Biegen Castle, former seat of the Biegen office

The office of Biegen was an electoral Brandenburg and later a royal Prussian domain office , which was formed in 1665 with the acquisition of the small aristocratic rule of Biegen by the Brandenburg Great Elector Friedrich Wilhelm . In the first half of the 18th century, the meanwhile greatly enlarged office was awarded several times to favorites of the Russian tsarist family. It was merged and dissolved with the Frankfurt / Oder office in 1839 .

history

The Great Elector Friedrich Wilhelm bought the village of Biegen and its Vorwerk as well as the village of Hohenwalde and ¾ of the village of Pillgram from the von Röbel family on September 1, 1665. The purchase took place in connection with the construction of the Friedrich Wilhelm Canal in the years 1662 to 1668. The construction of the Friedrich Wilhelm Canal in the Schlaubetal z. T. led to massive damage to the residents through waterlogging. In order to avoid claims for damages, the elector bought the damaged goods.

The city of Müllrose was a margravial media city , but was awarded early (before 1375). In 1644 this property was divided into six parts. In 1668 the elector first acquired a sixth from the v. Burgsdorff. In 1672 another three sixths of the v. Burgsdorf to the Elector, of which a third was in pledge possession of the v. Beerfelde. As early as 1670, the elector had also bought the remaining third of the village of Pillgram from Dr. Georg Konrad Bergius acquired.

On October 17, 1713, Friedrich Wilhelm I gave the office of bending to the favorite of the Russian Tsarina Katharina I. Alexander Danilowitsch Menshikov . He also acquired the remaining two sixths of Müllrose from the v. Burgsdorff and the Chamber Councilor Rost for the Biegen office. The Burgdorff sixth was to v. Runckel was mortgaged. Menshikov fell from grace after the Tsarina died in 1727 and was exiled to Siberia, where he died two years later. His fortune fell to the Russian crown. The office of Biegen was also withdrawn from him on November 29, 1727. From 1727 to 1731 it was again a royal Prussian domain. In 1729/30 it was apparently leased to bailiff Hartmann before Friedrich Wilhelm I loaned it to the lover of Russian Tsarina Anna Ernst Johann von Biron on June 19, 1731 . After the death of Tsarina Anna, Biron was arrested on November 20, 1740, his property confiscated and exiled to Siberia. On December 3, 1740, Friedrich Wilhelm I withdrew the fief and lent it to Burkhard Christoph von Münnich , the new Russian Prime Minister, on January 29, 1741 . Münnich was released in May 1741 and finally arrested in December 1741. His goods were confiscated and he was exiled to Siberia. Friedrich Wilhelm I also withdrew the fiefdom again and later managed the small lordship as a royal domain office. The office was expanded further. In 1751, the Biegenbrück colony was established on the official territory. In 1766 a colony was founded at the Duberow Vorwerk; In the same year the Neu-Lindow colony was established. In 1780 ( Schulze : 1781) Neupillgram (or the Pillgram colony) was established by adding six Büdners. In 1823 the Biegen office received a few villages from the University of Frankfurt / Oder, which was dissolved in 1811, such as Brieskow , Jacobsdorf and Unter Lindow (today Groß Lindow). The Dubrow Vorwerk was sold to Amtmann Fischer in 1832. The outworks in Biegen, Hohenwalde and Pillgram were also sold. In 1839 the Biegen office was transferred to the Frankfurt office and dissolved.
