Krienke

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Krienke is a district of the Rankwitz community at the southern end of the Lieper Winkel on the island of Usedom .

history

Krienke was first mentioned in a document in 1270 under the Slavic name "Crinisitz". The name is interpreted as "bowl". In a document dated March 15 of this year, the Bishop of Cammin , who owned the village, exchanged it at the request of Duke Barnim I of Pomerania-Stettin with five other communities on Usedom ( Suckow , Mellenthin , Balm am Balmer See , Ückeritz and Loddin ) against Damerow in West Pomerania (near Naugard ), which had belonged to the Premonstratensian monastery Grobe near Usedom (city) ; In 1309 this moved to Pudagla .

Most of the Lieper Winkel had come to the Grobe monastery two generations earlier under Barnim's grandfather Bogislaw I's widow .

Two noble families are documented in the Middle Ages. The von Lepel family is recorded in Krienke around 1430. In 1527 Jürgen von Borcke became the first tenant of his family on Krienke. In a Swedish inventory from 1693 (45 years after the Thirty Years' War , in which the whole of Usedom became Swedish), a Herr von Borke is listed as a castle captain alongside five köttern ; the spellings von Borcken and von Borck can be found in other references for this family . The von Borcke owned the 760 hectare estate until 1945. The villages Suckow and Morgenitz also belonged to the property of this manor house .

Between 1896 and 1898 the only road was built through the Lieper Winkel, which is still there today as an avenue and connects Krienke. Previously, the entire peninsula was only accessible by boat from the backwaters . This is a misconception, because in the PUM (Preussisches Urmestischblatt) of 1835 the peninsula has a dense network of land routes, especially since Krienke is not directly on the peninsula.

The manor house, which has existed since 1835, was expanded to two storeys in 1920. This simple historic manor house and the farm yard are still well preserved. The manor park was laid out as a baroque park before 1835, but was later converted into a landscape park. This park is no longer preserved, only a few trees.

On July 1, 1950, the previously independent community Suckow was incorporated.

There is a tourist infrastructure with a restaurant and several holiday accommodations.

Attractions

  • Krienker See is the name of the most south-westerly, deeply incised bay of the Achterwasser , which closes the Lieper Winkel in the east. With a circular route for cyclists and hikers, the west bank and the small villages can also be reached by water sports enthusiasts who are specifically looking for wilderness on Usedom. The shallow water is surrounded by an almost closed belt of reeds; some parts of the bank are barely accessible through bog and ditches. Behind it stretches a forest area, within which the Black Mountain is the only elevation with a height of 12 m. The small island “Werder” in the lake is also densely forested. The east bank, which does not belong to the Lieper Winkel, is easier to reach thanks to a small holiday colony on the former Dewichow manor . 1 km further north, the open Krienker See flows into the Achterwasser and borders the nature reserve of the Cosim peninsula (transition to Lake Balmer ).
  • Bronze Age Tumulus - Approx. 1 km south of Krienke halfway on the main road to Suckow (described there).
