Gut Siblin, Estate in Ahrensbök, Ostholstein, Germany

Gut Siblin is a farm estate of about three and a half hectares in the municipality of Ahrensbök, Ostholstein. At its centre stands a nine-axle, one-and-a-half-storey manor house, surrounded by renovated historic buildings now let as permanent homes and holiday flats. Wheat, barley, oats and rapeseed grow on the estate fields, and a small Christmas tree and fir-green production is sold at the farm entrance on Landesstraße 184.

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 village around the estate was recorded around 1304 as Cetelin, later Sebelin, and its name traces to the Slavic settler Sedla, from "sedlo" for a seat or dwelling. The estate itself appears in a 1295 charter as property of Count Adolf VI of Holstein-Schauenburg. Christmas trees and fir greenery from the farm are sold at the entrance on Landesstraße 184.

Gut Siblin lies on Landesstraße 184, about 10 km south of Eutin and 3 km north of Ahrensbök. The farm sells Christmas trees and fir greenery at the entrance on the L184; timber is available on request. Several historic buildings were renovated between 1990 and 2020 and are let as holiday flats and houses with garden access.

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.
