The Office Eldenburg (until 1769 Amt Lenzen ) was a royal Prussian domain office , with the official seat in Eldenburg , today a district of the city of Lenzen (Elbe) ( Prignitz district , Brandenburg ). The office emerged from the older office of Lenzen, to which in 1719 the property of the Quitzow family confiscated by the elector was attached to Eldenburg ( rule of Eldenburg ). 1769 the official residence of which was Lenzen Castle on Castle Eldenburg laid and the Office Office Eldenburg renamed.

location

The office Eldenburg was in the western part of today's Prignitz district, parts of the former office now also belong to the Ludwigslust-Parchim district . It stretched from the Elbe into what is now Mecklenburg .

history

The Brandenburg Margrave Albrecht II granted the land of Lenzen ( terra Lenzen) with the castle to Count Heinrich von Schwerin in 1219 . When Lenzen or the state of Lenzen came to the Mark Brandenburg , it cannot be clarified due to a lack of documents. The town of Lenzen was established under Count Heinrich von Schwerin, at least the settlement near the castle was given the town charter under this lord around 1220. In 1237 Lenzen belonged to the Counts of Dannenberg , in 1252 it was again owned by the Brandenburg margraves Johann I and Otto III. After that, the castle, town and country of Lenzen were often pledged. From 1484 onwards, the Brandenburg Elector Albrecht Achilles had the land of Lenzen administered by a bailiff; the Lenzen office was thus created. However, the office was pledged or lent again and again in the following century, for example in 1507 from Elector Joachim I and Margrave Albrecht to Achim von der Schulenburg. Presumably the Lenzen office only comprised a smaller part of the original terra Lenzen.

In 1719, the small noble lordship of Eldenburg, owned by the Quitzow family, fell back to the elector. He now had it administered by the Lenzen Office. In 1769 the official seat was even moved to Eldenburg Castle and the office was renamed Amt Eldenburg . In 1818 the Eldenburg office is referred to in the handbook on the royal Prussian court and state (for 1818) as Eldenburg and Lenzen Rent Office. In the location directory of the Potsdam district from 1841, however, the office appears again under the old name, Amt Lenzen. From 1854 it is only referred to in the Royal Prussian State Calendar for the year 1854 as the Domain Police Office Eldenburg-Lenzen. From the state calendar of 1858, the domain police office is again listed as the Lenzen office. In 1874 the office was dissolved.
