Hühnerland is a district of the municipality of Prislich in the southwest of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.
location
The place is six kilometers southeast of the city of Grabow directly on the state border with Brandenburg. The next neighboring town on the Brandenburg side is Klein Warnow, which belongs to the Karstädt municipality . The environs of Hühnerland are mainly characterized by arable land, which is followed by larger, contiguous deciduous forests in the north and east. The Meynbach flows south of Hühnerland, which forms a bifurcation from here , which means that the water is drained east into the Tarnitz and west into the Alte Elde . The straightened stream in the Hühnerland area has the appearance of a drainage ditch due to the improvement work.
The municipality of Prislich is cut through by the Hamburg-Berlin railway line . Aside from the small Marienhof residential area, Hühnerland is the only part of the village that lies south of this line. A connecting road to the Werle district was cut off by closing the level crossing after the rail line had been expanded. Instead, a road built parallel to the railway line has since led to a new bridge near Neese, which was also being expanded . Klein Warnow train station, one kilometer away , was closed in 1994. The closest stations on this route for passenger transport are the Grabow and Karstädt stations .
history
A place called Hunrelant was mentioned as early as 1275, the current spelling can be found in a document from 1515. The Hünerland spelling has also been handed down from later centuries . The place probably had some importance as a knight's seat for a long time. In a report from the year 1853 this is justified by the fact that the noble family von Winterfeld , who had lived in the village for several centuries , had to provide the Mecklenburg dukes with two knight horses.
At the beginning of the 16th century, the already not too large district was divided up. The western part fell to the von Zicker family and around 1522 to Georg von der Jahn auf Neese . Here, Neese's side courtyard was built, which was later named Marienhof .
Until the 18th century, according to other sources until 1698, the von Winterfeld family owned the Hühnerland estate. From 1785 onwards, the gentlemen were the von Ditten auf Werle family, the von Restorff family from 1810 and the von Levetzows family from the beginning of the 20th century . In a marriage certificate from 1904 between Richard Kadei and Elisabeth Jäger, Hans Kratzenberg was listed as a witness and manor owner, who lived in Hühnerland, Mecklenburg. Remnants of the manor house and the associated farm buildings have not existed since the middle of the 20th century.
In 1766 Hühnerland was "incorporated" into Werle and lost its independence. Until the incorporation of Werle into Prislich on June 12, 2004, Hühnerland was part of the Werle community.
