Description
Torgelow is a municipality on the Uecker River in the Vorpommern-Greifswald district and is characterized by flat landscape that gently stretches through the region. The town core appears modest with typical buildings of a rural German settlement.
History
The area was under Swedish rule between the 17th and 18th centuries before later coming under Prussian control. Only in the mid-20th century did the settlement receive city status.
Culture
The name derives from the Uecker River that flows through the area, and the town shows itself as a typical small northern German city with residential buildings and local shops. Community life here follows the rhythm of a rural region in northeastern Germany.
