Lebbin Castle , called "Blücher Castle" in the 19th century, is the manor house of the former Lebbin manor in today's municipality of Göhren-Lebbin , Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania . The original building, erected in 1842, was largely demolished in 1912 and replaced by a more representative new building in the neo-baroque style. Today the "Schlosshotel Fleesensee" is housed there.

history

In 1842, Count Ludwig II von Blücher had a new manor house built outside of the manor complex at that time, which included an almost eight-hectare landscape park .

In 1871 Hubert Freiherr von Tiele-Winckler bought the property. He had inherited a large fortune in the Upper Silesian coal mining as well as in the iron and steel industry and thus acquired various goods in Mecklenburg . After his death in 1893, Walter Freiherr von Tiele-Winckler inherited the estate and, among other things, had a winter garden and three other towers added to the manor house. In addition, in 1889 he arranged for electrical lighting to be installed . After his death in 1909, his half-brother Raban and his mother Rose inherited the property.

Raban Freiherr von Tiele-Winckler frequented the circles of the German nobility and needed representative rooms in which festivities could take place according to court standards. Since the building from 1842 did not offer sufficient possibilities for a simple interior conversion due to its construction method with mostly clay frameworks, he commissioned the Berlin architects Ernst Paulus and Olaf Lilloe , who had excellent references with comparable buildings, with a partially new building. Only the foundations , the basement, the outer walls of the ground floor and the pair of towers were used from the previous building, while most of the current structure was rebuilt.

The architects designed a mansion with neo-baroque elements, the equipment of which was much more modern than was common at the time. The palace had more than 100 rooms and a 170 square meter ballroom and had central heating , a food and passenger elevator and a central vacuum cleaner system. The striking spiral and magnificent staircase still characterizes the entrance hall of the castle, which was originally furnished with furniture and hunting trophies from Tiele-Winckler's trip to India . The partially new building cost around 640,000 marks , excluding the architect's fee and terrace system , which, when converted to the large building volume, resulted in a comparatively moderate price of 36 marks per cubic meter of enclosed space.

In 1934 Raban Freiherr von Tiele-Winckler sold the estate. During the Second World War , part of the manor house served as a school; after the war, the Red Army initially used it as a hospital , and later refugees lived there. In the GDR era, the building housed the municipal administration, a shop, a doctor's practice, a kindergarten and an egg collection point.

The renovation of the manor house began with the takeover of the property by the Coal Office in Berlin in 1973, which was later continued by the state-owned Kombinat secondary raw material collection Berlin ( SERO ). In 1986 SERO opened a vacation home. It was renovated from 1997 in connection with the construction of the “ Land Fleesensee ” holiday and leisure complex . After the political change, the "Hotel Schloss Blücher" was a hotel of the Radisson Blu hotel chain for 15 years . Since March 2015 the hotel has been owner-managed as the “Schlosshotel Fleesensee”.

Every year in November, the "Strolling Ball" takes place in the Schlosshotel, with the participation of the Neubrandenburg Philharmonic and other musical actors.
