history
Ketzin was first mentioned in a document in 1197. Ketzin and Etzin were until 1571 in the bishopric of Brandenburg , the imperial principality of the prince-bishop of the diocese of Brandenburg and were de jure not part of the Mark Brandenburg . In 1375 it was reported in the land register of Emperor Charles IV that Ketzin had ferry rights. In 1424, a market was held for the first time at the request of shoemakers and tanners . In 1738 the Ketzin fishing guild was founded.
In the middle of the 18th century, the St. Petri Church mentioned in 1197, which had been Protestant since 1541, was replaced by a new building. Only a part of the defense tower has been preserved. Of the four bells, three are more recent; one comes from Veit Dietrich (Lorraine, 1555). In 1860 the teacher Kaselitz discovered clay under the damp meadow ground with which bricks could be made. The first potters settled down in 1865, and brick factories expanded from 1870. In 1882 there were 14 large brickworks and 13 clay pits. The castle wall to the northwest (formerly 120 × 160 m) has not been preserved. It fell victim to clay mining in 1881, with Rudolf Virchow at least ensuring that the ramparts were scientifically examined beforehand, so that many finds were preserved. The sugar factory was built in 1892 (closed in 1967). On December 13, 1893, the Ketzin - Nauen railway line was opened. Since the end of passenger traffic on May 22, 1963, only goods traffic has been operated on this route. In 1900 the boatmen's and shipbuilding guild was founded, in 1911 the converted town hall was inaugurated, and the Catholic Church was built for the Catholic community founded in 1885.
In 1917 the Späth'schen nurseries, founded by Christoph Späth at Halleschen Tor in Berlin in 1720, moved to Ketzin (from Neu-Falkenrehde). The owner at the time, Hellmut Späth , was murdered on February 15, 1945 in Sachsenhausen concentration camp . On April 25, 1945 units of the Red Army closed the ring around Berlin in Ketzin and ushered in the end of the Second World War.
In 1943, the equestrian statue of the Great Elector , which until then had stood in Berlin on the central yoke of the Kurfürstenbrücke , was dismantled to protect against the effects of war and brought to Ketzin by water on a barge . It was only in January 1946 that the prahm with the equestrian statue was towed back to Berlin and moored in the Borsighafen on Lake Tegel .
In 1964, east of Ketzin in the Knoblauch community, the GDR's first underground gas storage facility was put into operation. Various gas eruptions to the surface forced the site to be abandoned in 1966/67. The residents (1964: 460) were generously compensated and settled in Ketzin, Markee and Falkenrehde. The village, including the church, was bought and demolished by the state.
Since January 1, 2011, Ketzin has been using its old town name Ketzin / Havel again.
Administrative history
Ketzin, Etzin, Falkenrehde and Paretz belonged to the Osthavelland district since 1817 , Tremmen and Zachow to the Westhavelland district in the Prussian province of Brandenburg . In 1952 the places were incorporated into the Nauen district in the GDR district of Potsdam . They have been in the Havelland district in Brandenburg since 1993.
On July 1, 1950, the place Knoblauch was incorporated. Paretz joined on January 1, 1960. Good couples had already been incorporated into Zachow on July 1, 1950.
On May 22, 1992, Ketzin merged with four municipalities to form the Ketzin Office . The seat of the official administration was the city of Ketzin. In the course of the municipal reform in Brandenburg , the Ketzin office was dissolved again on October 26, 2003. The official municipalities Etzin, Falkenrehde, Tremmen and Zachow were incorporated into the city of Ketzin at this time.
