Gut Groß Zecher, Manor estate in Seedorf, Germany.

Gut Groß Zecher is a noble estate in the Groß Zecher district of Seedorf am Schaalsee. Two converging drive alleys lead to the manor house, an eleven-axis, single-storey classicist building erected in the early 19th century on the site of a 1720 baroque predecessor, with a five-axis two-storey central risalit, a flat triangular gable with an oval window, and two bat dormers above the roof dormers. A rear wing is two-storey timber-framed and older than the main house.

In the Middle Ages the von Zülen family from Saxony settled here and took its name from the estate; the nearby Turmhügelburg Bokop on the Zecherschen Werder peninsula was destroyed in 1349. The von Carlow family held Groß Zecher in the 14th century, followed in 1497 by the von Parkentin family, who sold it to Dietrich Wilhelm von Witzendorff in 1691 (other genealogical sources say 1694). His family established a fideicommissum, and the estate has passed by inheritance within the von Witzendorff family down to Harald von Witzendorff (1932–2017).

The name Zecher comes from the Saxon family von Zülen, who settled during medieval colonisation and called themselves von Zecher after the land. The estate stayed with the von Witzendorff family from 1691/1694 into the 21st century; Harald von Witzendorff (1932–2017) was the last lord. The two converging entrance avenues and the third avenue aligned on the manor house still shape how the grounds are read.

The estate can be reached via marked walking and cycling paths that lead through the nature park landscape. Signs and local maps help you find your way around the grounds and choose the best routes for your visit.

Near the estate, on the Zecherschen Werder peninsula in the Schaalsee, lie the remains of the Turmhügelburg Bokop, a medieval motte with a 15 m diameter; its 5 m wide surrounding ditch is still partly visible. The castle was destroyed in 1349.
