Rensow Estate Park
.
. . the park in Rensow is over three hundred years old. The origins of the park lie in the former Wendish fortifications from the 9th century, which formed the core of the later Rensow estate. The park was initially designed as a baroque park to the south of the manor house and was transformed into an English-style landscape park in the 19th century. The structure of this park is still recognizable. The trees typical of a 19th century park such as Douglas fir, sycamore maple, American red oak, copper beech and hornbeam can still be found today, as well as trees from the Baroque period such as the remains of an old lime tree, a beech tree over 300 years old and an oak tree that is perhaps 600 years old. On the northern border of the park is the estate's cemetery. Small bodies of water and the original weir system in the form of a closed moat can be seen in parts, but only the so-called "Börnung" in the north-west has been preserved as part of the old moat. The manor house, which was built around 1690 on older, medieval cellars, still stands in the middle. This forms the core of the old estate complex. Further future measures are not aimed at reconstructing the park, but primarily at making the underlying plans recognizable. The park in Rensow is open to the public and has a beautiful circular path. A map is available on site at the manor house.
Rensow Estate Park in Prebberede - three centuries of history
The Rensow Estate Park in Prebberede is one of the oldest parks in the hinterland of the Mecklenburg Baltic coast. Its roots go back to the 9th century, when a Wendish fortification was built on this site, which later formed the core of the Rensow estate. The manor house itself was built around 1690 on medieval cellars and is still the focal point of the complex today.
From baroque garden to English landscape parkOriginally laid out as a baroque garden to the south of the manor house, the park was transformed into an English-style landscape park in the 19th century - a development that was also typical of other manor gardens in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Both levels of design can still be seen today. The old tree population is remarkable: Douglas firs, sycamore maples and American red oaks from the 19th century stand alongside a 300-year-old beech and an estimated 600-year-old oak from the Baroque period.
Wall moat, Börnung and historical traces in the park
A careful stroll through the park reveals further historical layers: Remains of the old moat of the former fortifications are still visible in places, and the so-called "Börnung" in the north-west has been preserved as a surviving part of this complex. The estate cemetery is also located on the northern boundary of the park. The park is open to the public and has an easily accessible circular path. A map is available directly from the manor house.
