Culture and sights

Castle and Park

Weteritzer Castle

Weteritzer Park

• Worth seeing is the manor house built for the von Alvensleben family in 1831 with the Weteritzer Park , which was designed in 1830/31 and which was designed by Peter Joseph Lenné .

• The manor Weteritz was sold in 1857 to the ducal-Anhalt councilor Carl Heinrich Theodor Roth from Dessau, whose family managed the property until it was expropriated in 1945. With this sale, the von Alvensleben family lost the title of count, which they had only been awarded in 1840 on condition that their possessions were preserved in full. Carl Heinrich Roth was awarded the order of a knight 1st class of the ducal-Anhalt house order "Albrecht the Bear" for the "clearing of the field" . His son, Hubert Roth, was a recognized dendrologist .

• In 1934 Weteritz was visited as part of the annual conference of the German Dendrological Society and mentioned in the conference proceedings. Plants imported by Roth such as hemlocks from North America can still be seen in the park today.

• In 2009 the Roth family made claims to parts of the inventory that had been in the castle and in the family property until 1945. These were discovered in the town hall of Gardelegen and - in contrast to real estate - partially returned.
• During the GDR era, the castle housed a retirement home ("Feierabendheim Wilhelm Pieck").

• After the fall of the Wall, the state subsidized the renovation of the listed castle or manor house . The area has been privately owned since 1994 without any concrete implementation measures for sustainable use. In 2010 the castle should change hands again. However, the sale did not take place because the investor turned out to be dubious and was arrested for attempted subsidy fraud in the millions. The castle is currently being maintained in accordance with the protection of monuments , the park is maintained in coordination with the State Office for Monument Preservation and Archeology .

• At the beginning of 2016, two entrepreneurs from Dresden / Hamburg bought the abandoned mansion. Apartments were planned that were expressly not in the luxury segment. The manor is currently for sale again. The building is listed as a manor in the monument register.

Cemetery and church

• In the cemetery there is also a Madonna as a tomb for the government councilor Curt Roth, who died in the First World War . Its origin from Ernst Barlach's workshop is controversial.
• The former Protestant church, a heavily redesigned Romanesque building from classicism around 1840, is now a residential building and is a listed building.
