Gutshaus Mötzow, listed building in Beetzseeheide, Brandenburg, Germany
Gutshaus Mötzow is a large manor house built in 1894 from red brick with plaster accents, featuring multiple turrets, varied window styles, and balconies on both front and rear facades. The property includes stables, a storage barn, a forge, and worker housing arranged around a central courtyard.
The manor house was built in 1894 by Friedrich Sander on land that had been settled since the 12th century. The estate passed through various hands as a working farm until World War Two, when it was seized and later managed by the church.
The manor house anchors the village identity and reflects the social structure of rural life in the region. The ensemble of buildings demonstrates how estate owners and farming workers coexisted on the land for generations.
The estate is located in a quiet village setting with open fields nearby and is easily explored on foot. Visitors can view the exterior of the buildings and attend markets or festivals held regularly on the grounds.
The former sheep barn has been converted into a restaurant where visitors can dine in a historic setting surrounded by original stone walls and wooden beams. A former storage building and smithy have been open to the public since 2004.
