Location of the municipality of Felde in the Rendsburg-Eckernförde district

Felde is a municipality in the Westensee Nature Park in the Rendsburg-Eckernförde district in Schleswig-Holstein and is the only rural central place in the Achterwehr office . Brandsbek, Felde, Hasselrade, Jägerslust, Klein North Sea, New North Sea, Ranzel, Resenis and Wulfsfelde are part of the municipality.

Geography and traffic

Felde is about 12 km west of Kiel on the federal highway 210 to Rendsburg , which has replaced the federal highway 202 since 1989 .

The Felde-Brandsbek station is located on the railway line from Kiel to Rendsburg , which opened on October 15, 1904, and was no longer served from June 2, 1984 to November 5, 2000. Then it was put into operation as a stopping point in Felde, and in 2014 it was converted back into a crossing station. Since January 4, 2015, train crossings have taken place in Felde due to the half-hourly traffic with local trains. From about 1935 to 1945 a siding led from Felde to a marine tank farm on Lake Flemhuder .

South of the town is the lake fields .

The area around the Westensee is very boggy, so that settlement began relatively late. The Hasenmoor and the Felder moor as well as some spring swamps of the Eider are in the municipal area .

history

The village of Felde is first mentioned in a contract from 1547. At that time the village moved from Gut Bossee to Gut Klein Nordsee. The history of the place, which was sold by the landowner in 1806, is very much shaped by the Klein Nordsee estate.

Noble estate Klein North Sea

Small North Sea mansion

The (small) North Sea estate was mentioned as early as 1300 in the Kiel city book. It takes its name from the village of North Sea on Lake Flemhuder, which died in 1607 . In 1375 it is called Gut zum Achterweehre , and was probably originally protected by a medieval defense system against the Wends settling east of the Eider, the name of which has been preserved in the name of the neighboring village of Achterwehr . The lineage of the earliest known owners, Swawe , died out when the brothers Heinrich and Marquard Swawe were killed in the Battle of Hemmingstedt in 1500. Klein Nordsee came into the possession of the Ahlefeldt family , who also owned goods in the neighboring Westensee. The most famous owner in the 17th century was the Danish field marshal Claus von Ahlefeldt . Around 1700 Wulf Jasper von Brockdorff Klein bought Nordsee and had the manor house expanded. The last Schleswig-Holstein Chancellor Cay Lorenz Graf von Brockdorff was born on the estate as one of his descendants .

Today's manor house was built in 1701 on the basis of two previous buildings. The cellar has been preserved from a moated castle from around 1500. A one-story new building with a side wing in the middle of the 17th century can be seen in the masonry. This was expanded in 1701 to a three-wing, two-story complex, the interior of which is still partially preserved. External decorations of the simple facade in the 19th century were removed again in 1960. The manor house is now a listed building , but is not open to the public. It was used by the Evangelical City Mission in Kiel from 1949 to 2014, initially as a children's home and later as a transitional home for homeless men.
