History and etymology

Kolzenburg was first mentioned in a document in 1285, when Luckenwalde and eleven other villages, including this village, were sold to the Zinna monastery by the Magdeburg ministers Oltzo and Wedego von Richow . Experts assume that there was previously a Slavic settlement around 900 meters north of the town center, which was still in existence in the 21st century. Around 550 meters south there is said to have been a castle that belonged to a knight Kolz . At the end of the 15th century, the Cistercians compiled a register from which it can be seen that the villagers had to provide the monastery with manual and tensioning services for two days .

Until 1781 the farmers from Kolzenburg and Luckenwalde managed a communal pasture area, which was called the mill enclosure. A separation that took place between 1781 and 1783 lifted this joint guardianship. As emerged from a decision by the Royal High Tribunal, the Lindenberger Mühle fell to Kolzenburg. During the wars of liberation , Kolzenburg was attacked and looted by French soldiers in 1806. However, the place recovered from the chaos of war. From the 1830s the existence of a mill, a cloth factory, a water mill, a fulling mill and a sawmill as well as a jug and seven residential houses have been handed down. In 1839 craftsmen paved the road between Luckenwalde and Jüterbog. Kolzenburg was thus connected to an important trade route. On the night of July 27, 1855, a fire broke out in the village and destroyed all buildings. In the period from 1855 to 1888 there was a wildlife park in the village. As of December 1, 1871, 53 families lived in 35 residential buildings, including 163 male and 152 female residents. After 1897 there was a modest economic boom after the place was connected to the Royal Prussian Military Railway . The small town appeared in the diaries of Harry Graf Kessler from 1880-1937. He described how he rode from Kolzenburg to Jänickendorf on September 16, 1896. On the way back he was accompanied by two other people with whom he went swimming in the Mühlbach. He wrote: "a strange picture, we three naked human children in the moonlight on the meadow."

In 1941 the Nuthe burst its banks; the flood caused severe damage to the place. After the end of the Second World War , numerous resettlers came to Kolzenburg. The population increased; New residential buildings were built in Neuhofer Weg between 1948 and 1949. In 1952 an LPG was founded . On 12 October 1953, the celebrated church , the consecration of a new chapel . The building was built together with an apartment, which form an ensemble. In 1988, workers found medieval coins during earthworks. Kolzenburg was incorporated into Luckenwalde on December 6, 1993 together with Frankenfelde . At the turn of the millennium, workers restored a historic village pond. In 2010 the place celebrated its 725th anniversary. Two years later, after a year of renovation work, a community center was opened to the public again. In 2016, work began on a new building for a fire-fighting equipment house, which was opened to the public on March 22, 2017.
