Until 1990

All communities belonged to the Brandenburg district of Prenzlau until June 30, 1950 . On July 1, 1950, four communities (Güterberg, Milow, Wilsickow, Wismar) moved to the Mecklenburg district of Pasewalk .

On July 25, 1952, the states of the GDR were dissolved by law and 14 districts were created. As a result, all of these communities were assigned to the Neubrandenburg district . With one exception, the places now belonged to the newly created Strasburg district . Only Nechlin moved to the Pasewalk district.

After 1990

On June 1, 1992, the Lübbenow (Uckermark) office was founded in the Strasburg district in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania , to which the current districts of Uckerland were assigned. On August 1, 1992, the district of Prenzlau came through a referendum and moved to the state of Brandenburg.

The community of Uckerland was created on December 31, 2001 from the merger of the previously independent communities of Fahrenholz, Güterberg, Jagow, Lemmersdorf, Lübbenow, Milow, Nechlin, Trebenow, Wilsickow, Wismar and Wolfshagen. Until then, these were municipalities belonging to the Lübbenow office, which was dissolved on December 31, 2001 in the course of the reorganization of the municipality in the state of Brandenburg. The name of the municipality Uckerland was laid down in the municipal reorganization contract of November 22, 2001.

History of the districts

Fahrholz and Lindhorst

Fahrholz first documented mention comes from 1287. In 1340 there was a mention under the name vorholt , which means pine forest . The village was abandoned at an unknown time, possibly before 1375, and was only rebuilt later. It is documented again from 1500 southeast of the original settlement. The ruins of a stone church on the railway line to Strasburg still bear witness to the first village complex . In 1756/1757 the village was called the Rittervorwerk, around 1800 it was designated as a noble estate , which until 1945 belonged to the Menkin estate as Winterfeldt's property . After the Second World War, the land belonging to the village was expropriated and distributed. Of the 477 hectares, 168 hectares went to 28 landless farmers and farm workers, 170 hectares to 16 resettlers , and 35 hectares became community property. During this time the population of the village grew rapidly and one year after the end of the war it was 405 inhabitants.

Lindhorst is first mentioned in a document from 1375 as Lynthorst . The name is interpreted as a village on a lime-tree hill in the meadow area .

Güterberg and Carolinenthal

Güterberg was first mentioned in a document in 1608 as Guetterberch .
Carolinenthal was first mentioned in a document in 1745. The original name Mücken-Krug was probably a derisive name for a pitcher that was filled with mosquitos. The name Guterbocksches Vorwerk has also been handed down. From 1818 the village had its current name. Presumably a family member of the owner was the namesake.

Hetzdorf, Gneisenau, Kleisthöhe, Lemmersdorf and Schlepkow

Hetzdorf's first documentary mention dates back to 1286. The name of the place is derived from the personal name Hezel , a short form of Hermann . The early Gothic village church of Hetzdorf from the 13th century is well worth seeing .
Schlepkows first documented mention as Slepecow comes from 1321. The Slavic name comes from the personal name Slepek , which means blind .

Jagow was the ancestral seat of the von Jagow family of the same name .

Lübbenow was first mentioned in a document at the beginning of the 14th century. The classicist manor house Lübbenow was built between 1812 and 1826 and was rebuilt several times and expanded around 1923/27. The property was u. a. owned by the von Stülpnagel -Dargitz family until 1945.

Trebenow

Trebenow's first written mention comes from 1321. The place name is derived from the personal name Treben .
Bandelow was first mentioned in 1312 and Werbelow in 1343.

Wilsickow was first mentioned in a document in 1375. The renovation of the 13th century church was completed in 1992.

Wismar was first mentioned in a document in 1316.
The name is derived from Wismaria Ort des Vysěmêr or Visemêr , the Slavic locator of the place.

Blazon : "In the red shield, sprinkled with eleven golden seeds (balls), a four-petalled golden rapeseed flower with clusters and four sepals."

The coat of arms was designed by the municipal heraldist Jörg Mantzsch and, following a decision by the local council on March 31, 2013, was included in the approval process. The symbolism in the coat of arms refers to the rapeseed cultivation that has been practiced in the region for generations by showing a rapeseed blossom with eleven grains scattered in the center. The rape blossom symbolizes the blossoming community, the eleven grains embody the eleven districts, which are represented equally in the coat of arms, ie independently of the different size of the town and the population.

The colors of the community are: yellow-red
