geography

Geographical location

Bad Sülze borders the towns of Marlow in the northwest and Tribsees in the southeast. In the west the municipality of Dettmannsdorf forms the border, in the south the municipality Lindholz and in the north the municipality Eixen . The area is characterized by the Recknitz and Trebel lowlands with many nature reserves .

The Grenztalmoor between Bad Sülze and Tribsees is of particular value . Here you will find vegetation rarities such as thread-rooted sedge, bogberry , crowberry , bell heather , seven-star , king fern , broad-leaved stendrums and small rattlespot . But also ornithological peculiarities such as gray heron , corncrake , spotted eagle , sprout , woodcock (during the breeding season) and robins occur. The Recknitz valley near Bad Sülze is therefore a bird sanctuary within the framework of the Natura 2000 program of the European Union .

City structure

The town of Bad Sülze consists of the districts Bad Sülze and Reddersdorf.

history

Excavations on the Redderstorfer Flur show that the area was settled from the Neolithic through the Bronze and Slavic ages to the Middle Ages .

middle Ages

Brawn is the place at the salt spring . Salt pans were already occupied before 1229. Around 1229 it was attested that there were brine springs at the place . In 1243 the Doberan Monastery was granted the right to boil salt in Sulta (lat. Salina ) . The Low German place name changed in 1287 to Sulte , 1301 to Sulten and later to Sülte and Sülze . The salt museum still bears witness to the place name.

Between 1255 and 1260 the place received city ​​rights from the princes of Rostock , and in 1287 it was mentioned as a civitas . The first message from the church in Sülze comes from 1276. A city ​​seal can be found for the first time in 1289 under a document issued in Stralsund . Prince Nicholas of Mecklenburg-Rostock presented in 1298 the city under Lübeck law and moved the jurisdiction of Marlow after brawn, which is now the seat of a bailiff was. From 1488 to 1768 the city was under noble "guardianship". Then Sülze became a state town in Mecklenburg and as such was one of the towns in the Wendish district that were represented on the Mecklenburg state parliaments of the states united in 1523 until 1918 . In 1599 Henricus Calander founded the first school in Sülze.

16th to 19th century

The Thirty Years War destroyed the city except for a few houses. The graduation tower , built in 1620, had to stop production. The city recovered only slowly from the aftermath of the war. In 1744 the salt works were leased to Jacob Sigismund Waitz von Eschen . The period from 1807 to 1830 was marked by great successes for the saltworks. The Prahmkanal was built and the saltworks were taken over by the grand ducal state government in 1816 . At that time, 1,600 people lived in the city.

In 1822 the first brine treatments were administered and in 1824 the institutional spa was started with the Grand Ducal Soolbadeanstalt (Kurhaus). Around 2,500 inhabitants were counted as early as 1850. In 1895 Sülze received a railway connection. The Friedrich-Franz-Bahn ran from Rostock via Sülze to Tribsees. Due to inefficiency, the salt production was stopped in 1907 and the last load of salt was ceremoniously driven out of the city. During this time, however, brine and mud baths continued to gain importance.

Recent history

In 1927 the city was recognized as a health resort and was allowed to call itself Bad Sülze . In 1944 the last graduation tower was badly damaged by a lightning strike. Finally it was demolished in 1970.

The core city with the areas west of the Recknitz was part of the Rostock district in the state of Mecklenburg until 1952 , the urban areas east of the Recknitz were part of the Franzburg-Barth district (until 1946 in the Prussian province of Pomerania ). The city then belonged to the Ribnitz-Damgarten district until 1994 (until 1990 in the GDR district of Rostock , then in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania ). From 1994 until the district reform in 2011 , Bad Sülze was in the district of North Western Pomerania , and since then in the district of Western Pomerania-Rügen .

The city center and the town hall have been completely renovated since 1991 as part of the urban development subsidy. In 1993 the new Median Clinic was opened and the old health clinic closed. What has remained is the spa park, where the city's dahlia festival is celebrated in September. Several hundred dahlias can be admired in the spa gardens during this time.

Redderstorf district

Redderstorf was mentioned around 1179 when Prince Heinrich Borwin I of Mecklenburg enfeoffed Heinrich von Bützow with parts of Marlow and nine associated villages. In 1326 Prince Heinrich II of Mecklenburg granted the town of Sülze possession of the village of Redderstorf. In 1360 the place came as a pledge to the von Dewitz and von der Lühe families and in 1371 to the cathedral chapter of Schwerin. In 1450 the estate was fiefdom or property u. a. of the von der Lühe families (with interruptions until 1881), von Pflugk (until 1909) and Borck . After 1945 the estate was relocated. The place was incorporated into Bad Sülze on July 1, 1950.
