history

The first reliable mention of the place comes from 1475 as zu Garcz . Further mentions are 1496 to Gartzk , 1518 de hoff to Gartze with the Dorppern Groten Gartze , 1687 Gartze and 1804 Dorf and Gut Groß Gartz . In 1842 Groß Garz is a parish village and a manor suitable for the state assembly with the manor houses Pickenhagen and Dreistücken.

Origin of the place name

The name is of Slavic origin. Some think "Garz" means "fortified place". Others trace the name back to the stems of the word “grad” or “grod”, translated as “hurdle” or “the fenced in” - a castle.

Groß Garz moated castle

In the south-west corner of the village on the site of the former knight's estate, the moats of a rounded, rectangular castle with a diameter of 100 by 150 meters around the former estate of the Schmidt family were preserved. Blue-gray sherds from the 13th and 14th centuries were found there.

Gartizke Castle

In the district of Groß Garz , two kilometers northwest of the village, on a low meadow, 700 meters south of the Zehrengraben, is a terrain that was still called "The Castle" in 1906. To the north of it was the "Dreistücken" plant, south of the terrain was the "Zur Burg" plant. According to tradition, a Gartizke castle was located here. In 1579, Christoph Entzelt reports that among the seven houses that are now devastated is also "the old Gartitzke behind Gartz".

The complex is an oval, heavily leveled 200 by 300 meter medieval moated castle with the remainder of a castle wall. Old Slavic sherds from the 9th to 10th centuries were found.

Klein Garz

The Klein Garz desert is located about 1.6 kilometers southeast of Groß Garz and 800 meters north of Jeggel on the western bank of the Zehrengraben. The first mention comes from 1431 as to Lutken Gartzee . Further mentions are 1518 and the wusten dorppe lutken Ghartzer and 1598 Lutken Garz .

First mentioned in 1290

The historian Peter P. Rohrlach points out that the older documents from 1290 to 1364, which Wilhelm Zahn Groß Garz assigned, are upside down there. They all relate to Klein Gartz near Salzwedel, which used to be called Groß Gartz .

Incorporations

On September 30, 1928, the inhabited part of the Groß Garz estate from the Osterburg district was combined with the Groß Garz rural community. The uninhabited parts were combined with the rural community of Pollitz or with the rural community of Haverland. The estate was in the southwest of the village. On April 1, 1939, the communities of Groß Garz and Haverland merged to form a community with the name of Groß Garz. The following municipalities were incorporated into the municipality of Groß Garz:

  • Jeggel on June 1, 1950
  • German on January 1, 1973
  • Lindenberg on February 1, 1974

In 1986 the community of Groß Garz had six districts - the extensions Dorfstr. were also designated as a district.

The community was on 25 July 1952 from the district Osterburg in the district Seehausen been reclassified. After its dissolution on July 2, 1965, it came to the Osterburg district and finally to the current Stendal district on July 1, 1994 .

Until December 31, 2009, Groß Garz was an independent municipality with the associated districts of German, Haverland, Jeggel and Lindenberg and belonged to the now dissolved administrative community Seehausen (Altmark) .

The councils of the communities of Gollensdorf (on January 27, 2009) and Groß Garz (on January 19, 2009) decided through a territorial change agreement that their communities should be dissolved and merged into a new community called Zehrental . This contract was approved by the county as the lower local supervisory authority and came into effect on January 1, 2010.

Deutsch, Jeggel, Groß Garz and Lindenberg became districts of Zehrental. Haverland is no longer listed in the 2013 list of municipalities and parts of municipalities .
