Gut Rastorf, Cultural heritage ensemble in Rastorf, Germany.

The Gut Rastorf estate features symmetrical baroque structures, including a manor house, cavalier house, and farm buildings arranged around a central courtyard.

Built between 1723 and 1729 under architect Rudolph Mattias Dallin, the estate replaced a medieval water castle that served as a border fortification.

The Rantzau family has maintained ownership of Gut Rastorf since the 14th century, preserving traditional agricultural practices and architectural elements.

Visitors can explore the grounds through designated pathways, observing both the early classicist manor house and the surrounding baroque farm buildings.

A memorial stone crafted from Norwegian marble by Danish sculptor Johannes Wiedewelt stands in the park, commemorating Christian Emil Reichsgraf zu Rantzau.
