history

In 1745 the farm was officially named Engels Hoff .

The farm was a manor in Wendemark. It belonged to the von Wultzke (Wulsch) family from before 1425 until the family died out in 1679. In 1621 Knüppelholz, mayor of Seehausen, was repurchased for 12 years, then Roloff was repurchased in 1658 for 20 years, from whom it was assigned to Riepert and of this, the process was registered in 1684 at the feudal office.

In the court chronicle of the Engelshof, written by Wilhelm Arnoldi and Rudolf Henneke, it says Peter Engel had faithfully accompanied the Great Elector on his campaigns and in gratitude he gave him the Wendemarker Hof in 1679. It was later noted in the files: The widow Knüppelholz, meanwhile the wife of the tax advisor Peter Engel zu Seehausen, whose son Andreas Engel was enfeoffed with the entire property in 1687. The manor was owned by the angels until 1874. The court chronicle says: When Franz Christoph Friedrich Wilhelm Engel died in 1874, leaving no male heirs, his widow had to sell the farm. Other owners were 1874–1916 Premier Lieutenant and manor owner Albert Buschendorf, and 1916–1936 the farmer Julius Siedersleben. In 1936 the director Arthur Hennecke bought the farm. As manor no. 4 with an agricultural area of ​​194.2 hectares, the farm was expropriated during the land reform in 1945, divided and sold to " resettlers " from Neumark , among others , who were allowed to settle there.

The manor house is located in the southeast of the courtyard. On the former farm yard, where the dung heap and the large sandstone trough once were, there are now two single-family houses. To the east of the courtyard there was still a small park in the mid-forties of the 20th century. Around a pond in the middle stood elms, linden, chestnut and oak. A circular path lined with hawthorn bushes led around the park. This continued over a bridge to the other bank of the Tauben Aland.

In the course of the "wiping action of the FDJ " in 1960, a pig fattening facility was established on the farm . It was shut down after the fall of the Wall .

In 1986 the Engelshof was listed as a district of Werben (Elbe) . Later it was only listed as another settlement (residential area) of Wendemark in the directories.

religion

The Evangelical Christians from Engelhof were churched in Wendemark and thus formerly belonged to the Wendemark parish near Werben on the Elbe. The parish today belongs to the parish Werben. Originally run by the parish area courtship, it is since 2018 the parish area Seehausen of the church district Stendal in Propst Sprengel Stendal Magdeburg of the Evangelical Church in Central Germany serves.

In 1712 the owner of the manor Joachim Christoph Engel had a wooden patronage chair built in the Wendemarker church, on which scenes from the life of Jesus are depicted.
