Location of the Goosefeld community in the Rendsburg-Eckernförde district

Goosefeld ( Low German : Gosefeld or Goosfeld = goose field, Danish Gosefeld , also Gosby ) is a municipality in the district of Rendsburg-Eckernförde in Schleswig-Holstein . Marienthal, Hoffnungstal, Profit, Ravenshorst, Pletterberg and Klein Heck are in the municipal area.

Geography and traffic

Goosefeld is located on the northwestern edge of the Danish Wohldes near Eckernförde. The federal highway 203 between Rendsburg and Eckernförde runs through the municipality.

Goosefeld lies in the middle of a clearly recognizable moraine landscape . Hills and valleys were formed during the third advance of the Ice Age glaciers . The Goossee is partly in the municipality.

history

First settlement in the Stone Age

Traces of early human settlement that can still be seen today come from the Neolithic , an era that began around 4,800 years ago.

At the beginning of this period, the people living here apparently changed their perception of death, and with it their attitude towards life itself. This assumption is now based on the structural design of their burials. While the dead were previously buried in shallow graves , the traces of which can hardly be made out today, from then on they were buried in megalithic structures ( barrows ). These can be found either in the form of compact round hills, stone chambers or long beds.

Especially in the last 20th century, which was and is therefore called the “Century of Progress”, many witnesses from the early period of settlement were lost to posterity in the course of expanding agricultural use. It is both astonishing and gratifying that, despite this development, surprisingly many of the prehistoric soil monuments described have been preserved in the Goosefeld area, although in more or less good condition. Seven graves have now been placed under landscape protection.

Megalithic tomb

A group of committed Goosefeld citizens restored two of these graves in cooperation with the State Office for Prehistory and Early History in Schleswig in the 1970s: since 1977 the stone chamber on today's B 203 (object 35), from 1978 to 1980 the long bed on Profiter Weg ( Object 12). In the following years, the State Office restored the stone chamber grave near Lehmsiek (object 1) independently. Today it is one of the most remarkable megalithic tombs in the southern district.

After the Great Migration

After the migration of the peoples , the Danish Wealth was resettled from the south from 1260 onwards by representatives of the Holstein noble families and - in their wake - by Holstein farmers. Everything indicates that the original place, later called Alt-Goosefeld, was located above the Goossees and extended to the area of ​​today's Marienthal estate. Remnants of old post holes were found on the courtyard area as well as uncovered remains of buildings on the so-called “Neukoppel” opposite the courtyard. The meadow, which rises slightly from Goossee to today's Gut Marienthal, is likely to have served as a resting or nesting place for the wild geese passing through, and was thus the inspiration for the name. Especially since the part of the name “Goos” indicates the Low German term for “goose”. Nothing is known about the time when the villages Alt- and Neu-Goosefeld (today's Goosefeld) were founded. However, it can be estimated based on the naming to the time around or after 1400, since the place names on -au, -bach, -berg, -born, -scheid, -statt, -dorf and Eben -feld refer to the origin in pre-Christian Saxon Indicate time. Since Alt-Goosefeld was dependent on the Windeby estate, which was first mentioned in 1450, and was perhaps founded in its wake, Alt-Goosefeld's founding period can be narrowed down to the range 1400 to 1450.

First mention of Neu-Goosefeld

Today's Goosefeld naturally emerged later as a subsidiary settlement. The village, known as "Neu-Goosefeld", was mentioned in a document for the first time in 1518 in the sales contract between Anne von der Wisch and Duke Friedrich I.

The document has the following content: “Anne von der Wisch, widow Otte von er Wisch and Heinrich, their son, sell their farm at Wittensee with the associated villages of mills and estates, Grote Wystensee, Damendorpe, to Duke Friedrich I (King) , Lutke Wytensee, Haby and Gosevelde. "

The above document suggests that today's place as Neu-Goosefeld was founded sometime at the end of the 15th century by the entourage of the von der Wisch family. Neu-Goosefeld belonged (in contrast to Alt-Goosefeld) to the Bergharde or Hüttener Harde, until 1632 by Duke Friedrich III. was sold to his follower Detlef von Brockdorf, owner of Gut Windeby. It was thus united with Alt-Goosefeld under a common owner. Gut Windeby belonged to the second Danish Wohlder estate district.

Time of serfdom

In the course of a development based on various causes, the local peasantry had lost its independence at the end of the 16th century and had fallen into the dependency that led to serfdom. This determined agriculture and the life of the population from around 1600 until its abolition on January 1, 1805. Three Goosefeld families had already received their freedom on May 2, 1795 together with the subjects of the Windeby estate. In the middle of this time, Alt-Goosefeld was laid down in 1719 and the Windebyer Meierhof "Marienthal" was built in 1720, mostly on the same site.

Time tenant village

After the abolition of serfdom, the farmers were given the opportunity to lease their farms and buy them later. Very few succeeded in gaining a foothold in this way (Laß and Peetz). This resulted in a fluctuation of the population, with long-established family associations such as Laß, Neve, Paasch and Peetz gradually disappearing from the village.

Village and parish from 1924

Fire station

In the years 1923/24 the place was settled. To this end, on September 15, 1924, 17 owners of newly created rural sites founded a village association under the direction of the Höfebank . The democratically elected board of directors was obliged to carry out laws, ordinances and orders issued by the authorities or the farm bank. The same applied to the resolutions of the general assembly passed by majority vote. The village association exercised the internal self-administration of the later community already in 1924, around four years before the general dissolution of the manor districts. With the abandonment of economic ties and loosening of the administrative ties to the estate, Goosefeld ceased to be an estate village. A free village was created.

In 1928 the official line was drawn under the separation from the estate, which in practice had already been completed in 1924. The manor districts were dissolved on the basis of the law of December 27, 1927 with effect from September 30, 1928. The landowners thus lost their previous administrative functions, which went far beyond those of the later mayors. The Marienthal manor district had been converted to the Marienthal rural community. With effect from January 1, 1973, the name of the municipality was changed from “Marienthal” to “Goosefeld” in order to take into account the focus of the municipality which had shifted over the years.

From around the mid-1950s, with increasing rural exodus, the village began to change from an agricultural village to a predominantly residential and sleeping area. This process was compounded by the death of most of the farms. Today, as active farms, there are only two estates, three farms and one market garden (from the previous thirty).

On January 1, 1973, the name of the municipality of Marienthal was officially changed to Goosefeld .

Parish parts

Old school

Island-like enclave in Windeby municipality near Friedensthal and Goosschmiede. The old school building, initially single-class and later two-class, was built here around 1800. The name is self-explanatory. The building was initially converted into a residential building and then into a restaurant in the 1980s. It burned down in 1988. In 1996 the ruin was auctioned and demolished. In 1997, a guesthouse was built in its place, just a few meters away from the main street, which took over the name of the previous building in memory of the previous building.

Goosefeld village

Today's core area of ​​the municipality, formerly called Neu-Goosefeld.

Goosefeld settlement

A little east of Goosefeld, a new housing estate with the streets Brahmberg and Hasselkamp was built in the 1950s.

Witches Mountains

This is not a field name, but the name of two moraine hills between Lehmsiek and Profiter Weg. The name was probably given by the haunted landscape, especially in darkness and fog, through which a ravine of the same name leads.

Hope valley, estate and courtyards

Good Hope Valley

A Meierhof sold by Gut Marienthal in 1801 and later an independent estate. This includes a small housing estate. The name should probably express the hope of good lease income. This also included the huts in Hope Thaler on the eastern edge of the Goosefeld settlement, only one of which has survived.

In 1946, in accordance with the contract, three farms had to be spun off from the estate. 1. Bock farm, 2. Bünning (Frohbös) farm, 3. Kühne / Frohbös farm.

Katzheide

Parcel with farm between Bundesstrasse 203 and Ravenshorst. It was named after a striking population of pussy willows.

Small tail

Located on the federal highway 203, located north of Goosefeld, Kate on the map from 1800 as "Lüttheck". Group of houses still consisting of three cottages in 1877. Origin of name: "heck" = enclosure. The Goosefeld Gate to Common Pasture used to be located here. The cottages served as the shepherds' abode.

Marienthal, estate and residential buildings

Marienthal (Low German: Mariendaal ) is located on the southern edge of Eckernförde. The estate was built in 1719/21 by Otto von Qualen on the site of the abandoned village of Alt-Goosefeld as the Meierhof of the Windeby estate. The name was given in honor and memory of the deceased mother of the builder: Maria von Qualen, geb. Wetzelin from Marsilien. In 1793 the Meierhof was sold and in 1806 included in the number of noble estates. Just a few years later, Marienthal abandoned the newly built Meierhof Hoffnungsthal in 1802 and the Meierhof Wilhelmsthal in 1835 . The village of Goosefeld was inextricably linked with Gut Marienthal until around 1924. Up until the abolition of serfdom in 1805, Goosefeld's citizens were literally chained to the estate as farm laborers. Only five citizens had already received their freedom from the Windeby landowner in 1795. The Marienthal estate formed the center of the estate district of the same name and thus the administration. At the beginning of the 20th century, it was the goal of the lord of the time, Goosefeld, to lay down the former Neu-Goosefeld. Instead, from 1923/24 there was a fundamental change with the settlement of the village of Goosefeld by the Schleswig-Holsteiner Höfebank. Already at this time the village population largely took over self-administration and initiated the process of resolution, which culminated in 1928 with the general dissolution of the manor districts and the formation of communities. The Marienthal community had grown out of the Marienthal manor district. In 1973 the name of the municipality was changed to Goosefeld municipality in order to do justice to the shifted focus. After several parts of Eckernförde were incorporated into the town of Eckernförde since the beginning of the 20th century (first Sandkrug , in the 1930s Wilhelmst (h) al ), today the district and district designation Marienthal within Eckernförde bear the last incorporated areas of Wilhelm-Lehmann-Straße (beginning 1970s) and the current Marienthal industrial park (late 1990s) as well as the areas in between.

Pletterberg

Also called pletterbarg. A group of houses on a former small piece of land of nine hectares. During the beginnings of the free village of Goosefeld (from 1923) a small dairy farm was operated here, which was later closed. The building of the former dairy served the Amte Windeby as a homeless shelter until 2004 and was then sold. Origin of name: From "Plader", "Flader", nnd. = Maple, thus a mountain that was previously covered with maple.

profit

Mentioned as "Profi" as early as 1775, south of Goosefeld, a double farm near Lehmsiek, earlier single full hooves of the Marienthal estate. Origin of name: Probably particularly profitable, profitable leasehold land.

Ravenshorst

Already in 1575 as a ducal Vorwerk or as a royal. Domain mentioned, today two courtyards and a house in the north / west part of today's Goosefeld community. Origin of the name: "hrof", Anglo-Saxon = roof, in the figurative sense: "covered hill", "Höst", "Hörst", "Horst", nnd. = Residual forest, former forest.

The original Ravenshorst stretched from Eckernförde to Langhorst and represented a barrier between the village of Goosefeld and the common pasture. The associated courtyard building was centrally located for the former site near today's Friedensthal court. The measuring table sheet No. 1524 from 2003 clearly shows two access routes from Rendsburger Landstrasse (B 203). Over time, the two ends of the elongated east-west facing area were lost. Thus in 1771 the farm was decentralized in the northeast of the property. In 1775 the area was divided and the old farm demolished. A new one was built near it for plot I. This has been named one after the other for the last 250 years:

• "Rotenhahn" because of the farm that burned down in 1747,
• "Abrahamshof" after its temporary owner Abraham,
• "Friedenshorst" since 1815

Goosefelder School

Old school

Around 1806, an initially single-class school was built on the Friedensthal site, which over time was expanded to become a two-class school. It was replaced in 1965 by a new, also two-class school building. The old school was first converted into a residential building and later into an inn and burned down after renovation work in the late 1980s.

Former school, now a community leisure center

Goosefeld, former school, now a leisure home

In 1965 a new two-class school building was put into operation within the village of Goosefeld, which had to be decommissioned in 1975 as part of a school reform. Goosefeld's students were retrained to Eckernförde in several stages from 1967 to 1975. Since then, the building has been used as a community leisure center. Nurseries, clubs and associations have been using the location since then.

politics

Community representation

Since the local elections in 2008, the Goosefeld voter community (WGG) had nine and the Goosefeld alternative voter community (AWG) two seats in the community council. After the local elections in 2013, the distribution of seats is: eight WGG seats and three AWG seats. In the 2018 local elections, the WWG won six seats and the AWG three seats.
