Groß Luckow, Deutschland
Ancestral seat of the von Raven family built in 1912 in the neo-baroque style. The house with its landscape park was bought back by the family in 1995. Today, it offers 5 stately guest rooms for rent and event locations on the ground floor in the hinterland of the Baltic Sea.
The well-tended manor is at the head of a newly planted avenue that had been lost during the GDR era.
Some of the former estate’s well-preserved farm buildings (wash house, barns and stables) are much older than the hall itself and are also listed as protected monuments.
In sight distance of the manor house is the Gothic stone church, built on a hill on the village green at the end of the 13th century, with beautiful murals.
Groß Luckow first made an appearance in official documents in 1375 as ‘locow major’. Since then it has been property of the von Ravens until the end of World War II. The von Ravens were typical Prussian nobility providing numerous military officials and officers for the king. Members of the family were also accepted into the Mecklenburg knighthood from 1757.
A visit to Groß Luckow gives an idea of the rich history of the estate.
The village lies on the border to Brandenburg in the famous hilly, undulating moraine landscape.
The nearby lake Demenzsee invites you to linger in the summer months.
