Teterow combines a well-preserved medieval town center with the historic Burgwallinsel in Lake Teterow and the Bergring grass racing track. This gives you a choice of different focal points for your stay: urban history, lakeside scenery and motorsports. A helpful first question when planning is which of these you would like to combine.
Urban history and culture
The pike fountain in Teterow was inaugurated in 1914 and takes its theme from the legend of the pike. The Evangelical Lutheran town church has a different history: construction began in 1215, but because it features two different architectural styles, it was not inaugurated until more than 200 years later. Both sites offer their own points of connection if you would like to discover Teterow through its historic buildings.
The Bergring Museum Teterow provides exhibition information on the history of the Bergring, regional railway history and the town’s school history. Groups can register with the Teterow Town Museum throughout the year for museum tours, events and projects. These activities can also be arranged individually. This makes it possible to plan a museum visit as a tailored group activity.
Lake, nature and leisure
Lake Teterow lies northeast of the town, in the surrounding area of Teterow and within the Mecklenburg Switzerland and Lake Kummerow Nature Park. Its western shore is part of the Binsenbrink Nature Reserve. Visitors can reach Burgwallinsel in the lake by ferry or by the “Regulus” launch. Check the latest departure information before your visit to help plan your trip to the island.
NaturBad Teterow on Lake Teterow has a sandy beach, a sunbathing lawn and a beach volleyball court. As seasonal operating details may change, check the latest information before visiting. Alongside a trip to the island, this gives you specific leisure activities to choose from at the lake.
Forest trails and the Bergring
The forest discovery trail in the Teterow Heidberge Forest Discovery Area is divided into two sections: the main trail, “Forest of Talents,” is 1.6 kilometers long and has nine stations; the Philosophers’ Trail is just under 1 kilometer long and has five additional stations. The lengths and number of stations provide a concrete comparison if you would like to choose a route that suits your preferences.
The Bergring circuit in Teterow is 1,877 meters long and has gradients of up to 16 percent. Together with the themes explored at the Bergring Museum, this lets you consider the Bergring both in terms of the circuit and its history.
If you are looking for a hotel in Teterow, it helps to first decide on the focus of your stay: urban history, lakeside scenery or the Bergring. You can then weigh the topics presented according to your interests without having to follow a set order for your visits.
