Location of Dahlenwarsleben in Saxony-Anhalt |
Dahlenwarsleben including the district Gersdorf is a place in the municipality of Niedere Börde in the district of Börde in Saxony-Anhalt .
geography
The village of Dahlenwarsleben is located on the edge of the Hohe Börde and is also known for the Felsenberg , an approximately 6-hectare wooded elevation of 107 m.
history
The local area was settled several thousand years ago. The Mühlenberg, which was demolished in 1973, was a huge barrow, near the Dahlenwarsleber trephine skulls were found. This evidence of early skull opening is in the Magdeburg Cultural History Museum .
Dahlenwarsleben was first mentioned on October 11, 1121, but the founding of the village has to be assumed much sooner, because some places in the area were mentioned earlier. When it first appeared in a document, the village was related to the Lorenz Monastery in Calbe and the Augustinian Canons of St. Lorenz in Schöningen . After 1200, the Lorenz monastery "Our dear women" in Magdeburg and the Michaelstein monastery near Blankenburg gained greater influence.
Landlord and court lord in the 14th century was the Archbishop of Magdeburg, who pledged the village to the cathedral capital in 1419 and 1428.
The Thirty Years' War brought much hardship and misery in all the surrounding areas. In 1628, in the middle of building up the aftermath of the war, a plague broke out that claimed 101 lives. At this time there were already 38 houses. There were difficult times again during the Wars of Liberation in 1813/14, when the place was besieged by French soldiers.
The village experienced an upswing after the separation around 1840, when around 3,500 acres of fields belonged to the community corridor and a sugar factory was built due to the increased sugar beet cultivation, which produced until 1932. At the same time, the village image was given a new reputation, because the many small farmhouses disappeared due to the prosperity of the farmers and spacious villa-like buildings emerged. Around 1864 Dahlenwarsleben had 1866 inhabitants and 100 houses. A cholera epidemic took another 50 residents away in 1868, which meant that the old cemetery at the church was closed and a new one on Dodeleber Weg was put into operation in 1880.
Around 1880 two new school buildings were built, one at the church and the other in Peterstrasse (Kanterberg).
With the increased cultivation of chicory in the region, a machine was created after an outdated kiln that worked until 1945.
As a result of the global economic crisis , the sugar factory ceased operations in 1932, as did many craft businesses.
The inhabitants then experienced the Second World War with anti-aircraft units and spotlights. In January 1945 bombs fell on the outskirts. At the end of the war, the community had almost 2,000 inhabitants, including over 600 evacuees from the Rhineland and Magdeburg.
On July 1, 1950, the previously independent community of Gersdorf was incorporated.
Dahlenwarsleben was incorporated into the newly formed community of Niedere Börde on January 1, 2004 through the voluntary merger with seven other communities and was previously a member of the Niedere Börde administrative community .
Economy and Infrastructure
Dahlenwarsleben is mainly characterized by agriculture and small and medium-sized businesses.
Local facilities are: "Astrid Lindgren" primary school, "Hoppetosse" daycare center, "Zwergenhaus" daycare center.
There are two day-care centers with a total of 280 places (0 years to the beginning of school), a kindergarten with a total of 40 places (from 0 to 4 years) and a day care center with 240 places (from 3 years to the start of school). The former secondary school was transformed into a primary school in 2013 and renovated. The kindergarten is located on Peterstraße behind the church. There is also a sports hall with a sports field on the property of the primary school. Before the secondary school was refurbished, the primary school was in a different building. The building gradually became too small and had to be enlarged. In 2014 the old primary school was renovated and converted into a day care center. The two institutions share a schoolyard.
coat of arms
The coat of arms was approved on January 10, 1997 by the Magdeburg Regional Council.
Blazon : "In green a silver lamb of God with a ring-shaped golden nimbus and a double-sided, red crossed silver flag on a golden cross."
The municipality colors are silver (white) - green.
The “God's lamb” ( Agnus Dei ) is already on a community seal from 1778. Since the lamb is also intended to indicate the agricultural character of the community, the shield ground is tinged green.
Culture and sights

The structural center of the community is the St. Lamberti Church. The tower was built in the 11th century. The first nave, destroyed in the Thirty Years War , was rebuilt in 1639.
In 1849 the old church had to be demolished and the nave widened by two meters on both sides. This means that the style of the tower and the ship is different. Since then, three new bells have been hanging in the tower, the largest of which has a diameter of 170 cm.
In the church there is an organ made by Alfred Führer .
In the cultural and sporting field, the plucked orchestra with its artistic quality and youth work, as well as the sports club, have been doing exemplary work for decades.
