Rittergut Pinnewitz, Manor house in Pinnewitz, Germany
Rittergut Pinnewitz is a manor estate near Nossen featuring residential buildings marked by timber framing and substantial stone doorframes from the 19th century. The property spans roughly 11,000 square meters (2.7 acres) and includes farm buildings alongside the main residence.
The manor house dates from the 18th century and was rebuilt after a fire in 1872. In 1926 Wörth von Ivernois took over the estate; in 1945 the owners fled from the Red Army and the property was expropriated in October 1945. During the GDR era it served, among other things, as a daycare centre.
The property displays typical Saxon rural construction methods through its stone doorframes and timber-framed details seen across country estates of the region. The mix of residential quarters, farm buildings, and auxiliary structures reflects how such estates once functioned as self-sufficient communities.
The manor house stands in the Pinnewitz district of Nossen, in the Meissen district of Saxony. The building is privately owned and lived in, so it can only be viewed from outside; the grounds and outbuildings are not open to visitors.
The estate served as a filming location for the television series Tatort: Parasomnia in 2019 following years of private restoration work. The recovery of its historical character made it appealing for such productions.
