Schloss Vietgest
Rostock
The estate had been owned by the Oldenburg family since the 15th century, and J. F. Boldt is listed as the owner from 1786 onward.
Between 1792 and 1794, he had the manor house built according to plans by the architect Johann Friedrich Busch. Stones from the demolished east wing of Güstrow Castle are said to have been used for the construction. In 1819, Baron Cornelius von Herzeele acquired the estate at an auction of the entire estate inventory, including livestock.
In 1841, Prince Georg Wilhelm zu Schaumburg-Lippe, whose family owned nearly 7,000 hectares of land in the Güstrow district, purchased the estate and shortly thereafter had several new farm buildings constructed. Following the expropriation of the zu Schaumburg-Lippe family in 1945, the manor house was used as a vacation home by the CDU.
Following the first renovation in 1990, it was operated as a leased hotel until the municipality sold it again. Since 2019, the new host, Miriam Hager, has been running the estate as a cultural center with hotel rooms. For the 2026 Midsummer Remise, a grand ball will take place on Saturday evening in the Baroque Hall. Admission to the ball is not included in the MittsommerRemise ticket. Tickets for the Midsummer Night Ball are available here.
