The Altmark village of Kemnitz, a cul-de-sac village with a church, is four kilometers southwest of Salzwedel.

history

The village was first mentioned as Camniz in 1255 , when Margrave Otto transferred some goods to the Heilig-Geist-Stift near Salzwedel. In the Landbuch der Mark Brandenburg from 1375 the village is listed as Kemnitz . It belonged to the provost of St. Marien in the old town of Salzwedel. Further mentions are 1524 kemnitze , 1541 Kemnytz , 1687 Kemnitz , 1775 Chemnitz or Kemnitz , and 1804 only Kemnitz .

During the land reform in 1945, the following were determined: One property comprised 79 hectares of land, with the property in Böddenstedt it was over 100 hectares. 33 properties had less than 100 hectares with a total of 393 hectares. The church owned 2 hectares. In 1946 80 hectares were expropriated. In 1948 there were 29 buyers from the land reform, of which 4 were new settlers.

In 1859 Johann Friedrich Danneil handed down the legend “The Wendenschlacht bei Kemnitz”: On the Hartschlag , a field width near Kemnitz, a Wendendorf south of Salzwedel, a big battle between Wends and Germans is said to have taken place. The Wendenfürst stood at the Böddenstedter Petersberg , on the border to the field mark Kemnitz and when he saw the battle to the disadvantage of his own people. Then, out of annoyance, he struck the granite block lying on the Petersberg with his sword, which is said to still bear the traces of the blow. So that the inhabitants of the village would be warned of enemies in good time, it was ordered that a guard should keep watch day and night on an oak tree in the Währsbom , a section of the field width.

Incorporations

On July 1, 1950, the communities of Kemnitz and Ziethnitz were merged to form the new community of Steinitz . On January 1, 2011, the Steinitz community was dissolved by law.
