Fermersleben is a district in the south of Magdeburg , the capital of Saxony-Anhalt . The district is 3.3799 km² and has 3,588 inhabitants (as of December 31, 2016).

geography

In the east, the Elbe forms the natural border of the district; the dividing line to the northern part of Buckau runs along the Schanzenweg. The Hopfengarten district begins behind the westernmost track of the Fermersleben rail network of the marshalling yard on the Magdeburg – Leipzig line . In the south it borders with the Hermannstrasse Salbke . While the banks of the Elbe in Fermersleben are 45 meters high, the terrain rises to the west to 58 meters above sea level. The two Salbker Lakes I and II are located between the banks of the Elbe and the development zone . In the past, the island Katzenwerder was in the Elbe before Fermersleben . The Sülze , into which the small watercourse Itschenpitte flows, runs east of the village . The Buckau cemetery with a size of about 7.6 hectares is also located in the Fermersleben area, on the northeast border to Buckau. The built-up area only covers an area of ​​about 0.6 km², i.e. only about 18 percent of the area of ​​the district.

It is believed that the villages located around Fermersleben Pretalize and Trumsitze were still in the Middle Ages to deserted villages were.

Infrastructure

Fermersleben is a pure residential area without industrial settlements and with only a few commercial operations, but is located in the catchment area of ​​the business parks to the west and south. On the other hand, the local recreation area Salbker Seen and the sports complex at the northern end of the Alt Fermersleben street offer leisure activities. The type of residential development is different and ranges from the old village center around Mansfelder Straße to the Fermersleben settlement from the 1920 / 1930s to the Alt Fermersleben residential complex that was built in 1998. The district is connected to the public transport network via tram and bus lines. The Fermersleben sports boat harbor is located on the Elbe . The West Elbe Cycle Path runs along the banks of the Elbe .

There are seven allotment garden associations in the district (as of 2013).

history

Prehistoric times

The area of ​​today's Fermersleben was already settled in the early Neolithic (around 2000 BC), as has been proven by excavation finds in the southern area of ​​the district. In the area of Hermannstrasse , settlement remains from the early Neolithic so-called Gatersleben group were found. In the Zinckestraße graves from the late Iron Age found (around 200 v. Chr.). North of the Unterhorstweg there were fragments of Slavic and early German origin that were dated to the 9th or 10th century.

middle Ages

The village of Fermersleben, in the first documentary mention of the deed of donation from King Otto I for the Magdeburg Moritz monastery from 937, still called "Fridumaresleba" or "Fridumarsleve", was founded by German settlers according to its name. His name means something like place of Fridumar. The village belonged to the north of Thuringia . In connection with the establishment of the Archdiocese of Magdeburg, Fermersleben came into the possession of the Berge Monastery in 968 , which verifiably operated a ferry in the village in 1105. At that time, the place was probably located directly on the Elbe, which only later moved its bed further east. Presumably until the 10th century, the old Elbe , which now flows through the Kreuzhorst , was the main river. This Elbarm flowed directly past Fermersleben in the further course. This Elbarm still carried water well into the 18th century, but ultimately only during floods. Then the Sülze , which until then flowed into the Elbe at Salbke, used the old river bed so that its mouth moved to Buckau.

The center of the medieval settlement was the area of ​​today's Mansfelder Strasse, where a fortified church was built. The village probably consisted of just one street north of the church. Only the later expansion of the village took place along the Magdeburg- Calbe (Saale) - Leipzig road . In the High Middle Ages there were two monastery-owned saddle farms in the village . Fermersleben lost a third of its inhabitants through famine and plague in 1316 and 1349.

On July 22nd, 1480 a contract was signed between the farmers of Buckau and Fermersleben and the abbot Andreas of the Berge monastery. The farmers had unjustifiably used three acres of fields in the area of ​​the bridge over the Sülze above the so-called Judenkevers north of the Galgenberg near Buckau, which actually belonged to the Buckau Sankt-Gertrauden-Kirche . The area of ​​today's Schönebecker Straße 82 south of Buckau was called Galgenberg. The farmers gave back the field, the monastery undertook to give the church one guilder every year from its brick yard near the church.

Modern times

Moritz of Saxony

During the Schmalkaldic War (1546–1551), the besiegers of the city of Magdeburg under Elector Moritz von Sachsen and Duke Georg zu Mecklenburg pitched their encampment near Fermersleben on October 4, 1550 and entrenched themselves. During the fighting that followed, parts of Fermersleben, such as the church, were also destroyed. There was also looting and pillage. On November 17th, the besiegers broke off their camp and moved it to the Harsdorf field near Diesdorf . Fermersleben and the events around the camp were mentioned in the song Ein Lied von der Stadt Magdeburg, which happened at the time of the siege , which was sung according to the melody of Es geht ein frischer Sommer .

It was not until 1559 that the damage to the farms was at least repaired and the number of households rose to 20 again. The abbot of the Berge monastery decided in 1565 not to rebuild the Fermersleber church, so that the Fermersleber had to go to the Berge monastery for church services. The church fields in Fermersleben were also attached directly to the monastery. In the same year the Reformation was introduced in Fermersleben . The first Protestant sermon took place on September 9, 1565. As early as 1570, however, the Fermersleber people built a new church. At the end of the 16th century, the Fermersleber asked Berge monastery to hand over the arable land that had previously been allocated to the monastery. In 1598/99 Fermersleben was hit again by the plague. From the 16th century the village was under the Magdeburg Möllenvogtei .

In the Thirty Years War the village was again badly affected. During the siege of Magdeburg in 1631 , the imperial troops of Tilly camped in the southern part of Wolfswerder on the Fermersleber district. There was also a hill from which fire was opened on the Magdeburg fleeing from the Kreuzhorst across the Elbe when the Trutz Tilly hill in Magdeburg was taken. Fermersleben was badly plundered and sacked. After the storming of Magdeburg, prisoners were held in the Tillys camp near Fermersleben in order to obtain a ransom. Among them was the builder Andreas Rudolph . A total of around 400 citizens of Magdeburg could have been interned in the camp. The living conditions in the camp were very poor. On May 14, 1631, a fire broke out in the camp, and it is believed that the prisoners themselves started the fire. In the ensuing turmoil, many managed to escape, including the Swedish ambassador Johann Stalmann who was captured in Magdeburg .

Baltzer Förster , Hans Gommert and Joachim Uterwedde are mentioned as builders and church fathers of the village for 1684 .

The story forgive us our guilt , written by Karl Wilhelm Salice-Contessa in 1814, also takes place at this time, in which Fermersleben is mentioned as the burial place of people acting.

While in 1647 agriculture was already being practiced again in Westerhüsen to the south , it is said about Fermersleben that there was neither stump nor stem . The church was also destroyed again and rebuilt in 1657. In 1681/82 the plague occurred again, which cost many lives and resulted in many fields remaining uncultivated. Between November 1, 1681 and April 24, 1682, 42 people died of the plague in Fermersleben, including the cantor. By 1683, however, the number of households had risen above the pre-war level to 25.

The Möllenvogtei reported on September 22nd, 1714 of an unusually large find of stolen goods in a Fermersleben farmhouse. A house search on August 22, 1714 found money, gold, silver as well as church and household utensils in 100 grain sacks and 4 "shops".

In 1719 there was a major fire in Fermersleben that destroyed ten farms and the Fermersleber school . In 1780 there were 242 inhabitants. The main thing was agriculture, with the Magdeburg Möllenvogtei as a representative of the cathedral chapter being liable for taxes. On July 24, 1798 there was another major fire in Fermersleben, which killed one farm, two half-horse farms and six Kossathen farms.

In January 1800, the appearance of the town with 269 inhabitants was characterized by four-sided courtyards . Overall, there were 36 houses, of which 8 Vollspännern, 2 Halbspännern, 15 Kossaten belonged and 11 own cottagers. The occupation of the region by French troops in 1806 turned out to be catastrophic for Fermersleben. The French troops had advanced to Fermersleben on October 22, 1806 and set up camp here. On November 4, 1806, the place was largely burned down by Napoleonic soldiers moving to Magdeburg. However, the church was preserved and served as a horse stable. A barracks was set up in the school. During the time of the French occupation, Fermersleben belonged to the canton of Sudenburg in the Magdeburg district of the Elbe department in the Kingdom of Westphalia . In November 1813, the French troops had to retreat to the fortress of Magdeburg held by the French in front of the approaching Russian / Prussian units , and there were repeated incidents in the surrounding villages. Fermersleben initially remained under French control. The place was then largely abandoned by the local population, as 600 French soldiers were billeted for several weeks and they had consumed all the food. In the course of the preparations for the handover of the fortress to Prussia , an armistice was reached on April 26th, Paris had already fallen. As agreed, the Prussians temporarily withdrew from Fermersleben, where they had meanwhile moved in, and the French were forbidden to enter this demilitarized area around the fortress.

After Brandenburg (until 1806) and French rule (until 1814), Fermersleben was incorporated into the Wanzleben district on the occasion of the Prussian territorial reform in 1818 and was subordinate to the Salbke office. In 1815 Fermersleben had 270 residents in 62 households, and in 1818 300 residents. By 1840 the number had grown to 452, with all residents of the Protestant denomination. At that time there were four inns and a windmill in Fermersleben. 1733 acres of fields and meadows were tilled.

In 1807, the Fermersleben community was sued to contribute to the construction costs of religious buildings in Buckau. The ecclesiastical congregations of both places had long been connected. On August 14, 1807, however, the court ruled in favor of Fermersleben that there was no obligation on the part of the community.

Friedrich Wilhelm III.

On September 2, 1825, the Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm III. a parade followed by a maneuver by the 4th Army Corps near Fermersleben. When the weather was good, 24½ battalions of infantry and 28 squadrons of cavalry had formed and 30 guns were brought up. The parade and maneuvering area was between Leipziger Chaussee and Schönebecker Strasse in the Fermersleber district. The king is said to have expressed himself satisfied. The troops were under the command of Prince Carl of Prussia and had been in the vicinity for several weeks in a camp between Benneckenbeck and Leipziger Chaussee.

In 1830 the municipality of Fermersleben received a refund for deliveries made during the war in 1813.

An accident was reported for 1831. Marie Elisabeth Heinrich , née Schneidewind , born in Fermersleben in 1805 , drowned near Fermersleben in the Elbe.

A radical change in the local structure occurred with the beginning of industrialization in the first third of the 19th century. From the neighboring Buckau, industrial plants expanded further and further south and thus also influenced the Fermersleben area. The creation of a large number of new jobs in the immediate vicinity also caused brisk housing construction in Fermersleben, initially along the main street, today's Alt Fermersleben street . In the period from 1840 to 1900, the population almost increased tenfold from 452 to 4,245. In the overview of the flora of the Magdeburg region drawn up by the botanist Paul Ascherson in the 1850s , however, Fermersleben and in particular today's main street are also mentioned as the location of plants. The occurrence of yellow Wau on the Chaussee between Buckau and Fermersleben, as well as spotted and star knapweed on the Chaussee to Salbke is listed. In addition, the occurrence of spear-leaved cantaloupe is listed for Fermersleben . In 1866, surprising to the botanists, the rocky yellow star , which was described as very rare, was found on the Schwalbenufer or the Hohe Ufer between Buckau and Fermersleben . The Magdeburg – Leipzig railway line , built from 1838 onwards, was laid just a little west of the town and opened on June 29, 1839. The construction of the railway line was an essential aspect of industrialization. On August 19, 1841 at around 9 p.m., according to other sources, on August 18, 1841, a railway accident occurred near Fermersleben. When it was foggy, a railroad attendant took a white night signal, which signaled the departure of a train, for a red signal, which called for an auxiliary machine to be called and passed the wrong signal on. An unexpected or needed auxiliary machine was therefore sent from Buckau in the direction of Schönebeck , which collided with the evening train going from Schönebeck to Magdeburg at Fermersleben. Six people were seriously injured. Three of them, a train driver, a fireman and a conductor, died from their injuries. One of the seriously injured survivors was the Chairman of the Railway Directorate, Councilor Jean Jacques Cuny . However, Cuny also died from his injuries two years later. At the time of the accident, he was in the locomotive of the evening train. Some passengers on the train suffered minor injuries. According to another statement, four railway officials died and six other people were injured.

In 1845 a windmill built by Müller Wolter was built on the boundary between Buckau and Fermersleben . In 1855 Fermersleben was also affected by cholera . Between June and October 1855, 16 residents died of the disease.

Fort I, belonging to the Magdeburg Fortress, existed north of the village from 1866 to around 1920 . In 1871, Fermersleber Schulze Joh. Andr. Died at the age of 78. Mahrenholtz. His successor in office was his son-in-law Kleinau. From October 1, 1879, Fermersleben belonged to the judicial district of the newly formed Buckau District Court .

In 1882 there were still two windmills in Fermersleben. At the corner of Comeniusstrasse and the corner of Reichweinstrasse, one of the mills still remains in the form of the Fermersleben post mill.

On August 29, 1886, Pust, a worker from Fermersleber, shot his bride Anna Milteis from Buckau in Buckauer Feldstrasse, today's Karl-Schmidt-Strasse. Pust was sentenced to death for the act.

The allotment gardening that was emerging in Germany was also reflected in the Fermersleber district. In 1906, between the railroad and Fort I, the first garden section was a small Buckau garden , today's Fort 1 allotment garden . According to its name and its immediate location on the boundary with Buckau, it was presumably intended primarily to serve Buckauern. In 1922 the Dreieck facility was added . In 1930 the larger facility at Am Steinlagerplatz was finally founded.

Fermersleben also included the Schwan Inn, located far west of the town, directly on the road to Leipzig .

In the western part of the Fermersleber Feldflur, which bordered directly on the Lemsdorfer Feldflur, the new Hopfengarten settlement was built , which today represents Magdeburg's own district. The building was carried out by the Gartenstadt Hopfengarten building cooperative founded on January 22nd, 1909 in the Kristallpalast . A first development plan for the Hopfengarten garden city was presented on March 5, 1909 by the Magdeburg architect Heinrich Geiling . A commission consisting of Professor Albinmüller , garden architect Bauer and the doctor Edgar Mayer had examined the plan beforehand. The final plan was submitted for approval by the architect Franz Amelung on August 26, 1909 and the building plot with an area of ​​83,045 m² was acquired by the Berge Kloster Foundation in October 1909 at a price of 1.40 marks per square meter. A further 73,195 m² were bought later. The actual start of construction and the division of the plots were delayed because in the course of the incorporation of Fermersleben into Magdeburg, there were delays in questions of the settlement permit.

On April 1, 1910, Fermersleben, which had 6,271 inhabitants at that time, was incorporated into Magdeburg. With the incorporation, various streets of Fermersleben were renamed in order to avoid double naming within Magdeburg. Thus, from the Schönebecker road street Old Fermersleben , the field road to Herbert Street and later to Herbartstraße . The Church Street was in Mansfeld street renamed, the School Street in Ascherslebener Street and West Street in Puttkamer street and later in Comeniusstraße . The Mill Street became the Friedrichsruher road and ultimately Empire Wine Route . The name of the neighboring Mühlenweg was first changed to Varziner Straße and later to Rousseaustraße . The Wilhelmstrasse was renamed and is called since Mariannenstraße . The name Otterslebener Weg was initially retained. Later, probably in connection with the incorporation of Diesdorf into Magdeburg, it was changed to Am Hopfengarten and later to Friedrich-List-Straße . Some of the renaming was carried out because names like those after the Prussian minister of education Robert Viktor von Puttkamer or the former Bismarck estate Varzin in Western Pomerania were no longer politically desired during the GDR era . A curiosity is the renaming of Herbertstrasse, initially named after the Prussian Minister of State Herbert von Bismarck , which now refers to the pedagogue Johann Friedrich Herbart by replacing just one letter .

The splendidly designed Fermersleben Town Hall was located at Alt Fermersleben 34 , but it has not been preserved. Even after the incorporation, administrative offices such as an administrative office, the registry office , the beer tax registration office, the savings bank and the tax office were housed here. The incorporation had a negative effect on the Fermersleben volunteer fire department . Initially, the municipal fire brigade was only used when the local forces were insufficient. After a few years, however, it became apparent that the professional fire brigade was more effective due to the different equipment. The Fermersleber fire brigade was only able to come to the scene of action after a complicated alert, while the municipal professional fire brigade soon arrived with motorized fire engines. As in other suburbs, this situation led to the dissolution of the local fire brigade. At least it no longer existed in 1926.

A clause was agreed in the incorporation agreement, according to which the usual slaughterhouse obligation for Fermersleben was suspended until March 31, 1920.

The Buckau R. Wolf machine factory expanded its factory , which was founded in Salbker, to Fermersleben. Many tenements but also bourgeois villa-like houses were built. Immediately before the First World War , a building cooperative had a first housing estate built on the so-called Eber north of the old town center in Faberstrasse , which was completed in 1914.

In 1911 the swimming and rowing club Fermersleben was founded , which, after an eventful history, still exists today as the Buckau-Fermersleben water sports club . Another club during this time was the first swimming club in Fermersleben .

On August 1, 1914, Germany mobilized for the First World War, which was also welcomed by the Fermersleber population. Already on August 4, 1914 in Fermersleben found quartering instead of soldiers. Due to the war, child care was organized in Fermersleben in the form of a detention center or after-school care center. In 1916, diphtheria occurred more and more among children in the southeastern districts of Magdeburg.

Street Am Klosterfeld in the Fermersleben settlement

Housing construction continued after the First World War. First, makeshift apartments were built in the Felgeleber Strasse area . Between 1920 and 1938, housing programs came under the Weimar Republic and the Third Reich , the settlement Fermersleben the rim liver street where the well-known architect of Magdeburg, a major residential development north and south Carl Krayl was involved. In 1916, the then owner Heinrich Böwe set up a cinema with 347 seats on the site of the former Mahrenholzhof. On October 20, 1921, the pharmacist Ludwig Paull received the license to operate a pharmacy . The Fermersleber pharmacy was then opened on February 1, 1922. Previously there was the Zur Post restaurant and a postal agency , both operated by Rudolf Zinneck. In the autumn of 1922, the Michaelis bathing establishment burned down on the Elbe, but was rebuilt.

On October 25, 1920, the then 19-year-old Erich Ollenhauer , who later became chairman of the SPD for many years, held a youth meeting in Fermersleben. In the election campaign for the Prussian state elections, the Anhalt State Councilor Richard Paulick (SPD) spoke at the Stiller inn on February 12, 1921 .

For August 16, 1923, a hurricane is reported that raged on the Elbe meadows and destroyed the clubhouse of the free water sports club in the Katzenwerder area, with several injuries. Since September 6, 1926 the tram line Magdeburg - Schönebeck also ran through Fermersleben. When the road was widened in the course of the construction, the historic stone cross Fermersleben was removed and probably destroyed.

On the site of the former Fort I, a sports facility with two sports fields and sanitary buildings was built in 1926/27. There was space for 11,000 spectators in the grandstands. One of the clubs using the facility was the men's gymnastics club Fermersleben from 1888, which had departments for handball , fistball and gymnastics. The workers' sports club Vorwärts Fermersleben and Sportclub Fermersleben , which are dedicated to handball , also used the facility. The Rasensport Buckau club, founded in 1919, was added in the early 1930s. The sporting highlight was the final of the German field handball championship of the Workers' Gymnastics and Sports Association in 1928 , in which Vorwärts Fermersleben lost 2: 4 to Ottakring Vienna . Even in later decades, higher-class handball was played in Fermersleben, which earned the district the nickname handball village .

At the beginning of April 1932, the NSDAP held an election campaign meeting for the second round of the 1932 presidential election in the politically strongly social democratic and communist working-class district , which led to a battle in the hall with members of the anti-fascist Iron Front , in which the National Socialists won the upper hand.

National Socialism and World War II

During the Nazi era, a red flag was hoisted on May 1st by Reinhold Julius on the Fermersleber sports field in protest against the Nazi tyranny . By 1933 the population of Fermersleben had risen to 9008. With the completion of the construction work in the Fermersleben settlement, the district reached its highest population in 1938 with more than 10,000 inhabitants. From December 1932 at least , there was a resting place for Sinti on Elbweg in Fermersleben . By decision of the NS city administration on March 4, 1935, the camp was relocated to the north of Magdeburg in May 1935, whereby the living conditions of the residents deteriorated considerably. In Fermersleben, forced laborers, foreign workers and prisoners of war were housed in several places. The hall of the Stillers society house at Alt Fermersleben 32 initially served as accommodation for German compulsory workers and was then used to accommodate prisoners of war who worked for Buckau-Wolf in Salbke. Also in connection with this work was a labor camp for Russian prisoners of war at the address Am Hopfengarten 8 , today's Friedrich-List-Straße . Foreign and forced laborers of the Deutsche Reichsbahn were housed in Felgeleber Strasse . During the Second World War, there was only primitively equipped accommodation on Mertensstrasse for foreign workers who had to work in the Buckau R. Wolf machine factory .

West of the Alt-Fermersleben street, roughly opposite the confluence with Sophienstrasse, was on the Buckau-Wolf premises, at least from 1941 and probably until 1943, the fourth light anti-aircraft train 5/124 , which was intended in particular to defend the plant. Another light flak position was in what is now the Salbker See I area . During the Second World War, Fermersleben was affected by war damage from both bombing and fighting on the ground. As early as 1942, an incendiary bomb is said to have hit the Elbbadeanstalt Michaelis , whose floating barge was destroyed in the process. According to other information, the destruction did not take place until 1944. A bomb attack, which also affected Fermersleben, took place on January 21, 1944 between 11:15 and 11:34 pm. On February 2, 1945, between January 8th and 8th, 1945, an air raid on Magdeburg-Südost took place, which did not cause any deaths. Further attacks took place on February 13 and February 14, 1945. Freight trains exploding in the marshalling yard, however, caused damage to the Martin Gallus Church, among other places. On April 14, 1945, from 1 p.m. onwards, Wehrmacht commands blew up ammunition trains between Fermersleben and Buckau, which were loaded with sea ​​mines , among other things . The detonations shook the surrounding residential areas for hours. At around this time, fighting also took place in Fermersleben. With guns standing in the Buckauer Friedhof were around the 15./16. On April 4th, US troops advancing from Salbke and Fermersleben on Buckau were shot at. The sports complex was also damaged by the war.

Time of the GDR

After the occupation of Fermersleben, as in other remote parts of the city, a local district mayor's office was established because the municipal authorities could not or not sufficiently take action. In mid-May 1945, this provisional structure was dismantled by Mayor Otto Baer , as "traffic with these suburbs became free ... and the city authorities were able to work again" .

In the post-war period, the sports facility was rebuilt and renamed Platz der Freunde. It was used by BSG Motor Südost Magdeburg , later Fermersleber SV 1895 . The ferry service of the Fermersleben ferry was discontinued in 1959. In 1960 the Fermersleben sport boat harbor was built in the area of Katzenwerder on the Elbe .

In the time of the GDR, the structure of many buildings deteriorated significantly. A general development plan for Magdeburg drafted in 1967 provided for the demolition of numerous apartments, especially in the old town center, for Fermersleben. However, this project was not carried out due to the persistent lack of living space. The expansion of the Salbker Lakes into a local recreation area had a positive effect on Fermersleben.

After 1989

Housing estate from 1998

After 1990, the Fermersleben building was extensively renovated. This was preferably done in the settlements that were built between 1914 and 1938. One of the few new buildings is a residential complex near the old town center, which was built from 1998 onwards, consisting of five houses with a total of 112 apartments.

The citizens' association Salbke, Westerhüsen, Fermersleben e. V. is committed to the interests of the district. The historic chain steamer Gustav Zeuner , which had been on land near the Elbe for many decades , was renovated at the beginning of the 21st century, but then opened to the public at a new location in Magdeburg's commercial port . On June 24th and 25th, 2011, the 13th concrete boat regatta took place in Fermersleben on Salbker See II . During the Elbe flood in 2013 , the areas to the east of the location were affected by the flood. While Fermersleben itself was not affected due to its elevated location, the area around the port of Fermersleben was flooded from June 4, 2013. As of June 6, 2013, a 75-year-old man who was found dead in Salbker See I on June 20 was missing .

A stumbling block was laid in front of Mühlinger Straße 10 on October 25, 2013 for Alma Gast , who was persecuted and murdered as a member of Jehovah's Witnesses during the Nazi era.

Buildings and monuments

Mahrenholzhof

The cultural monuments in the district are listed in the local monument register . The Martin-Gallus-Kirche with its medieval tower, built in 1657, stands on Mansfelder Strasse in the eastern old town center . It is the only half-timbered church in Magdeburg. The Mahrenholzhof with a three-storey residential tower is also on Mansfelder Strasse .
