geography

The small community of Böhne is around 5 km south of Rathenow . In the west and north, the place is enclosed by the Königsgraben, which flows into the Havel in the northeast . The place is in the nature reserve "Untere Havel" and is characterized by meadows, fields, forests and many wetlands and watercourses.

history

The Burgward Plaue once counted Böhne as an archbishop's fiefdom among his possessions. Böhne was first mentioned in 1370 as a fiefdom of the Archdiocese of Magdeburg under the name Bone . In 1412 Böhne was sacked by the Quitzows and Putlitz . "Around 1420 Böhne is called 'dat Dorp to den Bone' and 'villa Bone' and is given two knight seats."

On June 8, 1675, Rathenow was occupied by the Swedish Dragoon Regiment during the invasion of Sweden in 1674/75 . In the house of the Havelland district administrator, Jacob Friedrich von Briest (1631–1703) zu Böhne, on the eve of June 15, 1675, the elector Friedrich Wilhelm and high officers met for advice. They discussed the attack on Rathenow. On June 14, 1675, 7,000–8,000 men of the Brandenburg Army were in the forest between Vieritz and Böhne and had camped there. The planned attack from Böhne over the Lange Brücke in Rathenow was supplemented by the simultaneous attack from the south side over the Eisenhammer. For this purpose, the exiled Rathenow mayor Bergmann brought the boats hidden near Milow to Böhne, where 400–500 musketeers, under the orders of Adjudant General von Kanowski and Lieutenant Colonel von Kanne, climbed the Havel and went down through Bergmann Rathenow were led. At the same time, Marshal Georg von Derfflinger was able to leave Böhne with a few dragoons around 11:00 in the evening. Since the road was very bad, they did not reach the town gates of Rathenow until the morning of June 15, 1675 around two o'clock. The then district administrator of Briest drove a car full of beer in front of the Haveltor in Rathenow in the morning. He called to the Swedish guards: "Mokt up, ick am Briest, ick breng je Behr!" The driver of the first car is said to have been Marshal Derfflinger himself. The Swedish occupiers then let the newcomers into the city. According to this ruse, the soldiers fought with great determination in the Battle of Rathenow against the Swedes . The Swedish regiment was completely defeated, 390 men had fallen, 200 captured and only a few escaped captivity. In addition, all the horses, six flags, two timpani and some shawms, as well as a lot of supplies that the Swedes had stolen, became a big booty of the winners. The house of the district administrator of Briest zu Böhne was then given the nickname "Schwedenhaus". It still stands today.

On August 28, 1836 between 10:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m., a fire broke out in the barn of the Kossaten and master blacksmith Johann Ost. This spread quickly. Inexorably the flames ate their way further and further into the place and left a wide swath of devastation. In the Böhner historiography it says: “With the great drought that took place for several weeks and the very blessed harvest that had just been completed, the fire repeatedly found new food. So that within a few hours, next to the church with the tower, the parish and school, many other buildings burned down completely. ”Only the buildings of the large and small manor, as well as a day laborer's house and four residential buildings were spared from the conflagration. On the instructions of the then Böhner landowner Robert Titus von Briesen, the place was restructured in the course of the reconstruction. The village received the local structure, which is still clearly recognizable today, with wide, straight streets. These now led from north to south and from east to west. The once confusing and narrow streets disappeared. Furthermore, from now on all newly constructed buildings had to be covered with roof tiles instead of the usual reed roofing. Both measures wanted to counteract another fire disaster. In addition to many other structures, the reconstruction of the parish and school buildings was completed in 1837. The Böhners celebrated the official completion of the rapid and successful reconstruction of the place on September 20, 1838. The spire was directed towards the steeple of the rebuilt church.

On September 30, 1928, the Böhne manor was combined with the Böhne rural community.

Attractions

church

Böhne village church - street view

When you come to Böhne, the pretty neo-Gothic village church with its dark red bricks immediately catches your eye. The weather vane on the tower bears the year of its construction: 1838. There is a very beautiful church village cemetery around it. If you enter the village church through the door in the church tower, you first come to a winter church under the organ gallery and then into the large nave. The bells invite you to the church services and the reconstructed organ plays. The peace and quiet of the church were very different at the beginning. Because the Evangelical Church of Böhne has risen from the dead. On August 28, 1836, the first church in Böhne, along with almost the entire village, fell victim to a devastating fire. Therefore nothing more is known about this church. If the Böhn master carpenter Beelitz hadn't run into the burning church, then not even the altar Bible, the altar cross and the two candlesticks would have been saved. After the great village fire of 1836 in Böhne, the local residents looked for a solution to rebuild their church. Unfortunately, the church that had burned down, along with the school and rectory in the fire box, were hopelessly underinsured. Nobody expected such a total write-off. Therefore, the village patron and pastor turned to the Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm III., Who was also the head of the Protestant church, with a request for help. He helped them by arranging a collection in all church services in all of Prussia, and so on a fixed Sunday from Aachen to Konigsberg people told about the village fire in Böhne from the pulpit. The people gave pennies, sixes, groschen and whole thalers so that the church in Böhne could be rebuilt. But the church should be built quickly. If possible it should be the fastest built church in Havelland, if not all of Prussia. Therefore, a trick was used in the church building department. A new church was not designed, but an already available and approved plan was used. It was designed by the Lücke government building officer from Berlin for the village church of Kleinwusterwitz and edited and changed slightly by Karl Friedrich Schinkel . The church in Kleinwusterwitz was planned for 1838, and now the same church is being built again in Böhne in parallel. So you could simply skip the long planning phase. The population of Böhn drove to sand from nearby Pappert. In June 1838 the church and tower construction could begin. It was concluded on September 20, 1838 with a ceremony at which the story of the village fire and the resurrection of the church was written down and placed in the ball on the spire. In this respect, the second church by Böhne was built in about three and a half months.

"Sweden House"

"Schwedenhaus" in Böhne

The old estate manager's house has a history of 350 years. On April 2, 1658, Hans von Briest, electoral Brandenburg chamberlain, died in Böhne. His son, Jacob Friedrich von Briest (born February 11, 1631 in Böhne; † August 12, 1703 in Böhne), was once electoral district administrator of the West-Havelland district. In autumn 1660 von Briest placed the order to build a new mansion on the farm in Böhne. The house was completed in 1661. 14 years later, the “Great Elector” is said to have stayed there in order to make preparations for the liberation of Rathenow from the Swedes. Since then, the Böhn property has been called the “Schwedenhaus”. The Swedish house was inhabited by the inspector of the property at the time of the last owner, GFM Günther von Kluge . In the 1960s, the administration of the LPG "Liberated Land" Böhne moved into the northern half of the house. In addition to the administration, there was also space for the company kitchen and the dining room for the LPG staff. The rest of the house was used as a residential building. It was only with the construction of an administrative and social wing at the end of the 1970s at the southern end of the village of Böhnes that part of the farm moved out of the building. Until about 1990/91 the rooms continued to serve as offices for the branch of the LPG animal production "Karl Marx" Vieritz. The house is currently used as a residential building.
