Rittergut von Behr, Manor estate in Hoya, Germany.
The two-story classical manor house features half-timbered construction with plastered panels and a jerkinhead roof with dormers near the Weser River.
First documented in 1189, the estate was destroyed during the Thirty Years' War in 1625 and rebuilt in 1721, only to burn again in 1758.
The Knights' Hall, added in 1829, contains panoramic wallpaper depicting Alexander von Humboldt's arrival in Brazil, produced by Jean Zuber et Cie.
The property includes the main building, stable, four gate posts from 1733, brick wall remains, and a milking house with a jerkinhead roof.
British forces requisitioned the manor in 1945, establishing a casino in the Knights' Hall where soldiers reportedly shot at bulls and crocodiles on the wallpaper.
