The striking neo-Gothic manor house in Pinnow was built between 1862 and 1869, commissioned by Friedrich von Klinggräff (1825–1887). Constructed incorporating an older tenant farmer's house, it is considered one of the most original manor houses in Mecklenburg (a brick building in a square layout with an inner courtyard, towers, wooden galleries, and rich furnishings). Friedrich von Klinggräff, a Mecklenburg landowner, parliamentarian (a member of parliament in the 1848 Revolution), and founder of the Kösener Senioren-Convents-Verband (KSCV), was a devout Lutheran and patriot. He had the house built as a "truly German, simple, pious house" intended to educate the youth. The architects were initially Conrad Wilhelm Hase and Carl Schäfer, and later Heinrich Wiethase. After 1945, the expropriated house served as living quarters, the administration of an agricultural production cooperative (LPG), a post office, and the town hall. It fell into severe disrepair, but from 2012 onwards it was renovated in accordance with historic preservation standards by private owners.

The estate comprises, in addition to the main castle, other buildings including a coach house (with 29 rooms in a Spanish country house style, extended in 2003), a residence, a garage, and a warehouse. The steward's house – typically the residence of the estate manager on historic properties – was located in building number 37.

The castle was built between 1852 and 1854 in the Tudor style, based on designs by the architect Friedrich Hitzig, and originally served as a manor house for the noble von Heyden family. The family's coat of arms is displayed above the entrance.

It was built between 1862 and 1869 on behalf of the von Klinggräff family. The building is a brick structure, laid out in a square, with a small courtyard at its center. The courtyard front of the manor house, which features numerous extensions, wooden galleries, and decorative elements, features a tower-like central section with a wooden porch. The estate was owned by the von Aschersleben family in 1612, by Reimar Ernst von Voß in 1668, and by the von Klinggräff family from around 1700 until 1945. After expropriation, the manor house served as residential property, the community, as a post office, and the headquarters of the LPG administration. In the 1970s, it began to be gradually vacated, and by the 1980s it had stood empty. In 1996, the "Arbeitskreis Denkmalpflege e. V." (Working Group for the Preservation of Historical Monuments) took over. The dilapidated building was leased on a long-term lease and began documentation, cleanup, and preservation work, but these efforts stalled. The manor house is surrounded by a landscaped park, laid out in the 19th century, with a magnificent tree population. A barn and a few outbuildings remain from the former large farmyard. In 2012, new owners were found for the dilapidated manor house. Since then, it has been renovated in accordance with historic preservation regulations.

The single-story Groß Plasten manor house was built in 1751 as a stucco building with a mansard roof in the Baroque style. In the mid-19th century, the von Michael family, who owned the approximately 574-hectare estate before the Great Depression until 1945, added a two-story transverse building with a lakeside terrace. The renovations, carried out from 1891 to 1893, were overseen by Privy Councilor Georg Daniel. Today, the site houses the Groß Plasten Castle Hotel.

Bredenfelde Castle was built between 1853 and 1855. It was built for the landowner Ernst Heinrich von Heyden according to plans by Friedrich Hitzig.
