history
Grave fields from the early, middle and late Bronze Age at the Seehotel Luisenhof bear witness to the very early settlement. During the Slavic or Polish rule, one of the two castles Thorin or Rukkowe, which appear in a document from 1336, but cannot be assigned, was probably built here. The largest early Gothic stone church in East Brandenburg was built as a basilica bishopric in the 13th century.
The first written mention of Falkenhagen as Castrum et districtus comes from the year 1313. In 1321 Falkenhagen was an oppidum on the long-distance trade route Magdeburg - Posen . 1375 was a knight Johann von Wulkow and from 1412, the family of Uchtenhagen , family from Berne field and the family of Scharpelow owner. In 1472 the Silesian family von Hohendorff came for over 300 years . In 1600 the city of Falkenhagen had a school. In 1624 there were 535 residents in Falkenhagen. In 1650, after the end of the Thirty Years' War , the town consisted of just 52 farms.
Falkenhagen had city rights until the 17th century. In 1773 legation councilor Johann Anton von Junck bought Falkenhagen and built a pleasure palace. In 1792 Albertine von Junck married Franz Alexander von Kleist . The couple moved to Falkenhagen in the newly built castle in 1793. The book The Happiness of Marriage , created here, is dedicated to his wife. Franz Alexander von Kleist died in 1797. In 1796 Falkenhagen was sold to Reichsgraf zu Münster-Meinhöfel. In 1799, Graf von der Goltz became the owner of Falkenhagen.
The two side aisles of the church were demolished in 1801. In 1805 Baron von Eckardstein acquired the castle, and around 1815 his wife Lisette, née. von Blumenthal , into a mansion and created a park. Julius von Eckardstein and his wife Imperial Countess Wilhelmine Finck von Finckenstein followed in 1830 . In 1852 the New Castle was built in Tudor style between water and forest . In 1862 Walter Schulz-Wulkow bought the Falkenhagen castle and estate.
In 1923 the lake area became a landscape protection area. In 1938/39, the owners of the land on the east side of the Black Lake were expropriated by the National Socialists and Falkenhagen Castle was demolished in 1939. At this point, a secret armaments factory was created under the cover name Seewerk . In 1940/43 an underground plant for the production of chlorine trifluoride (N-substance) and a large-scale sarin plant were built in 1943/45 . Completion was planned for May / June 1945 at the earliest. In February 1945 the entire chemical plant was evacuated and taken over by Soviet troops in April without a fight.
In 1950 the school was rebuilt and in 1954 the LPG was founded . From 1958 to 1964, the Falkenhagen bunker was converted by the GSSD into an ABC-safe emergency command center of the Warsaw Pact .
