"St. Johannis Church is a listed church building in Boek, a district of the municipality of Rechlin in the Mecklenburg Lake District in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. It belongs to the parish of Rechlin in the Neustrelitz provostry, Mecklenburg church district of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany.

A church was mentioned in Boek as early as the 13th century. Heavily damaged after the Thirty Years' War, a new sacred building is said to have been erected to the west of the manor house in 1758. The parton was chamberlain Christoph von Raven.

The remains of the second wooden church were demolished after the village fire of 1837. The new church site was consecrated in 1841 and the new cemetery site in 1845. The former, leveled church square was partly used by the estate as a path and as vegetable land. With the acquisition of the estate in 1842, the very active Dobbertin monastery governor Carl Johann von Le Fort also took over the patronage of the Boek church. The design for the new church building was provided in 1844 by Schinkel student and Schwerin master builder and architect Carl Anton Hermes. The construction of the church was carried out by the building contractor Hennemann and the church patron was in charge of supervision. The Grand Duke's approval was granted with the remark that the massive construction of the church in Boek intended by you, according to the drawing submitted to us, which was then returned to us, would please us. The foundation stone of today's third church was laid on August 20, 1844. As patron, Le Fort paid almost 5,ooo marks of the submitted building bills alone and also donated various small works of art."
