history

Local history

The area around Groß Lübbenau was settled as early as the Young Bronze Age, which is evidence of broken fragments to the northwest and west of the village. Groß Lübbenau was first mentioned in a document in 1373 as Grossen Lobin . The place name is not derived from Ľub- for dear like the name of the neighboring town Lübbenau , but rather, like the city of Lübben, is to be found in the Old Sorbian personal name Ľuba , to which the suffix -in was added. Ľuba can be understood as the short form of the name Ľubogost . The place name can therefore be translated with place of Ľuba . The addition of the name “ Groß” does not serve to distinguish it from Lübbenau, but rather to distinguish it from a village called Klein Loben that fell into desolation by the 16th century at the latest . In 1428 the place was known as the Great Lobin . The ending -aw (today -au ) was not added until 1570. The Sorbian name variants were Lubn in 1761 and Lubń in 1843 .

Nikolaus von Maltitz was named as the owner of the place in 1441. In 1452 the place was bought by the Brandenburg margrave Friedrich II and since then has formed a Brandenburg-Prussian exclave within the margraviate of Niederlausitz . In Prussia the administrative affiliation changed more often, sometimes the place was under the rule of Storkow , sometimes it was subordinate to the Gubenische Kreis . Between 1779 and 1788 Groß Lübbenau finally came into the possession of the Counts of Lynar and thus became the rule of Lübbenau . Until the middle of the 18th century, pottery was the main occupation in the place. Groß Lübbenau was a Brandenburg-Prussian exclave in the Saxon Lower Lusatia until the Congress of Vienna . After this came to the Kingdom of Prussia , the place belonged to the district of Calau .

After the end of the Second World War and the Soviet land reform, the landowners in Groß Lübbenau were expropriated and the agricultural land was converted into common property. With the Brandenburg district reform in 1950, Groß Lübbenau and other communities left the district, which was converted into the Senftenberg district, and became part of the Lübben district (Spreewald) . On July 25, 1952, the places came to the newly founded district of Calau . In 1956 the agricultural production cooperative "Goldene Ähre" was founded, which by 1960 all farmers in Groß Lübbenau had joined.

From the 1960s, lignite was mined in the area around Groß Lübbenau , and numerous neighboring places such as Seese were devastated by the adjacent opencast mines such as Seese-West . In 1986 Groß Lübbenau was affected by opencast mining itself. A part of the town was demolished by the Seese-Ost opencast mine, as a result of which 154 residents had to be resettled. 59 people were resettled within the town. About half of the village center was excavated, including the village church Groß Lübbenau and the castle. A new church was built in the village during the GDR era. The place belongs to the church district Niederlausitz . On October 26, 2003, Groß Lübbenau and the towns of Boblitz , Groß Beuchow , Bischdorf , Groß Klessow , Hindenberg , Kittlitz , Klein Radden , Leipe and Ragow were incorporated into Lübbenau / Spreewald as districts.
