PRENZLAU, or PRENZLOW , a town of Germany, in the Prussian province of Brandenburg. It lies on the lower Ucker See, 30 M. .W. by S. of Stettin by rail. Pop. (1905), 20,929. The
Gothic
 
church
  of St Mary (Evangelical), dating from 1340, is one of the finest churches in the
district
 , and the remains of the town gates, walls and towers are also interesting. The
industries
  include wool-spinning, iron-
founding
 , brewing and
sugar
 -refining. Tobacco is grown in the neighbourhood, and cigars are manufactured in the town.
Prenzlau
  is first mentioned in a document of the close of the 12th century, and received its municipal charter in 1235. As the
capital
  of the old Uckermark it was a frequent object of dispute between
Pomerania
  and Brandenburg until incorporated with the latter about 1480. At
Prenzlau
  Prince Hohenlohe, with his corps of 12,000 men, surrendered to Murat on the
retreat
  after the battle of Jena in October 1806.
See I. Ziegler, Prenzlau, die ehemalige Hauptstadt der Uckermark
(Prenzlau, 1886).
