This is the former manor house of Wedderstedt. The brick building was constructed in 1893. Its design, and in particular the strict symmetry of the facade, was inspired by the Dutch Renaissance style. The striking color contrasts between the elements used to divide the facade and the brickwork are particularly noticeable. Source: Wikipedia
