    The history of the Wulmenau estate begins in the 14th century. It is mentioned as a Marquart von Crumesse, who sold it to a Lübeck councillor. In 1555 it was united with the Trenthorst estate through marriage and from 1594 onwards it was placed under the protection of the Lübeck council as the "Lübsches Gut". In 1660 the Trenthorst and Wulmenau estates were elevated to noble estates and were from then on owned by noble families. At the end of the 19th century they came into the possession of wealthy officials and factory owners. In 1936 the double estate became the private property of the cigarette manufacturer Philipp F. Reemtsma, who brought the estate, which was then heavily in debt, back to prosperity. After the end of the war, parts of the estate were separated or settled. The remaining core parts of the Trenthorst-Wulmenau double estate (approx. 660 ha) were transferred to the Max Planck Society in 1951 and were subsequently used by various state institutions. Since 2008 it has been home to the Thünen Institute, which is part of the business area of the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture.

      On the connecting road from Trenthorst to Ahrensfelde, you drive through two districts of Wulmenau. The highlight described here, "Gut Wulmenau," is closer to Ahrensfelde. About a kilometer further in the direction of Trenthorst is a second district of Wulmenau, which is now mostly referred to as the "Wulmenau Old School," but was previously called the "Wulmenau Central." The wealthy Hamburg merchant and oil manufacturer Friedrich Thörl owned the double estate Trenthorst-Wulmenau from 1910 to 1928. He had Trenthorst and Wulmenau extensively modernized. The farm buildings of the Wulmenau estate that still stand here today were built during his time. On the other side of the road, several well-equipped houses with gardens and fruit trees were built to provide for the farm workers' families.
