Gut Gülzow, Manor house in Gülzow, Germany

Gut Gülzow is a listed manor estate at the northern edge of Gülzow in the Herzogtum Lauenburg district of Schleswig-Holstein. The estate building stands on the street Auf dem Gut, reached via Schloßstraße and the lane Gut Gülzow. Among the protected parts are the castle site, the manor garden with its walls, gateways, moats and ponds, two brick arch bridges over the Linau, a hunting pavilion by the Gülzow forest, a former brewhouse and the Rendantenhaus. Much of the estate is visibly dilapidated.

For centuries Gut Gülzow belonged to the noble Schack family; the Danish field marshal Hans Schack lived there for some years. Around 1654 Bonaventura III von Bodeck acquired the estate, and in 1736 it passed to Georg Ludwig von Kielmansegg. The Kielmanneggs assembled artworks tied to the House of Welf, including a portrait of George III by Johann Zoffany and the coronation chair of George I. Karl von Kielmansegg sold the estate in 1930 to the Hamburg merchant family Fischer, whose architect Kurt Felix Schmidt added new estate buildings in a regional style.

The Kielmansegg family gathered art tied to the House of Hanover at Gülzow, including a portrait of George III by Johann Zoffany and the coronation chair of George I. Alexander von Kielmansegg lent pieces to the 1891 Exhibition of the Royal House of Guelph in London. A series of court ladies painted by Charles Jervas survives in private hands; the fate of the rest is unclear.

The estate lies at the northern edge of Gülzow; Schloßstraße runs along its western side to the village's Hauptstraße, while the internal roads are named "Gut Gülzow" and "Auf dem Gut". The main manor building stands on "Auf dem Gut"; the hunting pavilion is set apart to the north by the Gülzower Wald on "Fasanenhaus". Large parts of the buildings are visibly dilapidated, so view them from the paths.

The Kielmansegg family assembled artworks tied to the House of Hanover at Gülzow, including a portrait of George III by Johann Zoffany and the coronation chair of George I. Alexander von Kielmansegg lent several pieces to the 1891 Exhibition of the Royal House of Guelph in London's New Gallery. The chair later reached Hamburg and the art trade; a series of queen's ladies-in-waiting painted by Charles Jervas remains in private hands.
