history
The place Bauditten has been mentioned in a document since 1321. The allodial manor Bauditten, with Boditten, Gischainen, Groß and Klein Rüppertswalde, was owned by the von Diebes family after the monastery was dissolved. The property was given to the last Grand Master of the Teutonic Order , Duke Friedrich of Saxony , in 1506 , and to the secular Duke in Prussia, Margrave Albrecht of Brandenburg , in 1530 .
After that, the manor was owned by the Swedish Colonel von Rappen from 1668, the von Kleist family from around 1750 , Friedrich von Auerswald from 1794, Ernst von Foelkersamb from 1803 and Gustav von Frantius from 1827.
In 1855, Ferdinand Wilhelm Eben, the actual founder of the property, bought the estate together with his wife Agnes de Froideville. Due to the previous purchase of separated land in Ebenau approx. 3000 acres, the area had a size of approx. 10,000 acres. In 1905 the place had 500 inhabitants, of which 496 were Protestant and 4 were Catholic (1933: 676 inhabitants). The size of the corridor was around 2000 hectares in 1920.
The estate included a dairy, brickworks, peat cutting plant, distillery and the Ebenhöh train station on the Marienburg – Miswalde – Maldeuten – Allenstein line . The station building is built in the style of a Norwegian stave church. The advantageous location and transport links through the Osteroder Chaussee, the Oberland Canal not far from the 'Inclined Plane' and with the Ebenhöh (Ostpr) train station on the Małdyty – Malbork (Maldeuten – Marienburg) railway offered favorable sales channels for the income from arable farming and the Industry. The focus of cultivation on the good soils was the sugar beet.
The manor house, located on a lake and surrounded by a landscaped park, was built in 1857 in the style of Italian residential architecture. The location of the castle with important parks and gardens made this property a preferred one in the province. The von Eben family managed the estate until 1945. The last owner until it was expelled by the Red Army in 1945 was Hans-Emil von Eben.
After the fall of the Wall, the manor house, manor building, landscaped park, old trees, roads with tree avenues were largely dilapidated and neglected. For several years there has been a new owner for the land. 1300 hectares are farmed again.
