Location of the community of Golzow in the Märkisch-Oderland district | ||
Golzow [ ˈgɔltsoː ] is a municipality in the district of Märkisch-Oderland . It is the seat of the administrative office of the Golzow office . Since January 21, 2014, the municipality has officially used the additional designation “ Place of the 'Children of Golzow' ” on the entrance signs .
geography
The community of Golzow is 10 km east of the town of Seelow in the Oderbruch . The Alte Oder , a narrow tributary of the Oder , which marked the original course of the river until the 18th century, flows on the northern edge of the town . The flat area, only a few meters above sea level, is characterized by agricultural land.
Community structure
Golzow includes the inhabited parts of the municipality Golzow and Heimstättensiedlung.
history
Golzow was first mentioned in 1308 as Golsow . In connection with the drainage of the Oderbruch under Frederick the Great from 1747 to 1773, Golzow also experienced a considerable expansion.
The Frederician floor plan in its structure is still understandable. The village is divided by a large circular square in the middle of which the church once stood. It was a plastered brick building, the core of which came from the middle of the 18th century. In 1854 it was redesigned by adding additions to a cross-shaped complex with a tower above the crossing and was a striking building of the Schinkel school. Golzow prospered from the connection to Reichsstrasse 1 and the Prussian Eastern Railway and had the highest number of inhabitants in the 1870s. During the Battle of the Oderbruch in April 1945 - as in other villages - the church tower was blown up by German troops, as it would have given the advancing Red Army a good orientation point in the wide, flat landscape. The remnants of the surrounding walls were torn down in the post-war years. After the fighting ended, around 76% of the buildings in the village were destroyed. In order to erase the church from the village image forever, a new intersection was built over its former location during the socialist era. The ruins of the former manor house and the park were also cleared after the Second World War . In 1946 around 750 hectares of arable land were expropriated from the farmers and, in the course of the land reform in Germany, distributed in particular to new farmers. In 1952, the Association of Mutual Farmers Aid was formed in Golzow , from which eleven farmers founded an LPG . After the political change it was transferred to the Golzow agriculture .
Since 1817 Golzow belonged to the district of Lebus in the province of Brandenburg and from 1952 to the district of Seelow in the GDR district of Frankfurt (Oder) . The municipality has been in the Brandenburg district of Märkisch-Oderland since 1993.
