History

From the brickworks to the 4-star Seehotel Frankenhorst

From 1770 to 1922, there were several brickworks and lime kilns on the site of today's Hotel Frankenhorst, whose raw materials - clay, meadow lime and peat - were available in sufficient quantities as fuel. Many of Schwerin's prestigious buildings were constructed from the building materials produced here.

As early as the beginning of the 1920s, the "Seelust" restaurant was located on the grounds of the hotel. This was located in the building that is now known as House 2 or "Haus am See" in the Seehotel Frankenhorst. On the night of 17 to 18 October 1935, there was a fire in the roof of the "Seelust" restaurant. No one was injured, but the attic floor was completely burnt out. The storey was rebuilt and the pub remained in operation for many years, but like many other establishments, it was used for other purposes during the Second World War.

In 1921, the poet Hans Franck bought the 122,000 square metre property on Schwerin's Ziegelaußensee - the Frankenhorst, where he lived for more than 40 years. He gave the estate its name. After his death, the Frankenhorst became a guest house for the then district of Schwerin. It was home to high-ranking guests of the district, as well as party veterans and other personalities. Of course, Erich Honecker also knew the best place to stay and stayed at the Frankenhorst during the 1987 Farmers' Congress.

After German reunification, the guest house was used for tourism and catering and is now home to the 4-star Seehotel Frankenhorst.

In 2004, the site including the hotel was classified as a nature experience area. This added another highlight to the region. The hotel's beautiful location on the Ziegelaußensee lake, which is now in the middle of a nature reserve and a European bird sanctuary, makes the Seehotel Frankenhorst a popular excursion and holiday destination for guests from Schwerin, Germany and abroad.
