Alt-Seegaard

Alt-Seegaard is an Outbound lowland castle in Husbyholz in Schleswig-Flensburg , the country Schleswig-Holstein .

background

The fortified Edelhof was at Seegaard ( location ) on the north side of the Winderatter lake . The word Ga (a) rd indicates a manor house in fishing . Alt-Seegaard had been in episcopal ownership since the 13th century . The Landsasse von Alt-Seegaard paid the bishop $ 2 and 8 ßl in 1581. for the year. In 1616 Duke Ulrich donated the farm to Captain N. Lohden. Later Lorenz Tuxen was the owner of the farm, who discovered an attack by the Swedes on Copenhagen and passed on the news about it. King Friedrich III. rewarded him for this.

In 1784, the Flensburg captain and businessman Hans Christopher Ohlsen (1731–1791) acquired the “Alt-Seegard” farm. At the age of twenty, his son of the same name took over the farm. He built a mill to drain the meadows. He is said to have made fertilizers from bone meal. Ohlsen is said to have made a fortune with a brandy distillery . Ohlsen married Sophie Friedericke Birgitte Peträus in 1805. For his fourth son Nicolai Jacob Ohlsen (1810-1854), Ohlsen bought a farm on the southwestern outskirts of Flensburg in 1845 , which he named Sophienhof after his wife .

Today there are several farms on Seegaarder Weg, including Landhaus Seegaard, Resthof Seegaardfeld and Hof Neuseegaard. According to the local researcher Jakob Röschmann, the Schlossplatz should be located pretty much directly on the north bank of the Winderatter See ( location ). Röschmann found out around 1960 through a report by the old farmer Schoof that he had observed a step-like stone setting there in the past. Röschmann found that on the site of today's Seegaard farm no fortifications can be seen.

Legends from Schlossplatz

Legends from Schlossplatz report that it is haunted there .

The haunted male from Alt-Seegaard

According to legend, sheep would disappear in the area and a small, taciturn man with a white hat and skirt would wander around there. - Two sheep are said to have run away from a farmer from Markerup. In his search he entered the palace square, where the little man appeared to him. The farmer asked the male where his sheep had gone, but the male turned and suddenly disappeared before the farmer's eyes. The sheep stayed away.

The haunted table society of Alt-Seegaard

At times, a group of gentlemen would sit at a long table at Schlossplatz. These ghostly gentlemen wore black clothes. But they too would obviously disappear if they noticed someone. It is said that once a little girl discovered the gentlemen, but they suddenly disappeared without a trace, as they noticed. But a silver cup was forgotten by them and was lying on the ground.

The saga obviously bears a resemblance to the Flensburg saga of the ghost meal , which is known throughout Germany and which was recorded by the Brothers Grimm and published in their book Deutsche Sagen in 1816 . Said legend reports that King Friedrich Friedrich III. once invited to a public meeting in Flensburg. Since King Friedrich was one of the Danish kings who temporarily lived in Duburg , the meeting mentioned in the introduction could have taken place there. The actual plot of the saga tells of a nobleman who traveled to the meeting and stayed in a room of an inn, where at night a haunted dinner party appeared to him. In this legend, too, the ghosts leave silver dishes behind.

Neighboring castles

There were other castles around Alt-Seegaard, some of which are associated with Alt-Seegaard, but should not be confused with it.

  • Nedderby Castle was north of Husby village, south of Gremmerup.
  • An Edelhof called Mögstedt was north of Gremmerup near Süderholz in the municipality of Ringsberg.
  • A possible castle square is suspected near Gosewatt between Husbyholz and Markerup ( Lage ). This farm, presumably called Bisgaard, could originally have been called "Biscopsgaard", so that like Alt-Seegaard it was owned by the bishop. Nowadays there are no more traces of the “ Sagenburg ” in the area.
  • The tower hill castle Böge-Schloss was west of the Winderatter See at the neighboring Ausacker .
  • A castle location could also have been northeast of Winderatter See near neighboring Hardesby. This palace square is said to be located east of Seegaard on the edge of a meadow ( location ). This “Sagenburg”, associated with “Alt-Seegaard”, would therefore be located in the municipality of Sörup.
  • The Grauburg is an archaeologically proven castle on the south side of the Winderatter See, which also belongs to the municipality of Sörup. According to an old tradition, a stone dam located there should lead to Alt-Seegaard.
