The oldest parts of Kletkamp Estate are known to be the oldest manor house in Schleswig-Holstein. It has been the ancestral seat of the Counts of Brockdorff since 1612, but an earlier building dates back to the 13th century. Today, the estate offers several vacation apartments. The view of the Kletkamp Lakes is also wonderful.
