history

The Koog was diked in 1714 and was originally intended to protect the land connection between Wesselburen and Büsum . The Friedrichsgabekoog was originally called Wasmerskoog.

With the defeat in the last feud from 1559 lost the de facto - peasant republic Dithmarschen its independence and was divided among the winners. To the Danish King Friedrich II . fell the southern part with the capital Meldorf , to the Schleswig-Holstein Duke Adolf I the northern part with Lunden , which lost its town charter, and to his brother Johann the Elder the middle part around the place Heide . When the latter passed away in 1580 at the age of sixty and without children, his territory passed in equal parts to the first two. This is how the landscapes of Norder- and Süderdithmarschen were created , which were continued as districts in 1867 after the incorporation of Schleswig and Holstein into the Kingdom of Prussia and were only reunited on April 26, 1970 to form the current district of Dithmarschen .

Shortly after the submission, new lands were diked in front of the Meldorf-Barlt-Marne dike. These came into the possession of the residents of the outer dike. Administratively, they were affiliated to the neighboring farmers of the respective parish land municipality . But that should change soon.

The Danish King Friedrich IV . ordered in 1667 that the outer dike areas are left to the future king to use to King Christian V . finally declared in a decision of December 30, 1671 that in future the increases will be entirely due to the prince as sovereign and thus de facto to him, the king.

After that, the respective king, as sovereign, usually sold his claims to the foreland to individual people, usually with the condition that the areas were dammed up within a certain period of time ( imposed kegs ). As an incentive for those interested, special privileges ( Octroy ) were granted, such as exemption from certain public taxes, granting the right to decide administrative and judicial matters for themselves.

Spatially, 7/10 of the area of ​​the future Koog belonged to the Süderdithmarschen landscape (royal part) and 3/10 to ducal territory. In 1714, the royal vice chancellor Johann Jacob von Wasmer and two other people had the Friedrichsgabekoog dyed from their own funds. Thus, the Koog can celebrate its 300th anniversary in 2014, which is now also a decision of the community assembly.

Their sovereigns had granted them extensive special rights. For the royal part, however, such were already at that time the upper chamber secretary Ernst Ulrich Dose , father of the later architect and builder Cay Dose , who came from Friedrichsgabekoog , with Octroi of June 14, 1701 from King Friedrich IV . granted for this area. The newly diked Koog was first given the name "Wasmerskoog", later it was given the name "Friedrichsgabekoog", which is still valid today, and thus reminds of the historical background to the creation of this Koog.

In addition to certain tax exemptions, the residents were guaranteed the freedom to hunt, fish and trade, but above all an independent jurisdiction in civil and criminal matters with a right of appeal to the Glückstadt chancellery. The residents also had their own police system, an independent administration and the right to freely choose an inspector as a supervisory officer for the judiciary, dyke, sewer and roads. At that time, the Koog led a communal life of its own alongside the Süderdithmarschen landscape. This was only eliminated with the incorporation into Prussia. For this, the Koog was allowed to send its own representative to the Norderdithmarschen district council that is now responsible.

From this prehistory, some peculiarities in communal affairs can still be understood today.

politics

The community has a community assembly instead of a community council, to which all residents of the community belong. According to Section 54 of the Schleswig-Holstein municipal code, this applies to all municipalities with fewer than 70 inhabitants.

religion

Friedrichsgabekoog belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran parish of Wöhrden .

traffic

The federal highway 203 between Heide and Büsum runs directly through the Koog.
