history
The place was called Cordshagen or Kurtshagen until the end of the 16th century. This was remembered for a long time by the Kordshäger Mühle located by the Mühlenbach stream. From 1424 the Carthusian monastery Marienehe near Rostock acquired real estate in Cordshagen, a total of four farms. After the Reformation, these came into the possession of the nobleman Gutzlaff Rotermund via various stations in 1570 . He built the moated castle mentioned below and renamed his new knight's seat in Engelswacht . The name has been documented since 1596.
The estate was donated from the Rotermunds by Queen Christina to the Swedish Colonel Christoff Brunell, whose descendants sold it to the Stralsund budget and later castle captain Martin Klinckowström . The Klinckowström sold Engelswacht in 1787 to the von Maltzahn , after whom other owners came, u. a. that of Schlichtkrull.
To the northwest of the town is an early medieval boundary stone with a fossilized hand print; it is registered as a ground monument. An early modern moated castle was the basis for the later estate. The remainder of a rectangular moat and the remains of the castle's foundation walls are important soil monuments of regional importance. In the middle of the 18th century, a new manor and baroque park were laid out. The village plan of the Swedish General Staff from 1762 shows this system, which is described in detail by the private tutor of the von Klinckowström family, Johann Christian Müller, in his autobiography, which is kept in the Stralsund city archives.
In 1835, Engelswacht was designated a manor village with a dominant compact manor with a large park and a farm workers' Katensiedlung 700 meters away, according to the Prussian Urmes Tischblatt (PUM). The manor park was a baroque complex at the time.
In 1863 the Greifswald – Stralsund railway was built , dividing the place into a manor and a village. The place had a level crossing with a guard, but no stop.
In 1871 Engelswacht had the following official statistics: 7 residential buildings in which 14 households were present. The place had 78 inhabitants, in 1867 there were still 92. All of them had the Protestant denomination.
In 1880, the property was expanded and modernized according to the measurement table sheet (MTB). The manor park had been converted into an English landscape park. The village was a street village with constant development.
In 1920, according to MTB, no structural change in the estate and village was evident.
After the land reform of 1945 the estate was dissolved, only four farm buildings remained. A few new farms were built in the village and others were built on the road to Miltzow. An agricultural-industrial complex for animal husbandry was built there, which expanded and modernized after 1990.
Engelswacht belonged to the Miltzow community . This merged on June 7, 2009 with the communities Behnkendorf , Brandshagen , Horst , Kirchdorf , Reinberg and Wilmshagen to form the new community Sundhagen.
