Office Fehrbellin

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The office of Fehrbellin , in the 16th century still the office of Bellin , was an electoral Brandenburg office around the city of Fehrbellin ( Ostprignitz-Ruppin district , Brandenburg ). It originally belonged to the Havelberg Monastery , which was initially administered by the Electorate of Brandenburg from 1553, and from 1571 was also formally united with the Electorate of Brandenburg. The office of Fehrbellin was dissolved in 1872 with the district reform in Prussia.

Geographical location

The Fehrbellin office comprises only a small part of today's (large) community of Fehrbellin, which emerged from the Fehrbellin office in Brandenburg, which existed from 1992 to 2003 . Fehrbellin is approx. 60 km northwest of Berlin.

history

In 1294 the margraves Otto , Conrad , Heinrich , Johann and Otto the Younger left the little land of Bellin to the Bishop of Havelberg for 2000  marks of silver. Of this, 800 silver marks were withheld by the diocese to settle debts of the margraves to the diocese of Havelberg. Under canon law, the little country Bellin did not belong to the diocese of Havelberg at all, but to the diocese of Brandenburg . Not until 1337 did the diocese of Brandenburg sell the bishop's tenth (⅔ of the total tenth) for 100 silver marks to the diocese of Havelberg. The little country Bellin now also de facto belonged to the diocese of Havelberg.

At the end of the Middle Ages , the Havelberg Monastery was administratively divided into four offices: Wittstock Office, Plattenburg Office, Schönhausen Office and Bellin Office (formerly called Ländchen Bellin). In 1553 the Havelberg Monastery (and with it the Bellin Office) came under the administration of the Electorate of Brandenburg , but initially remained as an administrative unit. In 1571 Margrave Joachim Friedrich united the bishopric with the electorate, the offices of the bishopric were added to the electoral domanial property. Around 1600, the name Fehrbellin prevailed for the place Bellin, and the office was now also called Amt Fehrbellin.

Associated municipalities

The ownership structure in the Brandenburg villages of the late Middle Ages and early modern times was often very fragmented and therefore quite complicated. The elector had the upper and lower courts in all the villages of the office. However, some of the farmers' taxes often went to other beneficiaries. According to the list of localities from 1817, the Fehrbellin office included:

  • Betzin . Most of the farmers had to do their duties and services to the Fehrbellin office. In addition, had Captain von der Hagen on Karwesee a courtyard with four hooves in Betzin
  • Well . In addition to the Fehrbellin office, Rittmeister v. Zieten and the Landrath v. Zieten still partially owned.
  • Dechtow . Further ownership shares belonged to the Amt Vehlefanz and the Lieutenant General v. Zieten
  • Fehrbellin . In the city, a Vorwerk belongs to the office in which the official seat was also.
  • Field mountains . Partial ownership also belonged to the Rittmeister von der Hagen in Karwesee, and the Rittmeister v. Zieten
  • Hook mountain . In addition to the office, District Administrator v. Plessen and the Council of State Wilcken's property
  • Karwesee . The cathedral in Berlin and the Rittmeister von der Hagen also had titles here
  • Lentzke . Here was an estate in the possession of Generalin v. Byern and another property belonged to the v. Lenzke heirs .
  • Lentzker Mühle , a Vorwerk and watermill was in full possession of the office.
  • Linum was in full possession of the office.
  • Tarmow . An estate in the village belonged to Lieutenant General v. Zieten

In 1872 the Fehrbellin office was dissolved.
