history
16th and 17th centuries
Halbe was mentioned for the first time on July 22, 1546 in a feudal letter from the Prince-Elector of Landsberg . This aristocratic family from Brandenburg and Lusatia had their seat in a castle in neighboring Teupitz and from there operated the Christianization of the surrounding area. In 1624 there were 16 Hufnerhöfe , five Kötterhöfe as well as a shepherd and a shepherd. The area was 16 hooves . The Thirty Years' War also claimed considerable casualties in Halbe. In 1652 only two farmers and two kötter lived in the village.
18th century
Halbe had recovered in 1700. The statistics reported from the village and a newly created Vorwerk Halbe, in which there was also a sheep farm. The owner of the Vorwerk was allowed by the Buchholz rulers to keep up to 30 cows, 18 oxen and young cattle. The fields and meadows were evidently former farms that were "mostly still overgrown". There was also a brick barn and a vineyard in the Vorwerk. Three positions in the village were again occupied by “subjects”, plus a shepherd. In 1711 there were three gables (= residential houses) in the village, which may also have been Kötterhöfe. There were also a shepherd, a shepherd, a servant and three pairs of housekeepers. They paid the Landsberg taverns four groschen for each of the 16 hooves. In 1716, the statistics reported only from the village with Vorwerk, plus the brick barn and the vineyard. In 1745 there were again two farms. There were also five Kötter, the brick barn mentioned above and a family house outside the village. In 1749, the district of Briesen, which had been owned by the von Stutterheim family until then , was sold to Joachim Seyfried von Schlieben from the noble family of the von Schlieben on Oderin. Around 1750 Hans Ernst von Schlieben built a mansion in Briesen. In 1771 the number of buildings had increased to six gables. There was a shepherd, while the dues remained the same at four groschen for 16 hooves.
19th century
In 1801 there were six farms, four Büdner, eight grants, a pitcher and a brickyard; there were 19 fireplaces (= households). In 1822 a free school was set up in Briesen , which was financed by a foundation made in 1817 by the poet Wilhelmine von Schlieben . Halbe had belonged to the Teltow district in the province of Brandenburg since 1836 . In 1840 there were 26 houses in Halbe. Around 1850 an incompletely preserved bronze fibula from the 3rd century AD was found in fire . Halbe continued to develop. In 1858 there were 17 farm owners with 20 servants and maids. There were also ten part-time farmers and 28 workers. There were 38 properties. Eleven of them totaled 755 acres and were between 30 and 300 acres in size. 13 more were between five and 30 acres (together 209), 14 were smaller than five acres (together 89 acres). In the meantime, numerous trades had settled in Halbe. There was a master tailor, a cartwright, two master shoemakers, a journeyman bricklayer, a master blacksmith and a victim dealer - but also twelve arms. In 1860 there were two public, 28 residential and 49 farm buildings in Halbe. In 1866, Brand received a train station on the Berlin-Görlitzer Bahn , and in the following years the towns of Halbe and Oderin. In the middle of the 19th century, several brickworks and wood processing companies sprang up in the region, delivering building materials, among other things, to the rapidly growing Berlin via the new railway line .
20th century
In 1900 there were 85 houses in Halbe. Within 35 years the population in Halbe tripled: In 1875 only 426 people lived in the place, in 1910 there were already 1221. In addition, there were up to 800 seasonal workers. During this time, the residents erected a large number of new buildings, including shops in Lindenstrasse, for example the department store owned by Moritz Paul and Karl Richter , the beer wholesaler and mineral water factory owned by Gustav Bährens and the furniture manufacturer Fritz Breitenbach . In 1910 Fritz Paul Jentz , owner of the Metropol-Theater in Berlin, took over the manor Briesen. From 1910 to 1913 the new palace was built in Briesen and the park was laid out by the gardening company Späth from Berlin. With the help of Russian prisoners of war from the First World War , a paved road from Halbe to Teurow was built, which was later renamed Kirchstrasse . After the end of the First World War, excursion traffic also flourished to Halbe; allotments and settlement plots were created. In 1924, the large coach house was built in Briesen with a facade modeled on the Doric temples . The number of buildings rose to 140 houses in 1931. In 1939 there were only two large farms in Halbe that were between 20 and 100 hectares in size. There were also four farms between ten and 20 hectares in size and nine farms between five and ten hectares. A further 68 holdings were only available from 0.5 to five hectares.
1945 in the last year of the Second World War , the Wehrmacht suffered one of their last major defeats in the area of Halbe and Märkisch-Buchholz . An estimated 60,000 people were killed in the battle, known as Kessel von Halbe , towards the end of the war. A large part of them was buried in the Halbe forest cemetery.
In 1945, 47 hectares of state forest were expropriated and divided. Four small farmers received a total of four hectares, 18 farms received 35 hectares and one farm received eight hectares. From 1945 to 1948 the castle was the seat of the Soviet headquarters, from 1948 to 1951 the district party school of the SED and then until 1991 a school. After years of vacancy, the reconstruction of the palace and palace grounds began in 1996. In 1952, Halbe joined the Königs Wusterhausen district in the GDR district of Potsdam . In 1953 a type I LPG was founded, which was re-established in 1957 and converted into a type III in 1959. It had six members and worked 19 hectares of agricultural land. In 1955, the VEB woodworking plant with 101 employees was established as the largest employer in town. The LPG expanded and in 1960 already had 22 members on an area of 79 hectares. There was also an LPG type I with 18 members and 79 hectares, which merged in 1968 with the LPG in Löpten and the LPG Groß Köris to form LPG Löpten-Halbe-Groß Köris. In 1973 the VEB Holzkombinat of the Königs Wusterhausen district was established with the Halbe plant. In addition, there was the Halbe Möbel division and the Halbe sawn timber plant of the VEB Möbelkombinat Neuzera, Zernsdorf plant. The PGH Aufbau, Friseurhandwerk and LPG Löpten with the Halbe division and the Dahmetal Halbe forestry department were created. On January 1, 1974 Teurow was incorporated.
The community has been in the Dahme-Spreewald district in Brandenburg since 1993.
