Meseberg is a village and part of the Hanseatic city of Osterburg (Altmark) in the Stendal district in Saxony-Anhalt .

geography

Meseberg, a clustered village with a church, is 4 kilometers northeast of Osterburg (Altmark) and 22 kilometers north of Stendal on the western edge of the Altmärkische Wische conservation area, a flat area between the Elbe and Biese rivers in the Altmark .

The Cositte , a small tributary of the Biese, flows through the Meseberg district .

Neighboring places are Kattwinkel in the northwest, Mühle, Lindenhof and Wenddorf in the north, Königsmark and Maierbusch in the southeast, Otto's yard 2 in the south and Otto's yard 2 in the southwest.

Local division

The Meseberg district includes the Meseberg district with the village of Meseberg and the residential areas (courtyards) Berken , Kattwinkel , Lindenhof, Maierbusch, Mühle, Otto's yard 1, Otto's yard 2 and Wenddorf.

geology

The former Meseberg sand pit near Wenddorf on the Mühlenberg, formerly called Meseberg, is a geotope. Since the Elbe was dyed 600 years ago, the surface of the terrain near Meseberg has risen by 13 meters. The cause is a growing salt dome from the Zechstein located below Meseberg and Wenddorf . It extends to the northwest until just before Kattwinkel. The Zechstein salt, which is usually a few hundred meters deep, rose like a plug here and formed a salt dome, thereby driving the Mühlenberg up from the underground. In its upper areas it is drained. The residue forms a plaster hat.

history

In 1334 a Henningo Mesebergh in Hindenburg is listed as a witness in a document. The village is mentioned in 1344 as ville meyseberghe when Margrave Ludwig gave those von Gartow money to raise money in the village as a fief. Other mentions are 1541 Meseberg , 1687 Meseberge and 1804 Dorf and Gut Meseberg with two jugs and a windmill.

The place was the ancestral seat of the von Meseberg family.

In 2019 the 675th anniversary of the village was celebrated at the mill.

Windmill

In 1586 a windmill was built on the Mühlenberg in Meseberg by Wolf Asche von Kloster, a post mill with six blades that was destroyed in a heavy storm in 1832. A mill in Calberwisch built in 1812 was moved to Meseberg in 1850 by Johann Christian Dassler and also operated. His son Carl Dassler emigrated to New Zealand with his wife and son in 1876. The last miller worked until the fifties of the 20th century. The Windmühlen- und Heimatverein Meseberg e. V. dismantled the mill in 2007 because it had become a danger to the residents. It was restored 150 meters northwest of its historical location on the Mühlenberg in the Mühle residential area by the Mühlenvervein with public and private funding and inaugurated in 2012. Among the sponsors were descendants of the Dasslers from New Zealand.

Incorporations

On 25 July 1952, the Municipality Meseberg was from the district Osterburg in the district Osterburg reclassified. In 1986 three districts belonged to the municipality of Meseberg: Lindenhof, Maierbusch and Otto's Hof 2. Later they are not listed again as districts.

The municipal councils of the municipalities Ballerstedt (on November 24, 2008), Düsedau (on November 12, 2008), Erxleben (on November 10, 2008), Flessau (on November 27, 2008), Gladigau (on November 26, 2008), Königsmark (on November 25, 2008), Krevese (on November 12, 2008), Meseberg (on November 19, 2008), Rossau (on November 10, 2008), Walsleben (on November 10, 2008) and the Hanseatic City Osterburg (Altmark) (on November 6, 2008) decided that their communities should be dissolved and united into a new unified community called the Hanseatic City of Osterburg (Altmark). This contract was approved by the county as the lower local supervisory authority and came into effect on July 1, 2009.

For the included municipality, the local constitution according to §§ 86 ff. Of the municipal code of Saxony-Anhalt was introduced and a local council with four members including the local mayor was formed.

The turnout was 60.2 percent.

coat of arms

The coat of arms was approved by the district on March 4, 2009.

Blazon : “Split by gold and blue; in front a blue willow branch, in the middle of the gap a four-lobed ladder, below accompanied by a ploughshare in mistaken tinctures, behind a golden ear with stalk leaves. "

For the 850th anniversary in 2002, the then municipality of Meseberg developed a coat of arms that ties in with that of those of Meseberg . This coat of arms, which remained unapproved, is now in a district of the same name in the unified community of Niedere Börde in the Börde district . It was therefore the decision of the municipal council to borrow the ladder from the coat of arms of the von Meseberg family for the coat of arms to be included in the approval process and to use it in a modified form in the municipal coat of arms. The municipal heraldist Jörg Mantzsch was commissioned with the design and documentation . He placed a ploughshare and an ear of wheat as symbols for agriculture and a willow branch, which refers to the many willows that are characteristic of the flora of the Meseberg area.

The colors of the former municipality are - derived from the colors of the division - in reverse order: blue - gold (yellow).

flag

The flag is blue-yellow (1: 1) striped (landscape format: stripes running horizontally, lengthwise format: stripes running vertically) and centered with the coat of arms.
