Freienhufen (until 1937 Dobristroh , Lower Sorbian Dobry Wotšow ) is a district of the southern Brandenburg town of Großräschen in the Oberspreewald-Lausitz district .
geography
Freienhufen is located in Niederlausitz, west of the town of Großräschen. To the northeast is the district of Woschkow . To the west are the districts of Barzig , Saalhausen and Wormlage . To the north, the Bronkower district of Lug and the Altdöbern locality of Chransdorf border on Freienhufen. To the south-west, the village of Drochow joins the community of Schipkau ; further to the south-west are the towns of Annahütte , Meuro and Klettwitz , also parts of the community of Schipkau. South of Freienhufen is the Meuro opencast mine from which the Großräschener See is created. The originally southern neighboring towns of Freienhufens Sauo and Rauno were devastated by the opencast mine .
history
The oldest documented mention of Freienhufens as Dobroztrowe can be found in a document signed on October 6, 1279. This is now in the Brandenburg State Archives in Potsdam. In it, Margrave Heinrich the Illustrious certified that the Dobrilugk Monastery had acquired the village of Dobristroh from Otto von Schlieben . The location of the place is indicated with between vitatem Calowe et Sennftenberc . The name Dobristroh later developed from Dobroztrowe, the name is derived from the Old Sorbian Dobry (w) ostrow for "good island, good hamlet".
In 1285 the first church in Dobristroh was built. Dobristroh remained part of the Margraviate of Niederlausitz until the Peace of Prague and thus became part of the Electorate of Saxony . After the town of Nossedil , located southwest of Dobristroh, became desolate at the end of the 15th century , the Nossediler Flur came to Dobristroh. After the dissolution of the Dobrilugk monastery in 1540, Dobristroh came under feudal rule. In 1602 succeeded the place together with the adjacent Barzig the compulsory labor to replace for 5500 guilders.
As a result of the Congress of Vienna in 1815, Dobristroh and Niederlausitz came to the Kingdom of Prussia . In 1816 Dobristroh was with the Office Senftenberg to the district Calau affiliated. In 1839, almost the entire village was destroyed by fire, only the village church and the village mug survived the fire. From 1842 two windmills were operated in the village. In the course of the discovery and processing of lignite , the "Renate" and "Eva" briquette factories were built in 1896 and 1900. In 1899 Dobristroh received its own school. Together with Barzig, an independent rectory was established in Dobristroh in 1907. In 1937 the original Slavic place name Dobristroh was changed to "Freienhufen" by the National Socialists as part of the Germanization of place names of Sorbian origin. The name is supposed to remind of the ransom of the place in 1602. Unlike most of the renamed places in Lusatia, Dobristroh has not received its original name back to this day, but since 1992 the Dobristroher Straße in the town center has been reminiscent of the old name.
After the Second World War , the briquette factories "Sonne I" and "Sonne II" were built from 1952 to 1961 due to the opening of large new open-cast mines in Freienhufen. A power plant was built parallel to the “Sonne II” briquette factory. With the political turnaround in Germany, lignite mining declined and with it the production of briquettes. In 1990 "Sonne I" was converted into a dust grinding plant. Briquette production in "Sonne II" was finally stopped in 1997. In the same year on April 1st, Freienhufen was incorporated into Großräschen.
