history

First mentions, origin and origin of the name

Written record is Koitenhagen first time in 1543 as Kotkenhagenn in a lease extract of eight years earlier by secularization of the monastery Eldena incurred ducal Office Eldena, then in 1577 as Kotkenhagen , 1627 as Koitkenhagen , 1634 as Kötkenhagen and finally in 1761 as Koitenhagen .

Theodor Pyl suspects that Koitenhagen is identical to Abbeteswald , which was first mentioned in a document dated July 29, 1280 as the newly created grangiarum [...] Abbatisuualde , 1281 variously as Abbatiswolt , Abbeteswolt and Abbeteswolde and - as the last recorded mention - 1298 as Abbeteswald mentioned. Abbeteswald or Abtswalde (abbot's forest) could, in Witkowski's opinion, initially have been the name of a forest subordinate to the monastery Eldena or its abbot, which was then transferred to the grangie built in it , the courtyard that emerged from this and the settlement around it .

The name Koitenhagen goes back to Pyl on a family name; Hess agrees to a register entry from 1570, in which the Kötzke family is noted. The ending "-hagen" is a common name for settlements that were created in a Hag .

The origin of the Koitenhagen estate

The Koitenhagens area belonged to the Amt Eldena (see above), which had passed into the ownership of the University of Greifswald in 1634 through the donation of the last Pomeranian Duke Bogislaw XIV .

At the beginning of the 19th century there were several farms in the Koitenhäger area. The farm south of the road to Anklam came to Groß Schönwalde in 1844; another homestead was closed. There remained courtyard 1 in the west, courtyard 2 in the middle as well as the forester's farm and the grounds of the jug in the east of the Koitenhäger area. The two remaining farms were then merged into one property with a total area of ​​177.5 hectares in 1864. In 1868 Feodor Heinsius took over the Koitenhagen estate; At the beginning of the 20th century it was then in the hands of the Becker family, who, in addition to the Koitenhagen estate, also leased the Eldena and Ladebow estates from the university.

Koitenhagen after the war, in the GDR and today

After the end of the Second World War, the goods Koitenhagen, Groß Schönwalde 1 and Groß Schönwalde 2 were declared to be teaching and experimental goods of the University of Greifswald in October 1945; In 1956 the goods Koitenhagen and Groß Schönwalde were taken over by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry of the GDR as nationally owned goods (VEG).

Koitenhagen initially belonged to the community of Groß Schönwalde, which was then incorporated into Greifswald in 1974 . The entire incorporated area formed the district of Groß Schönwalde; For a long time Koitenhagen was only reminiscent of the name of Koitenhäger Landstrasse , the southern half of which roughly coincides with the western border that was consolidated for the Koitenhäger area in the 19th century.

After reunification, people returned to their historical roots. The city of Greifswald prepared the development plan No. 58 “Gut Koitenhagen” for the area southeast of the intersection of Anklamer Strasse and Koitenhäger Landstrasse. The planned new building area was developed from 1997 to 2002 and today as the residential area "Gut Koitenhagen" offers over 600 residents living space in single, double and terraced houses. It also includes streets whose names are also reminiscent of the historic Koitenhagen.
