Manor House Kemnitzerhagen
In 1386, Kemnitzerhagen is mentioned in a document as "Kemesitserhagen". The village was probably given to the Eldena Monastery during the 13th century by the Knights of Gützkow, a family of the lower aristocracy from Wieck near Gützkow.
After the secularisation of the monastery in 1535, the land came into possession of the Pomeranian dukes and was managed and leased by the Eldena administration. In 1634 Bogislaw XIV, Duke of Pomerania, gave the village to the Royal University of Greifswald in whose ownership it remained.
Kemnitzerhagen consisted of two parts: the village and the farm. The latter was managed as an estate in 1865 and was an outlying farm with 19 farm buildings, a windmill and a factory. The manor house was built in its present form at the beginning of the 19th century, the entrance area with the columned portico at the end of the 19th century. During the GDR era, the former classicist courtyard façade was "cleaned" of all ornamentation and the portico also disappeared. The manor house has been inhabited to this day. In recent years it has been extensively renovated.
