Wümmehof

The Wümmehof is a protected heritage property in Borgfeld consisting of a main residence and a steward's house, both completed in 1939. The structures were designed by architect Friedrich Schumacher following traditional Bremen architectural style.

The property was completed in 1939 and served as the primary residence of Prince Louis Ferdinand of Prussia from 1950 to 1994. The noble connection shaped the estate's significance during the second half of the 20th century.

The garden was designed in 1909 by Friedrich Gildemeister and reflects early 20th-century formal garden design principles. This landscaping remains a defining feature of the property today.

The estate is located along Katrepeler Landstraße and visible from the road, though closer inspection may not always be possible. The surrounding grounds offer a good sense of the overall layout and design.

Following a major renovation in 2014, the estate was divided into multiple residential units while preserving its historical structures. This adaptation demonstrates how traditional country properties can serve contemporary living needs.
