Sierhagen estate
The Sierhagen estate , originally the Wendish aristocratic castle Syra or Zyra , is an estate in the municipality of Altenkrempe near Neustadt in Holstein in the Neustädter Bucht . Sierhagen (Syra) was first mentioned in the 12th century.
history
Around 1304 Syra was owned by Volrad and his brothers from the Syra family. Around 1316 it says in a Lübeck document that the "Feste Syraa" is in the possession of the "mighty knights Marquard and Eccard von Westensee" who were founded by Gerhard III. Allocated fiefdom also belonged to Grömitz, Körnik and half Schlammin (tribe of the nobles from Westensee, old leading line of the Holsaten, with a squirrel in their coat of arms).
From the Middle Ages to the middle of the 17th century, Gut Sierhagen was owned by the Schleswig-Holstein aristocratic Buchwaldt family, with minor interruptions . In 1666 the Counts Dernath were lords of Sierhagen for two generations. They were followed in 1730 by the Brockdorff family . In 1765, Wulf Heinrich von Thienen acquired Sierhagen, who later bequeathed it to Plessen (later Scheel von Plessen or Scheel-Plessen ), who have owned it since 1809. Carl von Scheel-Plessen and Victor Baron von Plessen were born on the estate .
Buildings and plants
The manor complex consists of a rectangular courtyard of approx. 100 m × 50 m, surrounded by moats, surrounded by four buildings and accessible through gatehouses (from 1738 and 1857) in the south-west and east . In the southeast of the complex, slightly separated from the courtyard buildings, is the classicist manor house - a rectangular, three-storey building with an articulated hipped roof and central gable . The manor house was originally a semi-detached house typical of Holstein , which was rebuilt in a classicist style in 1825 under the Hamburg architect Alexis de Chateauneuf . The barns required for running the estate are located outside the actual farm area and were built around 1880.
The Sierhagen estate covers an area of around 1,650 hectares and is run by Carl Graf von Scheel-Plessen and his son Carl-Christian von Scheel-Plessen. The facility is not open to the public, but is occasionally the site of various public events. The iceberg near Sierhagen , located outside the estate, is a Neolithic burial mound .
Gut Sierhagen was the setting for the film adaptation of the 1978 novel Jauche und Levkojen by Christine Brückner .
