geography
Huckstorf lies along a glacial valley of the Beke, which, however, is not the same as the one flowing through Schwaan. The village extends over 2.5 kilometers to the Warnow . The highest elevations in the vicinity are the Ziegelberg and Bullenberg with 33.6 and 33 m above sea level, respectively . NHN .
history
The origin of the place name has not been proven. Several interpretations are possible, including the word "huk" ("angle" or "corner") or "hucke", which u. a. "Vault", "hill" means and would refer to the hilly landscape around Huckstorf.
Huckstorf was created during the German settlement in the 13th century. Like the other two community villages, Huckstorf was laid out as a farming village. In terms of the village shape, it is a sack village and the special type is a cul-de-sac village (a village street with alleys on both sides). It was first mentioned as "Hukesdorpe" in a document from the Rostock Council Archives on December 16, 1314. In the first mention, Heinrich II of Mecklenburg testified that Otto von Rethwisch pledged the village to Gerlach and Willekin von Baumgarten . In the following centuries several changes of ownership took place. At the end of the 15th century, Huckstorf belonged to a gentleman named Katzow, who sold the village to the Jakobikirche in Rostock in 1499 .
With the Reformation in Mecklenburg, secularization began very soon . H. the property of the Catholic Church was converted to secular, i.e. ducal property. So the two farming villages Pölchow and Huckstorf came into the possession of the ducal house. The farmers were employed as time leaseholders, they worked in the fields and looked after the cattle, but they did not own land or cattle, not even the household and farm equipment. Huckstorf probably survived the Thirty Years' War relatively unscathed. The ownership changed in the 18th century when some of the ducal leasehold farms were sold. In the course of time, smaller farms, the cottages, also emerged in Huckstorf .
The old country road from Rostock to Güstrow used to pass Huckstorf. This enabled a jug economy as a resting place for passengers and horses of the stagecoach. The “Krüger point” is shown in the plan from 1796. Even after the stagecoach era there was a jug. It is known from 1917 and 1921 that the blacksmith ran a grocery store and a jug.
After the postal route lost its importance after 1844, the road was poorly maintained and it was not until the 1930s that the route was paved at the instigation of the Wahrstorfer landowner.
On July 1, 1950, Huckstorf was incorporated into Pölchow.
railroad
From 1845 the construction of the Hagenow-Schwerin-Bad Kleinen-Bützow-Rostock line began, which also cut through the field marks of the village of Huckstorf. After delays, the line was ceremoniously handed over on May 13, 1850, but it was not until December 17, 1948 that Huckstorf received a stop on the line that had previously been dismantled and rebuilt in 1948. This stop is primarily used for commuters and rush hour traffic from the community and the neighboring town of Benitz, and initially also to the village of Damm on the other side of the Warnow.
shipping
After regulatory measures on the Warnow, a steamship operated between Rostock and Schwaan from 1863 until the beginning of the 20th century. Above all, it transported grain and sugar beets, but was not very economical and so steam shipping was discontinued. Bricks, peat and agricultural products as well as coal from Rostock for brick production were also transported to Huckstorf on smaller transport ships. After the Warnow became a drinking water protection area in the 1960s, motorized shipping had to be stopped.
school
The first mentions of a school date back to 1816. Today's schoolhouse was built in 1863 or 1864. From 1867 to 1930 the school was continuously called " Industrial School ". The teachers who teach here often taught in this building for decades. As is customary in the country and necessary because of the poor pay of the teachers, the building included several meadows, arable land and an animal population. The sports field belonging to the school was relocated in 1927. The school was single-class until 1945, the active school operation continued until 1960, since then the Huckstorf students have attended the school in Papendorf.
Brick trade and peat extraction
The first official evidence of a brickworks dates back to 1854. The company was established on Hufe 4. The Wahrstorfer inspector, who already ran the brickworks on the Wahrstorfer Gut, acquired the land in 1850 as a hereditary lease. There was extensive clay and peat deposits on them that the leaseholder wanted to make usable. He planned a kiln to be fired with coal and a dry barn. This was officially approved. Since the weather did not always allow the blanks to dry, brick production was limited seasonally. For heat generation in the kiln, however, the peat resources, which also occur on the leasehold, were used with official permission. The bricks produced were transported by handcart to the nearby Warnow, where they were then shipped. The Huckstorfer brickworks existed until 1885. During this time the large peat deposits were not exhausted. The peat store was not used commercially until the 20th century. In 1919 a peat entrepreneur from Lübeck leased the peat bog and, together with a business partner, founded the Huckstorf Presstorfwerk Volker & Sander to produce Presstorf. This operation only existed for a short time.
Population development
In 1704 there were 35 inhabitants in Huckstorf. The number increased to 80 by 1817, and before the Second World War the number of inhabitants grew to 119 (1925). After that it remained constant at around 80. After the fall of the Wall in 1989, there was an increased influx of people from Rostock, so that the number of residents grew to around 200 by 2005.
Transport links
The place is connected to the network of the S2 line of the Rostock S-Bahn . The train stop is not handicapped accessible and is in zone 8 of the Warnow transport association . The trains run every hour on weekdays in the direction of Rostock and Güstrow via Schwaan. The S-Bahn stops every 2 hours on weekends and on public holidays.

particularities
The Berlin – Copenhagen cycle path runs through Huckstorf . Since 1997 there has been an ecological housing estate in the village. The estate, designed for 24 houses, was the first of its kind in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and was awarded the Schwerin State Parliament's environmental prize in 2000.
