Die Anfänge
Gleina was first mentioned in a document in 1144. The place was the ancestral seat of the knights "von Gleina" (Glyna, Glina), who were first named in 1245. In 1689, construction of Gleina Castle began. In 1830, the Prussian chamberlain Bernhard von Helldorff bought the castle and estate. In 1945, his descendants were dispossessed and expelled by the communists. Until 1996, the castle was used, among other things, as a retirement home, nursery, and rural outpatient clinic. In 2007, renovation work began.
