The Manor Estate

The Klein-Glien manor estate (Rittergut) can be traced back to the 14th century. During the Thirty Years’ War it was devastated in 1640 and, according to an inscription, rebuilt in 1771. After several changes of ownership, the estate passed to the von Tschirschky family, who lived there until 1945.

In the course of the land reform, the noble family was expropriated. The manor house then came to house living quarters, a Konsum (state-run cooperative shop), the mayor’s office, and a daycare centre.

In the 1990s it was home to, among other things, a furniture store, the Landwehrstuben restaurant serving cuisine typical of the Fläming, and a goose and duck fattening operation. Following renovation in the early 2000s, various tenants came and went, along with a period of vacancy, before Coconat took over the ensemble in 2017.

Spring Subbotnik at Coconat 🌱

Spring is coming—and with it our community Subbotnik at Coconat.

We warmly invite everyone to join us for a few days of hands-on work as we prepare the Coconat grounds for the new season. As a thank you, all helpers receive free accommodation and meals during their stay—and families are very welcome to join and can stay for free as well.

📅 March 28–31
🛏 Stay possible: March 27 – April 1
🕙 Working hours: daily 10:00–16:00

Depending on how many people join, we’ll take care of different tasks around the property and buildings. If many people come (10+ helpers), we’ll also organize garden and outdoor projects to get everything ready for spring.

After the workday, there will be plenty of time to enjoy what makes Coconat special: campfires, sauna, walks in nature, and shared meals together.

If you’d like to spend a few days outdoors, meet new people, and be part of the Coconat community while helping us get ready for the season, we’d love to hear from you.
