Densow on the Urmes table sheet 2846 Gandenitz from 1825

Densow is a district of the unofficial city of Templin in the Uckermark district ( Brandenburg ). The place, founded in the Middle Ages, fell desolate as early as the 2nd half of the 14th century. Around 1700 a tar furnace was set up in the district, which was followed by an official dairy farm in 1736 and a colony in 1749 , from which today's village of Densow developed. Densow was an independent municipality until 2003. The districts of Annenwalde , Alt Placht and Neu Placht as well as the residential area Vorwerk Annenwalde also belong to Densow today . In 2013 the district had 270 inhabitants.

To the southwest of the village is the former Tangersdorf military training area , which is part of the Kleine Schorfheide nature reserve .

history

Densow was first documented in 1307 ( Densouue ). The name is unclear. Wauer discusses the possibility of a connection to the water body name Densbek and Densbach, and derived from this, the place name Dens. Densow would then have been based on other places with -ow ending. In 1327 a knight Erckenbert was the first known owner of the village, who in that year passed it to Otto v. Barsdorf and his brother-in-law Otto sold Lantrider zu Templin. In 1375 Coppe Barstorff and his father were the sole owners of the two villages, which they sold to the Glutzer family in 1376.

“Densow 40 mansi. Quilibet dat 6 solidos et non plus. Hans Groten, civis in Templyn, has pactum super 2 mansos. De hiis (mansis) 4 sunt in possessione, habentes libertatem ad triennium. Ista villa totaliter est desolata et pertinet Coppeken Barstorp et suo patruo. Prope villam iacet stagnum nomine Densow, super quod sunt 3 tractiones say. "

- Schultze, Landbuch, p. 274

Already in 1375 the place was almost completely deserted. Four Hufen were still cultivated, but these were exempt from taxes for three years. 6 shillings ( solidos ) interest had to be paid for each hoof . The owner of the village was Coppeken Barstorp and his father. The Templin citizen Hans Groten had the lease ( pactum ) of two Hufen. In the Densowsee 3 yarn trains were allowed to be caught. In 1376 the von Bardorfs sold Densow to the Glutzer family, who in 1387 initially sold it for repurchase, and in 1392 finally to the Zehdenick monastery . With the secularization of the monastery, the place was now administered by the Zehdenick Office. In 1558 the Feldmark came first as a deposit, then finally in 1577 to the v. Trott in Himmelpfort and thus to the rule Badingen and Himmelpfort . The field mark Densow was z. T. used, because 1574 the field is called Densow. The Feldmark was completely forested, only on the Densowsee there was some fishing. In 1580 the Densow field belonged to the logging of the Badingen and Himmelpfort rulers. In 1711, the Teerschweler of the Badingen office to the Lychener Mühle had to pay a meal. However, it is unclear whether it was actually the later named Teerschweler on the Densow. In 1727 Friedrich Peterrahn (also Petram) was Teerschweler on the Densow. The tar furnace was not in the old village on Densowsee, but about 1.3 km north of it. At the old village location, the Badingen office's tar ovens were leased in 1729, including the tar oven on the Densow, to which 158 acres belonged. In 1736 the office dairy on the Densow had 138½ acres of arable land, 19 acres of meadow and 116 square rods of garden land . 250 sheep, pigs and poultry were kept. In 1749 three colonists from Cologne and Württemberg were assigned to the tar furnace country. The three colonists and the Teerschweler were each given 75 acres of field at Hufschlag, 2 acres of arable land, 16 acres of meadow plus garden land and courtyard, together each 94 acres and 60 square rods of land. In 1761 a schoolmaster, a shepherd and eight Büdner settled in the new town of Densow. The schoolmaster received 23½ acres of land, the shepherd and the eight Büdner three acres each. In total, the agricultural area of ​​the new village covers 460 acres.

In 1753 the councilor and sub-tenant of the Green Glassworks in Zechlin, Johann Friedrich Zimmermann, presented a plan according to which he intended to build a porcelain factory for the production of milky-white glass and a green glassworks on the Densow field. This was created in 1754 on the site of the old village of Densow and called Annenwalde .

In 1757 four hereditary interest farmers lived in the new colony of Densow, including the Teerschweler J. Stabe, nine Büdner (including a tailor, six day laborers, the schoolmaster and the shepherd). The tar stove was still in use. 1775 lived in the colony in addition to the four farmers 17 Büdner and other residents, a total of 98 people. After that, development stagnated somewhat. In 1790 there were only nine Büdner and three residents. There were 16 fireplaces in the village; in 1801 there were 15 fireplaces. After that, the village grew slowly. In 1840 there were 17 houses in the village, in 1860 19 houses. In addition, 30 farm buildings were registered for this year, including a tar furnace and a wind grain mill. In 1861 there was already an inn in the village. Next to it is recorded: an agent, a merchant, a tar stove with a worker, a miller, a bricklayer, a master shoemaker and a master tailor. In the 1890s, the railway line between Templin and Lychen was built across the northern municipality. The Neu Placht station was built near Neu Placht. In 1899 there was a railway accident 2 km north of Neu Placht. A locomotive derailed and fell down a 6 to 7 m high embankment. There were only nine passengers in the three passenger cars, most of whom were only slightly injured. The staff also suffered injuries. The collision caused a small fire due to the heating in one of the wagons, but it was quickly extinguished. The next morning the route was cleared again. However, the locomotive was not recovered until days later and pulled to Eberswalde for repairs. In 1900 there were 18 houses in Densow. This year the Densow forestry was established. The windmill stood (around 1900) northeast of the town center, a little north of the main road towards Neu Placht. In 1928 the Neu Placht manor district was incorporated into Densow. In 1929, parts of the dissolved Alt Placht forest district were also added. In 1931 there were 34 residential buildings in Densow. The community included the Alt Placht Forsthaus Densow, Neu Placht and Neu Placht train station. The district was 1208 ha.

In 1958 a LPG type I was founded in Neu Placht with nine members and 68 hectares of usable area. In 1960 the LPG Type I in Densow had 34 members and 285 hectares of usable area. It was connected to the LPG Annenwalde in 1972. The other LPG Type I Densow-Neu Placht had 19 members in 1972 on 72 hectares of usable area. It was converted into a Type III LPG in 1969.

Political Affiliation

In 1376 the Glutzer family owned the village, who initially sold it to the Zehdenick monastery in 1387 and finally in 1392 . In 1541 the monastery was secularized and became sovereign. 1558 the field mark Densow came to the rule Badingen and Himmelpfort . In 1727 this rule fell back to the state rulership as a settled fiefdom and was converted into an office ( Badingen Office ). At that time it was in the Uckermark district . In 1828 the Badingen office was dissolved and merged with the Zehdenick office . In 1872 this was also dissolved and the tasks assigned to the Templin district. With the district reform of 1952, the district boundaries of the Uuckmarket districts were re-cut. However, Densow remained in the new district of Templin . In 1992 Densow merged with 13 other, mostly also very small communities to form the Templin-Land office . After the fall of the Wall in 1993, the Templin district was merged with the Prenzlau and Angermünde districts to form the Uckermark district. On October 26, 2003, Densow, together with the municipalities of Beutel, Gandenitz, Gollin, Groß Dölln, Grunewald, Hammelspring, Herzfelde, Klosterwalde, Petznick, Röddelin, Storkow and Vietmannsdorf, was incorporated into the city of Templin by law. The Templin-Land office was dissolved at the same time. Since then, Densow has been part of the city of Templin.

Church affiliation

The Evangelical Church Community of Densow is cured by the parish in Lychen. The Lychen parish is part of the Upper Havelland Evangelical Church District .

Monuments and sights

The list of monuments of the state of Brandenburg for the district of Uckermark shows only one monument:

• Hauptstrasse 3: a residential building with three farm buildings

The prayer house in Densow, in which the school and prayer house were originally united in one building, is not a monument, but is definitely interesting and worth seeing.
