Schloss Varchentin, Tudor Gothic manor house in Varchentin, Germany.

The three-story mansion displays castellated crowns, corner towers, and varying building heights across its main facade and courtyard front.

Built in 1847 by Swiss architect Auguste de Meuron for Hamburg merchant Gottlieb Jenisch, the estate later passed to Counts Grote through marriage in 1875.

The manor incorporates English Tudor architectural elements, featuring a preserved wooden staircase and substantial double-sided chimney within its structure.

The manor house remains closed for interior visits, with only external viewing possible as the building continues to await renovation.

A landscape park designed by Peter Joseph Lenné in 1838 extends toward Varchentin Lake, containing an 1895 neo-Renaissance mausoleum of the Grote family.
