Wieck Castle is a former manor house in the Wieck district of the town of Gützkow, built between 1793 and 1797 on the site of a previous building. In 1931, the town of Gützkow purchased the castle, park, and chapel and established a school. It has been used as a high school since 1991.

Construction of a manor house/castle in the Tudor style, but unfortunately this is no longer recognizable due to the demolitions in 1955/60. This type of building is rarely found in Western Pomerania in this size and design. The park with the neo-Gothic chapel as an ensemble, as well as the extensive farmyard in the construction phases 1825-1850 and 1880-1890 are also worth mentioning.

In the further course of the 14th century, the people of Greifswald acquired extensive land holdings north of the Ryck from the Gristower lords, who had run into financial difficulties, so that rebuilding the castle was out of the question for the Gristowers. (Source: Wikipedia)

It was not until 1331 that a contingent of Greifswalders managed to capture the castle and completely destroy it during a renewed feud between the city of Greifswald and Johann von Gristow. However, in the document from 1331 in the Greifswald city archives, a settlement was reached between the parties in court, according to which Greifswald had to pay Johann von Gristow 400 marks as compensation.

During the First War of the Rügen Succession, the Mecklenburg troops of Prince Henry II, with whom Johann von Gristow had allied himself, undertook a campaign against the city of Greifswald from Grimmen and Ekberg Castle. The Mecklenburgers were defeated at Griebenow. The troops of Greifswald and the cities allied with them and recruited knights then tried twice unsuccessfully to conquer Ekberg Castle.

In the late Middle Ages, there was a lowland castle on the prominent hill directly next to the Riene river - the Ekberg Fortress, also known as Ekberg Castle or Ekberg Palace. The builders of Ekberg Castle, the Lords of Gristow, descended from Barnuta, the eldest son of the Prince of Rügen, Jaromar I. The exact date of construction, probably in the second half of the 13th century, of the important sovereign fortification at the time, is not known.

Behrenhoff was called Busdorf until 1804 and had belonged to the von Behr family since the 14th century. On behalf of Carl Felix Georg von Behr, a two-story, late classicist manor house was built in the 1830s to replace the previous baroque manor house. The architect was possibly Friedrich Hitzig. His widow Louise Wilhelmine Gustava von Heyden had a landscape park created in the 1840s based on the plan of Peter Joseph Lenné.[2] Mechthild Countess von Behr, the last noble owner, was granted lifelong usufruct after her husband's death. She was against the National Socialists. Approached by Albrecht Schönherr, from 1936/1937 it offered accommodation on the estate for Confessing Church events. Bible studies and lectures took place during the so-called free periods. In addition to Schönherr, Eberhard Bethge, Günter Jacob, Volkmar Herntrich and Ernst Lohmeyer, among others, gave lectures. It is unclear whether Dietrich Bonhoeffer actually took part in events in Behrenhoff, as stated several times. On May 8, 1945, the mansion burned down. The ruins were later dismantled to produce building materials for new farms. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landschaftspark_Behrenhoff#Schloss_Behrenhoff

The castle was built around 1830 instead of a manor house. In May 1945 the castle burned down. The park is now part of a listed landscape park.
