Coming Gorgast

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Manor house in Gorgast. Erected around 1840 by Gustav Wahnschaffe

The Kommende Gorgast was a branch of the Order of St. John in Gorgast in what was then the Lebusian district of the Mark Brandenburg (today part of the municipality of Küstriner Vorland in the district of Märkisch-Oderland , Brandenburg). The Kommende Gorgast belonged to the Brandenburg Ballei of the Order of St. John and was only formed in 1768 by splitting off from the Kommende Lietzen . After the abolition of the order in 1811, the coming was converted into a royal Prussian domain office , the office of Gorgast . In 1872/4 the Gorgast office was dissolved.

(Prehistory

The village of Gorgast was first mentioned in a document in Charles IV's land register from 1375. At that time it was owned by the Order of St. John and belonged to the Kommende Lietzen . The place had an old- to Yev-Slavic predecessor settlement. In 1375 the Johanniter had a castrum or domus here . Gorgast is in the Landbuch next to Gartow , Werbyn , Tempelhofe and Lysen under the heading Castra et domus ordinis s. Johannis Jerosolimitani listed. They probably had a farm with four hooves here, because in 1460 there were 13 hooves here, nine of which paid interest. Later the property of the Johanniter in the place grew to nine Hufen. In 1764 this farm yard or Vorwerk had 1364 acres of 125 square rods of fields and 197 acres of 47 square rods of meadows.

The Coming Gorgast

From 1767 (until 1810 or 1811), Berthold Schulze and, following him, the historical local dictionary refer to Gorgast as an independent commander. Berthold Schulze lists Gorgast as Coming Gorgast among the offices of the Order of St. John . He refers to Adolf Wilhelm Ernst von Winterfeld and his work History of the Knightly Order of St. Johannis from the Hospital in Jerusalem ... According to this source, Gorgast was separated from the Kommende Lietzen around 1767 and formed a separate Kommende. A few pages later (on p. 783) he specifies the date to 1768, and Heinrich Karl Wilhelm Berghaus also specifies 1768 as the time when the Kommende Gorgast became independent. However, this regulation was only to come into force after the then commander of Lietzen Friedrich Heinrich von Schwedt had died. The first expectant should receive the bigger one, that is, the upcoming Lietzen, the second expectant the smaller one, the coming Gorgast. Friedrich Heinrich von Schwedt died in 1788, so that Gorgast did not become an independent commander until 1788. Wilhelm Adrian von Kleist became the first commander. The Coming Lietzen was leased, as was the Coming Gorgast. In 1768 the Kommende Lietzen brought in 7,000 thalers a year, the Kommende Gorgast 5,000 thalers. After Winterfeld, however, the yield was significantly lower. He puts the annual income (for the commander) at 1,137 thalers.

The office of Gorgast

In 1810/11 the Order of St. John in Brandenburg was dissolved and the goods nationalized. Gorgast now became a royal Prussian domain office, to which the Eichwalde Vorwerk also belonged in addition to the Gorgast estate and place. The last commander Friedrich Wilhelm Graf von Sparr was compensated with 4,200 thalers.

The Gorgast office from 1822

In 1822 the Bleyen office was dissolved. The office of Gorgast now also received two places from the office of Bleyen for administration. According to the topographical-statistical overview of the government district of Frankfurt ad O., the Vorwerk Alt Bleyen had its own police administration. Old and new Drewitz was transferred to the Quartschen domain office . The "long suburb of Küstrin" was incorporated into Küstrin . Associated places from 1822:

In 1854 the cash business of the Gorgast office was transferred to the Letschin sub-tax office. In 1872/4 the Gorgast office was dissolved. However, the estate was still managed as a state domain. In 1879 the estate had a size of 707.5 hectares. Gustav von Rosenstiel also ran a distillery on the estate at that time.

The farm yard of the Coming Lietzen or later the Coming Gorgast was verifiably leased since the middle of the 18th century and generated high lease income.
