Life

Georg Bernhard von Bülow, born in 1768, came from the Mecklenburg primeval nobility of the von Bülow family . In 1787 he was commissioned by the then Prussian King, Friedrich Wilhelm II., As a hunting squire, to assess the royal forests. This was followed by promotions to forest master (1794) and chief forest master von Westphalen (1798). In 1803 he was transferred to Stettin at his own request . After 30 years of civil service, the self-targeted release from this took place in 1817.

Memorial stone for Georg Bernhard von Bülow in Heringsdorf

In addition to his political activities, Georg Bernhard von Bülow had a decisive influence on the tourist development of the island of Usedom . Together with his brother Ernst von Bülow-Cummerow (1775-1851), he acquired the Gothen manor with the associated towns of Neuhof, Neukrug and Adelig- Ahlbeck for 45,000 thalers in 1817 . The economic use took place first by selling the existing wood stock on the manor before the establishment of guest quarters began.

Georg Bernhard von Bülow had the White Castle built on the Kulm , an elevation near the coast, the first guest quarters of today's Baltic Sea resort of Heringsdorf . In 1825 the bathing business in Heringsdorf began successively. Another building he built is today's Villa Achterkerke from 1845. He left a plot of land on the Kulm to the parish of Heringsdorf, where the parish built the church in the forest .

In 1851 von Bülow sold his manor Gothen, including the Heringsdorfer bathing establishments, to Louis von Treskow (1799-1865).

After his death in 1855, a memorial stone was erected for him near the Heringsdorf church. This was destroyed in 1965. In 1999 a new memorial stone with a bronze plaque for the "founder of Heringsdorf" was inaugurated.
