Löwenbruch Manor

Uninhabited

The manor house, also a listed building, was built around (or rather before) 1800 by the von Gröben family, probably the younger brother of the Kurmärkische Chamber President Ernst Ludwig von der Gröben. Already in 1805, it passed to the von dem Knesebeck family, who owned it until 1945. At the beginning of the 21st century, the house stands empty and is owned by the city of Ludwigsfelde. The manor house is set back somewhat from the former village street/federal highway 101 behind a meadow, in the middle of which stands a mill wheel plinth. The portal area of the house is three-story, flanked on both sides by a two-story section. To the right follows an equally two-story side wing. Its front faces the street. On both sides of the central window of the third floor in the portal area, an ornamental family crest is affixed to the light grey plastered exterior wall.

In this house, Theodor Fontane conducted conversations during his research in the Mark and subsequently dedicated the chapter Löwenbruch to the village in his "Wanderungen durch die Mark Brandenburg" (Walks through the Mark Brandenburg).
