from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The deserted area Kamp or Campe is located in the district of Wehnde in the Eichsfeld district in Thuringia .

location

Part of the historical location of Kamp on the K202, behind it is Ecklingerode

The former place was about 1.5 kilometers northeast of Wehnde, south of Ecklingerode and west of Brehme . The place probably consisted of two local settlements, the largest part of the former district is in the municipality of Wehnde, smaller parts also in Ecklingerode and Brehme. The Kampgraben , a small tributary to the Brehme, flows through the location . Historically, the Campborn was still known. The district road 202 between Wehnde and Ecklingerode leads through the eastern part of the village.

History of the settlement

The first reliable mention of the place took place in 1305, when Eckard von Bodenstein and his mother Mechthild forego various goods that his father Rudolf sold to the Teistungenburg monastery . The Diehof or later monastery courtyard in Wehnde, the right of patronage of the church in Wehnde and an allodium , situm in villa dicta camp, were named .

In 1335 the brothers Ernst and Friedrich von Bodenstein donated interest to Campe to the Teistungenburg monastery, and in 1361 Dietrich von Rusteberg sold interest to the monastery. In 1418 the place was named with other villages in a feudal letter from the Counts of Hohnstein to the owners of the nearby Bodenstein Castle (Berld von Worbis , Hans von Wintzingerode , Heinrich Wolf and Otto von Rusteberg). The Counts of Hohnstein issued further feudal letters in the 15th to 16th centuries. In the same period, the Quedlinburg Abbey enfeoffed various gentlemen with goods in the aurea marchia , including in Camp.

In 1561 Berthold XI resisted . von Wintzingerode against claims by von Bischoffshausen in the Campe desert. In the 16th and 17th centuries there were border disputes between Wintzingerode and Westernhagen over the field mark of the deserted Campe, in 1674 the border was finally set with boundary stones.

When the place was abandoned by the residents is not known exactly. In 1418 it was probably still a village.

Origin of name

The name Kamp describes a measured piece of land or field and was used in the Middle Ages for newly gained land.

Castle site "Rundelchen"

A medieval castle is said to have been located within the boundaries of the desert, just east of the county road 202 on the southern edge of the Brehmeaue . An old map from the middle of the 19th century showed a round system with a diameter of about 40 meters. It should have been a round castle (moated castle) with a surrounding moat. A historical name for this castle is not known, it was probably only later called "Rundelchen" or "Rundei" because of its shape. The moat was filled in in the 19th century, and due to the agricultural use of the area, nothing in the landscape today reminds of the castle site. Nothing is known about a direct relationship between the castle and the former village of Kamp.

Only about two to three kilometers southwest of the Rundelchen is said to have been another castle or knight seat in the area of ​​the Lindenberg. In 1247 a silva mons Tiliarum is called and in 1283 a Conradus de Tilia , which is said to belong to a branch line of those of Westerhagen. Nothing is known about the archaeological finds of this complex in question.
