Mieste is a village and a district of the Hanseatic town of Gardelegen in the Altmarkkreis Salzwedel in the north-west of Saxony-Anhalt .
geography
The Altmark church village Mieste is located between the Drömling and the Colbitz-Letzlinger Heide on the federal highway 188 , which connects the place with the towns of Gardelegen (14 km east) and Oebisfelde (17 km west). There is also a rail link to both cities. The agricultural areas surrounding Mieste are only moderately productive with an average of 37 soil points . The Mittelland Canal runs around 6 km south of the village, and the next transshipment point for ship freight is in Calvörde . In the east of the village, the Sichauer Bäke flows south.
Local division
In addition to Mieste, the Wernitz district belongs to the village . Mieste includes the colonies of Breiteiche , Himmelreich, Hopfenhorst, Krügerhorst, Lenz and Werder. The Lenz colony is located to the east on Bundesstraße 188 between the Mieste and Miesterhorst . The colonies of Breiteiche and Hopfenhorst are in the south of the village, Krügerhorst and Werder in the southwest, while the colonies of Himmelreich are in the north.
history
Mieste was first mentioned in a document as Mösde in 959 , when King Otto I made the place the object of a donation. In 1420 Mieste was led under the Wendish name Myest (Damm, Dammstrasse), which indicates its location on the lowland area of the Drömling . Until it was drained in the 18th and 19th centuries, the Drömling was an inaccessible swamp lowland. Presumably in the 18th century Miesterhorst emerged as a colony of Mieste on one of the eyrie in Drömling.
The village of Mieste changed its appearance in the course of history. It was round at the beginning, but after a major fire in 1808 it was built in a straight line and expanded.
In 1871 it was connected to the railway network. The infrastructure, which was once agriculturally oriented, changed in the course of the 20th century into a place with many craft and commercial firms.
Incorporations
When Prussia reformed its district administration after the Congress of Vienna , Mieste came to the Gardelegen district in 1818 . The municipality was reclassified on July 25, 1952 from the district of Gardelegen to the new, smaller district of Gardelegen . On March 15, 1974, the municipality of Wernitz was incorporated into the municipality of Lindstedt from the Gardelegen district. After the Gardelegen district was dissolved, the Mieste community became part of the Altmarkkreis Salzwedel on July 1, 1994.
For a few years Mieste was the seat of the Mieste administrative association with 10 municipalities before it merged into the newly formed Southern Altmark administrative association in 2005 . On January 1, 2011, the municipality of Mieste and the 17 other VWG Südliche Altmark were dissolved and incorporated by law into Gardelegen.
