history

The Mecklenburg Gut Leezen (Schwerin Office) was owned by the von Halberstadt family for several centuries . Before 1790 the property came to the von Laffert family . As early as 1791, Marie Juliane Louise von Laffert, the widow of the Oberhauptmann von Laffert, sold the Leezen estate to Councilor Otto von Hahn auf Dammerow (Amt Lübz). In 1791 Otto von Hahn sold the estate to Matthias Franz von Bülow on Vorbeck (Crivitz Office).

In the first half of the 19th century, after several changes of ownership, the estate came to the Evers family. In 1850, Carl Detlef Evers had the manor house built in the late Classicist - early Neo- Gothic style by the Mecklenburg state master builder Alexander Friedrich Jatzow . The heirs of Carl Detlef Evers sold the estate to the Diestel family.

After the Second World War and the expropriation of the last owners, refugees and displaced persons were accommodated in the manor house . The estate was converted into an LPG . In the early 1990s the building was empty. In 1995 a complete renovation took place, whereby only the outer skin was preserved. Several condominiums and offices were set up in the manor house. The former office on the east bank of Schweriner See had a registry office in the building until the end of 2013 .

The structure of the two-storey mansion follows classicist models, but shows the details of neo-Gothic forms: Tudor arches over the windows of the first floor, four-passages in the ornamental forms in the central projections. The building is flanked by four corner turrets with pointed helmets. The three-axis central risalit on the eleven- axis courtyard side has a triangular gable with staggered windows. A single-storey extension with a roof terrace was placed in front of the central projectile on the thirteen-axis park side.
