Frankenfelde is a district of the town of Luckenwalde in the Teltow-Fläming district in Brandenburg

location

Originally developed as an anger village, it is located northwest of the city center. West of the district borders Ruhlsdorf the municipality Nuthe-Urstromtal on. This is followed in a clockwise direction by the further district of Woltersdorf , the city center, the Luckenwalder district of Kolzenburg , the former Forst Zinna military area (to Jüterbog ) and another district of Nuthe-Urstromtal, Frankenförde . While the northwestern part is forested, the remaining areas are mainly used for agriculture. The long rural tradition is also indicated by a barn belt, which, starting from the Anger, forms a border between the village and the arable land and which at an earlier point in time served to protect the place. The last two houses on the village green, which, due to their special location, form the end of the Angers, also contribute to this. From this closed settlement a new residential area has developed in the direction of Gottsdorf in recent years; likewise to Luckenwalde.

history

13th to 16th centuries

Frankenfelde was first mentioned in a document in 1285, when Luckenwalde and eleven other villages, including Franckenfelde, were sold to the Zinna monastery by the Magdeburg ministers Oltzo and Wedego von Richow . The size of Frankenfelde was given as 62 hooves , which corresponded to about 465 hectares . At that time there were supposed to have been 34 courtyards in the village, the residents of which from now on had to do hand and clamping services in addition to interest . Then there was the tithe . In the second half of the 13th century, master builders built a stone church . In 1337 Vrankenfelde appeared in a document. At this time, in 1413, marauding knights were looted. Dietrich von Quitzow , Hans von Putlitz and Wichard von Rochow are named . In 1417 knights visited the place again and killed the Kruger , pastor and bell ringer. Similar attacks occurred in other villages as well, whereupon the Lehnschulzen asked the margrave Frederick I to settle the damage only in 1420 . However, it is not clear from the present documents of the arbitration court whether the farmers were compensated. For many decades the place was dominated by agriculture. Sheep and beekeeping have been handed down from around 1450. Hops, flax, rape, buckwheat and millet were grown; the farmers in the village ran cattle breeding. Around 30 years later, the first traders came to the village and the first craftsmen settled down. From the year 1480 the place Franckenfelde is mentioned in a document , in which there was next to the Schulzen with four Lehnhufen, 18 Drei Hufner , a Krüger , 18 Kötter , a sexton and a vicarage as well as the pastor, who was entitled to two Hufen.

16th to 18th century

The first school was opened in the village around 1600. With the Reformation and the rule by which ended Cistercian and Frankenfelde came after the Thirty Years' War to the Duchy of Magdeburg . The plague, war and bad harvests had badly affected the village. In 1648 the place was almost desolate and only four Hüfner and eight Kötter lived in the place. After the last administrator of Magdeburg, August von Sachsen, died childless in 1674, the place became part of the Zinna office. Frankenfelde slowly recovered and in 1684 34 estates with a Lehnschulzen, 18 Ganzhüfner and 13 Kossät resettled in the village. In 1712 there was a major fire in the village, which also destroyed the school building. 1727 lived in the village of the Lehnschulze, 18 Hüfner, one Halbhüfner and 14 Kossaten. In 1730 a miller built a windmill , which existed until the 20th century and which in the 21st century is only reminiscent of the street name Mehlberg . However, the Seven Years War brought new suffering when Austrian soldiers looted the village in 1756.

19th century

The new century began with the Wars of Liberation , in which the Franconians also had to make sacrifices. At the beginning of the 19th century, however, the place also benefited from the newly emerging industry in neighboring Luckenwalde. 42 houses in Frankenfelde have survived from 1837. Two master tailors, a carpenter and a blacksmith worked. There was also a windmill, a loom, a jug, and 19 and 13 female servants. In 1854 there was another big fire in which almost all buildings in the village were destroyed.

In the course of the separation of the Feldmark in 1858, 3352 acres of land were cultivated in the village. Of these, 42 were on farmsteads, 30 on garden land, 2000 on arable land, 200 acres on meadow, 400 acres on pasture and 680 acres on forest. There were 57 residential and 111 farm buildings. In 1876, a new regulation of tobacco taxation resulted in numerous farmers giving up this agricultural branch because the yield was no longer worthwhile. Around 1880, the school teachers created a first chronicle of the place, which has so far been considered lost. In the years 1895/1896 there was a Lehnschulzen, 17 Hüfner, one Halbhüfner, 13 Kötter, six Büdner and another Büdner who also worked as a blacksmith. There was also a mill owner, a hunting tenant, a game keeper, an innkeeper as well as a teacher and a pastor. At that time there were 473 inhabitants in the village.

In 1905 craftsmen built a new school building. In 1911 the road to Luckenwalde was expanded. In the First World War 51 men had to go to war from the town; 15 of them did not return. In 1920 the place was connected to the electricity. 57 residents formed a rural electricity cooperative and operated the electrical network. Numerous machines, especially in the handicrafts and agriculture, could now be operated electrically. In the time of National Socialism , numerous associations and choirs emerged in the village; In 1934 the volunteer fire brigade was founded. After the end of the Second World War , in which 20 Franconian fields died, a local group of the Association of Mutual Farmers Aid was founded in 1946 . Due to resettlers, the population rose to up to 559 people in 1946. The existing lands were redistributed through the land reform and large farmers were expropriated. The school closed in September 1952. Since then, the local children have been going to class in Luckenwalde. In 1955 the farmers in Frankenfelde joined together to form a LPG type III with 11 members who jointly cultivate 117 hectares of land. The pressure on the remaining farmers increased until all of Frankenfeld's farmers united in the new LPG German-Soviet friendship with effect from April 1, 1960 . They operated a joint animal husbandry, for which a pigsty was built on a hill north of the village in 1962. In 1964 there were 420 residents in the village; the children were taken to school in Zülichendorf by bus. In the following years, numerous residents moved to Luckenwalde and other cities. The number of inhabitants sank to 372 people in 1971. The LPGs were further developed in the Cooperative Plant Production Department . A year later, the remaining LPGs in Frankenfelde, Frankenförde and Gottsdorf merged and specialized in the production of milk. The population continued to decline and in 1981 was 330 people. In 1985 the place celebrated its 700th anniversary. In 1987 the place was connected to a central drinking water supply; 1993 to a central gas network. In 1993 Frankenfelde was incorporated into Luckenwalde.

21st century

In 2001, the sewage company began laying a network. Numerous archaeological finds were found that showed that the place was already settled in the Slavic period. A year later, work began on federal highway 101 , where further discoveries were made. In 2010 the place celebrated its 725th anniversary. In 2018 and 2019, craftsmen modernized the parish hall.
