Gut Ascheberg, Estate and château in Ascheberg, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.

The estate extends along the western shore of Großer Plöner See lake, featuring gardens and a neoclassical mansion built between 1869 and 1870.

The property dates back to 1190 when it began as a water castle near the Saxon-Wendish border, later becoming a fortified knight's seat in the 13th century.

The estate maintains traditional agricultural practices while hosting seasonal markets and festivals that showcase regional products and local craftsmanship.

The mansion now operates as a youth recreation center, with parts of the 1,100-hectare property open to visitors during annual farmer's markets.

Hans zu Rantzau, who owned the estate in 1739, became the first landowner in Holstein to abolish serfdom and grant field ownership to peasants.
