Storkow is a typical street village, surrounded by farmland and forests. A large part of the existing building stock dates from the previous century. The settlement pattern shapes the village’s appearance, while the fields and forest provide its rural setting; the information about the building stock adds a time dimension to this picture. When making your choice, it helps to keep these aspects distinct: you can focus on the village character, the surroundings, or a specific leisure activity. The Steindamm riding stable is one such distinct point of interest, taking you from the general profile of the village to a specific activity.
