Good gresse
The Good Gresse was a Gutsanlage in Gresse in the district Ludwigslust-Parchim in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern . Spatially separated by a street, on the one hand the representative manor house with park and the royal stables, which was built until 1860 according to plans by Heinrich Thormann in the neo-Gothic style, and on the other hand the courtyard with stables and the estate manager's house belonged to the property. Many of the buildings are empty and in a desolate condition.
location
The street village of Gresse is located in the far west of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, about five kilometers north of Boizenburg / Elbe . The residential development of the place is mainly on both sides of the Zarrentiner Straße ( Bundesstraße 195 ) as well as along a few side streets. The manor house with park is located about 200 meters west of the main road in an island location. The Boize runs directly behind the building ; in front of it is the castle pond, which is connected to the Boize. Directly on Zarrentiner Straße is the decaying, fenced-off former stables. A school and a kindergarten are in the immediate vicinity.
East of Zarrentiner Straße is the former manor with stables, the distillery and remains of the courtyard wall, the fire ruins of the manor house and the baroque village church.
manor
The neo-Gothic, two-storey and irregularly structured plastered building was built in 1849/50 according to plans by the architect Heinrich Thormann , after a previous building at another location was demolished in 1849 under Georg von Drenckhahn. In the east facade, the building has two raised, stepped gables that partially cover the flat hipped roof. The eaves is by ogival arches and ornamental friezes decorated. Raised pillars structure various wall surfaces. At the southeast end an octagonal, crenellated observation tower is integrated into the building, next to it on the roof is another, narrower tower with a weather vane. On the east facade there is a terrace with a two-flight flight of stairs in front . An outside staircase also connects to the winter garden on the rear facade. The romanticized octagonal ceiling painting in the tower room is something special.
After the Second World War, the manor house was used as a retirement home until spring 1997. In 1998 a community of heirs living in the USA was the owner. The building has been empty since then and is falling into disrepair. Ceiling covering, ceiling paintings and the winter garden are badly damaged. A fire in 2008 caused damage to the roof structure and wooden ceiling. As of December 2010, the mansion is being offered for sale by a real estate company.
Courtyard
The horse stable of the facility, which was used until 1990, is decorated with two horse head sculptures and a coat of arms. In addition to cast iron pillars, the interior walls were decorated with stucco and tiles. The year 1875 can be seen on the building. Most of the buildings are empty.
Manor's house
The plastered building, which once stood directly on the main road, was level with the manor house. A fire in October 2009 caused considerable property damage. The fire ruin was already empty and was demolished between 2011 and 2012. A home was under construction at the beginning of 2013.
Ownership of the property
Count Nikolaus von Schwerin donated two Hufen land in Gresse to the Boizenburg Church on June 9, 1297 . From August 1, 1328, the estate was owned by four brothers Giese, Heinrich, Werner and Segeband von Sprengel. In 1625 the main property was pledged to Hartwig von Schack . After that the ownership changed frequently. In 1872 the estate passed to Albertus Ohlendorff , who was raised to the nobility in 1873. After 1998 a community of heirs from the USA.
