Teterow

Teterow is a town in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania serving as an administrative center for the Rostock District. The town spreads across flat land and contains a historic church, schools, shops, and regular transport links connecting it to nearby cities.

The town began as a settlement in 1201 and grew from a medieval trading post into an important administrative center. The preserved city gates and the layout of older streets tell the story of this gradual transformation.

The Church of St. Peter and Paul dominates the town center with its blend of late Romanesque and Gothic forms that reflect medieval craftsmanship. It remains a focal point where locals and visitors notice the layers of architectural detail from centuries of building and rebuilding.

Visitors will find shops, services, schools, and administrative offices throughout the town for their daily needs. Regular bus connections make it easy to reach other towns in the region and explore the surrounding area.

The Bergring is a racing track that draws motorsport enthusiasts and shows the region's sporting heritage in an unexpected way. Also worth a visit is the Clock Factory Theater, operating since 2002 in a converted factory building and hosting performances in a truly unconventional setting.
