history
The name Calau, originally Slavic Carlowe , recalls the city's Slavic roots.
10th to 17th centuries
Margrave Gero subjugated the Lusitzi area around 963 . Around 970 it was subordinated to the diocese of Meissen . Calau was first mentioned in a document in 1279 in a document by Heinrich the Illustrious . From 1319 to 1368 it was owned by the von Ileburg family and from 1370 to 1635 by the Habsburgs . The predecessor of the town church was built in the 13th century . In the 15th century craftsmen built - from Mr. Heath starting - a water pipe Wooden pipes to supply the city with drinking water. The water got into eight pipe boxes , two of which have been preserved in the 21st century. One of them serves as a fountain at the town hall . In the 15th and 16th centuries Niederlausitzer Landtag was held several times in Calau. Two city fires in 1565 and 1573 caused great damage. From 1576 an empty castle served as a quarry for the reconstruction of the city. Another destruction took place during the Thirty Years War by the troops of Wallenstein . In 1635 and 1658 the city burned again and again the town hall fell victim to the flames. It was built in 1681. According to data from the Society for Leprology a medieval existed in Calau leprosarium , which was located "in front of the Cottbus goal." It was called an infirmary and was dedicated to Saint Catherine. It was destroyed in 1627 and rebuilt in 1649, the year of the first mention is not known.
18th and 19th centuries
During the coalition wars, the contribution and billeting of French troops weighed heavily on the city. Napoleon Bonaparte came through Calau on his way to Saxony on July 21, 1813 and stopped at the Cottbuser Tor . In 1815 Lower Lusatia became Prussian and the Margraviate was dissolved by the resolution of the Congress of Vienna . A year later, the Kalau district expanded by 85 places to form the Calau district . The work of the politician and pharmacist Carl Anwandter , who had been a member of the Prussian National Assembly since 1848 and was elected mayor of the city a year later , also fell into this period . In 1850 he emigrated to Chile and founded the colony Valdivia there . In 1848 the first issue of the magazine Kladderadatsch appeared , which was to become groundbreaking for the joke. In 1879 the town hall was rebuilt. In the course of the first industrial revolution , Robert Schlesier founded a shoe factory in Calau in 1892. At first, footwear was only produced there mechanically. This changed, however, with the construction of a power station, which supplied electricity for the street lighting in Calaus for the first time on January 21, 1897.
20th century
The tax office was established in 1925 and is used as a police station in the 21st century. The Catholic parish was founded in 1930 and six years later it moved into a rectory. In World War II, 130 citizens were killed, some by suicide, shooting or fighting. The Red Army looted a large number of shops on April 19 and 20, 1945; there was arson . Numerous buildings were damaged, the town church burned down completely. In the course of the administrative reform in 1952, the new Calau district in the Cottbus district of the GDR comprised a total of 81 communities, including Vetschau and Lübbenau . On January 30, 1956, the city council inaugurated the polyclinic on Karl-Marx-Strasse. On December 24, 1958, the first German television program was broadcast from the previous building of today's telecommunications tower . On May 31, 1959, the Young Fire Protection Workers' group was founded , the forerunner of today's youth fire brigade. In the 1960s and 1970s there was brisk construction activity in the city. In 1961, work began on building the Neustadt in Otto-Nuschke-Strasse; in 1977 and 1978 for the residential area sunny side in the city center. 402 new apartments were built by 1980. The New Apostolic congregation was founded in 1982 and acquired a plot of land in Schlossstrasse in 1985 and was able to dedicate a room there for the divine service after three years of construction. On September 14, 1985, the city fathers gave the go-ahead for the new construction of the television tower, which was put into operation in April 1987. In the course of the turnaround there were numerous consultations and prayers for peace in the town church. The citizens elected Herbert Dönau as the first mayor after reunification. The contacts made to Viersen on February 6, 1990 led to the conclusion of a town twinning agreement on October 3, 1991 . With the district reform in 1993, Calau lost its function as a district town with effect from March 31, 1993. Since that date it has belonged to the Oberspreewald-Lausitz district . In 1996 the city renamed the previously unnamed grammar school "Carl-Anwandter-Gymnasium".
21st century
In 2002, Calau and thirteen other cities took 3rd place in the federal urban redevelopment competition . In 2003 Calau was named the sportiest city in Brandenburg.

Historical monuments
- War memorial for the Calauers who fell in the Wars of Unification in 1864, 1866 and 1870/71. On Sunday, September 1st, 1878, the monument was ceremoniously unveiled at the old cemetery. Nowadays it is on the east side of the district house.
- The foundation stone for the war memorial for the sons of the city of Calau who died in World War I was laid on May 5, 1931. The memorial was made from clay that was extracted in the Calau area and then burned into clinker. At the top of the pyramidal monument sat an eagle with wings attached, which was made from Westphalian dolomite . Unfortunately, the monument has not been preserved.

Girls fountain
The girls' fountain, created by the Dresden sculptor Ernst Sauer , has been located in Cottbusser Strasse since 1984 .

Boulder of the twin town Viersen, natural monuments
A boulder weighing around 10 tons and around two meters high has stood next to the Sparkasse since October 11, 2003 . It is a gift from the twin town Viersen, but geologically speaking it comes from Lusatia. The stone was designed by the sculptor Anatol Herzfeld on the occasion of a partnership meeting together with one of his students as an art object. To mark the 20-year partnership between the cities, craftsmen put up a board with further information next to the boulder on June 17, 2011.

Museums

In addition, there has been a vintage car museum since 2006, the Mobile World of the East .

Witzerundweg
The Witzerundweg is a tourist educational trail in Calau that leads through the city center on 25 boards. The boards are set up at historically significant, usually listed buildings, touristic points, but also private buildings. The tables are accompanied by a shoemaker boy, who is supposed to remind of the past tradition of shoe-making in the village and serves as the town's mascot . The bronze figures were created by the Rheiner sculptor Werner Bruning . For example, there is a board with a cobbler boy in front of the town hall's fountain . It is reminiscent of the historical water pipes from the 14th and 15th centuries, when the city used wooden pipes to channel the water into eight pipe boxes , from which the citizens supplied themselves with drinking water. They became superfluous with the construction of an iron pipeline in 1888, but were retained as a fire water reserve on the market square. In 2000 and 2001 it was converted into a fountain. The joke is: “Where is the largest marketplace in the world? In Calau, of course, because it extends from the cellar to the sun! (Ratskeller on the south side, Hotel zur Sonne on the north side) ”(of the town hall).
