Niendorf manor house between Wismar and Schwerin on the B106.
The estate had been owned by the von Brandenstein family since 1827. Between 1906 and 1941, Joachim Freiherr von Brandenstein managed Niendorf. He studied law, worked in the domanial administration of the Wittenburg office and worked in the Schwerin State Ministry between 1900 and 1906. From 1906 to 1918, Baron von Brandenstein was a minister at the Prussian court and plenipotentiary for both states of Mecklenburg. In 1924, he became Minister President of Mecklenburg-Schwerin within a German National government and held this office for two years. During the Kapp Putsch, communist farm workers were murdered on the Niendorf estate, as commemorated by the memorial plaque on the manor house. The manor house, which was used for residential purposes after 1945, stood empty for many years before new owners were found in 2021, who are now gradually renovating the manor house. Two buildings have been preserved from the former farmyard, which have been converted into residential buildings and are now inhabited. A garden café is open on Sundays from 2 pm to 5 pm. Otherwise the site is not accessible. However, it can be viewed from the traffic circle.
