Fürstenwalde-Süd is one of three districts of the Brandenburg city of Fürstenwalde / Spree . It was created in 1950 with the incorporation of Ketschendorf (Spree) ( Lower Sorbian Ketšojce ) to Fürstenwalde. It is formed from the former Ketschendorfer municipality area and the Spreevorstadt and Westend districts, which had previously belonged to the city of Fürstenwalde . Since the former Fürstenwalder Viertel only made up about one sixth of the area of the district, the southern district is often incorrectly equated with the former Ketschendorf, also because the border on Rauener Strasse is no longer noticeable today.
location
The southern district is located south of the Mitte district. The Fürstenwalder Spree forms the border between the districts, with the Spree islands belonging to the Mitte district. The municipality of Langewahl is located in the southeast , and Petersdorf (municipality of Bad Saarow ) borders the district to the south . In the south-west, Grenzstrasse and Bergschlößchenweg form the border with the Rauen districts of Stadtberg and Westend . The name Westend has "jumped" from the Fürstenwalder Viertel to the Rauener side. To the west of the district is the Fürstenwalder district Südwest (Rauensche Ziegelei).
history
For centuries, Ketschendorf was in different domains than Fürstenwalde. It once belonged to Bohemia , later to Saxony . Also in the province of Brandenburg it belonged to the district of Beeskow-Storkow in the administrative district of Potsdam , while Fürstenwalde was in the district of Lebus in the administrative district of Frankfurt .

Ketschendorf emerged as an anger village on the road from Fürstenwalde to Beeskow via Neu Golm and Herzberg . The village was then over a kilometer from the Spree. The street, which was called Ketschendorfer Chaussee until 1891 , then Chausseestraße , has been named after August Bebel since 1953 and is still the central street of the district. The form of the meadow with the village pond is still recognizable today. The former manor house on the Anger, also known as the “castle”, later became the seat of the Ketschendorfer municipal administration and is now the seat of the Fürstenwalde police station, which is responsible for the Oder-Spree district and the city of Frankfurt (Oder) .
The development of Ketschendorf began with industrialization . The construction of the first ring kiln by the Fürstenwalder master mason Carl Arnold in 1839 must be regarded as a historically significant event . The ring furnace was located immediately to the east of what was then the Spree crossing. Due to its novel functional principle, bricks could be produced in consistent quality and in large quantities. The ring furnace existed until 1913 when it had to give way to the construction of the Fürstenwalde lock.
In Ketschendorf, the Viktoria stove tile factory, the Nora typewriter works, an office furniture and imitation leather factory as well as some brickworks and shipyards are occupied. The most important companies were the Adolf Schwarz & Co drive belt factory (ASUCO) and the Deutsche Kabelwerke (DEKA) plant. DEKA began producing tires in 1940, thus establishing a production tradition that still exists today. Tire production was continued after the Second World War , and at the end of the sixties the tire factories of the GDR were merged with the Pneumant brand in the Fürstenwalde tire combine.
With the industrial operations, the need for living space increased and the community grew. Above all, the north-western and northern areas in the direction of the Spree and the municipal borders with Rauen and Fürstenwalde were settled, while the industrial companies are mainly located in the northeast. The Chausseestraße stands with their relatively dense and high building from the otherwise mostly with single-family homes out built-up areas. In 1911 Ketschendorf got a breakpoint on the newly built Fürstenwalde – Beeskow circuit .
In the early 1920s, a small settlement near the train station was built for the employees of the cable works. In the 1930s, a motorway was built through the municipality in the southern area (today A 12 ). In Ketschendorf, the “Fürstenwalde” motorway exit (now Fürstenwalde West) was created, which brought additional life to the place. A type gas station was built at the exit , which is the last of its kind in Germany today and is a listed building.
During the National Socialist era, there was a satellite camp of the Sachsenhausen concentration camp on Alten Petersdorfer Strasse . After the Second World War , the Ketschendorf special camp was established here as a Soviet special camp in which thousands of prisoners died. Many of the victims were buried in the Halbe forest cemetery.
In the course of a series of administrative changes in the young GDR , Ketschendorf was incorporated into Fürstenwalde on July 1, 1950. Together with the Fürstenwalde parts south of the Spree, it has since formed the new Fürstenwalde-Süd district .
Spreevorstadt and Westend
The Spree was a border river in this area for centuries. Since the city also had areas south of the Spree, it was therefore in two countries. The planned development of the areas south of the river did not take place until the 20th century.
Similar to Fürstenwalde-Nord , the road network was also developed here based on the existing routes to Braunsdorf / Spreenhagen , Markgrafpieske and Storkow via Rauen . Today's Erich-Weinert-Straße (formerly Hermann-Löns-Straße ) marks the course of the former coal railway from the Rauener Mountains to the loading port on the Spree. It can also be seen as the separation between the Spreevorstadt (east) and the west end.
The New Cemetery was laid out in the 1920s at the western end of the Fürstenwald district . Today this is the main cemetery of the city.
Situation today
In the GDR , there were hardly any large housing estates because of the rather limited availability of space. So only the tire factory settlement was compacted and the Paul-Frost-Ring was created as the only new building area . After the fall of the Wall , a larger complex with apartment buildings was built west of the Paul-Frost-Ring. At the Bettina von Arnim Street and the southern end of Broad Street arisen housing settlements . The focus of the new buildings in the south is the classic single family home. To this day, undeveloped areas are being developed as building plots , whereby this is limited to the open spaces north of the motorway.
Significant buildings
Martin Luther Church

Ketschendorf belonged to the parish Rauen . The residents of Ketschendorf once had to go to church in the neighboring village, which is more than three kilometers away - the street name Rauener Kirchweg still testifies to this today .
As early as 1896 there were plans for a church of its own, but financing issues let them fail. Finally, a church building association was founded in 1904 to collect money for the construction. The foundation stone of the Ketschendorfer Church was laid on June 27, 1909, and the ceremonial consecration took place on September 16, 1910 . The lack of clarity in connection with the construction of the church is also responsible for the curiosity that the church was not built in Kirchstrasse , but in Schillerstrasse , which runs southwards .
The parish became independent on April 1, 1915, the first pastor was Johannes Aisch until he retired due to illness . Under Aisch's successor, the provisional pastor Heine, a parish hall next to the church was completed in 1934, which was named after the reformer Martin Luther . After the incorporation of Ketschendorf, the name was also transferred to the church in 1951.
Samaritan institutions
In 1895, the Fürstenwalder pastor Albert Burgdorf bought several pieces of land in Ketschendorf on what was then Chausseestrasse in order to meet the increasing demand for care places for the mentally handicapped. Three years earlier he began in Fürstenwalde with the promotion of disabled people through learning and work offers tailored to their individual skills. This was the cornerstone of the later Samaritan institutions , which to this day have many institutions spread across the entire city area.
The area on Chausseestrasse (later August-Bebel-Strasse) was subsequently expanded and built on several times, and the range of options was continuously expanded. The characteristic street front with buildings from 1895 and the church completed in 1925 has become a landmark of the institutions and the district.
Companies
The east of the southern district is characterized by the industrial settlement of the tire manufacturer Goodyear ( Pneumant ) and various medium-sized companies. The electricity and gas network operator E.DIS is also based here. The “Duktil Guss Fürstenwalde” foundry is located on Saarower Chaussee in the southern area.
