Kade

Location in Saxony-Anhalt

Kade is a village and part of the unified municipality of Jerichow in the Jerichower Land district in Saxony-Anhalt .

geography

Within a radius of around two kilometers, the village of Kade in the far east of the Jerichower Land district is surrounded by agricultural areas that are embedded in the pine forests of the Herrenholzer and Karower forests. Kade is located on the northern slope of the Karower Platte , a plateau formed during the Ice Age. The Fiener Bruch lowlands begin a little further south . The 48.6 meter high vineyard rises 500 meters to the southwest. The Magdeburg - Berlin railway line and the Elbe-Havel Canal run just one and a half kilometers north of the town, but neither of them is of any importance to the town today. The nearest train station is in Genthin , nine kilometers away , which can be reached via county roads 1203 and 1204.

history

The first written mention of the originally Slavic place can be found in the loan register of the Archdiocese of Magdeburg from 1381. The place name developed from Caden (1420), Chade (1500) and Kahde (1562) to the current name. At the time it was first mentioned, there was probably a stone church for about a hundred years . The history of Kade is closely linked to the von Werder family, who took over the Kade, Belicke and Buchholz estates from the von Plotho family in 1486 as a so-called after fief . The manor house built at the end of the 18th century and the associated park are still in the center of the village today. Hans von Werder, who died in 1494, donated the altarpiece , which is now the most valuable inventory item, for the Kader Church . The two bells of the church from 1667 were donated by Wolf von Werder. From 1758 to 1860 the von Werder family used the crypt of the Kader Church as a burial place. It was not until 1812 that the Kade and Belicke estates were sold to the von Treskow family and passed on by them on a long lease .

Cadre Church

During the Thirty Years War (1618/48) the Buchholz estate was completely destroyed and then lay desolate for 150 years. In the course of the expansion of the Plauer Canal , begun in 1734 , the Kade lock was built, at which the Kader Schleuse district, named after it, was created. After the defeat of Prussia by Napoleon , Kade was occupied by French troops from 1806. At times up to 4,000 soldiers were stationed in the village, they misused the church square as a parade ground and after their departure they left it completely devastated. In the middle of the 19th century, lignite was discovered in the south of Kade , which was mined from 1862 to 1873 before the mine had to be closed again after a flood in 1873.

After the previously ruling Archdiocese of Magdeburg had been replaced by the secular Duchy of Magdeburg in 1680 , Kade came under Brandenburg-Prussian rule. It was administratively incorporated into the Jerichow District , after which it was divided into the Jerichow II district, which eventually became the Jerichow II district after the Prussian administrative reform of 1815 . This assignment lasted until 1952, when the GDR regional reform made Kade subordinate to the newly created district of Genthin .

On September 30, 1928, the previously independent manor districts of Belicke and Kade were combined with the rural community of Kade. The Neubuchholz settlement, which was newly created in 1819 as a colonist village instead of the Buchholz deserted area, never had an independent status.

The population development of the community was almost constant in the 20th century. In 1910 the Amt Kade had 1,011 inhabitants (including Gut Kade 4 and Gut Belicke 110), the merged municipality of Kade had 933 inhabitants in 1939, and in 1964 1,051 people lived in the village.

Until December 31, 2009, Kade was an independent municipality with the associated districts of Belicke (probably the oldest part of the place), Neubuchholz and Kader Schleuse .

On May 14th, 2009, the municipal council of Kade decided to dissolve through a change of territory agreement and to unite with 11 other municipalities to form a new unified municipality called the City of Jerichow . This contract was approved by the county as the lower local supervisory authority and came into effect on January 1, 2010.

At the same time, the Elbe-Stremme-Fiener administrative community also ceased to exist, as all former member communities merged to form the new unified community “City of Jerichow”.

politics

The last mayor of Kade was Heinz Beier.

coat of arms

Blazon : “In red on a blue shield base, a silver lamb, carrying a silver flagpole with a silver flag of the cross. In the upper left corner a silver lily with three gold stars underneath. " The coat of arms was approved on June 30, 1992 by the Ministry of the Interior.

Reasons for the coat of arms: The cross lamb is a church symbol. There is evidence that it was used in the municipal seal of Kade from 1879. It can be assumed that the use of the sheep was intended to honor sheep breeding in what was then Vorwerk Belicke, which now belongs to the municipality of Kade. The lily used in the top right corner and the three stars are symbols from the oldest color coat of arms of the Magdeburg-Brandenburg family of Werder, who were demonstrably resident in Kade or the current districts of Belicke and Buchholz from 1412 to 1812. The merits of those from Werder are based primarily on the amalgamation of the formerly independent estates Belicke, Buchholz, the desert Feldmark Jeske and Kade to form the Kade estate, as well as the donation of the valuable double-winged carved altar from the Lucas Cranach workshop in the village church of Kade. The used colors red and blue as well as the metals gold and silver correspond to the color design in the old Werder coat of arms.
