Chorin : Michelin's recommendations

The splendid ruins of Chorin abbey stand in a setting of greenery on the banks of the Amtsee. As early as 1825, the architect Karl-Friedrich Schinkel drew the attention of the King of Prussia to the historical interest of the ruins and persuaded him to take steps to save the site.
