Klenderhof, Historic mansion in Kampen, Sylt, Germany

The Klenderhof spans over 20,000 square meters of land and contains twelve rooms with five bathrooms across 600 square meters of living space.

Built in 1932 by Berlin architect Otto Firle for Charlotte Baldner, the building's construction plans were initially sketched on the back of a restaurant menu.

The mansion served as a guest house for publisher Axel Springer, hosting numerous public figures including conductor Erich Kleiber and aviator Margot von Opel.

The property includes a distinctive tower with a round music room, offering views of the surrounding Wadden Sea and natural landscape.

In 1973, unknown perpetrators set fire to the thatched roof, destroying the north wing, though quick intervention prevented total destruction of the building.
