Local division

Only the district of Güssefeld with the Dammkrug residential area belongs to the village.

history

Due to its location on the Dammkrug in the Augrabental, which is important in terms of traffic, Güssefeld had an important function for centuries. The trade route north to Salzwedel , Lüneburg and Hamburg could only be reached via the dam .

Güssefeld was mentioned as Gussenuelde in 1324 , when Hans and Heinecke von Kröcher sold Kalbe Castle and the associated villages to Albrecht von Alvensleben . In 1370 it was mentioned in a document as Güssenvelde .

In the Thirty Years War there was severe destruction; Güssefeld fell victim to the troops moving across the Kalbe Werder .

Origin of the place name

Franz Mertens leads the place name back to the Old High German gizan in the meaning for stream . Guss, pour and pour are old brook names. Güssefeld can therefore be translated as field of small brooks or brook field .

Dam jar

The Dammkrug residential area was first mentioned in 1745 as a Krugrecht à parté on the embankment , which one of the large ossates of Gussenfeld had under him.

Hanns HF Schmidt reported a legend in 1994: When King Friedrich II of Prussia drove through the Altmark again, he used to relax in the Dammkrug near Güssefeld to take a rest. [Meanwhile] ... the peasants from the [neighboring] villages hurriedly erected a flower-adorned gate of honor and the schoolmaster wrote a poem ... Then the happy old Fritz donated the peasants 20 gold pieces.
