The half-timbered church in Blankenförde-Kakeldütt...

In 1702 a new half-timbered church was built after the church on the outskirts of the village had burned down completely. On the southern longitudinal wall of the church there is an ornamented portal carved from oak wood. The altar, made in the Flemish Baroque style, is decorated in white and gold, as is the pulpit. Also worth seeing is the oil painting to the right of the altar, which was formerly the centerpiece of a 16th century altar. In the painted colorful window panes of the church, as well as on the pewter candlesticks, the pewter baptismal font and the communion cup, the names of the donors of the time are immortalized.Blankenförde-Kakeldütt Traces of Middle Stone Age dwellings indicate a very early settlement in the area around Blankenförde. Blankenförde itself was first mentioned as "Blankenvort" in 1256. According to the name it was an early German settlement. The interpretation of "Blankenvort" as "place at white / blank furth" is obvious. The name of the village Kakeldütt, which was first mentioned in a document in 1342, also refers to the proximity to the water. However, the root of the word in this case lies in the Old Slavic "hoholu", which means "vortex" or "whirlpool" and points to a Slavic settlement. Both places have always been farming villages. Blankenförde came into the possession of the Dargun Monastery in 1256 and was purchased by the Johannite Commandery of Mirow in 1359. After the secularization of the commandery it belonged to the Amt Mirow. Kakeldütt was donated to the Knights of St. John of Mirow in 1342 by Princes Nicolaus III and Bernhard von Werle.
