history

Manor house in Linstow

The family first appeared in a document on July 22, 1281 in Rostock with the knight Gherardus de Linstowe . The family line begins with the knight Heinrich von Linstow , who is mentioned in a document from 1301 to 1318 . The family still exists today in Germany and in some lines with a large number of members in Denmark . There she was granted the Danish nobility naturalization on January 28, 1777.

Anna von Linstow, b. von Levetzow entered the Dobbertin monastery as a widow in 1500 and bequeathed 100 guilders to the monastery for her daughters Dorothea and Anna who lived there. From 1682 to 1704 Ilsabe Lucie von Linstow was a conventual in the Dobbertin Monastery.

In the registration book of the Dobbertin monastery there are eight entries by the daughters of the Linstow families from Bellin , Diestelow and Vietschow from the years 1736–1814 for inclusion in the local aristocratic women's monastery . Around 1880 the Linstow family had their Linstow manor , which was probably built during the Thirty Years' War , rebuilt.

The estate in Klocksin belonged to the family until the 14th century.
Castle and Gut Damerow and Neu Damerow were family owned from 1605 to 1784.
