history
10th to 15th centuries
In the vicinity of the village church Giesensdorf there was a Slavic settlement since the 10th century , which was abandoned at the beginning of the 13th century. The resettled Slavs took part in the construction of the village of Giesensdorf, which was built around 1230 and whose shape is no longer recognizable in the 21st century. It was a street village along today's Ostpreußendamm, with the village church in the center, at the junction of the street to the neighboring village of Osdorf . The construction of the village church began around 1250, with the eastern half (chancel), continued around 1350.
Giesensdorf was first mentioned in a document in 1299 as Ghiselbrechtstorp . At that time it belonged to the margrave and came to the Bishop of Brandenburg around 1308 until after 1375 . He kept the income while the rest of the elevations and services were loaned out. According to the land register of Emperor Charles IV , the village of Gyselbrechtstorpp or Gieseberchstorff in 1375 comprised a total of 50 Hufen (around 383 hectares = 3.83 km²), including three parish hooves and a desolate water mill, but no jug .
Around 1400 it fell back to the margrave. He gave the village to the von Quast zu Saarmund family before 1429 until after , and to the Gröben family before 1480 to 1792 . They received the entire village, including the upper and lower courts, as well as church patronage . After that the property was divided and a frequent change of ownership was the result. In 1450 Giesensdorf was 50 hooves, including three parish hooves; there were seven gods and one shepherd who had to pay interest for the 47 hooves. In 1480 six hooves had fallen in desolation, six more were "burned", while the remaining hooves were still subject to tax. But only four of the seven kotters lived in the village.
16th and 17th centuries
In 1541 the pastor in Gisempsdorff (1542) owned three hooves, of which he managed one himself. He received the “30th of all hooves”. Almond ”and a third of the meat tithe. He was allowed to fish on the lake and received seven smokers . In 1546 there was a Schulzen and a Krüger in the village. In addition, several Hufnerhöfe are named, including an unspecified "New Farmer". In 1608 von der Gröben had its seat in Giesensdorf. Before the Thirty Years' War there were eleven Hufner, one Kötter, a shepherd and a househusband in the village. They farmed 47 Hufen land. After the war there was only one sitter, two farmers with two servants and four kötter. The von der Gröbens estate was reported from 1684. It consisted of a house, yard and stables as well as nine and a half desert contributory hooves that "he had under the plow". The family owned the shepherd's rights , a windmill, a vineyard and received income from a five-hoofed, three four-hoofed, two three-hoofed and three farmers, who, however, were counted as those who owned berries. There was still a muck with only one hoof; a Kötterhof was desolate. The sexton lived in another Kötterhof.
18th century
In 1711 nine hoofers, a kötter, a shepherd, a boy and three pairs of householders worked in the village. They paid eight groschen dues for each of the 47 hooves. From 1713 it was known that von Gröben owned 3/4 of the upper and lower courts as well as the church patronage. Their share went to the following people

From the year 1758 a five-hoofed, a four-and-a-half-hoofed, five four-hoofed, one three-hoofed and a kötter with one hoof were known. In 1771 there were 10 gables (= residential houses) in the village. For the first time a blacksmith appeared, then a shepherd and only a few house people.
19th to 21st century
In 1801 nine whole farmers, nine kötter and four Büdner lived in the village and estate. There was a jug and 17 fireplaces (= households). In 1840 the place had grown to 16 houses. A peat cut appeared for the first time this year. In 1858 there were eight farm and estate owners with 40 servants and maids and 25 day laborers. There were three part-time farmers with a maid as well as ten workers and three servants. Giesensdorf had eight possessions. The manor was the largest possession with 1480 acres . Seven other properties ranged in size from 30 to 300 acres, adding up to 1,197 acres. In addition to a master blacksmith, the statistics included three local arms. In 1860 there were three public buildings in the village. There were also 12 residential and 25 farm buildings. The estate had six residential and eight farm buildings as well as a sheep farm.
In 1865, the entrepreneur Carstenn acquired the Giesensdorf and Lichterfelde estates as well as Wilmersdorf with the area that would later become Friedenau , in order to establish extensive villa colonies on these areas .
With the development, Lichterfelde and Giesensdorf grew together. In 1877 the unification and settlement of the villages took place. The place name Giesensdorf went out of use and lives on only in the name of the Protestant parish Petrus-Giesensdorf , the Giesensdorfer elementary school on Ostpreußendamm and Giesensdorfer Straße (between the old village churches of Giesensdorf and Lichterfelde).
