history

prehistory

A hanging vessel from the Havelland culture found on Hasselberg in the Museum of Prehistory and Early History

In the 19th century, parts of a Young Bronze Age urn grave field with nine graves were discovered on the Black Mountain to the west of the village . Spiral plate brooches , spiral rings, finger rings and arm rings were found in these graves . Graves from the Younger Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age were discovered on the Mühlenberg . On the Hasselberg on the border with the municipality of Beetzseeheide, one of the largest urn grave cemeteries in the Elbe-Havel area from the later Roman imperial era was secured until the beginning of the migration period . Mostly, bowl-shaped urns without additions were found. The finds were dated between the 3rd and 5th centuries. In addition to these urn graves, other graves from the Stone Age were secured on Hasselberg , which were assigned to the Havelländische culture . There are also settlement finds from prehistoric times.

In his work Germania , Tacitus describes the area east of the Elbe up to the Oder as a settlement area of ​​the Suebian tribe of the Semnones . Apart from a few remaining groups, the Semnones left their old settlement area on the Havel in the direction of the Rhine before or at the latest during the time of the migration of peoples from the 3rd or 4th century . From the 6th century onwards, Slavic tribes came from the east to the area that had been largely empty of settlement for around one hundred and fifty years after the Germans had emigrated. Remnants of the Germanic population went into the Slavic majority population.

middle Ages

The first written mention of Radeweges as "Radenwede" comes from the year 1335. Margrave Ludwig I obligated several villages along the Beetzsee in the document to help in addition to Radewege, for example, the places Butzow and Lünow with the maintenance of dams and paths. In 1373, citizens of the old town of Brandenburg were listed as owners of several Hufen . The Bishop of Brandenburg also had possessions in the village .

According to Charles IV's land book from 1375, there was 42.5 Hufen of land in Radewege  . In addition, there are said to have been three hooves for the parish and other Schulzenland. There was a jug and a taxable fisherman lived. The parish of Radeweges was mentioned several times on the one hand as the mother church and on the other hand as a subsidiary church of Brielows. In 1409 Radewege came to the old town after Elector Jobst had ceded the village to it. Like Brielow, Radewege also remained in municipal ownership until the 19th century. In addition to the city, Johann von Quitzow and the cathedral chapter also owned properties in Radewege.

In 1413 Radewege was attacked and devastated by robber knights from the Archdiocese of Magdeburg , but settled again a short time later. In a comparison between the cities of Brandenburg in 1423 it was determined, among other things, that the old town council had to pay an embankment fee, i.e. the cost of maintenance, for the Hufen Radeweges.

Modern times

Wine was grown between the villages of Brielow and Radewege from 1545 at the latest . In that year the Elector Joachim I allowed the old town to grow wine on the Radeweg mountain. In this context, the old town council had paid out Brielower Kossaten to create living space for the winegrowers. In a fire in 1607 the village church was damaged and repaired again by 1608. In a record in 1708, 16 hoof farmers, a Kossät, a shepherd and a blacksmith were counted for Radewege. 31 years later, 140 people are said to have lived in the village. Around 1800 the school was in the south-west and a syringe house and a forge in the east of the village. For the years 1813, 1890 and 1901 several major fires are noted for the village.

In 1815 provinces were formed in the Kingdom of Prussia after the Wars of Liberation and the associated political changes. The areas around the city of Brandenburg were incorporated into the new Prussian province of Brandenburg . A year later, the Westhavelland district was founded in Brandenburg , to which Radewege belonged. In the entire area along the Havel and the lakes connected to it, there was an economic boom at the beginning and in the course of the 19th century and with the beginning and advancing industrialization in Prussia. Due to the rich clay deposits in the area and the proximity of the lake, several brickworks were built around Radewege . The Havel enabled transport to industrial centers. The fired clinker was loaded onto barges on site and transported by ship to the cities of Brandenburg, Potsdam and Berlin. A shipload usually consisted of around 40,000 to 50,000 bricks. Clinker production was partially maintained until the middle of the 20th century. Then the clay deposits were exhausted and more modern materials were used. Due to the economic boom through the brick industry, the villages along the Beetzsee grew in a short time, sometimes considerably. In 1852 there were three brickworks in Radewege. In the 19th century the village had two windmills and in 1886 a first dairy was established.

20th and 21st centuries

Radewege grew from the old town center mainly to the east along the banks of the Beetzsee. In 1907 there lived a blacksmith, a master baker, a brickworks owner, two millers and there were two inns. The village had been connected to the German rail network three years earlier. In that year, a branch line of the West Havelland district railways , which has existed since 1901 and connected Brandenburg with Nauen in the northeast, was opened. The stopping point was next to Radewege Radewege brick factory. The railway connection played an important role primarily in freight traffic for the Beetzsee communities, especially for the transport of agricultural and brickwork products. After the decline of rail traffic, the connection was discontinued in 1969 and subsequently dismantled.

In the First World War , 29 residents died or were reported missing. The population continued to grow rapidly in the interwar period. In 1933 there were 607 people in Radewege, and six years later there were already 672 people. In the Second World War , 23 residents died or were reported missing.

In the course of the land reform in the Soviet occupation zone in 1947 and 1948, large agricultural areas over 100 hectares in the village were redistributed among the landless and rural poor. In 1952 an administrative reform took place in the GDR, which was founded in 1949 . The states were dissolved and districts were formed for them. In this context, it was also necessary to restructure the existing circles. The Westhavelland district, to which the towns belonged, was dissolved, and the communities were incorporated into the new Brandenburg (Land) district in the Potsdam district. From 1953, as everywhere in the GDR, the collectivization of the agricultural enterprises, some of which were very small as a result of the land reform, in order to be profitably or effectively managed, in agricultural production cooperatives (LPG).

With the political upheavals of 1989 and 1990 there were again changes. In 1990 the Potsdam district was dissolved and merged into the re-established state of Brandenburg. After reunification, the new district of Potsdam-Mittelmark was founded in 1993, into which the district of Brandenburg was merged. In the run-up to the Brandenburg municipal area reform planned for 2003, Radewege voluntarily merged with Brielow and Marzahne to form the Beetzsee municipality on February 1, 2002 and thus lost its independence. On January 1st, 2008 Marzahne moved to the neighboring town of Havelsee. In the course of the suburbanization around the city of Brandenburg in the years after the reunification, the village recorded some strong influxes. In this context, new settlements with single-family houses were built.

Place name

The origin of the place name Radewege is not fully understood. But it probably comes from the Polish name Radoved , so that it is assumed that Radewege was a place where someone with that name lived. In 1335 Radewege was first mentioned in a document as Radenwede . In the document, the margrave committed the place to the maintenance of dams and paths.

Attractions

In the interior of the aisle church you will find a classic brick ribbed vault and services . The ribbed vault is accompanied by colorfully painted decorations. In addition to a wooden pulpit, an artfully protruding sacrament niche was incorporated. Above this stands a wooden, colored Madonna and Child.
