Monchoix Castle in Harnekop

Harnekop , formerly also spelled Harnekopf and Harnecop , is a district of the municipality of Prötzel in the Märkisch-Oderland district in Brandenburg .

Harnekop is mentioned as a church village in Charles IV's land register as early as 1375 , but it became deserted in the late Middle Ages .

Later it became an independent village with an estate district , which until 1945 was in the Oberbarnim district of the Prussian province of Brandenburg and was subordinate to the Wriezen district court .

Harnekop Castle, west of the town, was blown up in April 1945, and its last remains were removed in 1970. Field Marshal Gottlieb Graf von Haeseler died here in 1919 .

About 1.5 km west of the village, at the end of the linden avenue in the forest, is the Harnekop bunker . The extensive bunker systems built in the 1970s were intended to serve as the main command post of the Ministry of National Defense (MfNV) of the GDR in the event of a war.

The place was first to be reached by post via Sternebeck . In 1964, when the new four-digit postcodes were assigned, the postal address 1311 Harnekop via Bad Freienwalde (Oder) was assigned.
