history

Yorck-Stein north of Altenzaun

In 1238 Altenzaun was first mentioned in a document as Odentunnen juxta Polkertz , when Count Siegfried von Osterburg assigned villages and properties in the Altmark, with which he had previously been enfeoffed by St. Ludgerikloster Helmstedt , to Abbot Gerhard von Werden and Helmstedt . In 1420 the ferry to Altenzaun is mentioned as vff de vere zcu aldentzune . Other names include 1436 olden Thun , 1499 zum Thun , 1687 Altenzaun and 1804 Altenzaun , village with two estates with Der Rüdow , two shepherds' houses on the eastern side of the Elbe.

On October 26, 1806, the battle of Altenzaun between Colonel Yorck von Wartenburg and Napoleon's troops took place here, which Yorck won. During the village festival in 2006 the events 200 years ago were remembered.

Origin of the place name

Ernst Haetge interpreted the place name in 1938 after the oldest form of the name Odentunnen as Odo's castle and Tun as a fence .

Incorporations

On September 30, 1928, the Altenzaun manor district was merged with the rural community Altenzaun.

The municipality Altenzaun was on 25 July 1952 by the district Osterburg in the district Osterburg reclassified. On January 1, 1969, the communities Osterholz (with the district Rosenhof) and Dalchau were incorporated into Altenzaun. Already 5 years later, on April 17, 1974, the district Dalchau was assigned to the city of Arneburg. As early as October 17, 1928, the Osterholz manor district was merged with part of the Rosenhof manor district with its Käcklitz residential area to form a rural municipality of Osterholz.

After the dissolution of the Osterburg district, Altenzaun came to the Stendal district on July 1, 1994.

On January 1, 2009, the communities of Altenzaun and Hohenberg-Krusemark, the districts of Hindenburg, Gethlingen, Klein Hindenburg, Klein Ellingen and Groß Ellingen merged to form the new association community Hohenberg-Krusemark. The districts of Osterholz and Rosenhof of the former municipality of Altenzaun were not listed in the contract, but the associated land numbers from the cadastre, so that Osterholz and Rosenhof also became districts of Hohenberg-Krusemark. Käcklitz was last mentioned in directories in 2006.

Transport links

The Stendal – Niedergörne railway line, which runs parallel to the road , only transports goods; the nearest station is in Goldbeck, 15 kilometers away on the Magdeburg – Wittenberge line .

Sage - The lost water at Altenzaun

Several authors report on lost water on a footpath in the fir forest between Altenzaun and Schwarzholz, which was formerly called the village of Polkritz at the point. A ditch at the border between the two places leads into a bottom, a large basin-like depression ten meters in diameter. Even when the ditch is filled, the water seeps away at the point and later reappears at the so-called Geestgraben, also called Hufergraben, today's Seegraben Iden. At the bottom there is said to have been a golden castle, which one day sank together with its resident, a beautiful princess. Every year on midsummer night at midnight the golden castle rises from the depths, the Söller looks out from above and the princess leans on it. It can only be redeemed by a wanderer who pulls it up.
