history

St. Andrew's Church in Nehringen

The place Nehringen was mentioned for the first time relatively late, in 1387. Oldest surviving structure is probably a boundary as an der Cernosin 1330 scale keep performed on a high field stone base in brick. The time of construction of the late Gothic St. Andrew's Church is given as around 1350, the current external appearance dates from around 1600, the furnishings come from the first half of the 18th century.

The noble Buggenhagen family owned Nehringen and numerous other places in the area . Since the late Middle Ages, you have held the hereditary office of land marshal in the Duchy of Pommern-Wolgast , as it had arisen since the partitions of 1368/72, i.e. Western Pomerania including Rügen and Usedom up to the Peene . Among other things, the Land Marshal Degener Buggenhagen became known , who in 1417 was the head of the Regency Council for the underage Prince Wartislaw IX. , Barnim VII. , Barnim VIII. And Swantibor II. Killed the favorite of the Duchess Dowager Agnes, Kurt Bonow , and later at the instigation of the Duchess Dowager von Henneke Behr before the eyes of Prince Wartislaw IX. was killed. In 1498, another Buggenhagen from Degen, who had accompanied Duke Bogislaw X on his trip to Jerusalem, raised the previous chapel in Nehringen to a parish church.

In the 16th century, Nehringen was owned by the von Maltzahn family for a long time , but then returned to the Buggenhagen. The last owner from this family was Land Marshal Andreas Buggenhagen, who died on May 4, 1652 . In the following decades the owners changed frequently. In addition, there was a division between the owners of the feudal rights and the actual possession of the goods and their use. Already on February 27, 1647, before the death of the last Buggenhagen, Caspar Otto Sperling , Swedish major general of the infantry and governor of Halland, received the entitlement to the Nehringer estates from Queen Christina .

The actual owner of the Nehring property since the 1660s was Baron Jacob von Pfuel from Brandenburg, who had bought it from General Sperling's sons as a pledge. He still owned it at the time of the Swedish land survey in 1697 and stated its size as follows: “The knight's seat in Nahringen , as well as the Ackerwerck (manor) Dorow , Veskow (Fäsekow), where Teuffelstorff has a few gardens, Wiecke [Übelwieck, now a desert at Camper], item the Baurdörffer Glevitz , Langenfeld and Camper belong to me. In Janickendorf I am supposed to have 10 construction hooves, in Borstdorff (Bauersdorf, today Keffenbrink) 8 construction workers and 3 Coßaten . In Baßendorff I am supposed to have 4 Coßatenhöffe. In Medrow I am supposed to have 4 hooves, 11 acres of knight hooves, 9 building hooves as well as 4 Coßatenstellen in their fields. "

The feudal rights remained with the Sperling family for a long time. Via baron Otto Wilhelm Löwen they came to baron Hans Isaac Ridderhielm, Swedish lieutenant general and governor of Wismar in 1708 . Although he was able to pay off the actual owner of the property and actually take over the property, he soon died and on August 23, 1711, Charles XII enfeoffed. from Sweden in his Turkish exile in Bender the baron Johan August Meyerfeld the elder with Nehringen. With the Meyerfelds, ownership of the goods came to a certain extent, because Meyerfeld's son of the same name also followed his father. He had been governor since 1711, governor-general of Swedish Pomerania since 1713, and in 1714 the hereditary count. After the Danish occupation of Western Pomerania during the Northern War , the goods were confiscated and handed over to the Danish Governor General Franz Joachim von Dewitz , but Meyerfeld got them back after the war.

After the death of Johann August Meyerfeld the Younger in 1800, the goods came to Baron Carl Dietrich Schoultz von Ascheraden and in 1857 to Keffenbrinck, who was related to the Schoultz von Ascheraden . Wilhelm Friedrich Ernst von Keffenbrink, who was raised to the baron status in 1860, took on the name Keffenbrinck-Ascheraden when he took over the property and built a new mansion in Bauersdorf. The place was then named Keffenbrink. After the childless death of Freiherr von Keffenrinck-Ascheraden, the goods , which had meanwhile been converted into a Fideikommiss , came to the von Pachelbel-Gehag family , who named themselves after their elevation to the baron of Pachelbel-Gehag-Ascheraden. They owned the goods until they were expropriated in the course of the land reform in autumn 1945. After the political change, a member of the family returned to the village and has been trying to maintain the estate ever since.

The Nehringen St. Andreas Church was structurally in a desolate state in the 1970s, so it was closed by the building authorities in 1978 and designated for demolition by the parish council in 1984. The salvation of the church is thanks to Nehringer Klaus-Jürgen Bergemann (born 1940), who comes from a long-established Nehringer sexton family. Bergemann began single-handedly restoring the church in 1985, with financial support from the parishes of Eckernförde - Borby and St. John's in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, USA. Later he also got help from the local LPG and the GDR Monument Preservation. The restored church was consecrated again on June 21, 1992. On this occasion, Bergemann received the Federal Cross of Merit as the first recipient in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania to recognize his work. Through Bergemann's initiative, a local history museum was also set up in the old school, sexton and pastor widow's house.

Estate

In the 16th century at the latest, the Buggenhagen left the castle tower on the Trebel and built an estate in the village. It should essentially correspond to that shown on the map of the Swedish land survey from 1697. The town center received its present form under the first Count Meyerfeld at the beginning of the 18th century. These are some of the very few baroque building ensembles still preserved in Western Pomerania. The church, which has now received its baroque exterior and interior design, was also included in the redesign. The manor house , which presumably stands on older foundation walls, was rebuilt again between 1780 and 1790 and was given its current shape. The estate also includes two cavalier houses , a farm house and a row of streets with residential houses for those who work on the estate.
