The estate with ice cellar, stable and settler's barn houses the International Bat Museum Julianenhof of the NABU Regional Association Strausberg - Märkische Schweiz e.V..
The historic ice cellar can be visited. An exhibition explains the history of ice mining. Today bats spend the winter in the former ice cellar. With a room height of over five metres and a floor area of almost 40 square metres, it is one of the largest in Brandenburg. It used to store about 120 cubic metres of ice, which lasted up to two years thanks to the 1.85 metre thick outer walls with air chambers.
