tips will help you make the most of your visit to Marlow. Our Travel Guide wishes you an enjoyable time!

Southern cycling pilgrimage route by Terry
February 20, 2021 · Community
Gefunden haben wir die Radtour in einer Erlebnistourenbroschüre, Herausgeber Vogelparkregion Recknitztal und haben die Tour im Sommer 2020 unternommen. Schon der Start ab Marlow war ein Highlight. Die Strecke hinter Marlow durch das Recknitztal ist wunderschön und Bad Sülze thront oberhalb eines "Berges". Wir hatten Glück und die Kirche war geöffnet und wir mussten uns den Schlussel nicht erst aus dem Pfarramt besorgen. Die Kirche ist sehr beeindruckend und das Kircheninnere hat uns sehr gefallen. Außerdem hat uns auch das denkmalgeschützte Kirchenensemble neben der Kirche sehr gut gefallen. Auch wenn dort keine Schule mehr ist und kein Lehrer mehr wohnt, aber die Idee die leeren Gebäude zu Ferienhäuser auszubauen und damit vor dem Verfall zu schützen ist toll. Auf einem alten Bahndamm ging es weiter nach Kölzow. Die Kirche in Kölzow ist echt der Hammer. Steht man im inneren, kommt man sich vor wie in "Die 3 Musketiere" und d’Artagnan und seine drei Freunde kommen jeden Moment hereingstiefelt. Sehr beindruckend. Wir hatten auch in der Töpferei in Fahrenhaupt Glück und die Besitzerin war im Garten und wir konnten ohne Anmeldung im Atelier stöbern und sind auch fündig geworden. Die Tour hat uns sehr viel Spaß gemacht, die Lanschaft war wunderschön und die Kirchen habenviele Eindrücke hinterlassen.

Hiking in "Little Thuringia" – Marlow by Terry
February 20, 2021 · Community
Ich habe diese schöne Wandertour mit meiner Nichte im Dezember gemacht. Obwohl wir nicht weit entfernt wohnen, kannte ich diesen Teil des Recknitztals noch nicht. Wir sind trotz GPS, das wir zwischendurch um Akku zu sparen immer wieder mal ausmachen mussten, vom Weg abgekommen. Die Ausschilderung könnte etwas besser sein. Aber für uns hat dieser Umstand die Tour erst richtig spannend gemacht. Auf dem Rückweg haben wir auf den Wiesen Rehe und einen Fuchs bei der Jagd beobachten können. Wir hatten eine wunderschöne Wanderung und wir waren uns einig, hier wandern wir jetzt öfters.
