Geographical location

history

The first written mention of the place comes from a will in 1323. The village was then called fredrichstorp , which means village of Frederik . The name changed several times, so in 1460 Frederichstorff and from 1752 Fredersdorf or Friedersdorf . From 1480 to 1655 the village was owned in various degrees by the von Pfuel family . The von Schapelow family were feudal lords of the estate from 1441. In 1529 this went to Melchior von Pfuel († 1541) for lack of an heir . After his death, only his eldest son Georg († 1559) inherited, and then his sons Nickel and Valtin each inherited half of Friedersdorf. In 1652, their descendants had to take out a loan from Lieutenant General Joachim Ernst von Görzke (1611–1682), and the property served as a pledge. After the loan was not repaid, the estate remained in the possession of the von Görzke family . By marriage in 1682 the village passed to Hans Georg von der Marwitz. This started the connection between Friedersdorf and one of the oldest families in the Mark Brandenburg. The von der Marwitz family remained the owner of the property until the end of World War II and was expropriated in 1945 as part of the land reform in the Soviet occupation zone.

Friedersdorf Castle around 1860, Alexander Duncker collection

The castle was built around 1700 and remodeled in a neo-Gothic style by Karl Friedrich Schinkel in the 19th century ; He also replaced the double-barreled baroque staircase and other interior fittings in line with contemporary tastes. The library he built remained unchanged until 1956. He left some stucco ceilings with baroque frescoes untouched. Fontane wrote about the castle and family on his hikes through the Mark Brandenburg . His essay contained there about the brothers Friedrich August Ludwig von der Marwitz and Alexander von der Marwitz conjures up the "old Prussian spirit". Fontane also inspired the family's epitaphs in the Friedersdorf village church , "the sans pareil among the Brandenburg churches" , and he helped the grave inscription for Friedrich August Ludwig von der Marwitz to great fame: "... chose disgrace where obedience did not bring honor" . It later became the secret slogan for the resistance against National Socialism . The Marwitze and Fontane made Friedersdorf the "consecrated domain of what we mean by" Prussian "in the highest sense ... The nice thing about Friedersdorf is that the chain has not broken off. Anyone who drives unsuspectingly through Friedersdorf sees a charmless landscape, a manor village like there are many. But what spiritual wealth when you penetrate! " ( Udo von Alvensleben , 1935)

In 1956 the castle, which had survived the Second World War almost undamaged, was blown up as a "haven of reaction". In 1990 Hans-Georg von der Marwitz (* 1961), a grandson of the owner who was expelled in 1945, returned and started an agricultural business on land that had been bought back and leased. Outbuildings of the demolished castle became the new residence.

The former municipality merged on October 26, 2003 with the previously independent municipalities of Diedersdorf , Marxdorf and Worin to form the municipality of Vierlinden.

In 2006 the steam flight day took place for the fourth time and attracted 12,000 visitors.
