history
The hunting lodge was built under the name Jagdidyll Berdotaris by the seed wholesaler Alfred Metz from Berlin-Steglitz as a summer residence for hunting in Brandenburg at the beginning of the 20th century. The name Berdotaris came from his two daughters Berta and Doris, who were the godfathers of the first name. The house with its annexes was mainly used for hunting and looking after a fallow deer gate .
The hunting lodge takes its monumental protection from its function as a training center ( Hachschara camp ) of the Jewish scout association " Makkabi Hazair" for young people who were preparing to emigrate to Palestine , which lasted only briefly from 1936 to 1941 . In the Hachshara camp, the young people were supposed to learn how to work on the land so that they could later work and live in a kibbutz after they left Nazi Germany . In this short time, around 200 young people passed through the farm, preparing for their trip to Palestine. The last 48 young people could not continue on their way and were deported to Auschwitz .
After the Second World War, the building, the castle, the stables and Nebengelasse served the operation of a wounded home, in the GDR one was there Feierabendheim operated that after the turn of the AWO was operated. She left the castle grounds in 2003 because of a new building. After the building ensemble was added to the list of monuments of the state of Brandenburg at the end of the 1990s, the owner at the time, the district of Teltow-Fläming , sold the property to a private person who has been renovating the extensive building stock in small steps since then.
