Amtsgericht, Local court and architectural monument in Pasewalk, Germany.
The Amtsgericht occupies a spacious building at Grünstraße 61, situated on the grounds of a former Dominican monastery in Pasewalk. The structure was completed in 1905, with an expansion added later to meet growing court operations.
The court was established on 1 October 1879 as one of fourteen local courts under the Regional Court of Stettin's jurisdiction. Over time, it underwent several reorganizations to adapt to changing administrative needs.
The building displays typical features of early twentieth-century German court architecture, with solid stone walls and classical details at the entrance. It shapes Pasewalk's streetscape as an important public structure that conveys order and continuity.
The court is generally accessible to visitors from Tuesday through Friday, with Tuesdays offering extended availability. Those with appointments or inquiries should call ahead or check specific office hours beforehand.
The building stands on a historically significant site where a Dominican monastery once defined Pasewalk for centuries. This layer of history now lies hidden beneath the court structure, showing how the city repurposed its spaces over time.
