Schloss Auerose, Manor house in Neu Kosenow, Germany

Schloss Auerose is a square, two-storey plastered manor house with a raised basement and a north-east corner tower topped by a curved hood. Its ten-axis south facade has a two-axis central riser with a pointed-arch double portal and an elaborate pediment with an oculus. The entrance hall spans two floors and retains rich wood carvings from the construction period.

Auerose belonged to the Benedictine abbey of Stolpe from 1152; after the Reformation the lands passed to Duke Philipp of Wolgast and in 1533 became a fief of the dukes of Schwerin, bought some 250 years later by the von Borcke family. Wilhelm von Borcke had the present house built in 1848–1849 in neo-Gothic style; in 1902 the south facade and roof were redone in Baroque taste and the north-east tower added. The family was expelled in 1945 under the land reform, flats were made in the house, and it has been privately owned since 1992.

The village of Auerose belonged to the Benedictine abbey of Stolpe from 1152; after the Reformation the lands passed to Duke Philipp of Wolgast and in 1533 became a fief of the dukes of Schwerin, before the von Borcke family bought them some 250 years later. The estate is now a protected heritage building.

The manor stands about seven kilometres south of Anklam in the Auerose district of Neu Kosenow. It is a private, only partly restored building, so visits are limited to viewing the exterior; the south facade with its double ramp and the north side facing the road can both be seen from public ground.

The south facade's double flight of steps is matched by a double ramp leading up from the park side, a feature of the 1902 neo-Baroque remodelling. The two ground-floor doorways of the south front keep their pointed neo-Gothic arches, while the columns flanking the facade carry stone basins and the pediment a bronze one.
