Museumstour, cycling tour

Description:
The starting point of MuseumsTour is the carpark at the corner of Uckerpromenade and Neustadt. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit the fully refurbished Dominican monastery and the associated museum in Prenzlau. After you visit to this must-see attraction, you cycle along paths next to the road and quiet country lanes to Grünow. You can also take a detour to Drense. The village has been named the top history village of the Uckermark. You now ride past Dreesch and on to Neu Kleinow with its grindstone museum and next to Gramzow with its railway museum. The ice cream parlour in Gramzow is ideal for a little break and a scoop of home-made ice cream or a sundae. Our next stop is Blankenburg with its Slavonic fortress, before we go on along the shore of Unteruckersee, past Seehausen and Seelübbe and back to the starting point in Prenzlau.
