Top 3 Castles around Tützpatz

The striking neo-Gothic manor house in Pinnow was built between 1862 and 1869, commissioned by Friedrich von Klinggräff (1825–1887). Constructed incorporating an older tenant farmer's house, it is considered one of the most original manor houses in Mecklenburg (a brick building in a square layout with an inner courtyard, towers, wooden galleries, and rich furnishings). Friedrich von Klinggräff, a Mecklenburg landowner, parliamentarian (a member of parliament in the 1848 Revolution), and founder of the Kösener Senioren-Convents-Verband (KSCV), was a devout Lutheran and patriot. He had the house built as a "truly German, simple, pious house" intended to educate the youth. The architects were initially Conrad Wilhelm Hase and Carl Schäfer, and later Heinrich Wiethase. After 1945, the expropriated house served as living quarters, the administration of an agricultural production cooperative (LPG), a post office, and the town hall. It fell into severe disrepair, but from 2012 onwards it was renovated in accordance with historic preservation standards by private owners.

Wolde Castle was a medieval castle near Wolde. It was built around the late 14th century and was the seat of the nobleman Bernd II von Maltzan, also known as "The Evil Bernd," in the 15th century. Bernd von Maltzan (* before 1474; † 1525 in Wolde) was a Pomeranian robber baron from the noble Maltzan family. He came into conflict with Duke Bogislaw X of Pomerania after he disregarded a ruling accusing him of abusing his office in the Loitz bailiwick. The duke then besieged the castle with troops from Greifswald, Stralsund, Anklam, and Demmin. After an explosion in the gunpowder stores, the castle was captured and destroyed on August 29, 1491. The Maltzans subsequently lost Wolde, which fell to the von Preen family. Later, in the 18th and early 19th centuries, the property temporarily returned to the Maltzan family. Today, the castle complex is an archaeological site with ramparts and a moat. A neo-Romanesque church has stood on the castle hill since 1859/60, which now remains as a ruin.

Wolde Church is located on the castle hill. It was built in 1859/1860 in the Neo-Romanesque style after the original castle complex was destroyed in the late 14th century.

It was built between 1862 and 1869 on behalf of the von Klinggräff family. The building is a brick structure, laid out in a square, with a small courtyard at its center. The courtyard front of the manor house, which features numerous extensions, wooden galleries, and decorative elements, features a tower-like central section with a wooden porch. The estate was owned by the von Aschersleben family in 1612, by Reimar Ernst von Voß in 1668, and by the von Klinggräff family from around 1700 until 1945. After expropriation, the manor house served as residential property, the community, as a post office, and the headquarters of the LPG administration. In the 1970s, it began to be gradually vacated, and by the 1980s it had stood empty. In 1996, the "Arbeitskreis Denkmalpflege e. V." (Working Group for the Preservation of Historical Monuments) took over. The dilapidated building was leased on a long-term lease and began documentation, cleanup, and preservation work, but these efforts stalled. The manor house is surrounded by a landscaped park, laid out in the 19th century, with a magnificent tree population. A barn and a few outbuildings remain from the former large farmyard. In 2012, new owners were found for the dilapidated manor house. Since then, it has been renovated in accordance with historic preservation regulations.

Here on the lake is the mighty Schlossberg tower hill. Once a Slavic rampart, a German motte was built here in the 12th/13th century. According to legend, the castle was once inhabited by robber barons who had connections to the knights of Penzlin Castle.

The once mighty, impregnable Wolde fortress used to stand here! The evil Bernd von Maltzahn, who lived here, was known and notorious as a robber baron. He committed several serious crimes, so that Bogislaw X. besieged the castle with the help of troops from Greifswald, Stralsund, Anklam and Demmin. After the defenders' gunpowder supplies exploded and damaged the fortifications, the castle was conquered and destroyed on August 29, 1491. Today, only a few remains of the old castle's walls remain. They are located just next to the rebuilt village church on the plateau...
