Pasewalk Attractions

The Hospital of St Spiritus in Ringstrasse in Pasewalk is made up of three buildings, the oldest of which is a two-story brick-built wing (c. 1500) with decorative blind arches on the gable. The Hospital is now an old people's home.

At Grosse Kirchstrasse 17 is the Elendshaus, a small brick building with a plaster cladding, formerly a poorhouse.

At the corner of Baustrasse and Kleine Kirchenstrasse can be seen the Jagdschlösschen, a small two-story Renaissance hunting lodge.

The parish church of St Mary in Pasewalk was built in the 14th C. on granite foundations of the 13th C; it has a fine altar with a copy of Raphael's "Bearing of the Cross."

In front of the church stands the limestone Mordkreuz ("Murder Cross"; 1367).

St Nicholas's Church (13th-14th C) in Pasewalk was rebuilt in the Late Gothic period. The tower, badly damaged in 1945, was restored after the war.

Pasewalk has preserved some remains of its old town walls and a number of towers and gates - the Prenzlauer Tor (c. 1450) to the south, the Mühlentor (c. 1450) to the northwest and two towers, the "Kiek in de Mark" (1445) and the Pulverturm (Powder Tower; 15th c.).
