Kieve village church

The Kieve rampart north of the village was built between the 7th and 9th centuries AD. The originally Slavic settlement appeared for the first time in a document in 1298 . The church in Kieve also dates from the 13th century.

Margrave Waldemar von Brandenburg donated the village to the Cistercian monastery Neuenkamp on the Lower Rhine as compensation for damage to the nearby monastery on Mönchsee. The Altkamper monastery ran a farm here, which is attested in a deed of donation from 1232. The date of origin is therefore December 30, 1232.
