Nädlershorst was one of the Wakenitzhorste along the Wakenitz between the Ratzeburg lake and Lübeck .

location

Nädlershorst was on the western bank of the Wakenitz, about 2.1 kilometers north of Rothenhusen . Nädlershorst was accessible from land via a path from the southern border of Groß Grönau .

history

In contrast to most of the Wakenitzhorst, Nädlershorst was never a fisherman's nest, but arose from a ferry house . The ferry at this point, mentioned for the first time in 1669, primarily served to connect the villages of Utecht and Schattin to the right of the Wakenitz, which until 1937 belonged to Lübeck . It was, like the associated ferry house and the area within a radius of about 140 meters, as a bridgehead of the Lübeck territories east of the Wakenitz in the possession of the city of Lübeck, which leased the operation. With the lease, the ferrymen automatically received the right to jug and the permission to farm. The original name of the place was Die Große Horst , but from 1709 the name Nädlershorst was used because Matthias Schendlien, who had been a ferry leaseholder since 1702, was a needle maker by profession .

In both 1875 and 1916 the ferry house was destroyed by fire. On both occasions the city of Lübeck considered replacing the ferry with a bridge, but because of the expected costs, decided in each case to build the new building more cheaply; in the latter case, the ferry operator had to live in a shed for four years before the city had the new ferry house built in 1920. In 1926 the long-planned bridge was built and the ferry service stopped. From then on, Nädlershorst was operated purely as a restaurant.

Due to the Greater Hamburg Law of 1937, Lübeck lost the areas east of the Wakenitz to the State of Mecklenburg , while the bridgehead Nädlershorst fell to Prussia and the community of Groß Grönau was added.

As a result of the division of Germany , the bridge was no longer passable after 1945 due to the closure and later removal of the eastern bridge access; in 1975 it was demolished. Nädlershorst was demolished in March 2003, as the area was intended to be used as a compensation area for the Wakenitz crossing of federal motorway 20 for renaturation. A plaque on the western bridgehead of the Nädlershorst Bridge, which was restored in 2008, reminds of the completely demolished Wakenitzhorst; in the same place is the sculpture Overcoming Borders by the Schattin- based sculptor Claus Görtz , which he created in 2008 from the barriers on the old bridge ramps.
