Schloss Großheide, Cultural heritage château in Großheide, Germany.

Schloss Großheide is a former estate complex at the southern edge of Großheide on Schloßstraße, built in 1901 as the estate manager's residence for the Ten Doornkaat family. According to the Doornkaat AG report of 1906, it comprised several cattle sheds, a solidly built barn, two field barns, a steward's house with horse stable and three workers' dwellings. The large ox shed stood almost exactly where the Volks- und Raiffeisenbank Großheide now stands.

Around 1900 Jan (III.) ten Doornkaat Koolmann bought 1,045 Morgen (267 hectares) of heath and wasteland in Großheide and Menstede-Coldinne for 347,000 marks. The estate, named Gut Friederikenfeld after his mother, was to fatten cattle with distillery residue. The manor house was built in 1901 as the estate manager's residence; in 1919 most buildings and remaining land passed to the district of Norden.

The estate was named Gut Friederikenfeld after the first name of the owner's mother. In 2010 the former school centre in Großheide was renamed Friederikenschule in her memory, so the name still appears on a local institution.

The protected monument underwent major renovations in 2006 and now serves as a residential facility rather than a public museum. Visitors should check ahead since it is a private property not open for casual tours.

The large oxen shed stood almost exactly where the Volks- und Raiffeisenbank Großheide now stands. The estate's threshing set was first driven by a Lokomobil, a portable steam engine, and later by an electric motor.
