Herrenhaus Pansevitz, Renaissance estate park in Kluis, Germany.
Herrenhaus Pansevitz is a historic manor house in Kluis, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, set within a large park with old rows of linden trees. The building dates to the late 16th century and the grounds are crossed by paths that lead through wooded sections and open park areas.
The manor was built in 1597 and first belonged to the von Krassow family. Through marriage in the 19th century it passed to the princes of Inn- and Knyphausen, who used it as a noble residence.
The mansion shows northern German estate architecture with features from different periods visible on its facade. The long rows of linden trees framing the grounds are one of the most noticeable elements for visitors walking through the site today.
The grounds now operate as a Friedwald, a forest burial site, and the walking paths are open to the public. Sturdy footwear is a good idea since the paths pass through wooded sections that can be uneven or damp.
After World War II, local residents took apart sections of the manor and reused the materials for their own building projects. This left visible marks on the structure that can still be noticed by attentive visitors today.
