history
The current building goes back to a mansion built by Ernst Philipp von Münchow in 1743 . After Joachim Erdmann von Arnim , father of the poet Achim von Arnim , bought the property in 1763 , the building was rebuilt in the Rococo style. For this period the house is described with many towers and a Turkish look. In a letter from 1811, however, a collapse of two towers is mentioned. Achim von Arnim, who was the owner of the estate from 1804 to 1818, considered moving to the Friedenfelde manor during this time. At times he lived in the house. Another renovation took place around 1820, according to other information between 1822 and 1840. Here the decorations were removed again.
After several owners followed one another, Annois von Arnim acquired the property again in 1901, according to another statement in 1904. However, he did not live on the property, which was managed by an administrator. His son then moved back into the estate in 1923 and also managed the on-site management. In the course of the land reform , the Arnim family was expropriated after the end of the Second World War . The agricultural areas were distributed to farmers, but later managed by the state-owned Gut Temmen . The manor house served as a tenement house. A boundary stone in front of the manor house reminds of the time when the corridors were divided. The parcel boundary then led through the building.
Demolition of the house was planned in the 1970s. On the initiative of a resident, the manor house was then placed under monument protection by resolution of May 24, 1979. There were then plans to set up a daycare center in the house. In some cases structural alterations were initiated, but these were improperly carried out, particularly in the area of the master's room. The Nowatzki family has lived in the house since mid-1993. She acquired the building in 1996 and began a gradual renovation. In 1997 new windows were installed. In the following period, further work related to the house's electrical system, water connections, the implementation of two tiled stoves and the renewal of two entrance doors. From the end of 1999 the former farm kitchen could be used again as a kitchen. In May 2001 a café was opened on the ground floor, which was expanded in 2003/2004 to include a sanitary wing, a fireplace room and an office.
Manor park
The manor park extends north of the manor house. It is believed that it was laid out in the course of the Rococo reconstruction from 1763. At times, the park is said to have also included the vineyard to the west, on which a small pavilion was probably located for some time.
In its center, a roundabout made up of eight linden trees and a central tree was probably created in the 1920s . A small bridge led over an outlet of the pond. The park was maintained until 1945. In later years the septic tank overflow was channeled into the park's pond. This resulted in over-fertilization and contamination. As of 1995, the park was cleaned as part of an AB measure and heavily overgrown elderberries were removed. The forgotten roundabout has been rediscovered. According to a former employee of the manor, the route was laid out again. Today (as of 2012) the park is more of an alluvial forest .
The park features maple, birch, beech, oak, alder, ash, hazel, chestnut, pine, linden, elm and elm, with linden trees lining the main paths in the park. There are some old fruit trees on the edge of the park, such as Boskop , Hasenkopf and Pflaume. In addition, there are blackberries , wood anemones , lilacs , forsythias , gorse , bluebells , dog rose , raspberries, elder , buckthorn , lily of the valley , eucoat , pennywort , sea buckthorn , celandine , sloe , forget-me-not , hawthorn .
The park's fauna includes seven species of bats. Of birds were Treecreeper , Jay , finch , green woodpecker , Grosbeak , cuckoo , titmouse , middle spotted woodpecker , nightingale , oriole , black woodpecker , sparrow , turtledove , Fieldfare and tawny owl observed.
