Bandelin Manor

The Bandelin Manor House is a Neo-Baroque plastered building with eleven axes. It was built as a two-story structure over a high basement. The hip roof is adorned with dormer windows. On the courtyard side, there is a flat three-axis central risalit with an open staircase, in whose gable area there is a cartouche with the coat of arms of the von Behr family. The risalit on the garden side, articulated with colossal pilasters, protrudes in a semi-circular shape. It has a broadly sweeping open staircase and a copper-clad dome roof.

Behind the risalit is the oval garden hall. The staircase and various stucco ceilings have been preserved. In the former hunting room, there are consoles designed as bears, as well as heraldic panes.

The landscape park extends south of the manor house and from there further east. It is characterized by the elongated ponds with an island. It was laid out in the second half of the 18th century. Until 1920, a megalithic tomb was located there, which the local teacher Knuth excavated; today, only small stones remain there, the large ones were certainly broken up and reused. In its eastern part is the cemetery with the mausoleum for the von Behr family - now used as a cemetery chapel because the coffins were removed by the Soviet army in 1945. Until 1954, the mausoleum contained two sculptures by the Italian Donatelli, which Count von Behr had brought back from his travels. These were brought to Greifswald to the Art Institute of the University by the Kulturbund in 1954 because their protection in Bandelin was no longer guaranteed.
