The manor house dominates the village's single-family residential area. It is an extremely solidly constructed three-winged structure, built in 1698/98 by Joachim von Parsenow on much older foundations.

Very well designed rest area with benches and a table. The roof provides shade or, if necessary, protection from the rain. Very useful and the right place for a rest. Greatly done!

The coachman's house was built in 1906 after the old house burned down. It served as accommodation for the estate's employees (coachman, groom). The stable for the riding horses was housed in the old house itself, but in the new one it was moved to the attic. The basement housed an ice cellar and various storage rooms. After 1932 it was the settlement house for gardener Hinze, who ran his own gardening business in the estate's gardens. Demolished in 2006 - the only remaining building is the ice cellar, now a bat quarters
