The well-maintained grounds are part of the "Nordsaat Agrar GmbH" estate. The farm manager lives in the attractive building. Unique to all of Rügen: it features a moat with a circular rampart. No wonder, given that the current manor house was built in the 17th century on the foundations of a 15th-century castle. The property has had a typical history, including expropriation by the Soviet Army, nationalization during the GDR era, and reacquisition by Nordsaat in 1991.

The present manor house was built in the 17th century on the foundations of a 15th century castle. It is surrounded by a ring wall and outer ditch, which dates from the time of the castle, which is unique on Rügen.

Arguably the oldest family seat on Rügen is located in Granskevitz, near the church village of Trent. The ancestral seat of the von Platen family is said to have been built here as early as 1170. Today, it is considered one of the earliest ancestral seats of Rügen's noble families.

Presumably built as a castle, the complex is surrounded by a rectangular rampart with a surrounding moat. The rampart and moat were provided with a drawbridge on their south side.
