The Neue Hakeburg is a large castle- like mansion in Kleinmachnow , a town south of Berlin . It is located on the Seeberg on the north side of the Machnower See near the Teltow Canal - Kleinmachnow lock and offers a view of the Bäketal nature reserve .

The von Hake family

The von Hake family owned the manor and the New Hakeburg, which was later built elsewhere . The most famous people of the von Hake family were the "long" Hake Hans Christoph Friedrich von Hacke and Hans von Hake (1472–1541), known as Hake von Stülpe. According to legend, in the Golmheide between Luckenwalde and Jüterbog, he took his money box from the Tetzel coming from Frankfurt (Oder) on a wild winter night (today it is kept in the St. Nikolai (Jüterbog) as a tetzel box) after he had bought a ticket for it .

The old Hakeburg

Foundations of the old Hakeburg

There was already a castle in Kleinmachnow at the beginning of the 14th century. At that time the von Löwenberg family and the mint master Thile Bruges, and afterwards the von Quast family, owned the small Brandenburg village. At the beginning of the 15th century, the feudal ownership of the Kleinmachnow and Stahnsdorf estates passed to the von Hake family, who were soon to settle on the manor themselves. The manor is behind a water mill (according to the inscription built in 1695 by Ernst Ludwig von Hake and renovated in 1856 by the von Hake brothers); Here at the entrance to the right of the village street was the old castle, of which only the remains of the foundation walls have been preserved. Immediately next to Machnow Castle, the Hakes had David Gilly build a new mansion in the classicist Baroque style in 1803 , which, like the old Hakeburg, burned out in 1943 and was demolished in 1950.

The von Hake family's tomb in the nearby church

Opposite the old manor is the tree-shaded village church , a remarkable Gothic brick building from the 16th century with a strong tower and cross vault. Inside are various memorabilia of the von Hake family, such as the remains of ten flags that Ernst Ludwig von Hake (1651–1713) dedicated to his brothers who died in the Turkish wars , a memorial stone that he erected in memory of his parents and above it a sword and two spurs that belonged to Herr von Schlabrendorf , who fell in a duel . There is also the epitaph of General Friedrich von Hake (died 1743) and several coats of arms. Under the church is the von Hake family's tomb.

The New Hakeburg

New Hakeburg

Some distance from the old manor on the Seeberg on the other side of the Machnower See is the so-called Neue Hakeburg. It was built from 1906 to 1908 for Dietloff von Hake, the cousin of the landlord at the time, by the architect Bodo Ebhardt in neo-Romanesque style.

Due to financial problems, the building including 44 hectares of land was sold in 1936 to the Reichspost , which converted it into the residence of Reichspostminister Wilhelm Ohnesorge in 1938 and continued to set up the research institute of the German Reichspost (RPF) here. The area was then used as a research and test center for various types of aircraft , especially flying wings , radio measurement systems, transmitter units, control devices, broadband cables, general radio and television equipment. These projects were led by the Main Economic and Administrative Office (WVHA) of the SS .

On December 2, 1943, a British Lancaster bomber was shot down and crashed near the Neue Hakeburg. The Norwegian writer Nordahl Grieg was also killed in the crash.

In the Soviet occupation zone and later in the GDR , the palace served as a party college for the SED from 1948 . a. Wolfgang Leonhard and Carola Stern . Later the Neue Hakeburg was temporarily the seat of the intelligence club Joliot-Curie and was then converted into a guest house of the SED. Statesmen such as Nikita Khrushchev , Fidel Castro , Yassir Arafat and Mikhail Gorbachev resided here .

After the peaceful revolution, the hotel company Hakeburg GmbH was founded in May 1990. As the Independent Commission for the Examination of the Assets of the Parties and Mass Organizations of the GDR (UKVP) determined, in 1990 the PDS received an operating loan of 50,000 D-Marks from the PDS in the course of its illegal asset shifts . The money had to be paid back later. After reunification, Deutsche Telekom became the owner of the property . The later owner, ORCO Germany SA, planned to use the Neue Hakeburg as a hotel, as well as the construction of a bed block and an underground car park, which was laid down in the municipal development plan adopted in 2010. Since no reputable hotel operator was found, a new use has been sought since 2012 by installing 16 condominiums.

In 2004 and 2005, Neue Hakeburg was the location of the ProSieben television series 18 - Alone Among Girls . The ZDF turned from summer 2005 to August 2006 on the grounds of the New Hakeburg for Telenovela Path to Happiness . The New Hakeburg served as the exterior of Villa Gravenberg. The television film Schattenmoor , released in 2019 and produced by ProSieben, also plays on Neue Hakeburg.

Since October 1999 the new Hakeburg has been claimed by the self-proclaimed government in exile of the micronation Sealand because they (allegedly) leased it for 99 years.

In October 2016, the Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung reported on the condition of the vacant property in the article Entry into ruins .
