History of the building
The first written mention of the building took place in 1687 when the manor house was commissioned by Johann Litzmann, who built a knight's seat in Buskow. There was already a manor house in Buskow before, but it was burned down during the Northern War . Buskow was rebuilt in the following years. The exact year of construction of the manor house is not known, but the building is mentioned in 1706, when the manor house belonged to the hussar general von Schwendy. Another mention followed in 1713, when Hans Joachim von Zieten presented himself to General von Schwendy. Today it is difficult to keep track of the owners of the property without interruption, but the property is mentioned as the owners of Oppen and Baron von Taker until 1745, and Field Marshal Friedrich Wilhelm von Dossow in 1758 . After his death, Hans Joachim von Zieten bought the property. In 1765 Friedrich the Great visited von Zieten in the manor house. On January 25, 1771, Oberstwachtmeister Franz Casimir von Kleist acquired the manor house.
The second major renovation from around 1900–1930 brought, among other things, the addition of the upstream boiler house and the entrance building. At the end of the Second World War , the Red Army occupied the place. The estate, which had been in the possession of the von Oppen and von Rohr families since 1929 , was expropriated in the course of the land reform in the Soviet Zone in autumn 1945 and the manor was later used as a residential and commercial building in the GDR , from around 1960. During the third major renovation in 1975, the building was converted into a grocery store, a doctor’s practice and several self-contained apartments. After the fall of the Wall , the city of Neuruppin took over the building in 1990 and left it empty with only small interruptions until the beginning of 2012.
Today the entire building is in very poor condition. The building is listed.
