Nübel Castle

Nübel Castle is an abandoned medieval low castle of the type of a tower hill castle (Motte) near Steinbergkirche in Schleswig-Holstein , which consists of an older part in the north and a younger part in the south. The remains of the tower hill remained from the older part. The younger part still exists today as a farm .

location

The location of Nübel Castle is neither in the Nübel municipality of the same name in the southern part of Angelns , nor in Nybøl Sogn ( German : Parish of Nübel) on the north side of the Flensburg Fjord , but in the northeast of the fishing peninsula. To the north, parallel to Nordstraße , between the towns of Hattlund and Dollerup , the street Nübel runs. ( Location ). There are several houses on this street, including a large southern and a large northern farm. The northern of these two courtyards emerged from Nübel Castle. To the northeast of Nübel, three and four kilometers away, are the former noble estates Friedrichstal and Philipsthal, which originally belonged to Nübel's property.

history

Nübel Castle was first mentioned in the 15th century. At that time the lands of Satrupholm and Gammelbygaard were probably merged into one new estate. Around 1435 this newly formed land property was assigned to the respected nobleman Henning von der Hagen (also called Henneke von dem Hagen) to redeem a lien , who probably built the new aristocratic residence there, which was given the name "Nyeböll". The name Nübel consists of a prefix that means “new” and the suffix-büll ”, which means that the name indicates a “new settlement”.

After the Flensburg Duburg had been conquered by the Holsteiners during the Danish-Hanseatic War in 1431, the Flensburg Castle was given to Henning von der Hagen and Drosten Hinrich Rixdorf. After 1437 Henning von der Hagen was a bailiff there . The squire Joachim von der Hagen, son of Henning von der Hagen, sold the family's property in southern Angling. Among other things, on September 26, 1463 he sold the Thumbygaard farm near Struxdorf ( Lage ) to the canon Andreas Junge. At the same time he presumably acquired more land near Nübel to expand the property there. Klaus von der Hagen, son of Joachim von der Hagen, owned Steinberg as well as Nübel . Klaus von Hagen died in Dithmarschen in 1500 , apparently at the battle of Hemmingstedt . Nübel Castle remained in the possession of the von der Hagen family in the subsequent period. Around 1578 Nübel was owned by Joachim von der Hagen. This was followed by his son Henneke, who in addition to Nübel also owned Ostergaard, Lundsgaard and Ellgaard . Said Henneke von der Hagen was the councilor of the Glücksburg Duke Philipp and bailiff of the more distant Lügumkloster , northeast of Tondern . Henneke von der Hagen died in 1597. His son Klaus had to pledge the goods to Wulf vom Damm for 26,020 thalers due to high debt, which led to disputes.

In 1618, Duke Hans the Younger bought the castle complex and the surrounding lands for 180,125 marks and built a new castle with a chapel near Nübel , with which the younger, southern part of the castle complex , the Nübelhof, was built at the latest by this time. In the period that followed, the Meierhöfe Friedrichstal (1628) and Philipsthal (1712) were built on the Nübel estate . The property initially remained in the possession of the Glücksburg dukes. In 1755/56 the Nübelhof was laid down, partially demolished and the courtyard field parceled out . On March 15, 1756 in Glücksburg in front of the administrative building, the estate's land was offered for sale. That was the end for the settling of the small-holding peasants in Nübel, Nübelfeld, Nübelmoor and Gräfsholz serfdom . They became free farmers who since then have farmed their own soil . In 1779 the remnant of the Nübelhof, excluding the Meierhöfe Friedrichstal and Phillipsthall, fell to the Danish King Christian VII. How long the main courtyard was owned by the Danish crown is unclear. After the German-Danish War in 1865, the part of Schleswig , in which Nübel is also located, became part of the Prussian province of Schleswig-Holstein . In 1959, the main farm was owned by the Otzen family, who used it as a farm . The villages created after the subdivision celebrated their bicentenary in 1965 and their two hundred and fifty years of existence in 2006. Today the farm is owned by the Hansen family.

description

The older castle complex is in the north of the Wiesental valley there ( Lage ), the younger castle complex in the south of the Wiesental valley ( Lage ). To the north-west of today's farm there is a flat headland-like area in the middle of the lowland . The tower-like remains of the old Nübel Castle have been preserved there. The hill is 1.6 meters high and 52 meters in diameter. Of the surrounding ditch , only an 8-10 meter wide and 1.5 meter deep dry trench remained . On the inside, on the edge of the hill area, faint wall remnants remained visible. The south side of this older castle complex does not show a round shape, but is straightened. The dimensions of this older system are 60 × 70 meters. 50 meters further south, the younger castle complex joins today's courtyard. This system is 1.4 meters above meadow level and is 150 meters wide from west to east and 100 meters in length from north to south. The irregularly shaped courtyard is bordered to the southeast by an 8-10 meter wide dry trench with a depth of one meter ( position ).
