Two small gatehouses to the right and left of the road marked the eastern entrance to the village; one formerly contained mainly a sheepfold, the other the shepherd's dwelling.

Shortly after his accession to the throne, Frederick William III commissioned the architect David Gilly to rebuild Paretz as a model Prussian village. The new village consisted of approximately ten farms, each largely of a uniform design. In addition to a number of buildings with specific functions, he also had two small gatehouses built to the right and left of the access road, marking the eastern entrance to the village. One primarily contained a sheepfold, the other the shepherd's dwelling.
