location

Immediately to the west of Heyrothsberge is the area of ​​the state capital Magdeburg , from which the town is separated by the wide Elbe flood canal and the Ehle that runs through it. Bundesstraße 1 leads through Heyrothsberge and crosses the flood canal over a bridge. The federal highway 184 begins in the village and leads south from here to Leipzig . To the north of Heyrothsberge lies the district of Biederitz and the Heyrothsberger excavator hole .

history

In 1820 the Chaussee from Magdeburg to Möser , today's Bundesstraße 1, was built. A bridge was built over the Ehle to the west of the current location of Heyrothsberg. August Heyroth from Magdeburg was a frequent guest in a newly opened restaurant . In this area were the Fuchsberge , a large sand dune that stretched as far as Gommern . The remainder of such a shifting dune, the Fuchsberg , is preserved in Gommern . In 1848 Heyroth opened a gravel pit south of Biederitz, on the road in the direction of Zerbst, and mined the sand from the dune. The settlement developing in this area was named Heyrothsberge, after which the area was initially called Heyroths Sandberge . Heyroth is said to have had the ambition to give the area his name. At no point did Heyrothsberge form its own municipality, but remained a district of Biederitz. In the spring of 1927 the Heyrothsberge 26 sports club was founded, to which the SV Union Heyrothsberge , which exists today, goes back. As Dynamo Heyrothsberge , the club was one of the first clubs in the GDR to set up a badminton department. In 1938, the Heyrothsberge fire brigade school was founded on the north side of Heyrothsberg . The State Fire Brigade Association Saxony-Anhalt eV was re-established at this school on December 15, 1990 .

Together with Biederitz and municipalities in the area, Heyrothsberge came to the newly formed unit municipality of Biederitz on January 1, 2010.

coat of arms

Blazon : “Above the golden Dreiberg covered with three (1,2) red bricks and a blue corrugated shield base split in silver-red, on the front of the Dreiberg a red tower with cantilevered circumference and seven (1,2,2,2) black window openings, at the back one Slanted silver pine branch on the left with a cone. "

The coat of arms of Heyrothsberge is the coat of arms of a non-independent district , which was registered and documented in the German HEROLD's coat of arms on February 27, 2015 under the registry 38 ST . It was donated by the Friends of the Heyrothsberge Voluntary Fire Brigade eV in order to use it as a symbol of the local-local identity outside of official acts. The design was done by the municipal heraldist Jörg Mantzsch , who carried out the certification. The tower in the coat of arms refers to the water tower as the landmark of the place, the pine branch to the natural surroundings, while the Dreiberg symbolizes the ice age sand dune, the three bricks the former brickworks and the corrugated shield base the location on the Ehle and the Elbe flood canal symbolize.

On May 6, 2015, the donor of the coat of arms transferred the rights of use to the local council at a festive event.
