In 1389 Berthold von Rethem is named as the owner of Gut Klausdorf, in 1495 Edgar Garlepow and in 1520 the Stralsund councilors Heinrich Sonnenberg and Jürgen Buchow. His great-granddaughter Barbara, widow of Johann Hagemeister, was the owner of the Klausdorf farm in 1695. The so-called Rampenhof, another property in Klausdorf, belonged to the St. Annen und Brigitten monastery in Stralsund in 1628 . After Barbara Hagemeister also acquired this in 1701, Klausdorf was owned by the Hagemeister family until it was expropriated in 1945, the rare example of a bourgeois estate that had been inherited since the Renaissance period (1520).
