Wriezen

The municipality extends across 94 square kilometers of Brandenburg terrain, containing residential neighborhoods, commercial districts, and natural spaces at 10 meters elevation.

First documented in 1252, Wriezen developed from a medieval settlement into a significant town under the Bohemian Crown between 1373 and 1411.

St. Mary's Church stands as the central religious monument in Wriezen, where residents maintain traditional festivals and community gatherings throughout the year.

The town provides essential services through its administrative offices at the central town hall, with direct train connections to neighboring Brandenburg cities.

Medieval Slavic origins influenced the town's name, derived from words meaning 'on the river,' reflecting its geographical position in the region.
