The building at Berliner Straße 19 in the small town of Ruhland in the Oberspreewald-Lausitz district in the south of Brandenburg has a massive ground floor with a half-timbered upper floor . It is registered in the list of monuments of the state of Brandenburg and is in the list of architectural monuments in Ruhland . The headquarters of the Grubann publishing house and an associated printing house , in which the local newspaper Elster-Chronik was also published , was located here.

history

The building was erected between 1650 and 1700 after a city fire and rebuilt between 1800 and 1850 and has served as a residential and commercial building ever since. It is a two-storey, seven-axle building with a massive ground floor, half-timbered construction on the upper floor, a simple roof structure and a crooked hip roof . The upper floor is clad in two colors with slate panels on the north and east sides.

Grubann publishing house and printing house

Carl Georg Grubann came from Uhyst to Ruhland in 1873 (at the age of 25) to open a printing house here. In 1875 he founded a regional newspaper, initially called "Schlesisch-Sächsischer Anzeiger, newspaper for entertainment and business, ..., especially of the places, Ruhland, Ortrand, Mückenberg, Bockwitz, Lauchhammer and the surrounding area" twice a week, since 1891 three times, from 1900 four times and appeared six times from 1912. The name was changed to the concise name Elster-Chronik in October of the year it was founded . The industrial boom enabled him to expand the business to Senftenberg and other local issues, with the Ruhland business being maintained even after the move to Senftenberg (on May 9, 1892), and the city of Ruhland and clubs continued to be supported. Carl Georg Grubann died on Christmas Day 1921; he had already handed over the business to his two sons Georg and Edmund two years earlier.

Georg and Edmund Grubann went through several labor camps from the end of May 1945 , whereby Georg Grubann died at the age of 60 on September 28, 1945 in a Russian prison hospital in Opole (Opole). In November 1945 Edmund was released from prison in Grudziądz (Graudenz) and managed to get to Senftenberg. In 1947 the publishing house and all parts of the company were expropriated . The printing house in Ruhland became " VEB Lausitzdruck Ruhland ". In 1989 cookery and other books, also in Sorbian, were printed here.

Elster Chronicle

first October edition 1875

Since October 1875 the "Elster-Chronik" has been published by Grubann-Verlag . Carl Georg Grubann was also the publisher of the "Senftenberger Anzeiger" (1875–1924 Markt 11, Senftenberg, then Laugkstrasse 19) from 1892 - Friedrich Pelz was closed down. The Senftenberger Anzeiger had six local editions: Elster-Chronik, Ortrander Stadtbote, Wochenblatt für Altdöbern , Grossräschener Anzeiger, Lautawerks-Anzeiger, Annahütter Werksbote. The content was identical, only the “headline” was exchanged, which was later dispensed with: after December 1933, the “Elster Chronicle” can no longer be found in local archives. Between 1947 and 1950 the Senftenberger Anzeiger appeared as a kind of notice sheet in A3 format. It consisted of official communications from the city, the parties and other mass organizations as well as a local advertising section. One such sheet appeared every week, printed on both sides.

With the formation of the districts , the Lausitzer Rundschau editorial team was commissioned to act as an organ of the Cottbus district management of the SED in Cottbus from August 15, 1952 . The Senftenberger Anzeiger became a local section. The Lausitzer Rundschau is still published daily with regional editions in Senftenberg.

The "Elster Chronicle" was and is a treasure trove for local researchers from Ruhland. Horst Bormann published a series of articles under the title “The Elster Chronicle knows it still (Ruhland 100 years ago)” in a local history series in the official journal of the city (later of the Ruhland office). This aroused interest and also made archive material that had already been forgotten available to a broad public.

Recent history

Berliner Straße 19a, spot online

The building was sold to a Ruhland family in 2000, who secured the structure from 2001 to 2003. In the years 2003 to 2014 there was a repair workshop and sales for home electronics (TV, video and CD device service center) on the ground floor.

A printing and advertising agency has been located in Berliner Straße 19a, originally an adjoining building complex to the printing shop, since 1991, most recently Spot-online Ruhland. From January 1993 to October 2010 the Ruhlander Official Gazette was printed here.

Trivia

Citizen letter drawn up in 1844 for Christian Gotthelf Schneider jun.

Berliner Strasse 18; Christian Gottlieb Schneider and his descendants: During the city fire of August 24, 1768, the neighboring building at Berliner Straße 18, the house of the former mayor Johann Christian Spahn († 1765, according to the chronicle, August the Strong stayed with him once) burned down. In 1769 Christian Gottlieb Schneider bought the property from the “Spahnische Erben” as a “wild fire” and built a large “precious residential house” there. He, his father and later his son were fish and eel traders. This guild was important in Ruhland, Elster fish were sold a lot to Dresden, where in 1722 there was even a separate house for frequent visits there. Christian Gottlieb was mayor from 1793 to 1811, his son Christian Gotthelf from 1811 to 1816. The striking house on the access road to the market was then also looted during the chaos of war (the “first onslaught of the Soldateska”). According to family tradition, Christian Gotthelf was once taken hostage as far as Bautzen, and the city released him. The fish trade collapsed when the Black Elster was straightened ("regulated") to protect against flooding .

Christian Gotthelf founded a grocery and haberdashery ("colonial goods", also fabrics) business in 1819. The branch of the Oberlausitzer Provinzial- und Nebensparkasse founded in 1830 was first in the pharmacy, and since 1833 in this building. The managing director ("Rendant") was initially Christian Gotthelf jun. and the office was later passed on from father to son. Christian Gotthelf jun. then had the house torn down in 1850 and built the current house by his cousin, the master builder and later building counselor Herschenz (also cousin of the pharmacist's wife Wesenberg, née Schneider). The business then went to his son Ernst Schneider, who converted it entirely to a textile business, and later to his first son Curt (Christian Gotthelf Bernhard Curt). Ernst Schneider built the side building and a stair tower in the courtyard in 1888. Below was the sale, above was the clothing . He was mayor from 1914 to 1918, but was almost always at the front, and in 1919 he became an honorary citizen. Modest renovations were made in 1926 after the inflation . Healed from a serious war injury through an operation in 1936, Ernst Schneider was drafted again as an officer in 1939. In the meantime the business was given up and rented out as storage space: during the war to the BRABAG factory in Schwarzheide, then to the company Trautmann und Muschter, then to the consumer cooperative (again with textile sales).
