Schloss Philippshof

Putlitz, Germany, Germany

---

Schloss Philippshof is a historic manor estate located in Putlitz, Brandenburg, Germany.

The property was originally established in the second half of the 16th century by the noble Gans zu Putlitz family, one of the most influential aristocratic families in the Prignitz region, and remained in their possession until the end of World War II. The present manor house was rebuilt in 1895 and features a distinctive blend of Nordic Renaissance and Romantic architectural styles. 

After 1945, the estate was expropriated during land reforms and later used as a school for several decades. Today, Schloss Philippshof is recognized as an architectural heritage site that reflects the region’s aristocratic and agricultural history. Although it is not among Brandenburg’s largest castles, it remains an important historical landmark connected to the long legacy of the Gans zu Putlitz family and the cultural heritage of Putlitz.
