Kützkow [ kʏʦˈkoː ] is part of the municipality of the city of Havelsee in the Potsdam-Mittelmark district in the state of Brandenburg and is part of the Beetzsee office . In 2002 the town of Pritzerbe , to which Kützkow had belonged since 1950, voluntarily merged with the town of Briest , Fohrde and Hohenferchesar to form the town of Havelsee, to which the village of Marzahne moved in 2008 . Kützkow is the only part of the municipality west of the Havel . Kützkow is enclosed on three sides, west, north and east, by the nature reserve Untere Havel Süd .
history
The Havelsee area was already inhabited by people in prehistoric times. On the basis of archaeological finds, settlements in the area have been proven since the Middle Stone Age at the latest . In the area of the Pritzerber See, numerous artefacts made of bones and antlers that could be dated to the Upper Paleolithic or Mesolithic times were excavated . For example, points, bony fish hooks and a buzzing device were found. Graves from the late Roman Empire were found near Kützkow.
In his work Germania , Tacitus describes the area east of the Elbe up to the Oder as a settlement area of the Suebian tribe of the Semnones . Apart from a few remaining groups, the Semnones left their old settlement area on the Havel in the direction of the Rhine before or at the latest during the time of the migration of peoples from the 3rd or 4th century . From the 6th century onwards, Slavic tribes came from the east to the area that had been largely empty of settlement for around one hundred and fifty years after the Germans had emigrated. Remnants of the Germanic population went into the Slavic majority population.
Kützkow emerged as a village on the Havel across from Pritzerbe a few centuries later. The name of the place is derived from a Slavic name and means about the place of residence of a man named Kucek . Kützkow was mentioned for the first time as Cusk and later as Kuczkow in the Magdeburg feudal registers after 1368. At that time it was the feudal property of various vassals. In the registers, the families von Zille, von dem Werder and vom Rosenberg were named. In 1400 the entire village was in the fiefdom of the vom Rosenberg family, before parts of it came temporarily to the Brandenburg Cathedral Chapter in the further course of the 15th century. In 1480 the von Lochow family owned the property; In 1585 the manor went to the von Plotho family for thirty-five years before it changed into the personal possession of the Magdeburg canon Christoph von Görne in 1620 . In 1625 Kützkow was declared his and his family's fiefdom . This included the Prussian finance minister Friedrich von Görne , who left Kützkow in exchange for the rule of Plaue in 1710 , while his nephew Lewin Werner von Görne moved from Plaue to the manor. According to records from 1742, a sheep farm, a mill, a brewery and a distillery belonged to the place at that time. The von Görne family managed the estate until 1782.
From 1783 to 1805 Countess Caroline von Eickstedt -Peterswald was the owner of the village and the manor. This donated 155,000 thalers a poor legate for the villages of Kützkow, Tieckow and Bahnitz .
In 1815, after the Wars of Liberation and the associated political changes, the Prussian province of Saxony was founded in Prussia , whose border in the Havelsee area was the river. In contrast to the other areas of today's city, Kützkow came to Saxony because it lies on the west bank. A year later, in 1816, the district of Jerichow II was founded within Saxony , to which Kützkow belonged until it was incorporated into Pritzerbe.
Countess Eickstedt's grandson, a Herr von der Reck , sold the estate in 1818 to a Herr Paalzow, who also acquired the neighboring Wendeburg, who was followed in 1857 by a Baron von Schnehen . The estate remained in the possession of this family until it was expropriated by the land reform in the Soviet occupation zone in 1945.
On September 30, 1928, the manor district Kützkow was united with the rural community Kützkow. After the First World War, Julius Wilhelm Ferdinand Ebeling was tenant of the manor in Kützkow until 1933. The population of the community was 149 in 1933 and 179 in 1939. Kützkow had a castle until 1945, which burned down shortly after the end of the Second World War and was not rebuilt. On July 1, 1950, the municipality of Kützkow was incorporated into the city of Pritzerbe and belonged to the state of Brandenburg or, in the meantime, to the Potsdam district. After the Second World War and the founding of the GDR in 1949, Kützkow and all of the districts that are now part of Havelsee were assigned to the Brandenburg district in 1952, which was added to the Potsdam-Mittelmark district in 1993 and thus to the new Potsdam district, which existed until 1990.
Havel ferry
The Pritzerbe ferry , which is not free, runs between the Pritzerbe and the Kützkow part of the municipality . A ferry connection at this point has been in existence since 1385 at the latest, when it was first mentioned in a document. In the early centuries the Fährkähne were first over the Havel punted . Since the late 18th century, changes of ownership of the ferry were recorded in the town's land registers. In 1788, the ferryman Johann Friedrich Hartwig acquired the rights to the ferry connection from the Royal Chamber of War and Domains in Magdeburg. These rights came to the merchant August Wilhelm Friedrich Hartwig through inheritance in 1818 and to his widow Caroline Friederike, née Hintze, in 1834. She sold her rights in 1855 to the merchant Wilhelm Gottlieb Robert Hartwig. In 1883, the district president of Diesberg approved a chain or cable ferry. An annual recognition fee of five Reichsmarks was charged for operating the ferry on a ferry cable . On December 27, 1922, the ferry was sold to the manor owners Gustav von Schnehen from Kützkow and Botho von Knoblauch from Buschow and to the businessman Friedrich Stimming from Pritzerbe in equal shares. On July 3, 1925, the Pritzerbe-Kützkow e. V. Pritzerbe the ferry. On September 7, 1932, the town of Pritzerbe became the owner.
At the end of the Second World War, the ferry was blown up by German troops, so that a new ferry had to be procured after the war. The tenants were Wilhelm Schwarz, Fritz Dammasch and Walter Wernsdorf, who worked in three shifts. The new ferry was led on two ropes and pulled with so-called wooden clamps. Towards the end of the 1950s, a motorized ferry was used for the first time, which was powered by a single-cylinder diesel engine until 1990. In connection with an increase in the rent after the ferry was motorized, the leases were given up. The operator was initially the city of Pritzerbe and is now the city of Havelsee. Schwarz and Dammasch later gave up the ferry service, Walter Wernsdorf worked as a ferryman in the service of the city of Pritzerbe. In 1990 the ferry was replaced by a new building powered by a diesel engine. This motor acts via a coupling on sprockets on a long chain laid across the river. The ferry vehicle pulls itself on this chain over the Havel. A wire rope serves as a guide and safety device. Four ferrymen are currently employed by the municipality. In the summer months with the greatest number of passengers, up to 500 people and 100 vehicles are crossed every day.
