Grambow Manor

The Grambow estate was owned by the von Halberstadt family; this was followed by the Lepel family, in 1766 the Swedish Thomson family, in 1803 Heinrich Függe and others. Around 1840/45, a residential building was erected above a park for the Jacobson family, based on designs by the regional master builder Carl Adolph Hermes. The Grambow estate was purchased by the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg before the First World War. After his abdication in 1918, he retained Grambow in addition to Plüschow Castle, Raben Steinfeld Estate, and the Zickhusen Meierhof; until 1945, the estate belonged to the Grand Ducal Property Administration in Schwerin. From 1945 to 1989, the manor house was used as a school for the GDR youth organization, the "Free German Youth," and was renovated shortly after the fall of the Wall.
