Manor House: History and Listed Status
The Klein Kussewitz manor house was first mentioned in official records in 1704. This date marks the first written record, not necessarily the time when the building was constructed. In a municipal planning document dated January 22, 2024, the house is listed among the three protected historic properties in Klein Kussewitz. The early mention and the later documented protected status are two distinct historical reference points: one establishes a date, while the other places the house among the area's listed buildings.
Accommodation in the Manor House
In the municipal planning document dated January 22, 2024, the extensively renovated manor house is described as an event venue and hotel. You should check specific event arrangements separately. The house has six apartments and can accommodate up to 14 guests. Guests can use a fireplace room, a table tennis room and a wellness area in the basement as shared spaces. These figures answer different questions: six is the number of apartments, while up to 14 is the maximum number of guests; the shared spaces complement these capacity details with specific areas for guests to spend time in.
Village Festivals in Klein Kussewitz
Annual village festivals featuring a children's program, music and food take place in Klein Kussewitz. The dates vary, so you should not assume there is a set day on the calendar. If you want a festival to determine your travel dates, check the specific dates for the year in question.
Bentwisch as a Wider Travel Destination
The church is a separate historical landmark in the wider destination of Bentwisch. It is the oldest building in the area. Construction of the present-day church began shortly after 1300, and the Gothic brick building was completed between 1350 and 1370. The structure stands on granite and fieldstone foundations. The term “Gothic brick building” combines two aspects: “Gothic” describes the architectural style, while “brick” identifies the predominant building material; granite and fieldstone refer to the foundations. By contrast, the first official mention is recorded for the Klein Kussewitz manor house, while the church has a stated construction start and completion period.
Bentwisch itself lies about three kilometers northeast of the university city and Hanseatic city of Rostock in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, at the intersection of the A19 motorway and the B105 federal highway. Bentwisch is also close to the Warnow River and the Baltic Sea. The city, road junction and bodies of water therefore provide different geographical reference points for Bentwisch.
The café in the Bentwisch rectory courtyard serves homemade cakes and fragrant coffee. It invites you to enjoy a leisurely afternoon with friends, meet others and have a slice of cake. If you are planning to visit, please check the opening hours in advance.
