Klues

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Klues ( Danish : Klus ) is a district of the independent city of Flensburg . It is located in the extreme north of the western half of the city, so it belongs to the Nordstadt district and borders the Harrisleer settlement of Wassersleben , from which it is separated by a forest.

history

Besides Duburg , Klues is the only part of the city in the western half of the city of Flensburg that did not belong to the old Stadtfeld and was therefore only incorporated later, with parts of today's Klues district formerly representing parts of the Ramsharder Feld, which had long been part of the Stadtfeld. The name Klues has its origins in a hermitage with a chapel, which was built in 1399 by Pope Boniface IX. was approved. The popular name “de Klus” (Klause) for a hermitage prevailed over the “Krogries” derived from the surrounding wood (same name stem as the neighboring Krusau to the north ); the wood in turn was given the name Kluesries ( Klues forest ). The hermitage developed into a place of pilgrimage that came into contact with the Rüdekloster in the 15th century . In the absence of reliable sources, however, the importance of Klues can no longer be determined at this time.

In the 16th century, during the Reformation , the chapel was given up. The stones from the demolition of the chapel were used to repair the Handewitter church .

A legend apparently recorded in the middle of the 19th century, which was published by Karl Müllenhoff at the time , reports about the pilgrimage site:

“The monks at Ruekloster had a hermitage or chapel built on Heerwege and named it at St. Annen . There was a great pilgrimage, that whoever was lame, sick or otherwise in need and made their sacrifices, got well at the request of Mother Mary and St. Anne. If his cattle got sick and he only brought the claws to which it was tied, or the halters from the horses, it was immediately well. [...] When the chapel at Klus Anno 15 .. broke down, several hundred klawen and other things, including crutches, were found, so those who came there sick, left there and left safely. "

Over time, Klues developed into a small Katensiedlung. From 1784 one of the cottages was expanded into a new farm, to which the other cottages were soon bought. It remained in the possession of the founding family Rönnenkamp until 1984.

The Klues settlement initially belonged to the Flensburg and Wiesharde authorities, and at the municipal level to the parish of Bau . The transition of the Duchy of Schleswig to Prussia in 1864 also brought radical changes for Klues. From then on, the village belonged to the municipality of Niehuus . In 1873 the Baltic Sea resort was built on the outskirts of Klues .

From 1900 onwards, a new settlement was built on the land of the Klueshof immediately north of the Flensburg city limits, known as the Klues colony . In 1904 it got its own school. In 1909 this district was incorporated into Flensburg, while the old Klues remained with Niehuus and with this in 1938 fell to the community of Harrislee . There in Harrislee, on the newly laid out market square, stands the Roman Catholic Church of St. Anna , whose name apparently refers to the previous chapel at Klues.

From the 1950s onwards, Klues also grew together with Flensburg's northern part of town in terms of urban development. The construction of the Flensburg west bypass led to the complete separation of old Klues in the 1960s. At the same time, to the north of the settlement in front of the forest, one of the largest and most important production facilities in Flensburg was established with the German headquarters of Danfoss .

Street sign Am Klueshof in Harrislee

Klueshof, which basically also belongs to Klues, is now located near the Slukefter district , which belongs to the Harrislee suburb , and is closely connected to Flensburg via this Harrislees district.

The Ramsharde street is also located in the Klues district today . The road used to be a dirt road in the Ramsharder Feld. Probably because of the name of the street in question, the Ramsharde area is located there today. The TTC Ramsharde from 1955 is located there in the area.
