geography
The village of Bertkow is located about 3 kilometers east of Goldbeck and about 14 kilometers north of Stendal in the east of the Altmark .
The north-eastern part, the former Alt Bertkow, a double street village with a church, shows the traces of an old Rundlingdorf and the southwestern part, the former Neu Bertkow, originally a street village, have grown together over time to form the village of Bertkow.
The district Bertkow consists of the districts Bertkow and Plätz. The Balsamgraben flows to the east and drains the area between the Uchte and Elbe towards the north.
Neighboring towns are Goldbeck in the west, Plätz in the northwest, Krusemark in the east and Altenau in the south.
history
In 1225 an Ottonis advocati de Bertigge appeared as a witness.
On the homepage of today's Goldbeck community it is reported that Bertkow was first mentioned in 1240 in connection with the family of the same name. The historian Peter P. Rohrlach writes that the village of Bertkow was first mentioned as villa Bertekowe in 1291 . Another mention of the place comes from 1343 as to bertekowe .
In 1437 Alten Bertkow was mentioned as czu Bertkow In der Alden Strasse and Neue Bertkow as czu Bertkow In der Nuwen Strasse . Other names of the places are for example 1450 Nigenbertekow , 1598 Nien Bertkow , 1687 Neue Bertkow and Alten Bertkow , 1711 Neüen Behrkau . In 1804 there was the noble estate and village of Alt-Bertkau with a mother church and the village of Neu-Bertkau .
In the village chronicle it says: In old writings one speaks of Alt-Bertkow, a round village around the church with two manors. One manor is the manor house, or "Schloss zu Bertkow". It has been continuously renovated since 1996. It no longer shows that it survived a major fire. The two manors were later united into one. The name Otto von Bertkow also appears in old writings around 1225. He was the head of the Bertkow family, which owned the manor house until 1804. In addition, Neu-Bertkow is mentioned in old writings, a street village as it was quite common at the time.
In 1992 the place subsequently celebrated its 750th anniversary. At the same time the new streets were inaugurated with a big festival.
Land reform and agriculture after 1945
Peter P. Rohrlach describes the agricultural conditions after 1945: During the land reform in 1945, the following were determined: one property over 100 hectares had 162 hectares, 17 properties under 100 hectares had a total of 342 hectares, one church property had 16 hectares, two communal holdings had a total of 0.8 Hectares. A property with 233 hectares was administered and cultivated by the SMAD . The manor of the owner Graf von Westphalen with 238 hectares was expropriated. Of this, 41.5 hectares went to the land fund. After approval by the Red Army, from 1946 it was a provincial estate with an area of 182 hectares, 21.9 hectares had gone to the community. In 1948 the previous provincial estate was dissolved as a country estate because it was relocated to wipers. The manor in Alt Bertkow of the owner Löwe with 1674 hectares was also expropriated. In 1948, 247 hectares were redistributed (31 hectares to 4 farm workers, 199 hectares to 24 resettlers, 7 hectares to two poor farmers, 6 hectares to the VdgB , 4 hectares to the community). The overall result from the land reform was 44 full settlers each over 5 hectares, 14 small settlers each under 5 hectares. In 1954 the first type III agricultural production cooperative was established in Bertkow, the LPG, type III "Glückauf", with which other LPGs were later merged and from which today's agricultural cooperative emerged.
Bertkow Castle
The former manor house in Alt Bertkow is now called "Schloss zu Bertkow". The name goes back to the Bertkow family, who owned the estate until 1804. The Rendelmann and Löwe families later bought the estate. The entrance portal of the house bears the inscription "The father's blessing builds houses for the children" and the year 1894. On the right and left above the door the coat of arms of the house and the free space for the former clock. As early as 1930 there was a kindergarten in the half-timbered house on the Ochsenhof for the children of the servants of the manor house, which moved into a newly built barrack in 1937/38. The Löwes were expropriated in 1945 and went to West Germany. Refugee families found a place to stay in the former manor house before they could build houses and buy land as part of the land reform. In 1950 the manor house was renamed "Kulturhaus". There was a culture hall, a kindergarten, and later a crèche . From 1990 it was renovated, damaged by a smoldering fire in 1993 and then renovated and restored as a village community center. In 1994 the “Lion Festival” was celebrated in Bertkow, the 85th birthday of Ulrich Löwe, the youngest son of the last landowner Berthold Löwe, whose family is still connected to the place today. Since 2002 the house has been called "Schloss zu Bertkow".
Origin of the place name
The place name "bartkow" 1496 probably comes from Polabian . The word "bartnek" means "beekeeper". The syllable "kowe" stands for "apartment, hut".
Incorporations
The rural community Alt Bertkow was last mentioned in 1871. From 1895 there was Bertkow. The rural community of Neu Bertkow was apparently united with the rural community of Bertkow between 1885 and 1895.
