history

The story of Kliestow begins with the settlement in the 8th / 9th centuries. Century up to the east colonization in the 12th century by Slavic-Wendish tribes. Field names such as Wendischer Hof , a former settlement, as well as Kleine Kliestow (Einödshof) on Triftweg are reminiscent of Slavic settlement.

The Slavs built in 9/10. Century three kilometers north of Kliestow a hill fort that fell victim to a fire in the 10th century by its own hand. Due to the clay pots found during excavations, the Liutizen or Wilzen are considered to be the builders of the castle.

To what extent the Slavic castle wall near Kliestow belonged to the place itself or was a part of the castle in Lebus has not been clarified beyond doubt. The ground plan of the castle differs significantly from the nearby people's castles Reitweiner Wallberge and Burgwall Lossow , where the entire interior was built on with houses.

The name of the place can perhaps be traced back to the formerly eastern Kliester lake (also called Kliestsee ). To distinguish it from the “Klein Kliestow” farm (later “Wendischer Hof”), it was also called Groß Kliestow . In 1926, the lake to the east of the old Wendischer Hof was only recognizable as a low-lying meadow area that was flooded when the water level in the Oder was high. Today there is a large reed area there.

The Wendische Hof or Klein Kliestow was merged into the Feldmark von Kliestow in 1510 after it was acquired by Kliestow and was never repopulated.

The first documented mention of the place as ville clistow comes from the year 1320. Duke Rudolf von Sachsen presented the city of Frankfurt with the village of Cliestow. Since the death of the Brandenburg Margrave Waldemar, he led the government first for the widow and later as the presumptuous heir. With his gift he wanted to secure the friendship and support of the Frankfurters. But as early as 1338, Bishop Stephan II of Lebus was the owner of the village.

Frankfurt had long been under the bishop's spell because of the destruction of the episcopal city of Göritz (today Górzyca ). When the city was reconciled with the bishop, it wanted to give him the church of St. Mary as an episcopal cathedral as atonement . This was prevented by the emperor, who wanted the patronage of this church to be reserved for the sovereign. Instead, the city ceded most of the village of Cliestow to the bishop.

In 1527, on the threshold of the new era ( Reformation ), when the power of the bishop was wavering, the council refused to swear the feudal oath both to the bishop and to subjects . The elector was therefore called. He decided to leave the entire fiefdom to the city for a payment of 300 guilders. The cathedral chapter did not give its approval. In 1528 it was decided that from now on two councilors would take over the fief. They had to take an oath on the sovereign and the city. The bishop refrained from addressing the Frankfurters as "dear faithful". From this time on, Cliestow changed hands very often (feudal lords).

In 1589 Cliestow was sold to Liborius von Schlieben for 4,380  thalers . The estate remained in this family until 1706. Then the city of Frankfurt bought it back for 24,000 thalers. Cliestow had suffered greatly during the Thirty Years' War . The village was totally destroyed. The granite church was the only building to survive this period. The robbery and looting campaigns led to the cremation of the village in 1633. Only in 1639 was part of the Kirchenacre tilled again, but the larger part only in 1651 after it was cleared in 1650.

From 1759 a certain Hückel was tenant. He finally took over the estate on a long lease . But the glories remained in the possession of the city, such as the jurisdiction and taxes . The estate remained in the Hückel family until 1854. In that year the property was taken over by the Scherz family , who then kept it until the land reform in 1945.

Shortly before the end of the Second World War, the place lay on the Oder front for weeks. On February 5, 1945 all Kliestower had to leave the place before the advancing front. In those days, Kliestow was almost empty and the refugees only returned reluctantly.

The first reform after the collapse of the Third Reich was land reform . In the course of this, the Scherz family , who owned almost 500 hectares of land , was also expropriated in 1945 .

In the second half of the 19th century began in Kliestow brown coal in surface mining to promote. Coal mining ended in 1925 with the closure of the "Vaterland" mine. Kliestow was given a connection to the Prussian Ostbahn with a station building on Berliner Chaussee, which is now used as a residential building, specifically for the transport of coal . The station “Grube Vaterland” was given the name “Kliestow (Lebus district)” on November 15, 1934. The embankment can still be seen to the north of the building. However, the rails were dismantled after 1945 and brought to the Soviet Union as reparations . The route enabled a direct connection from Frankfurt (Oder) to Küstrin (today Kostrzyn nad Odrą ) , especially during the Second World War . In the vicinity of Wilhelmshof and the Kunersdorf desert was the connection point to the railway tracks leading to Lebus via Boossen. An old brick bridge (near the manor park) and cobblestone sections of the railway embankment, which were level crossings, have been preserved to this day.

Settlements and housing complexes

The witch mountain

The origin of the name is not clear. The settlement was established in early 1950 for those who received land as part of the land reform. The original name of this area was "Am Weiler"; There was nothing there except for a large barn. The name “Am Weiler” derives from a small lake near the present-day settlement that temporarily carries water on the former embankment. After heavy rains, you can still find this place today.

Housing complex on Frankfurt Weg

In the early 1980s, the LPG and the GPG built a residential complex for their members between Berliner Chaussee and the Gutspark. The plots are all the same size and the single-storey houses with a basement and garage are all identical. The houses were built by prisoners.

Sonnenhang residential complex

The residential complex built by the Westphalbau company on the eastern edge of the town near the so-called coal mountain in the mid-1990s consists of row and single-family houses. Boxing star Axel Schulz also lives there . Once there was a furniture store and the associated fire water pond, which was filled in in the course of the later construction of a single-family house.

Historical structures and buildings

• church

Evangelical parish hall (former school) and gym

According to a design by Curt Steinberg, the two-wing, single-storey plastered building over a V-shaped floor plan with a high pitched roof was built in 1913. The inscriptions “Built for the good of the community” and “May the Lord bless your coming and going” can be found on the bar of the porch. Originally there were two large rooms inside to the right and left of a central corridor. Today there is a residence of the Wichernheim Frankfurt an der Oder eV for disabled people.

Manor house with park

Two-story plastered building with a gable roof built around 1850/1860 with a basement. After 1945 the lower floor of the building was used as a day nursery (left wing), kindergarten (right wing in the back) and after-school care (right wing in front). There were 3 rental apartments on the upper floor.

On the night of August 11th to 12th, 2005, the building was badly affected by a fire. The fire that raged in the attic could only be fought to a limited extent by the fire brigade , as the building could not be entered due to the dilapidation and the large sheet metal sheets themselves prevented the water from reaching the fire. It was only in the early hours of the morning that the Kliestow volunteer fire brigade, with the support of the professional fire brigade of the city of Frankfurt (Oder) and other local fire brigades , managed to bring the fire under control. To this day, neither the owner nor the city of Frankfurt (Oder) has been able to repair the roof of the listed building.

Residential stable house

This Märkische Mittelflurhaus, built in the first half of the 18th century, stands in Winkelweg across from the old school . It is an adobe half-timbered house with a gable roof and is one of the oldest residential stable houses in Brandenburg. Unfortunately, it cannot find a buyer, so it is becoming increasingly dilapidated.

Apartment building with outbuildings for miners

On the south-eastern edge of the village on the old embankment, the so-called pit house with toilet house and stable was built in 1898. Originally built for the miners of the "Vaterland" mine, it was later inhabited by families of railway workers.
