Manor House Kobrow+

The Manor House Kobrow was built in 1860 on behalf of the von Bülow family. In 1945, the owners were dispossessed and expelled by the communists.

Architecture and History+

The manor house is a two-story, plastered brick building with a hipped roof. The facade is adorned with a central risalit and a portico with columns. The building was originally designed in the style of classicism, but later additions and alterations also show elements of the Neo-Renaissance.

After the expropriation in 1945, the manor house was used for various purposes, including as a refugee accommodation, a school, and a municipal administration building. In the 1990s, the building stood empty for several years and fell into disrepair.

Current Use and Future+

In 2005, the Manor House Kobrow was acquired by a private investor and extensively renovated. Today, it houses a hotel and a restaurant. The former stables and barns have been converted into event rooms and holiday apartments.

The manor house is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike. It regularly hosts cultural events, concerts, and exhibitions. The owners are committed to preserving the historical heritage of the building and making it accessible to the public.
