geography

Prussian round base stones in Hindenburg

Hindenburg, a clustered village with a church, is located on the southern edge of the Wische , around 20 km north of Stendal and around 7 km west of the banks of the Elbe in the Altmark .

The district of Hindenburg, the former municipality area, is mostly flat and criss-crossed by small rivers and ditches, such as the Seegraben Iden, the Hufergraben or the Balsamgraben.

Subdivision breakdown

In addition to the village of Hindenburg, the Balleierhof and Siedlung residential areas belong to the district of Hindenburg. The Hörstel residential area was north of the village, directly on the road at Seegraben Iden.

Neighboring places are Gethlingen in the west, the Försterhof and Iden in the northwest, Klein Hindenburg in the northeast, the residential area "Siedlung" and Küsel in the east, Hohenberg-Krusemark in the southeast, and Bertkow and Plätz in the southwest.

history

In 1208, the milites Reinherus et Fridericus fratres de Hindenburch were named as witnesses in a document issued in Havelberg.

The village was first mentioned in 1267 as Villa Hynnenburg , as Otto Korn announced in 1929. In villa Hinnenburg it is said in 1279 . The place was in 1283 as jhm dorffe Hindenburg in a bill of sale to the Johanniter - Commandery in Werben (Elbe) mentioned. Further mentions are 1316 in hinnenburg , 1327 ville Hinenburg , 1687 Hindenburg . In 1804 there was the village and Gut Hindenburg with a forge, two windmills and three jugs.

It is very likely that a ministerial family who appeared between 1196 and 1208 named themselves after this place, the later von Beneckendorff and von Hindenburg families .

For the year 1436 there is evidence of a dike regulation for Hindenburg and the surrounding area, which Margrave Johann von Brandenburg issued for all "who belong to the Dyks and who practice in the Drenke". During the Thirty Years War , the place suffered badly from billeting and moving through of troops. The place used to be built round. At the beginning of the 19th century, large fires in 1800, 1823 and 1834 caused considerable damage in Hindenburg. So the village was rebuilt in a different way. The former parish was the official seat for the surrounding parishes from 1874 to 1945 .

The 725th anniversary of the mentioning of the place was celebrated from June 20-22, 2008 with a community festival and a large parade, as the author of the local chronicle had determined the year 1283 as the year of the first mention.

Origin of the place name

Hindenburg is an old German name that is related to the personal name hund .

Hindenburg Castle

There is no definite evidence of the location of an eponymous castle. It is believed to be in the western part of the village on a hill protruding to the northwest immediately west of the church; it was probably an oval hilltop castle about 70 × 90 meters in diameter with a moat. In the 19th century the rampart and moat of a castle were still visible.

Incorporations

On 25 July 1952, the community from the Hindenburg was the district Osterburg in the district Osterburg reclassified. On January 1, 1973, the community of Gethlingen was incorporated into Hindenburg.

On December 31, 2008, the municipality of Hindenburg was incorporated into the municipality of Hohenberg-Krusemark . Hindenburg and Gethlingen were both districts of Hohenberg-Krusemark. So Hindenburg came as a district to Hohenberg-Krusemark, just like Klein Hindenburg , which was a district of Hindenburg until 2008.

Trivia

Legend of the werewolf in Hindenburg

In the past, there was also a belief in northern Germany that some people could turn into wolfs. The transformed was called a man-wolf or werewolf . In 1839 Jodocus Temme handed down the legend Der Währwolf in Hindenburg . In Hindenburg, a man owned a strip of leather from a wolf skin that still had hair on it. When he put it on, he had enormous strength, so that he pulled a load of hay all by himself . But he also choked the cattle and ate people. But he spared his wife. He had taught her a spell, the so-called Erbwulfereim, by which he was banned. She then unbuckled the strip and he was a sensible person.

Superstition - double suckers

Temme also reports that there was a strong belief in vampires , called double suckers, in the Hindenburg area . A piece of money is put into their mouths so that the dead do not come back from the grave.
