history

The village of Casel was first mentioned in 1447 under the name Koßle . The place name is derived from the Sorbian kózoł , which means billy goat .

According to the topographical-statistical overview of the administrative district of Frankfurt ad O. from 1844, there were 40 residential buildings in Casel that year, in which 312 residents lived. There was a sheep farm and a brick factory in the village. The Casel manor was owned by a Friederike Louise Mesenberger from Dresden . At that time the place was parish off to Wüstenhain . In 1867 Casel had 269 inhabitants in 40 residential buildings, in addition to the sheep and brickworks there was also a windmill and a water mill (tap mill) . The tap mill had seven inhabitants.

Until the end of the 19th century, Casel was a predominantly Sorbian-speaking village. Arnošt Muka counted a population of 219 for his statistics on the Lusatian Sorbs , of which 210 were Sorbs (96%). After that, however, the proportion of Sorbian residents fell sharply, and Casel no longer appears in Ernst Tschernik's statistics from 1956.

At the Congress of Vienna in 1815, after the defeat of the Kingdom of Saxony, it was decided to assign territory to the Kingdom of Prussia , which also affected Casel. After that, the municipality was in the district of Calau in the administrative district of Frankfurt in the province of Brandenburg . On January 1, 1926, what was then Göritz b. Alt Döbern incorporated into Casel. After the end of the Second World War, Casel became part of the Soviet occupation zone and later the GDR . During the district reform on July 25, 1952, the community came to the Cottbus-Land district in the Cottbus district . On January 1, 1958, the neighboring Illmersdorf was incorporated into Casel. After the fall of the Berlin Wall , the Cottbus-Land district was renamed the Cottbus district . In the course of the Brandenburg district reform in 1993 , the municipality of Casel came to the newly founded Spree-Neisse district and was administered there by the Drebkau (Niederlausitz) office. On December 31, 2001, the Casel was incorporated into the city of Drebkau and the Drebkau (Niederlausitz) office was dissolved.
