history

Former manor Stölln (19th century)

In 1441 almost the entire little country Rhinow, including Stölln, came into the possession of the von der Hagen family for 500 years as the episcopal Havelberg fief . To defend their possessions they built several permanent houses and castles along the Havel.

Since Easter 1894, the glider pioneer Otto Lilienthal used the Gollenberg regularly as a starting point for his test flights. Even after its crash on August 9, 1896, the Gollenberg remained a popular starting point for glider and motorized pilots. In 1936 a gliding school was built at the foot of the Gollenberg. a. was also visited by Charles Lindbergh . In 1940 the building of the gliding school burned down. The glider operations and the training of glider pilots continued until 1945.

Neuwerder and Stölln belonged to the Westhavelland district in the Prussian province of Brandenburg since 1817 and to the Rathenow district in the GDR district of Potsdam from 1952 . Since 1993, the places have been in the Havelland district in Brandenburg.

The community of Gollenberg was created in the course of the Brandenburg district reform on December 31, 2002 from a merger of the communities Schönholz-Neuwerder and Stölln. Gollenberg, located between the districts of Stölln and Neuwerder, was named after it. At 109.2 meters, it is the highest point in the western Havelland.
