Diedrichshagen is a district of the municipality of Weitenhagen and a former municipality in the district of Vorpommern-Greifswald. Thanks to its proximity to the city of Greifswald and its convenient location, the town has almost doubled its population since 1990.

geography

Diedrichshagen is around eight kilometers southeast of the center of Greifswald. The place lies on a slightly undulating surface from 12 to 34 meters above sea ​​level .

Diedrichshagen is located in the area of ​​the clay slabs of the Western Pomerania lowlands. At the end of the Ice Age, melting glaciers deposited another two to eight meter thick layers of sand (parts of the so-called Franzburger Staffel) on a multi-layered ground made of marl with intermediate sands. Locally, flowing meltwater left gullies facing south, which were later mossed (today grassland or moor forest).

Today, agricultural areas and forests occupy almost the same size of the municipality. Most of the forest areas were cleared from the Middle Ages to the beginning of the 19th century and only then reforested, but some areas (e.g. south of Guest ) have always been forest.

history

Diedrichshagen was first mentioned in a document in 1271 as thom Diderichshagen , when Duke Barnim I confirmed the possession of six Hufen in this place to the Eldena monastery. He probably confirms a gift from Count Konrad von Gützkow to the monastery. The names Dyetricheshagen (1280), Diderikeshaghen (1285), Dyderykeshaghen (1347), Diderkeshaghen (1462) and finally Diedrichshagen in 1630 are also documented from the following period .

The place is a typical German clearing settlement. As with many other places, the name goes back to the founder of the settlement (the locator ) during the German eastward expansion .

In 1275 and 1280 the monastery received two more hooves from the von Behr family, so the monastery already had 17 hooves from Dietrichshagen according to a document from Bishop Hermann. In 1282 another gift with four hooves and in 1320 with ten hooves from the Counts of Gützkow from Dietrichshagen for the monastery was added.

The village belonged to the monastery "Hilda" ( Monastery Eldena ), it set up an agricultural farm in the village. After the secularization of 1534 it was first a ducal domain, but from 1634 the dukes handed it over to the University of Greifswald . This leased the Vorwerk, also known as the sheep farm or estate, so that it was used to finance the facility.

In the 19th century, Diedrichshagen belonged to the parish of Groß Kiesow . Diedrichshagen had 129 inhabitants in 1865, there was a school, 7 residential buildings and 12 farm buildings in the village. A sheep population of 1200 animals was also mentioned.

Gut Diedrichshagen was settled between the First and Second World War. In the 1930s several small farms emerged. The land reform was therefore only limited in Diedrichshagen (large farmers and Nazi expropriations are possible).

In 1887/88 a municipal waterworks was built for Greifswald north of Diedrichshagen; hereafter the northernmost street in the municipality is called "Am Wasserwerk". A forester's house belonging to the village was built around 1900 and is located in the forest area northeast of Diedrichshagen.

In the district of Diedrichshagen, the former school (today the community center) and the farms from the 1930s are well preserved. After 1990 numerous houses of various styles were built between these homesteads.

The headquarters of the Bodden Coast Water and Wastewater Association (ZWAB), responsible for the areas of the offices of Züssow, Landhagen and Lubmin, is located in the village .

Since 2011, the NEL natural gas pipeline from Lubmin to the west has been running close to Diedrichshagen from northeast to southwest .

With effect from May 26, 2019, Diedrichshagen was incorporated into the neighboring municipality of Weitenhagen to the west. The last mayor was Detlef Neumann.

Local area

After the Thirty Years War , this part of Pomerania belonged to Sweden from 1648 to 1815 and then came to Prussia.

As early as 1952, small cooperatives (LPG) emerged in both districts, which soon merged. As a result of the formation of ever larger agricultural complexes, the places Diedrichshagen and Guest belonged to the two LPG plant production and animal production in Groß Kiesow in the 1970s and 1980s.

Up until the 1980s, around half of the population was employed in agriculture, the others mostly in the nearby city of Greifswald. Today only a few people work in the privatized agriculture, most of them, if not unemployed, commute to Greifswald, some work in local trade and service companies.

The place is predominantly agricultural. Dietrichshagen itself is the location of commercial enterprises.

traffic

The federal highway 109 runs through the local area . The federal autobahn 20 can be reached via the Gützkow junction about 20 kilometers away .

The Angermünde – Stralsund railway line touches the area in the west; the nearest train station is in Greifswald, a stop in Groß Kiesow. Shortly before Guest, the section of the line to the Lubmin NPP , which was built in the 1970s and runs through the local area, branches off from the Berlin – Stralsund railway line . Since 1990, the section of the route has only been rarely used, but is of greater importance due to the connection to the new port of Lubmin (since 2009) and the new branch to the Vierower port (since 2012).

From 1897 to 1945, the small railway line of the small railway company Greifswald-Wolgast (KGW) ran north of the B 109 . Diedrichshagen had a stop at today's gas station.
