Village church in Fahrland

Fahrland is a district of Potsdam with 5084 inhabitants , in the north-west of the city. It was first mentioned as a village in the 12th century and incorporated into Potsdam on October 26, 2003 as part of the Brandenburg municipal area reform.

geography

The village is located north of the Fahrlander See and borders northeast on the Döberitzer Heide nature reserve .

The geographical center of the state of Brandenburg is located on the north bank of the Fahrlander See (calculated by halving the distances between the northernmost, southernmost, westernmost and easternmost point of the state border parallel to the longitude and latitude). It is marked with a stainless steel stele.

history

On May 28, 1197, the village was first mentioned under the name Vorlande . A deed of donation from the Margrave of Brandenburg Otto II dates from that day .

Fahrland was a municipality in the Osthavelland district . On April 1, 1939, the place was reclassified to the Potsdam district. On July 25, 1952, he was spun off from Potsdam and thus became independent again.

After the place was already part of Potsdam from 1939 to 1952, it was spun off again as part of the territorial reform of the GDR and received the status of a municipality. The German reunification in 1990 led to an administrative reorganization and Fahrland, in debt with 32 million euros in 2003, returned to Potsdam on October 26, 2003.

As part of the Berlin agglomeration, which has been growing rapidly since the beginning of the 21st century, Fahrland has been adding several new residential areas, such as B. iceberg pieces expanded. The number of inhabitants is increasing accordingly in Fahrland.

Attractions

The Fahrländer Mühle
  • The post mill , built in 1758 and moved to its current location in 1798, is worth seeing . It is the last of the three original mills in Fahrland and it is largely preserved in its original state. It was operated as a grain mill until 1967. Then it served, together with a neighboring new low-rise building, as a popular restaurant, in whose wooden building you could eat hearty meals. In the 2000s, their mill wings were damaged and no longer reconstructed, but removed for safety reasons. The complex has been preserved as an excursion restaurant - now privatized.
  • The medieval village church, of which Gothic elements are still preserved, was fundamentally rebuilt in 1709 in the baroque style. The church tower was raised in 1740 and given a baroque structure in 1772.

traffic

Fahrland can be reached by car via the A 10 , exit Potsdam-Nord, and along the federal highway 273 . Bus 609 is still in operation from downtown Potsdam , serving the Potsdam districts of Marquardt , Satzkorn and Kartzow every half hour .

Krampnitz cavalry and armored troop school

In Krampnitz , in the east of Fahrland, the Army Riding School had been located since the late 1930s , and later the School for Rapid Troops and Panzer Troop School II Krampnitz . After the end of the Second World War, the area was used by the Red Army as a barracks. Since the withdrawal of the Soviet troops in 1994, the site has been empty and has occasionally been used as a location for film productions. From 2019 a new district with apartments for 7000 residents in listed old buildings and mostly in new buildings is to be built, which would increase Fahrland's population two and a half times.

Literature and media

Fahrland found its way into Theodor Fontane's work Walks through the Mark Brandenburg , which was created between 1862 and 1888. In it he describes the place with the church and pastor, among other things, the Königswall and the Kirchberg.

The Studio Babelsberg took in orphaned state occasionally on the nearby Krampnitz barracks as a film set back.

Large parts of the film Duell - Enemy at the Gates by Jean-Jacques Annaud were shot in Krampnitz, for example parts of the Red Square in Stalingrad were recreated. According to the production notes on the DVD of the film, local businesses, such as plumbing and electricians, as well as the local volunteer fire brigade , hotel and restaurant business, have been heavily involved in production.

Furthermore, parts of the film Inglourious Basterds by Quentin Tarantino were shot in the old barracks. The dream sequences (nightly ball) in the remake of the Theodor Fontane novel Effi Briest by Hermine Huntgeburth were created in the former officers' mess .

Other major productions are Resident Evil by Paul WS Anderson , Operation Walküre - Das Stauffenberg-Assentat with Tom Cruise , Mein Führer - The truly truest truth about Adolf Hitler with Helge Schneider and Ulrich Mühe , as well as Roman Polański's The Pianist , and George Clooney's Monuments Men - Unusual heroes with John Goodman and Hugh Bonneville .
