history

Early to the 17th century

There is evidence that the region was already settled in the 2nd to 5th centuries, as excavations in Klein Köris have shown. Groß Köris came under the influence of Schenk von Landsberg in the 14th century , who over the centuries - from 1330 to 1717 - created a sphere of influence in the region in the southern Margraviate of Brandenburg . The place was first mentioned in 1546 as the Great Kuriss . In 1624 it consisted of ten hooves , on which there were eight Kötterhöfe and a shepherd. The Schulze paid one thaler and 18 groschen of taxes, the Kötter one thaler each, as did the Kruger - so there must have already been a jug . In the Thirty Years' War Gross Koris was hit hard. In 1652 only three farmers and four kötter lived in the village.

18th century

Groß Köris recovered and so the number of residential buildings had grown to 10 gables (= residential houses) in 1711. There was again a shepherd, a shepherd and four pairs of householders. They gave four groschen dues for each of the eleven hooves. The line of taverns died out in 1721 with Ludwig-Alexander Schenk von Landsberg and the property came to the Prussian kingdom through a purchase by Friedrich Wilhelm I. However, there were probably only a few kötter and farmers who lived in a street village in Groß Köris at that time . In 1943 there were 14 "residents equalized by the Princely Chamber" and a jug. In 1752, ten farmers lived in Groß Köris, four Ganzkötter including the Kruger, and two small Kötter including the Schulzen. According to tradition, the Wilhelminenhof was built in 1753 northeast of the village center - and thus at the time of Friedrich II . In addition, further farmsteads were built in the district of Groß Köris. In 1771 the stock of 16 gables had grown. There was a shepherd, 1.5 pairs of householders who tended 17 hooves and gave four groschen for each. The local area also included four hooves that were originally intended for soldering. In 1786, by order of Friedrich Wilhelm II, craftsmen built a hand-operated drawbridge with a bridge keeper's house between the Großer Moddersee and the Schulzensee.

19th century

In 1801 there were 16 whole farmers, five Büdner, 15 residents and a jug in Groß Köris. For the first time a forestry appeared; the place had 15 fire places (= households). In 1816 the peasant liberation was also enforced in Groß Köris . Instead of taxes in kind, taxes were now paid to the Prussian state, which the farmers and fishermen of Groß Köris had to pay. During this time, their buildings were built on both sides of Dorfstrasse (later Hauptstrasse, in the 21st century Lindenstrasse) around a village square with a jug . In 1840 there were 16 farms and 17 residential buildings in the village, in which a total of 249 residents lived. In 1858 there were 16 farm owners with Wilhelminenhof as well as one tenant who employed ten servants and maidservants. There were also 25 part-time farmers with a total of 42 properties. The largest property was 353 acres. Another 16 were between 30 and 300 acres, totaling 2,453 acres. Twelve properties were between 5 and 30 acres in size (162 acres together), and 13 others were under five acres. In 1860, road builders built the first paved connection between Königs Wusterhausen and Märkisch Buchholz, which was renamed Reichsstraße in 1937 and later Bundesstraße 179 . In the same year there were two public, 41 residential and 44 farm buildings in the village. In addition, there was the forester's house Groß Köris with a bridge keeper's house as well as two residential and four farm buildings. From 1869 the local students could be taught in a specially constructed building; Before that, lessons took place in a school yard , which, according to tradition, also included a cowshed and a pigsty. However, there was not yet a church of its own. The believers had to walk a six-kilometer sandy path through the forest to get to the Heilig-Geist-Kirche in Teupitz . In 1894, the place consisted of the village, the train station, two railway keeper's houses and the community district with the residential areas Am Pätzersee, Am Rohga, Etablissement Rankenheim, Am Schulzensee, Etablissement Auf dem Ackerplan, Bridge keeper establishment, Kalkhofen and Wilhelminenhof. Klein Köris has been linked to Groß Köris by a road since 1896. Previously there was only one ferry connection, which was abandoned in 1930. A year later the station opened on the Berlin – Görlitz railway line . The farmers were now able to transport their products to Berlin by rail , as well as raw materials from the region that were just as important as wood and clay. In the same year, the villa colony on the Great Karbuschsee and the fishing abbey Neubrück were added to the place.

In the year there were 86 houses in Groß Köris; the stock grew to 158 houses in 1931. During this time, more and more travelers came from Berlin who were not only looking for local recreation on the weekend, but also built representative villas in the outskirts on the lakes. The artists Josef Kremo and Sylvester Schäffer junior were among the new residents . In addition to artists, it was also water sports enthusiasts who came to the city after 1900. Restaurants and private accommodation for tourists emerged. New streets grew between the station building and the drawbridge, where tradespeople, workers and employees, but also retirees, settled. In the next few years a tailor's shop, a roofer, a blacksmith's shop and a hairdresser's shop opened. There was also a bakery, five restaurants and a grocery store and, in 1912, a building and furniture joinery. By 1910 the stock had grown to 117 residential buildings. The new district around Chausseestrasse developed more urban features in contrast to the older town center, which was characterized by the village. But more and more craftsmen also settled in the historical core. The population continued to grow and with it the desire for a church of their own. 1914 - the post office was turned into a post office III. Class upgraded - so craftsmen began building the Christ Church . It was built according to plans by Georg Büttner by the architect Hans Palm in the Heimat style until 1916. Since the royal court chamber refused to provide a plot of land in the royal forest - and thus in the vicinity of the historic village center - the community used a plot of land south of the drawbridge. In the course of the consecration of the church , the adjoining path from the old to the new village was renamed Kirchstraße . The herringbone pavement of the street is made of yellowish bricks made in the region. In 1919 a fittings factory opened. In 1921 the place was connected to the electrical power grid. 1925 - Groß Köris now has 158 residential buildings - a dentist settled in the village, and in 1931 a general practitioner. Between the second half of the 1920s and the beginning of the 1930s, another weekend settlement, the Sandberg , was built between the train station and the Schulzensee . The site was parceled out and the majority of it was sold to citizens of Berlin, who had arbors and weekend houses built there.

In 1928 around 117 hectares of the Teupitz Schloss estate district were incorporated into the Groß Köris community. A year later, parts of the Königs Wusterhausener Forst estate, around 1081 hectares of the Mochheide, also came to the place. In 1932 Groß Köris consisted of the residential areas Rankenheim, Forsthaus Rohga, Teupitz-Groß Köris train station, Wilhelminenhof and the settlements Am Ackerplan, Am Großer Roßkardtsee, Am Güldensee, Am Karbuschsee, Am Kleine Roßkardtsee, Am Pätzersee and Am Schulzensee. In 1936 a lido with a pier and a diving platform opened at Schulzensee. At the same time, a number of campsites were built on the Klein Köriser See and Schweriner See.

During the Second World War , the site was partially badly damaged by the effects of the war: the school burned down in April 1945, and German soldiers blew up the drawbridge. Continuous boat traffic was initially no longer possible. In the course of the land reform , 147 hectares of land were expropriated and 145 hectares of which were redistributed. 84 farmers received a total of 34 hectares, seven farms a total of 95 hectares and 14 old farmers received an additional 17 hectares. The fragmentation also led to the establishment of a Type I LPG in Groß Köris in 1953, which was converted into a Type III in Wilhelminenhof in 1956. In 1955 it had six members who farmed 32 hectares of agricultural land. The population rebuilt the city in the 1950s and opened a youth hostel in 1951. During the GDR era, the central pioneer holiday campEnver Hodscha ” was located near Klein Köris on the Hölzernen See . The carrier company was VEB Elektrokohle Berlin-Lichtenberg . At the Großer Roßkardtsee there was another holiday camp since 1952 with " Heinrich Rau ". In addition, there were seven holiday homes during the high season, for example that of the Oberspree cable works . In addition to these centrally controlled leisure facilities, numerous weekend houses were built - preferably on the banks of the lakes. Water tourism revived; numerous restaurants advertised for vacationers and tourists. In 1950 there were the expansion of the residential areas with the forester's house Rankenheim, Künstleriedlung and Wilhelminenhof. In 1963 a new school opened. This was preceded by numerous efforts that lasted until the 1950s, but were postponed due to limited resources in “building capacity and building materials”. In 1960 a school barrack burned down, so that a new building had to be built soon. In the same year LPG Type III already had 22 members and an area of ​​98 hectares. There was also a Type I LPG with ten members and an area of ​​64 hectares. In 1968 the LPT Type III merged with the LPG in Löpten. Klein Köris and Neubrück were incorporated into Groß Köris on March 1, 1970, and Löpten was added on October 26, 2003. In 1973 there was the VEB Bau, the Combine Locks and Fittings Döbeln with the operating part in Groß Köris, the VEB Mechanische Werkstätten and the district foresters' Groß Köris and Schwerin based in Groß Köris.

After the fall of the Wall , the holiday homes, the central pioneer camp and the children's holiday camps closed. Tourism collapsed and with it the jobs of numerous residents of Groß Köris. To promote tourism, a tourism association was founded in 1992, the forerunner of Schenkenlandtourist e. V. Hotels were modernized, guesthouses were once again attracting visitors. In 1993 a discounter opened near the train station , which was expanded to include a petrol station in 2000. In 1996 the Camping Club Schweriner See e. V. , who had successfully campaigned against the closure of the campsite. A multi-purpose hall has been available to the population since 1998.

21st century

New construction of the Groß Köris volunteer fire brigade

In 2002, a cycle path was created between Groß Köris and Klein Köris and thus a continuous connection from the train station to Löpten. The volunteer fire brigade has been able to use its new fire station since 2005 .
