history

People have lived in the Gadsdorf district since the last Ice Age. After the area became ice-free, hunter tribes hunted and rested here. Your presence is evidenced by a rest and work area. Settlements and burial grounds from prehistory and early history, the Bronze Age, the Roman Empire and a settlement from the migration period followed. From the 7th century onwards, Slavs immigrated here after the withdrawal of Germanic tribes. A direct Slavic predecessor settlement is not documented. Today's settlement was built in the 12th and 13th centuries. Century in the course of the German settlement in the east . The original form of the village, a Rundling, however indicates the participation of Slavic settlers. The village shape Rundling is interpreted today as a planned settlement, which occurs almost exclusively in the penetration area of ​​German and Slavic settlers.

Gadsdorf was first mentioned in a document in 1545 (1541?). According to the inheritance register of the Zossen office from 1583, the place had 10 hooves "since ancient times" . The size of each hoof in the district was given as 21 acres of 76 square rods, which corresponds to about 9.1 hectares according to today's standards. There were four kossas in the village, each cultivating 3 to 7.5 acres. A Kossät was used for the Lehnschulzen , two Kossätstellen were only rebuilt in 1572 and 1577. According to the inheritance register of the Zossen office from 1693, the Schulze and three Kossaten had to do feudal services. The entire community was called in to work on the construction of dams and roads as well as to work on the Glienicker vineyard. A blacksmith is mentioned as early as 1624, and in 1745 a forge that was rebuilt after a fire is mentioned. In 1755 the Lehnschulze also had the brewing mug , d. H. the village tavern with brewing rights. The tailor was also a local teacher. 1772 a miller is named. In 1860 the place had 32 residential buildings and 44 farm buildings, including a flour mill. By 1900 Gadsdorf had already grown to 54 houses. In 1945 104 hectares were expropriated and 88 hectares were distributed over 26 small farms. 16 hectares were distributed to 18 old farmers to increase. In 1953 an LPG type I was converted into a local farm (ÖLB). In 1959 a type III LPG was created. In 1961 this LPG had 57 members and farmed 346 hectares of usable area. LPG Type I had 22 members and farmed 111 hectares of usable area. She joined LPG Type III in 1966. In 1973 there was a mill in town.

The origin of the place name is uncertain due to the late mention of the place. Schlimpert considers the derivation of both a German and a Slavic personal name to be possible. In the first case, a nickname Gad (e), from a given name Gadafried, would be possible. In the second case, a Slavic personal name Gad (= snake) would be the basic form. There are some Slavic field names in the Gadsdorf district. In addition, the shape of the village, a round shape, indicates the involvement of the Slavic population in the founding of the village.
