Langenbogen is a part of the municipality Teutschenthal in the Saalekreis in Saxony-Anhalt (Germany).

Until it was incorporated into Teutschenthal on January 1, 2010, Langenbogen was an independent municipality in the Würde / Salza administrative community . Klaus Benne was local mayor until his death on July 29, 2015.

history

Langenbogen was first mentioned in 1155 in the Schöppenchronik. At that time there was Langenbogen Castle not far from the locality, on which the Lords of Langenbogen sat, members of a lower nobility family, which can be traced back to 1155 with this name affix. Castle and village came to the ore monastery of Magdeburg around 1194 , where they remained for centuries. Lying on the border with the county of Mansfeld , they belonged as an exclave to the Brachwitz office in the Saalkreis . In 1433 the castle was destroyed. From 1450 Archbishop Friedrich III. von Beichlingen create a domain with a village settlement. In 1691 the Langenbogen lignite works, which Johann Wolfgang von Goethe visited in 1802, was first mentioned. In 1680 Langenbogen and the Archbishopric of Magdeburg came to the Duchy of Magdeburg under Brandenburg-Prussian rule.

With the Peace of Tilsit in 1807, Langenbogen was incorporated into the Kingdom of Westphalia and assigned to the Halle district in the Saale department. The place belonged to the canton of Fienstedt . After Napoleon's defeat and the end of the Kingdom of Westphalia, Napoleon's allied opponents liberated the Saalkreis in early October 1813. During the political reorganization after the Congress of Vienna in 1815, Langenbogen was attached to the Merseburg administrative district of the Prussian province of Saxony in 1816 and assigned to the Mansfeld Lake District . In 1848 the sugar factory was built by the large landowner Wentzel. On July 1, 1950, Langenbogen was reclassified from the Mansfelder Seekreis to the Saalkreis. At the same time, the incorporation of Köchstedt took place , which, however, was reclassified to Bennstedt on January 1, 1957 .

The last major construction projects were the construction of the residential area "Eisleber Breite" with the laying of the foundation stone in 1992 (for several hundred residents) and (from 1997) the development of a small industrial area (today three department stores, a bank branch, a gas station, a snack bar, a printing shop, a caravan dealer, a pool builder, a fitness studio and about five other providers, including newspapers, drinks, flowers) on the Dachsberg directly on the B80 , using existing structures.

Location and development

In the north of the municipality, the Salza turns towards Saale , coming from the Süßen See and previously crossing the Bindersee and Kerner See lakes . Mills were once located on this river, which is also known as the Salzke, and later the sugar factory. Since the village was on the spur at the bend to the north until the 15th century, the derivation of the place name from this location makes sense. The town center stretches up the old Chaussee-Straße to Eisleben and was later expanded to include other parts of the settlement such as the workers 'settlement along the Salza (for the sugar factory) or the farmers' settlement southwest of the town. The northern part of the neighboring Teutschenthal Bahnhof settlement also belongs to the place. There you will find the woods of Hell and the former plague cemetery. The establishment of Langenbogen as a street village favored the opening of restaurants.

In the center there are two schools (closed; one of the two today pharmacy Dorfschule Langenbogen ), a bakery, the municipal office, a restaurant, the volunteer fire brigade and the church (first mentioned in 1481, today's shape 19th century). Since 1990 the water tower, the sugar factory and the restaurant Deutsches Haus have been demolished. The once famous fruit wine tavern Weinbergterrassen is no longer in operation, but new inns have been established. There is also a driving school, car dealer or distillery as well as various trades (window construction, horticulture, hairdressers) in town. There are also numerous clubs such. B. the handball club, the dance club, the baroque organ development association and the sports club in Langenbogen.

The place is surrounded in its current extent by hills such as the Flegelsberg (west) or the Pfingstberg (northeast of the location). Other hills in the municipality are the Karnickelberg and the Schachtberg (both near the railway settlement), the Lausehügel with the Kessel (south of the Flegelsberg in the west of the municipality) and the Dachsberg (on the B 80 east of the village).

The site is bounded by the Augenwassergraben to the east and south-east and by the Weißer Graben to the west. East of the village, one of the four former ponds was also created again when the pumps were turned off there. This measure fell victim to an allotment garden whose houses / bungalows (including a bus) still protrude from the water. Due to its shallow depth, it freezes completely almost every winter. The ponds were once created for the supply of the castle, in which the archbishops of Magdeburg spent part of their summers, and were called Küchenteich, Schäferteich, Kleiner Burgteich and Großer Burgteich (this is also called Mühlenteich because there was a mill at the north end). They existed until the end of the 18th century. The large castle pond, a kind of ring moat of the castle, was created again around the former castle site in its distinctive horseshoe shape, which is also interpreted as the Salzameaander. Since the area had been paved over after the decay, there are hardly any remains of the castle.

badges and flags

Blazon : “In the silver shield covered with a downwardly curved blue bar above a five-part, tinned red castle with an open arched gate in the middle part and a black window opening in each of the outer towers; below two crossed red keys with beards turned downwards and oval lock leaves. “The castle is symbolic of Langensalza Castle, the blue ribbon is the Salza and the crossed keys are the coat of arms of the von Langenbogen family.

The coat of arms was designed by the local heraldist Frank Jung and approved on July 10, 1997 by the Halle regional council.

The colors of the flag are silver (white) - red - silver (white) striped with a coat of arms on the wider central stripe.

Culture and sights

The hammer holes

The municipality is attractive from a tourist point of view through the vineyards along the Salzatal and various nature trails to the neighboring municipality of Salzatal (nature reserve Salzatal between Langenbogen and Köllme ). The place is on the "Weinstrasse Mansfeld Lakes" and the "Saale-Harz long-distance cycle path".

The "hammer holes" are naturally formed canyons that make the development of the soil layers in the region clearly visible. Another special feature is the “Rohrwiese”, a salt meadow northwest of the “Eisleber Breite” settlement. On the mountain spur on which the place used to be, the elephant stone can be found today and the plum tang can still be guessed. On the valley path to Zappendorf is the Schäferstein, the former boundary stone of the ore monastery .

At the Vorwerk (later a domain farmstead) there is a building inscription from 1606 with a sundial and figure relief ( Langenbogen coat of arms ). The bakery is adorned with a coat of arms that refers to its foundation in 1750. The oldest bridge in the village was on the road to Höhnstedt until 2017.

There is also a milestone from the 1820s at the western end of the town and a signpost in the Salzatal northeast of the town . South of the village, near the station settlement , is the so-called plague cemetery , the former cemetery of the "Schachtberg" mining settlement.
