Schloss Grube is a historic manor house located in the village of Grube, part of the town of Bad Wilsnack in Brandenburg, Germany. It is the last fully preserved estate house of the von Quitzow family, constructed between 1740 and 1742 on the remnants of an earlier structure. The manor is a classic Baroque building, featuring a symmetrical façade and original architectural elements like enfilades. Significant renovations occurred in 1889 under the Gans Edlen Herren zu Putlitz family, which included changes to the roof and interior layout. Further modifications were made in the 1920s by the Kamlah family, who deepened the eastern cellar areas and expanded the salon. After World War II, the estate was expropriated and repurposed for various uses during the DDR era, including housing a school, mayor's office, and youth club. In 1977, Schloss Grube was designated a historical monument. Restoration efforts began in 2008, leading to the reopening of the manor for cultural events and gastronomy in 2009. A small hotel was established in 2011. The restoration work was recognized with the Brandenburg Monument Preservation Award in 2010, highlighting the dedication to preserving this architectural heritage.
