Herrenhaus Blankensee, Manor house in Trebbin, Germany.
Herrenhaus Blankensee is a two-story baroque building with a mansard roof and a central gable entrance located in Trebbin, Brandenburg. The structure serves today as an event venue and can be explored through guided tours that focus on its historical rooms and the Sudermann memorial chamber.
An earlier castle once stood on this site but was destroyed by fires in 1615 and 1655. Christian Wilhelm von Thümen rebuilt the location with the current baroque manor between 1739 and 1741, which later became home to the writer Sudermann.
The manor became home to writer Hermann Sudermann, whose presence is preserved today in a dedicated memorial room where visitors can see how this early 20th-century author arranged his workspace. The rooms reflect the atmosphere of a literary life lived here during his most productive years.
The estate can be visited through guided tours that specifically focus on the Sudermann memorial rooms and the historical chambers. Advance arrangements are recommended for visitor access, and the tours provide insight into how the manor was used during its literary period.
The Sudermann memorial room was specifically arranged to document his life and artistic work at this location, displaying personal objects and documents that reveal his connection to both the manor and its surroundings. This dedicated space offers a window into how a literary figure of his era worked and lived.
