Templin (German: [tɛmˈpliːn] ⓘ) is a small town in the Uckermark district of Brandenburg, Germany.
The town is located in the south of the rural Uckermark region and its capital Prenzlau, north of the Schorfheide-Chorin Biosphere Reserve.
Heavily devastated by Danish troops in the Thirty Years' War, Templin from 1816 on belonged to the Prussian province of Brandenburg near the border with Mecklenburg-Strelitz.
The building designed by Werner March was destroyed by Luftwaffe personnel in April 1945, just days before the Red Army reached the area.
It is a popular destination for day-trippers from Berlin to enjoy the many glacial lakes and extended forests.
