Burg Trechow stands in Bernitt (Landkreis Rostock), in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Burg Trechow is today a manor house dating from the early nineteenth century, raised on the foundations of a medieval moated stronghold beside the Trechow lake. The present building, in a classical style with traces of late Renaissance detailing kept from the earlier structure, replaced a sixteenth century fieldstone building that had itself succeeded a twelfth century fortress. It presents a two storey hip roofed block with a mezzanine level lit by round arched windows and a prominent central projection. Ownership passed through several noble families over the centuries, followed by a wide range of uses during the twentieth century, before returning to private hands in the early 2000s.
