Remains of a late medieval motte-and-bailey castle, consisting of two motte-and-bailey castles situated in a marshy pond. Villages founded by immigrant settlers in the Middle Ages usually included a small castle complex. These were built by members of the lower nobility, who, as locators, led a group of immigrants. The actual castle consisted of a ring ditch surrounding a small hill. In Klein Plasten, the moat even encloses two low hills. The settlement, initially consisting of only a few farmsteads, bordered the motte-and-bailey castle. From this settlement, the present-day village of Klein Plasten developed.

Today, the tower stands as a relic of the estate's heyday. It is considered a local historical monument in the lake-rich landscape. It likely served to supply water to the estate and surrounding buildings, typical of 19th-century rural complexes. A precise construction date is not documented in the available sources.

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.

Former workshop as part of the estate; typical for craft use in manor houses of the 18th/19th centuries. No detailed construction years are known, but it is in the context of the baroque manor tradition.

The coach house in Groß Plasten is now an integral part of the hotel and is used for accommodation or events.

The inn is a single-story brick building with a hipped roof, a central projecting bay, and light-colored horizontal bands all around. Half-rosette arches are located above the gable and projecting bay windows.

The landscape park of Varchentin Castle was laid out in 1838 by the Prussian garden architect Peter Joseph Lenné. The park extends to the lake and includes an artificial canal connecting the Great and Little Varchentin Lakes, which, however, has dried up due to a lowered groundwater level.

The building was constructed around 1250, without a tower, using brick. The medieval roof structure over the nave has not survived, and instead there is an unusual early modern construction consisting of two unconnected substructures, built in 1665 and 1695, which reused usable timbers from the medieval predecessor roof structure.
