Essenrode Manor, Baroque manor house in Lehre, Germany.
Description
Essenrode Manor is a baroque country house featuring symmetrical design and ornamental stone work across its exterior walls. The estate includes an English-style park laid out around the building with a moat that forms part of the historic landscape.
History
The manor was built in 1738 by the Bülow family as their country residence. The von Lüneburg family, descendants of the House of Welf, took over the property in 1837 and shaped it through the following decades.
Culture
The manor served as the social and administrative center of its local area, where the owning family managed estates and conducted official business. Today it reflects how important such country houses were to rural life and local governance.
Practical
The grounds are open to visitors, though checking conditions and access times beforehand is wise before making the trip. The park and surroundings can be explored on foot at a relaxed pace.
