history

Manor with remains of Emersleben Castle

Sophienheim around 1900

St. Petri Church with the fountain built for the 850th anniversary

In a document dated October 18, 1136, the Halberstädter Sankt Paulsstift in Amersleve owns superior and inferior (the upper and lower village) land. In 1147 a family of the "nobles of Amerslove" was first mentioned. The church “St. Petri ”was described in a document in 1187 as the mother church of the church in Niendorf. In 1359, Bishop Ludwig von Halberstadt pledged Emersleben Castle to Arnold Stamer and his son for life. In 1481 the Dorstadt brothers took over the estate and the village of Emersleben.

In a document from 1558 a brewery and a drinking house (tavern) are reported. During the Thirty Years War, Wallenstein moved into Halberstadt and the surrounding area in 1625. Friedrich Christoph von Stedern became the new lord of the castle in 1661. In 1667 there was a fish dispute and cattle robbery between Emersleben and Groß Quenstedt. In 1686 "Sankt Petri" got a Welsche bonnet . In 1734 two guards were killed in a "beer dispute" between the community and Gut Emersleben. Count Wilhelm and Baron Heinrich von Borcke took over the estate in 1788 and leased it. In 1806 Napoleon's army entered Halberstadt. There was again great war burdens and suffering for the community. The first school was built in 1835. A shooting club was founded in 1851.

In 1862 a second school was built (later - council of the community). The brick factory was built in 1868. A first ring kiln was inaugurated there in 1872. In 1883 a trichinosis epidemic spread . Out of 260 sick residents, 52 died. A post office was founded , which was later converted into a post office . In 1886 a telephone station could also be set up. The Sophienkrankenhaus , which today is known as Sophienheim, is an institution for the sensory impaired and is sponsored by the deaconess mother house, Cecilienstift Halberstadt, and was built in 1896. The following year, residents founded the Emersleben volunteer fire department . In 1905 the place was connected to the electrical overland network.

On September 30, 1928, the manor district of Emersleben was united with the rural community of Emersleben.

After the end of the Second World War , the large estates were expropriated and the so-called democratic land reform was carried out. The Emersleben estate was converted into a national estate . On July 1, 1950, Emersleben was incorporated into the community of Groß Quenstedt.

In 1959 the LPG Type III "Freedom" was founded, and in 1960 the LPG Type I "Peace". In 1975 Emersleben and Groß Quenstedt became part of the newly founded Wegeleben community association. In 1981 it burned in the restaurant "Zum Dorfkrug".

Emersleben regained its independence as a municipality on June 13, 1984. In 1984 and 1985, the place took first place in the performance comparison of the cities and municipalities of the Halberstadt district . On the occasion of the 850th anniversary, a well was erected in front of the then council of the municipality in 1986.

On the day the GDR was taken over by the Federal Republic of Germany, October 3, 1990, 755 people lived in Emersleben. In 1990 building land was also purchased for the construction of an industrial area and the first groundbreaking ceremony took place on November 1st. In 1991, after the restoration, the stork tower on the Emersleben estate caught fire. In the same year, the foundation stone for the first company settlement in the industrial area was laid. Emersleben also became part of the Schwanebeck administrative community . After a vote by the residents, it was finally incorporated into the city of Halberstadt on May 1, 1995.

coat of arms

used full coat of arms

The coat of arms used in Emersleben was never officially confirmed and was not subject to any approval process. It is used habitually and contradicts the rules of heraldry , especially with regard to tinging (e.g. gold on silver). The coat of arms was taken from the chronicle of 1912. However, this was the black and white representation of the family coat of arms of the von Alvensleben family . This family was associated with Emersleben by the author of the chronicle, the village teacher Robert Wennig. When describing the color scheme of the von Alvensleben family's coat of arms, however, Wennig made a mistake. He described red roses, while the roses in the Alvensleben coat of arms are white on a red background. According to this description, the Emersleben coat of arms was designed in color, so that the red bars, which separated yellow (gold) and white (silver), disappeared compared to the Alvensleben coat of arms. The Emersleben coat of arms is therefore a failed form of the coat of arms of the noble family Alvensleben .
