history

Kogel was first mentioned in a document in the Ratzeburg tithe register in 1230 under his then name Cowale . The place belonged to the parish Camin in the country Wittenburg. The Schaale river , which was made navigable in the 16th century, was one of the livelihoods of the residents . The place is still dominated by agriculture and forestry today.

The first documentary mention of the district of Kölzin can be found in Isfried's partition contract from 1194. Under the name Culsin at the time , it was a donation of the Ratzeburg cathedral chapter and belonged to the parish of Zarrentin since 1230. In the 15th century there was a fulling mill in the place , which was used to process cloth. However, when the shell was made navigable, it was converted into a customs house.

The Pamprin district appears under the name Pampurine for the first time in 1230 in the Ratzeburg tithe register .
