Gründung und Bau

Gramzow is the oldest documented place in the Uckermark. The Premonstratensian monastery was founded in 1178 by Duke Bogislaw of Pomerania. A fieldstone church was built with the monastery in 1235. From 1355 to 1365, it was converted into a three-aisled brick church with a transept and ambulatory choir. In 1536, the monastery was dissolved. In 1714, the monastery church burned down. To this day, only a part of the west wall remains. The monastery ruin is a landmark of Gramzow.
