history
The castle stables of several former Slavic castle walls such as the Bamme castle wall or the Hohennauen-Witzke castle wall have been preserved from the time of the early medieval Slavic settlement . The historical Havelland landscape was the tribal area of the Slavic Hevellers . The central castle town was Brandenburg an der Havel . The tribal area of the Heveller came into their possession in 1150/1157 due to an inheritance contract between the Heveller prince Pribislaw-Heinrich and Albrecht the Bear and was the ancestral land of the Mark Brandenburg founded by Albrecht the Bear . Early German evidence in Havelland is the castle stables of Burg Landin on the Teufelsberg.
The Havelland district was established on December 6, 1993 as part of the Brandenburg district reform by amalgamating the former Nauen (NAU) and Rathenow (RN) districts. The district offices of the Westhavelland and Osthavelland districts formed in the Kingdom of Prussia and existed until 1952 were also located here . The demarcation was based on the principle of forming sectoral circles .
