Caminchen , Kamjeńki in Lower Sorbian , is a district of the Neu Zauche community in the Dahme-Spreewald district (Brandenburg). From the Middle Ages until 1674 it belonged to the Neu Zauche rule, from 1674 to the Neu Zauche office , which was dissolved in 1874. Caminchen was incorporated into the Neu Zauche community in 2003 and has been part of Neu Zauche ever since.

Geographical location

Caminchen is located about 12 km east-northeast of Lübben (Spreewald) , about 6 km northwest of Straupitz and about 16 km west-southwest of Lieberose . The district borders in the north on Klein Leine (district of the Märkische Heide community ), in the northeast on Sacrow (district of the community Spreewaldheide ), in the southeast on the district of Neu Zauche and in the southwest and west on Briesensee (district of the community Neu Zauche) . The place can be reached via a small connecting road from Wußwerk and Neu Zauche and Sacrow.

The Klein Leiner Fließ crosses the district from northwest to southeast. At the Pechhütte residential area, a ditch flows towards it from the south. To the east of the town center, another ditch coming from the south is connected to the river. The highest point (approx. 75 m) is the northern and eastern flanks of a 80.9 m high hill, the summit of which, however, is already on the Briesensee district. The lowest point is the Klein Leiner Fließ when you leave the district at about 52 m.

history

Caminchen is mentioned for the first time in a document as early as 1347. In the first mention, the name appears as Kamenig . The name is derived from the Lower Sorbian kamjeń = stone, perhaps even the diminutive of kamjeńk. According to Rudolf Lehmann (historical local dictionary), the original form of the village is unclear.

On February 22, 1347, Hans , Fritz , Rudolph and Berchd , the sons of Hentze, received the feudal letter from Ludwig I, "the Brandenburger" , the margrave of Brandenburg and Lusatia, about the court to the breeding with all accessories, so the villages of Zuche (= Neu Zauche), Wozwirch (= Wußwerk ), the Alte Niewe (= Alt Zauche), Kamenig (= Caminchen) and Sacrow . At the time of his first mention, Caminchen was already part of the Zauche rule (later also called Neu Zauche rule). According to the feudal letter of April 25, 1420, the brothers Konrad, Joachim, Johann, Dietrich and Heinrich von Ihlow owned a quarter of the Neu Zauche estate, probably as a pledge or for repurchase, because in 1422 Hans von der Zauche was (again) the owner of the entire estate. In 1439 six brothers von der Zauche Heinrich, Hans, Friedrich, Titze, Günther and Caspar, presumably the sons of Hans, sold the rule Zauche to the (later) Mark Brandenburg chancellor Heinze von Kracht . On October 7, 1439 he received the feudal letter about Neu Zauche, Wusswerk, Alt Zauche, Radensdorf, Caminchen, Sacro, Waldow, Briesen and Goyatz. But even before 1477 Heinze von Kracht sold the rule to Hans von Clumen (Chlumen or Klumen), who was governor in Lower Lusatia that year. In 1505 the rule of Neu Zauche came from Siegmund von Chlumen to Werner von der Schulenburg , who was wealthy in the Uckermark and Pomerania ( Amt Löcknitz and Penkun ). Werner was succeeded by his son Jacob (I.) and in 1541 his son Georg V. Georg von der Schulenburg died in 1560 without heirs and his property fell to his cousin Joachim II von der Schulenburg. Joachim II died in 1594; he was followed by his son Richard III. But Richard III died on November 25, 1600. von der Schulenburg quite surprisingly in Pieskow . Heir was Joachim VII von der Schulenburg, who on February 27, 1601 received the feudal letter for all goods inherited from his father in Niederlausitz. The property was heavily in debt at that time, which is why he bought parts of his property. In 1619 Joachim VII von der Schulenburg died. At first his widow took over the property. Since the property was still heavily in debt, the creditors had the lords of Lübbenau and Neu Zauche ceded.

On February 28, 1623, the rule of Neu Zauche with the villages of Wußwerk, Alt Zauche, Radensdorf, Briesen, Sacro, Waldow, Caminchen and Goyatz passed to the state elder of Lower Lusatia, Jobst von Bredow, who also became the new lord of Caminchen. But Jobst von Bredow died on February 26, 1626 and the reign of Neu Zauche now passed to his son Achim von Bredow, who in 1630 received the feudal letter over the reign of Neu Zauche. Since the purchase price had not yet been paid in full, the Bredow heirs pledged the Neu Zauche estate to Ulrich von Wolfersdorf, Achim von Bredow's brother-in-law. In 1651 Achim von Bredow finally sold the Neu Zauche estate to Ulrich von Wolfersdorf for 42,000 thalers. After the death of Ulrich von Wolfersdorf on September 8, 1665, his sons Jan Ulrich and his stepbrother Ulrich Gottfried received the feudal letter for the inherited property on September 17, 1666. The reign of Neu Zauche fell to Ulrich Gottfried von Wolfersdorf. Although the Neu Zauche dominion had long been referred to in the documents as a dominion and otherwise met all the criteria of a sovereignty, the owner of the Neu Zauche dominion had neither a seat nor a vote in the gentry's curia according to the Landtag order of 1669. Possibly the rule was already before the fall to the sovereign, because Ulrich Gottfried was also heavily in debt. In 1674 the Neu Zauche estate was forcibly auctioned off. The then sovereign Duke Christian I of Saxony-Merseburg bought it for 30,000 thalers and converted it into a sovereign office. In the early days, the Neu Zauche office was leased, later it was administered by officials, the administrative seat was in Lübben. At the end of the 18th century it was administered together with the Lübben Office, but was always treated as a separate office. From around 1811 the Neu Zauche office is called the Rentamt, i. H. the office or the bailiff no longer managed the works themselves, but was only responsible for collecting pensions. The Neu Zauche office should, according to Beck et al. Dissolved in 1874. Heinrich Berghaus wrote about the “former Neu Zauche office” as early as 1855.

According to the Lieberose / Oberspreewald office's website, the village is said to have originally been located east of the “nearby” river, surrounded by dense forest, swamp and moor. During the Thirty Years War , the place is said to have been completely destroyed at this point and is said to have been rebuilt at its current location. There is no evidence of the relocation of the village after the Thirty Years War. The village center is a soil monument, the protective ground is the village center from the Middle Ages and modern times. 1708 a farmer who lived nine Kossäten and a Büdner in Caminchen. In 1718 there were eight cottages, the estimate for the village was 750 guilders. In 1723 the population is given as three farmers and nine kossas.

During the Seven Years' War , Frederick the Great set up camp at Caminchen (right wing) and Waldow (left wing and headquarters) on August 31, 1759 . The Austrian General Hadick had his camp near Lamsfeld on August 30, 1759 . But there were no significant battles.

The Schmettauschen map from 1767/87 shows two tar ovens near Caminchen. A tar stove was west of the town center. In the case of the tar kiln drawn to the northeast of the village, it is unclear whether it was located in the district of Caminchen at all, since no district boundaries are drawn. This tar stove is not mentioned (anymore) around 1800. There are also no known tar ovens in the neighboring towns in question. A mistake with the Schmettauschen card? In 1791 three farmers, nine cottagers and one housekeeper lived in the village. There was a forester's house, "in which the repentant forester lives" (Heidereiter = head forester). The pitch furnace was given on a long lease . In 1795 four free cottagers are mentioned (new settlers?). In 1809 there were four “Ganzbauern” (= full farmers), nine “Ganzkossät” and 15 cottagers or Büdner living in Caminchen. The tar furnace (now also called pitch furnace) west of the village had four residential buildings and 21 residents in 1818. In the village itself there were 25 residential buildings and 165 inhabitants. The place already had a school. In 1832 the farmers' lass property was converted into hereditary property. In 1840, 246 people lived in 35 residential buildings. On the Urmes table sheet 4050 Straupitz from 1846 there is a windmill to the east of the village. It was located at about 36 Caminchener Dorfstrasse. In 1850, eleven of the 263 inhabitants spoke Sorbian. During the great floods in the summer of 1854, 200 acres of meadows were flooded in the surrounding lowlands. The damage in Caminchen was estimated at 500 thalers. In 1861 there was a school or school building in Caminchen and a forester's house. The forester's house was roughly in the area of ​​Caminchener Dorfstrasse 1. In 1864, next to the forester's house and windmill, an “establishment” was named. The Caminchener Pechhütte is also known as the "former Theerofen-Etablissement". There was now only one residential building in which 12 residents lived. Pechhütte is now a residential area in the Caminchen district. In 1864 the place had 34 residential buildings and 306 inhabitants with Pechhütte. In 1867 there was no one among the more than 300 inhabitants who could speak Sorbian.

In 1870 the firewood rents due to the landowners in Caminchen and other villages of the Neu Zauche office in Börnichener Forst and the Sacrow-Caminchener Heide were replaced. 1870 a tavern is occupied, the owner was the innkeeper Lowa.

Political history

Caminchen belonged to the Lower Lusatian Krummspree district of the Electorate, later the Kingdom of Saxony. After the transition from Niederlausitz to Prussia, the district was now called Kreis Lübben. With the transfer of the court from office to the district court of Lübben in 1849, Caminchen became an independent rural community within the district of Lübben. It remained in the district of Lübben even during the district reforms of 1950 and 1952, which in 1990 was renamed the district of Lübben . In 1992, Caminchen formed the Straupitz office together with nine other communities in the Lübben district. In 1993 the Lübben district was dissolved and merged with the Königs Wusterhausen and Luckau districts to form the Dahme-Spreewald district. Effective December 20, 1994, the Straupitz office was renamed Oberspreewald office . As part of the municipal reform in the state of Brandenburg on October 26, 2003, the municipalities of Briesensee and Caminchen were incorporated into the municipality of Neu Zauche. Since then, Caminchen has been part of the Neu Zauche community. The Office Oberspreewald was in 2003 with the Office Lieberose to lieberose / oberspreewald put together.

Caminchen has a local advisory board consisting of three members. The mayor in Caminchen is currently (2014) Mr. Eginhard Dehlan.

Church history

Caminchen has no church and, as far as is known, was always parish in Neu Zauche. It still belongs to the Protestant parish Neu Zauche today.
