Üselitz Manor

The first documented mention of the locality Üselitz dates back to 1314. In 1562, ownership transferred from Duke Ernst Ludwig of Pomerania to Erich von Zuhm. The von Zuhm family began constructing a Renaissance-style manor house, which, however, led to their financial ruin. In the following decades, the estate changed hands multiple times: in 1644, it went to the von Ahnen family, in 1664 to the Putbus family, and before the end of the 17th century, to the von Normann family. In 1706, the Stettin councilor and merchant Friedrich von Langen acquired the estate. His descendants owned Üselitz until 1939. The last owner before the expropriation in 1945 was Burghard von Veltheim. Until the 1960s, the building was still used as a residence. After 1970, due to severe structural damage and vacancy, the roof collapsed, and the manor house fell into ruin.
