Manor house in Karow, Manor house with neoclassical elements in Karow, Plau am See, Germany.

The Manor house in Karow consists of two connected houses: the Old Palace, a Neoclassical plastered building with thirteen axes, two storeys and a shallow hipped roof, and the New Palace, a seven-axis Neo-Baroque addition with a slate-covered mansard roof. The Old Palace's south side has a three-axis central risalit with round-arched windows framed by colossal pilasters and the von Cleve coat of arms in the gable.

Karow was first documented on 23 April 1254. Around 1295 a knight, Huno von Karow, is said to have held the estate; the von Hahn family owned it until 1605. The Old Palace was rebuilt after 1789 for Otto Conrad von Hahn, and around 1800 Franz Ludwig von Reden and Ernst von Lenthe had the new manor house built. In 1898 Johannes Schlutius acquired the 3,132-hectare estate.

The estate is known for having manor houses from two successive eras side by side, probably the only such case in Mecklenburg besides Peckatel. The interior furnishings were largely lost in 1945; today's decor comes from other properties. The park, laid out between 1845 and 1870 as an English landscape garden, was extended around 1900 with exotic trees such as plane trees and swamp cypresses.

The estate lies directly on the B192 between Goldberg and Malchow, with the two linked manor houses standing side by side; the entrance to the newer house is on its west side, facing the farmyard. The landscape park, laid out between 1845 and 1870, extends south of the buildings. The Schlutius family mausoleum, now ruined, stands about 500 metres east of the house outside the park.

The manor's ruined Schlutius mausoleum, built 1912–1916 about 500 metres east of the house outside the park, follows the style of Theodoric's tomb. Its marble walls and mosaic ceiling are gone, but the mourning bronze figure by Wilhelm Wandschneider, placed at the entrance in 1919, was recovered and now stands in Karow's cemetery chapel.
