Gostorf is a district of the municipality of Stepenitztal in the district of Northwest Mecklenburg in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania .
history
Gostorf was first mentioned in 1230 in the Ratzeburg tithe register . There the place is called Villa Gozwini (village of Gozwin) with the addition that it is a Slavic village and does not pay any taxes. In 1275 Heinrich the Younger, Prince of Mecklenburg, gave the Rehna monastery eight hooves in Gozwinsdorpe. Consequently the place has a hoof constitution and is now a German village. The place is called Gosenstorpe in 1404 and Gustorpp in 1519. For a long time Gostorf was a communion village, which means there were knightly, ecclesiastical and ducal landlords who had shares in the village and it was not until 1773 that it became a purely domanial village, i.e. the sole property of the sovereign.
Field names from a field register from 1757, which belongs to the lost directorate map of the place, are: Kussower Scheide, Steinbrink, Nachtkoppel, Communer Brink, Am Hoffeld, Im Naschkaven, Lange Hörn, Buschkoppel, Sandfeld, Ginsterhof, Börzower Scheide, Söhren.
In 1794 there were 7 Hüfner, 6 Kossaten, 1 Büdner, 1 schoolmaster and 1 shepherd in the village. In 1819 one of the typical round barns with a diameter of around 21 meters was built on today's Kuhberg, but was replaced by a new barn in 1871 due to circumstances that had not yet been clarified. From around 1820 there was a school, a smithy and at times two inns. A brick factory was also operated between 1840 and 1900 . In 1914, 303 people lived in Gostorf.
On May 1, 1922, a war memorial in the form of a large boulder was inaugurated on the main street in Gostorf . It commemorates 16 local men who fell during the First World War .
On July 1, 1961, the previously independent political community was incorporated into Börzow . Gostorf belongs to the parish of Grevesmühlen .
On May 25, 2014 the place became part of the Stepenitztal municipality because the Börzow, Mallentin and Papenhusen municipalities merged to form it.
Infrastructure
A federal road maintenance service is located on Bundesstraße 105 (Lübeck - Wismar). The Grevesmühlen – Klütz railway line ran close to Gostorf until it was dismantled in 2005.
