Amt Freienwalde

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vorwerk Torgelow, seat of the Freienwalde office. Detail from the Urmes table sheet 3249 Heckelberg from 1844

The Amt Freienwalde was an electoral-Brandenburg , later a royal-Prussian domain office with its seat in the Vorwerk Torgelow near the town of Bad Freienwalde (Oder) (then only Freienwalde) ( district of Märkisch-Oderland , Brandenburg ). The office came from the small aristocratic rule of the v. Uchtenhagen , which finally came to the sovereign in 1618. The Amt Freienwalde was converted into a domain rent office in 1816 and finally merged with the Amt Wriezen (based in the city of Wriezen ) in 1821 .

history

As early as 1604, after the death of his only son Caspar, Hans von Uchtenhagen sold the town of Freienwalde and its goods, located on both sides of the Oder, to Elector Johann Sigismund for 25,000 thalers. The goods located east of the Oder should be handed over immediately, but the properties west of the Oder should only be handed over after his death. He also granted a buyback right in the event that he should get an heir. In 1618 he died without an heir and the goods west of the Oder were finally transferred to the tax authorities. For the estates located west of the Oder at that time, the Amt Freienwalde was created with an official seat on the Vorwerk Torgelow , and for the estates located east of the Oder the Amt Neuenhagen with an official seat in Neuenhagen . The Neuenhagen office administratively belonged to the Königsberg Nm district. , but was subject to the Kurmärkischen War and Domain Chamber until 1801 .

Associated places

The following list essentially follows the list of localities of the administrative district of Potsdam from 1817.

  • Freienwalde , today the city of Bad Freienwalde (Oder). The town of Freienwalde belonged to the original accessories of the Freienwalde rule. The office was entitled to jurisdiction. The city only had jurisdiction over commercial matters. In 1798, Freienwalde was given police administration in the city. In 1783 the office also had three water mills. Although the respective millers owned their mills, they had to pay the leases to the office.
    • Vormühle (or Vordermühle ), on the way to Wriezen, today Wriezener Straße 27a.
    • Papenmühle, watermill, belonging to Freienwalde , building Gesundbrunnen 32 / 32a of the city of Bad Freienwalde / Oder
    • Kietzmühle (or Obere Kietzmühle), meal, saw and cutting mill, today Hammerthal 3/4.
  • Freienwalder ferry . The Fährkrug in the Bad Freienwalder district of Schiffmühle (for example in the Am Fährkrug 1/5 area) reminds of the important Oder crossing, now known as the Alte Oder . The ferry jug itself already belonged to the Neuenhagen office.
  • Freienwalder forest . Located south and southwest of the city.
  • Altkietz ( fishing village ), today the residential area of ​​the city of Bad Freienwalde. Altkietz was one of the original accessories of the Freienwalde estate.
  • Alttornow ( fishing village ), residential area of ​​the city of Bad Freienwalde. The place belonged to the rule of Freienwalde even before 1375 and came with the other v. Uchtenhagen's goods to the Freienwalde office.
  • Neukietz ( Koloniedorf ), today part of the municipality of Bad Freienwalde / Oder. The place was founded in 1760 on the old Oder dam.
  • Sonnenburg ( leasehold farm ), today a residential area of ​​the city of Bad Freienwalde. In the Middle Ages there was a castle here and probably also a village. It was deserted as early as 1375. In 1459, Sonnenburg was named as a church location. It is unclear whether the village was occupied or only the castle was left. In 1599, Hans v. Uchtenhagen still issued a certificate on the Sonnenburg. In 1618 the place fell together with the other v. Uchtenhagen's goods to the tax authorities and thus to the Freienwalde office. The castle later fell into disrepair.
  • Sonnenburg, forester's house , in the Sonnenburg residential area of ​​the city of Bad Freienwalde (Sonnenburg 2)
  • Torgelow ( leasehold farm ), part of the municipality of Falkenberg . The medieval village fell into desolation at the beginning or at the latest by the mid-14th century. It is said to have stood at the intersection of today's L 35 with the B 158 , i.e. at today's Platzfelde residential area . The mayor of Freienwalde Prenzlow claims to have seen the walls of the old Torgelow churchyard at the beginning of the 18th century. At that time it was an accessory to the rule of Freienwalde. This was owned by the v. Uchtenhagen. Even before 1470 they lent half of the desert field mark to the von Pfuel . Hans von Pfuel renounced this half in 1471 in favor of his cousins ​​Christoph and Wilhelm von Pfuel. In 1477 they sold this half with the consent of their liege lord Caspar v. Uchtenhagen to the city of Freienwalde for 50 groschen. In 1575 a division contract between the brothers Hans and Werner v. Uchtenhagen on the one hand and the city of Freienwalde on the other hand the borders of the Feldmark and the two parts. On the v. Uchtenhagen's half soon after 1575 a Vorwerk was built, which was named after the old village. In 1618 this half fell to the treasury, and the official seat was moved to Torgelow. In 1747 the Vorwerk was leased to the Great Military Orphanage in Potsdam. On the other half, the city of Freienwalde built the Vorwerk Platz before 1696 , which burned down in 1890 and was not rebuilt.

On December 18, 1816, the supervision of the Freienwalder Fährdamm (previously the Neuenhagen office ) was transferred to the Wriezen-Freienwalde Rent Office . Around 1850 the village of Beiersdorf was transferred from the Biesenthal office to the administration of the Freienwalde-Wriezen rent office .
