Gut Siblin, der Gemeinde Ahrensbök im Kreis Ostholstein zugehörig
Gut Siblin is a country estate in Holstein Switzerland near Ahrensbök that functions primarily as a working farm and holiday rental property. The grounds spread across fields and woodlands with traditional stone buildings, renovated guest houses, and a helicopter landing area nearby.
The estate was first mentioned in 1295 under the Slavic name Cetelin and was originally a settlement of Slavic peoples. Over centuries it changed hands multiple times, was connected to a monastery, belonged to the Rantzau family, and has been operated by the Heine family since the early 1900s.
The name Siblin comes from the Slavic name Cetelin dating to 1304, reflecting the early inhabitants of this region. Today this heritage appears in how the buildings and land are maintained and how visitors can sense the connection to earlier times.
The estate sits about 10 kilometers (6 miles) south of Eutin and 3 kilometers (2 miles) north of Ahrensbök along Route 184. Visitors can explore the fields and forests on foot, find holiday accommodations, purchase seasonal products like Christmas trees and meat products, and observe the helicopter landing area that serves as an emergency center.
Since 2007 a rescue helicopter called Christoph 12 operates from the landing pad on the estate, flying emergency missions daily from early morning to evening. Additionally the Trave River, the longest river in Schleswig-Holstein, springs near the estate and shapes the surrounding landscape.
