he Estates House in Rostock was built between 1889 and 1893 by master builder Möckel right next to the stone gate . With its atrium and outside staircase as well as the magnificent ballroom with barrel vault, it is always worth a visit.
Numerous ornaments and turrets adorn the old brick building. The house, built in the style of historicism, initially served as a parliament building for the knights and countryside of Mecklenburg-West Pomerania. After the stands were dissolved, it remained unused for a long time. In the GDR, the building was used by the People's Navy as a clubhouse. Today it houses the Rostock Higher Regional Court.
