Gutshaus Geisendorf, Manor house in Neupetershain, Germany.
Gutshaus Geisendorf is a rectangular two-story manor house featuring early classical architecture with a prominent central risalit and decorative meander frieze on its main facade. The building's carefully designed proportions and ornamental details define its distinctive appearance.
The estate was managed by the von Löben family starting in 1486 and later passed to other noble families including von Nostitz and von der Marwitz until 1937. This extended period of ownership shaped the property's development across several centuries.
The manor serves as a cultural forum presenting exhibitions about regional history and heritage. Visitors can learn about the area's past through displays and materials focused on local connections.
The building is located at Jahnstraße 7 and can be visited, with exterior photography possible at any time. Planning your visit in advance is recommended to check the current exhibitions and opening hours of the cultural forum.
After extensive restoration work in 1995, the manor house stands as a remnant of a vanished world, as the surrounding village was cleared for mining operations in 2001. It remains today as the last witness to historical Geisendorf in the region's changing landscape.
