Ackerfelde is an inhabited part of the municipality of Niemerlang , a district of the town of Wittstock / Dosse in the Ostprignitz-Ruppin district (Brandenburg). The "colony" was established between 1804 and 1817 and before 1846 became an independent municipality. As early as 1928 it lost its independence and was incorporated into Niemerlang.

location

Ackerfelde is about 1.8 km south of the center of Niemerlang, about 6 km south of Freyenstein and about 12 km as the crow flies from the center of Wittstock / Dosse. According to the topographic map 1: 25,000 No. 2740 Freyenstein, the northwestern exit of the town is 91.8  m above sea level. NHN . Ackerfelde can be reached via a connecting road that leads from Tetschendorf to Ellershagen or Rapshagen . Another narrow road branches off to Wernickow in the village. The former field mark or district is united with Niemerlang and Tetschendorf. Corridor 5 of the Niemerlang district corresponds to the earlier district of Ackerfelde.

history

The colony appears for the first time in the list of localities from 1817 as Allmannskniep. In contrast, the name cannot yet be found in the directory of the Pritzwalkischer Kreis from 1801. The exact year of foundation has not (yet) been determined. The name is a joke or nickname and means everyone is in distress. The Allmannskiep settlement was created before 1817 on the desert Hellort field; it is referred to in the local register as a colony of Halenbeck. The desert Feldmark Hellort then belonged to the monastery of the Holy Grave. It must be said that there is no documentary evidence of a medieval village in Hellort. It could also have been a field name. In the colony 21 Kätner had been set, correspondingly there were 21 houses in the place. The number of inhabitants could not be determined because the settlement as a colony of Halenbeck was included in the population of Halenbeck. In 1819, at the request of the community and with the support of Pastor Litzmann in Halenbeck, the name was changed to Ackerfelde. In 1860 there were already 25 residential buildings, as well as a public building and 28 farm buildings. In 1900 there were already 25 houses. In 1907, the social structure was predominantly dominated by agriculture, with 13 farmers including the community leader and only one innkeeper. They had farm sizes of 33 to 8 hectares. After the Second World War, there were therefore no expropriations. In 1958 LPG Type I "Ernst Thälmann" was founded; it had ten members and 56 hectares of agricultural land. In 1974 the LPG in Ackerfelde was connected to the LPG Type III "Upward" in Niemerlang-Tetschendorf.

Local and political affiliation

The "colony" was created between 1804 and 1817 on the desert field of Hellort . It is uncertain whether it was actually the field mark of a medieval village that fell into desolation at an early age or just a field name (cf. historical local dictionary). At that time, the area belonged to the Heiligengrabe Abbey and was part of the historical Prignitz landscape, one of the four "provinces" of the Mittelmark. Presumably, the colony was founded after 1811, after the monastery had lost the manorial power over all of its villages. Within the Prignitz, the place belonged to the Pritzwalkischer Kreis . In 1817 the old Prignitz districts were dissolved and the historical landscape was divided into two new districts; the Westprignitz and the Ostprignitz ; Ackerfelde came to the Ostprignitz district. In the district reform of 1952 in the former GDR, the Ostprignitz district was dissolved and the Wittstock district re-created. This district was renamed the Wittstock district in 1990 . In 1993 the (rural) district of Wittstock was merged with the (rural) districts of Kyritz and Neuruppin to form the district of Ostprignitz-Ruppin.

The "colony" Ackerfelde originally belonged to the village of Halenbeck (today a part of the municipality of Halenbeck-Rohlsdorf ). Before 1846 it became an independent municipality. In 1928 it lost its independence and was incorporated into the Niemerlang community. In 1992 Niemerlang merged with 16 other municipalities and the city of Freyenstein to form the administrative association Amt Wittstock-Land . In 2003 the Wittstock-Land office was dissolved and the municipalities belonging to the office were incorporated into the city of Wittstock / Dosse. Since then, Ackerfelde has been an inhabited part of the municipality without its own local authority.
