Schloss Neetzow, Gothic Revival manor house in Neetzow-Liepen, Germany

Schloss Neetzow is a Gothic Revival manor in Neetzow-Liepen, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, with multiple fireplaces and wooden floors throughout its spacious rooms. The building stands out for its architectural design featuring characteristic elements from the 19th century.

The Neetzow estate passed to the Holstein-origin von Kruse family in 1803. Wilhelm von Kruse had Friedrich Hitzig design the new manor, built from 1848 to 1851 with bricks from the family's own brickyard. Wolf von Kruse, the last owner, was expropriated in September 1945; the house was looted that same year, though fireplaces, stucco and wall paintings survived. From 1952 to 1962 it housed the State Folklore Ensemble of the GDR, then the Institute of Agricultural Economics until 1991. Privatised in 2001, it reopened in 2004 as a 29-room hotel.

The estate's name comes from the village of Neetzow, held by the von Kruse family from Holstein from 1803. From 1952 to 1962 the manor housed the State Folklore Ensemble of the GDR, which performed worldwide; a dance hall was added for its training. The ensemble then moved to Neustrelitz, and an agricultural economics institute followed until 1991.

The manor has operated as a 29-room hotel with a restaurant since 2004, and since early 2021 the hotel has been run on a lease by the grandchildren of the von Kruse family. The grounds lie on a plateau ringed by the former 20-hectare landscape park, with a 1.2-hectare pond; paths lead past the grotto and the old estate yard southwest of the park.

The park's grotto was built from the brickyard's rejects, that is, from melted bricks, and a small stream runs beneath it toward the lake. Two smaller seating grottoes made of specially shaped fieldstones stand north of the path by the lake and north of the manor.
