Location of Neuferchau in Saxony-Anhalt

Neuferchau is a town and part of the town of Klötze in the Altmarkkreis Salzwedel in Saxony-Anhalt .

geography

The Altmark village of Neuferchau, originally a colonist village with a church, is nine kilometers southwest of Klötze on the northern edge of the Drömling Nature Park . The Kuseyer drainage ditch flows through the village.

history

Neuferchau is a Wendish foundation.

The village of Neuferchau is first mentioned in a document in 1472 as dat wüsten dorp nyen Ferchou , when Elector Albrecht Achilles enfeoffed Werner and Gebhard von Alvensleben with various possessions. It was desolate , so not populated. The village of Nigenferchou is mentioned in 1506 when Elector Joachim I and his brother, Margrave Albrecht, approve the pledge of half of the Gardelegen castle lake by Dietrich von Alvensleben to his cousins ​​Vieke, Albrecht and Gewert.

The village was still desolate in the 17th century. Wilhelm Zahn quotes from an old church book about the re-establishment of Neuferchau: Neu Ferchau was first added in 1697 by Kersten Hannover from Jahrstedt, who built a house, which others have successively followed in such a way that at the time of the consecration of the church in 1767 there were 27 landowners here . The received village of Neuferchau is said to have been one kilometer southwest of the current village on the so-called Hofwiesen.

Further mentions are 1745 Verchau new and on a map from 1780 Noberskrug or Neuen Ferchau and 1804 Neu = Ferchau . Neu Ferchau or Nobers Krug is written in the Röwitz Urmes table sheet from 1823 .

Agriculture

After 1697, 19 tenants built their farms on the lands that belonged to Gut Köbbelitz .

The purchase of the field mark for 8,000 thalers took place on November 11, 1812. According to Hermes and Weigelt, the Alvensleben estate in Neuferchau is said to have been sold to the landowners in 1825, who shared the field among themselves.

The first economic boom came with the cultivation of the Drömling by the manor owner Theodor Hermann Rimpau from Kunrau , who had been draining and reclaiming the wetland since 1850. The separation in 1850 also led to higher yields through the amalgamation of the small arable land and a reorganization. In 1883 Neuferchau was opened up by solid roads. In 1889, operations began on the Salzwedel – Oebisfelde railway line .

During the land reform in 1945, the following were determined: 92 properties under 100 hectares had a total of 1,122 hectares, the church had 3 hectares, the community 2 hectares. In 1948 it was reported that 6 buyers had received land from the land reform. In 1953 the first type III agricultural production cooperative, the LPG "Altmark", was established. In 1960 there was an agricultural area of ​​1134 hectares, of which the LPG Type III "Altmark" with 216 members had 1018 hectares, the LPG Type I "Ferchau" 118 hectares. After 1966 the LPG Type I was connected to the LPG Type III, which in 1979 went over to animal production as LPG "Altmark". From the animal production LPG "Altmark" Neuferchau the productive cooperative "Altmark" eG Neuferchau was created on August 30, 1990.

Nåberskrôch or Nobiskrug

The first grower from Neuferchau called Hannover was called Nower . He ran the inn, which is why his homestead was called Nowerskrog .

Adalbert Kuhn and Wilhelm Schwartz report about it from oral tradition in 1848: The Nåberskrôch, the village of Neu-Ferchau, is said to get its name from the fact that a Kruger was originally built here on the road to Magdeburg and first set up an earth hut, little by little afterwards, however, he is said to have become so rich through playing dice with the carters that he built himself a beautiful homestead, whereupon others also settled there and the village of Neu-Ferchau emerged. But when the wagoners from Lupitz came, they said: "nu sake wî nå'n Nåberskrôch".

Wilhelm Zahn is of the opinion that this jug has nothing to do with the Nobiskrug , which Kuhn and Schwarz also report on: In the Nobiskrug, which means in the Altmark, we all come together once after death, a card is played ...

Origin of the place name

The name comes from the Old Slavic vrŭhŭ and means something like "high place".

Incorporations

The community of Neuferchau was reclassified from the district of Salzwedel to the district of Gardelegen on July 1, 1950 . On July 25, 1952, she came to the Klötze district . After its dissolution on July 1, 1994, Neuferchau came to the Altmarkkreis Salzwedel.

On January 8th, 2009, the local council of Neuferchau decided that Neuferchau should be incorporated into the town of Klötze. This contract was approved by the county as the lower local supervisory authority and came into effect on January 1, 2010.

coat of arms

Blazon : “In silver, a green mulberry branch with two red fruits; a silver plow in the green shield base. "

The colors of the parish are green - silver (white).

The main character of the coat of arms - the mulberry branch with fruits - is community-specific. In the 18th century, more than 60 mulberry trees were planted in Neuferchau in order to create a livelihood by raising silkworms. Two of these striking trees have been preserved, they stand in front of the church and thus shape the image of the town center. The red fruits symbolize the fertility of the district, the unfolding leaf means growing and prospering Neuferchau. The silver plow in the green shield base indicates the agricultural character of the place.

The coat of arms was designed by the Magdeburg heraldist Erika Fiedler .

flag

The flag is green and white (1: 1) striped with the municipal coat of arms. The municipality flag can have the shape of the hoist flag, the cross flag, the hanging flag, the banner and the pennant.
