Geesterhof and Hof Kallmeter

Originally there was only one single courtyard on today's street, the Geesterhof .

The Geesterhof was mentioned in a file in 1608 as Noch zur Geest with Scharbeuster in the Beritt Seehausen ... only scattered farms, everyone goes to Groß Beuster's church . In 1789 there was not enough space in the noble Guth Gesterhof . There is a manager or sub-tenant, two householders or residents. In 1804 there is the noble Geisterhof or Geesterhof estate along with a granny. In 1820 Eickhof and Geesterhof are two merged estates. In 1840 the Geesthof is a free estate .

In 1876 Peter Kallmeter bought the Geesthof as farm no. 5 in Geestgottberg . His son Karl followed him after he had sold his parents' windmill in Auf dem Sande in 1885 . The Kallmeter farm is still owned by the family today.

prehistory

Johann Marchal reported at the beginning of the 20th century: In the Geest in Geestgottberg, settlement sites with traces of the end of the Bronze Age and the beginning of the Iron Age were found between courtyards 1 and 6. In Geestgottberg, south of the footpath, east of courtyard no. 6, which belonged to Kurt Kallmeter in 1939, some urns were found and sent to the Berlin Ethnographic Museum . Wilhelm Fascher added at the end of the 20th century: On the higher-lying field of the farmer Kurt Kallmeter in Geestgottberg, some urns with corpse fire were found and recovered in the 1930s. These finds are assigned to the late Bronze Age or the early Iron Age.
