Hohensaaten is a district of Bad Freienwalde (Oder) in the Märkisch-Oderland district in Brandenburg . The previously independent municipality of Hohensaaten belonged to the Barnim district until it was incorporated .

geography

The place is located northeast of Berlin directly on the Polish border on the edge of the Lower Oder Valley National Park . The link between the Havel-Oder waterway and the Oder (see below “Waters and shipping”) is right at the location . To the west of the village, large parts of the Lünower Bauernheide belong to the district on the 20 m higher plateau .

history

Hohensaaten was first mentioned in a document in 1258. The community was last part of the Barnim district. Until October 1908 the spelling of the place was "Hohensathen".

After a year of persistent struggle by the local council and citizens, partly against the resistance of the Barnim district, the incorporation contract was signed with the town of Bad Freienwalde (Oder) on November 14, 2008 . As of January 1, 2009, the previous municipality of Hohensaaten is a district there and thus moved to the district of Märkisch-Oderland.

Waters and shipping

At Hohensaaten, two sections of the Havel-Oder waterway , the Oderhaltung , a section of the Old Oder , which continues the Oder-Havel Canal to the east, and the Hohensaaten-Friedrichsthaler waterway , are linked with each other and with the Oder by lock systems . The Havel-Oder waterway takes in all the water from the Oderbruch at the same time . There are two locks in Hohensaaten :

West lock Hohensaaten
  • The west lock provides the connection to the Hohensaaten-Friedrichsthaler waterway on the western edge of the Oder valley, into which a parallel weir also carries the water from the Oderbruch.
  • The east lock provides the connection to the main stream of the Oder on the eastern edge of the Oder valley, the water level of which is significantly higher here.

Water levels of the three bodies of water at the locks (10-year average):

  • Or position: 120 cm above sea level.
