history

Low German hall house from the 17th century.

Glasow means "place on stony ground" and probably grew out of a Wendish settlement. The first written mention goes back to the year 1216. The earliest traces of settlement go back to the Neolithic . Remains of the currently oldest house in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania (as of 2020) were uncovered in 2011 on the edge of the village.

In the 13th century, Glazov belonged to the Dargun monastery . After the secularization of the monastery in the middle of the 16th century, the monastery property with Glasow came to the Duke of Mecklenburg. In the Thirty Years War (1618-1648) the village was completely devastated. The first evidence of the twelve farm positions that existed until 1945 comes from this time. In the 17th century, the Low German hall house and cottages, which have been preserved to this day, were also built. 1788 contains Schmettausche map series between Glasow and Dörgelin a brick (to Dörgelin duly) and between Glasow and Röcknitz a Teerofen (to Gasow duly).

From the end of the 19th century, the grand ducal decrees (long-term leases, establishment of Büdnereien , settlement of houses), the effects of the establishment of an empire and the strong technical progress caused the village to grow. The establishment of its own power station in 1909 as a forerunner of the later overland supply should be emphasized. At that time there were large farms, several small farmers and craftsmen (Büdner), a school and an inn in Glasow.

After the Second World War, the large influx of German refugees from the occupied eastern territories and the establishment of the GDR led to changes. One of the eight farmers was expropriated, two left the GDR, the rest joined the Agricultural Production Cooperative (LPG) founded in 1953 . The small farmers who were considered during the land reform in 1946 also joined the LPG. From the 1960s, two apartment blocks, two workshops and two animal fattening facilities were built for the LPG workers.

After German reunification, the LPG was privatized and the village modernized. Nevertheless, Glazov has lost half of its inhabitants since 1990 and has been decommissioned since then.
