Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: W bbelin is a municipality in the administrative district of Ludwigslust in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The municipality has a seat in the Office of Ludwigslust from where it is administered. W bbelin consists of three areas: Dreenkr gen, the "Funkamtsiedlung," a housing development and buildings supporting a former radio broadcasting station, and the main town, W bbelin. W bbelin was first mentioned in 1333 as "Wopelyn." In 1813, Theodor K rner, "Dichter der Freiheitskriege," the "poet of the wars of liberation," who died in Gadebusch on 1813-08-26, was buried in W bbelin.

In the middle of the cemetery, the former "nationalsozialistischen Weihest tte" serves today as a remembrance and memorial place for W bbelin and as the headquarters of a museum.
