Map - Bartenshagen-Parkentin

Bartenshagen-Parkentin is a municipality in the Rostock district, in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany.

The municipality comprises the villages of Bartenshagen, Parkentin, Huetten, Neuhof and Bollbruecke.

Bartenshagen-Parkentin lies between Bad Doberan and the Hanseatic city of Rostock. The municipality has two parts: Bartenshagen lies on the slightly raised area of basal moraine of Haegerort approximately 7 km from the Baltic See. Parkentin lies approximately 3 km south from the centre of Bartenshagen. The municipality is characterised by farmland, predominantly used for arable farming. South of Parkentin near Neuhof and north of Bollbruecke there are some areas of meadowland. The southwest of the municipality is dominated by the Huetter Wohld, containing many artificial fish-ponds, of which approx. 180 Hectares lie within the municipality. The highest point of the municipality (80m above mean sea level) lies in Huetter Wohld, on the boundary to Ivendorf. The terrain falls northeast from this point over Huetten (35m) to the mouth of the Waidbach at 22m. The largest tarn in the municipality, resulting from peat extraction is to be found here. The terrain then rises to Parkentin (26m) and then falls in a northerly direction. The lowest point (6m) is to be found on the northeast municipality boundary to Bargeshagen on the B105. The Rotbach also traverses the municipality at this point. At the western edge, on the boundary to Bad Doberan there is a 78 Hectare part of the Walkmueller Holz. The Stege, which is formed by the Waidbach south of Parkentin, flows in a northerly direction through the 3.3 km-long linear village of Bartenhagen.

In the south of the municipality lies the former landfill site belonging to the city of Rostock, which was closed in 2000 and presents a noticeable hill covering around 26 Hectares.
