Tips from the Community
A truly outstanding estate with a huge gatehouse and numerous outbuildings. The manor house itself resembles a castle. I stumbled upon a magnificent wedding as I pushed my bike through the gate entrance. Weddings probably happen here often. https://www.gutpronstorf.de/geschichte/

The Marienkirche stands directly on the market square and is an imposing structure. The church was built in the 12th century and originally belonged to a collegiate church with many other monastic buildings. The church has a beautifully landscaped cemetery, through which you reach the lakeside promenade of the Großer Segeberger See.

The church was built of red brick between 1871 and 1872 and consecrated in 1873. The east wall of old burial vaults, which was not destroyed, serves as the foundation wall for the east wall of the current church. The east wall opens through a chancel arch into the adjoining chancel. Map » on the map

The mighty trunks of the old oaks are truly impressive. It's just a shame that many of them, which have survived for centuries, are now being wiped out by disease and insect infestation.

Built in 1583, the Seedorf gatehouse is one of the most important Renaissance buildings in Schleswig-Holstein. The moats, ramparts and loopholes that still exist today reveal its former function as a well-protected castle complex. The former prison cells and torture chamber now house museum rooms, and concerts are held in the Knights' Hall. There are also regular guided tours of the museum. The newly designed exhibition focuses primarily on estate life in Seedorf and the stories of the owners' families. In addition to exhibits, the exhibition includes text panels created by a project group from Christian-Albrechts University. Estates of this period usually had a stately manor house, which in some places was also called a castle because of its magnificent architectural style. The lords of the manor lived in the manor house with their families. Behind the manor house there was an elaborate park or garden. In front of the manor house was the forecourt, which was surrounded by numerous stables and farm buildings. There were also apartments for the staff, a bakery, saddlery, etc., unless these were relocated to side farms. The front end was a gatehouse, which was intended to demonstrate the grandeur of the estate and protect it from intruders. The access roads to the gatehouse were planted with avenues. This made the estate's claim to power over the region visible from afar. https://www.holsteinischeschweiz.de/poi/seedorfer-torhaus
