In 1745 there was a farm and a dairy, a sheep farm, a watermill with a gear and a groats tamper, a cutting mill, and a vineyard is mentioned. In 1745 the forester's house Klein Wasserburg was built on the official territory , which was merged with Birkholz in 1929. In 1748 11 people lived in Groß Wasserburg. The Schmettauschen map from 1767/87 shows a pitch furnace a little east of the connecting route from Groß Wasserburg to Krausnick and roughly in the middle between the two places. In 1775 the place had a farm, a sheep farm, a grinding mill and a cutting mill; there were 14 Büdner in the place. In 1801, 26 colonists lived in Groß Wasserburg, there was a jug, a water mill and an administrative department. In 1837 the place had 24 houses. Friedrich Ludwig Buchholz was tenant of Märkisch Buchholz and Groß Wasserburg until Trinity 1808 and Krausnick until 1814 . In 1847 the Vorwerk was parceled out and leased in parcels. In the buildings of the dissolved Vorwerk and Office, a forestry department was set up in 1848 and the newly created manor district Groß Wasserburg was administered from there. In 1858 there was a dismantled water mill (grain and oil mill), 27 residential buildings, 47 farm buildings and the forestry department. There is evidence of a school in 1861. In 1871 there were 38 residential buildings, in 1900 42 houses and in 1931 50 residential buildings.

Ownership history

Krausnick and the mill were owned by the von Langen family in 1518. In 1554 Caspar von Langen sold Krausnick (with Groß Wasserburg) for repurchase after four years to his cousin Georg von Langen. In 1556 the brothers Otto and Caspar v. Langen zu Münchehofe was enfeoffed with Krausnick, Köthen, Groß Wasserburg and half of Leibsch. In 1583 these were jointly the brothers Anton and Nickel von Langen in Krausnick. They were obliged to keep a well-prepared horse. At the end of the 16th century, Antonius von Langen, the son of Otto von Langen, sat in Grosswasserburg. In 1688 Otto Joachim von Langen and his wife Christine Dorothea nee lived. from Stutterheim ad H. Kablitz in Groß Wasserburg. Their daughter, born there in 1688, married Sigismund Wilhelm von Maltitz auf Tauche in 1717. On June 15, 1728 the Brandenburg elector and king in Prussia bought Friedrich Wilhelm I. Groß Wasserburg from the brothers Heinrich Wilhelm and Kaspar Sigismund von Langen for 40,693 thalers. After acquiring Krausnick in the same year, Friedrich Wilhelm formed the Krausnick office from it , which he assigned to his rule in Königs Wusterhausen . In 1852 the Krausnick office was dissolved and administered together with the Buchholz office. The Buchholz office was also dissolved in 1872/74.

Groß Wasserburg belonged to the Storkow rulership in the late Middle Ages and early modern times and thus came to the Beeskow-Storkowische Kreis . During the district reform in 1816/17, the community came to the Teltow-Storkow district for about 20 years; after its dissolution in 1836 to the district of Beeskow. From 1950 Groß Wasserburg was assigned to the district of Lübben, which became part of the district reform of 1993 in the district of Dahme-Spreewald.

In 1848 the manor district and the rural community of Groß Wasserburg were created. In 1892 the manor districts Groß Wasserburg and Klein Wasserburg were merged to form the manor district Wasserburg, in 1910 this was renamed the manor district Kleinwasserburg. When the estate districts were dissolved in 1929, part of it was also incorporated into the community of Groß Wasserburg. After the fall of the Wall, Groß Wasserburg merged with 12 other, mostly very small, communities to form an administrative community, the Unterspreewald office with its seat in Schönwald . On December 31, 2001, the previously independent municipalities of Krausnick and Groß Wasserburg merged to form the municipality of Krausnick-Groß Wasserburg. Since then, Groß Wasserburg has been part of the municipality of Krausnick-Groß Wasserburg. On January 1, 2013, the Unterspreewald office and the Golßen office were merged to form the new Unterspreewald office with the official seat in Golßen .

The current mayor is Gerhard Buschick.
