Klepps is a district of Möckern in the Jerichower Land district in Saxony-Anhalt .

geography

The place is 4 kilometers south-southwest of Loburg , 9 kilometers southeast of Möckern and 24 kilometers southeast of Burg , the district town of the Jerichower Land district.

history

The place was first mentioned in 1297 in a document in which an Albert von Cleps was named as a witness. In documents still referred to as Kleps in 1380, the place is recorded around 1400 as Klepczk and in 1563 in a loan letter as Kleptzk.

In the 17th century the manor and village were owned by the von Arnim family . In 1757 the von Barby family took over the estate. The official gazette of the royal government of Magdeburg made in an Extraordinary Enclosure a special record of contributions received for those who had died in floods in East and West Prussia and the like. a. the amount of a civil servant named cemetery in Kleps known.

In 1836 the estate fell to the Klepp family. In the historical-geographical-statistical-topographical handbook of the Magdeburg administrative district from 1842, the church village and the manor Kleps eligible for state assembly is described. In 1782 there were 52 Protestant residents here, in 1818 63 and in 1842 a total of 70 Protestant residents, who were mainly employed as day laborers on the estate and whose children had to go to school in Hobeck .

In addition to the manor with 1600 acres of fields, meadows and garden land, the landowner Klepp and thus the competent court lord of the place also owned the nearby brickworks. In addition, the place had a Protestant church, which was a side church of Hobeck and a total of ten houses with 27 acres of fields and two acres of gardens.

As a result, the estate was continued by the Kaeufer-Klepp family from 1899 and passed to the Luther family in 1913. The Klepps manor district was dissolved on September 30, 1928 and incorporated into Hobeck. Hobeck has been a part of Möckern since January 1st, 2009 .

Attractions

The church, which was very elaborately built for the small town, was built in the late Romanesque period. The building consists of the rectangular nave, the flat, rectangular, narrower choir and a semicircular apse , both of which are eastern extensions. The west tower, in the full width of the nave, was originally only the height of the church roof. In 1901 a bell storey was added to it, which, in contrast to all other parts of the building, which were built from field stones, is made of bricks. The church windows were given their current shape during renovations in 1680. The flat wooden ceiling, the west gallery, altar, pulpit, baptism and the stalls also date from this time. Both the gallery and the pulpit are decorated with paintings.

traffic

Klepps is on Landesstrasse 56 between Loburg and Hobeck.

From April 20, 1903 to May 2, 1960 the place had a connection to the Burger Kleinbahnnetz (KJI) of the district Jerichow I with the station Klepps-Ziegelei . From the former train station, not far from Landstrasse, all that remains today is a cobblestone loading street. Coming from the southern outskirts of Loburg, the route of the Loburg-Gommern line ran on the west side of the L 56 to the brickyard station at km 2.7. North of the factory, the route turned west to Kalitz . The so-called narrow - gauge railway ran on the 20.5 km long route with a gauge of 750 mm.
