history

Byhleguhre was first mentioned in a deed of sale about the possessions of the Lübbenau lordship on September 29, 1315 as "Belgar". The name comes from Lower Sorbian and means white mountain . Byhleguhre is said to have been near this mountain in the past, but burned down almost completely in July 1719. The residents rebuilt the village on the spot where it can still be found today. Byhleguhre was subordinate to the Straupitz registry. Byhleguhre belonged to the Electorate of Saxony until 1806 and then to the Kingdom of Saxony . After the Wars of Liberation and the resolutions at the Congress of Vienna , Saxony had to cede Niederlausitz to the Kingdom of Prussia in 1815.

In the following year a comprehensive regional reform was carried out in Byhleguhre, after which the municipality Byhleguhre belonged to the district of Lübben in the province of Brandenburg . According to the topographical-statistical overview of the administrative district of Frankfurt adO from 1844, Byhleguhre had 111 residential buildings and 653 inhabitants at that time. A forester's house belonged to the place, Byhleguhre belonged to Straupitz in the church. In 1867, the settlement known as Alt-Byhleguhre had 763 inhabitants, and the Kokainz settlement with 13 inhabitants to the southwest of the town center on the north flood plain is also listed.

At the time of National Socialism , Byhleguhre was renamed "Geroburg" in October 1937, as the place was associated with the Margrave Gero . The reason for the renaming was the Germanization of Sorbian place names in Lausitz . On October 1, 1938, the communities of Mühlendorf and Neu-Geroburg were incorporated into Byhleguhre. In 1945 Geroburg and Neu-Geroburg got their original names back.

On July 25, 1952, the community Byhleguhre was assigned to the district of Lübben in the GDR district of Cottbus . After the reunification , the place was in the Lübben district in Brandenburg . On October 1, 1992, the community joined the Oberspreewald office (today Lieberose / Oberspreewald office ). After the district reform in Brandenburg on December 6, 1993 , Byhleguhre finally came to the newly formed district of Dahme-Spreewald . On October 26, 2003, Byhleguhre was merged with the neighboring Byhlen to form the new municipality of Byhleguhre-Byhlen . Byhleguhre remains one of the parish Straupitz.
