Abandoned Gentzrode in Germany
Located in Neuruppin, Brandeburg, Germany is the abandoned Gentzrode that was once home to Karl von Diebitsch’s son, Ludwig. The young man wanted a mansion fit for a king complete with luscious gardens and even a family mausoleum.
The renovations were completed around 1877 but all the money he put into the renovation left him and his family bankrupt. Eventually, the Gentzrode was handed to several different owners over the years, including the Nazis. But when their forces left the area, the property was abandoned.
