history

Seal mark of the Royal Prussian Forest District Neuholland

In 1650, the marshland belonging to the Havel brooks west of Liebenwalde was bought by Elector Joachim Friedrich in exchange to Freiherr v. Assigned to Hertefeld. He let the marshland drained and brought Klevian-Dutch settlers into the country, who from 1659 laid out and built up the colony of New Holland. In 1708 the settlement was enlarged by the addition of nine reformed families in the Malzer Heide. In 1713 there was a brewery in Neuholland which the bailiff von Zehdenick had leased. In 1740 50 (free) farmers lived in Neuholland. In 1771 the preacher, 51 passed farmers and the blacksmith are mentioned. In 1801 the colony village had 54 campfire sites, 50 Dutch people , 14 residents, a jug and a royal forester. In 1840 the village had grown to 58 houses. In 1860 the colony village consisted of 54 individual farmsteads, three public buildings, 58 residential buildings and 299 farm buildings, including a Dutch flour mill . The village then stagnated, and in 1931 there were still 58 farmsteads. In the land reform of 1946, 283 hectares were expropriated and 228 hectares were distributed to 30 displaced persons (called “resettlers” in the official parlance at the time). In 1952 the first type I LPG was created in New Holland, which was converted into a type III LPG just two years later. In 1960 it already had 216 members and cultivated 2,254 hectares of usable area. In 1972 a KAP of the LPGs Freienhagen, Neuholland and Falkenthal was formed. In 1973 the LPGs Freienhagen and Neuholland merged.

Political history

At the time it was founded, New Holland belonged to the Barnim district, which at that time was still referred to as Beritt Barnim . When the old Barnim district was divided up in 1818, Neuholland became part of Niederbarnim district . During the district reform of 1952, Neuholland was assigned to the newly created Oranienburg district . In 1992 Neuholland merged with Liebenwalde, Hammer, Kreuzbruch and Liebenthal to form the Liebenwalde office . In 1993 the new district of Oberhavel was created from the previous districts of Oranienburg and Gransee . On October 26, 2003, the municipalities of Hammer, Liebenthal, Neuholland and the city of Liebenwalde (Liebenwalde office) and the Freienhagen municipality ( Oranienburg-Land office ) merged to form the new city of Liebenwalde. The Liebenwalde office was dissolved, and the city of Liebenwalde became vacant. Today Neuholland is part of the city of Liebenwalde.

Church conditions

A Reformed mother church was created in New Holland as early as 1663, and a united mother church in 1840. The Reformed Church was subordinate to the Neuruppin inspection, the United Church to the Superintendent Zehdenick. The mother church in Neuholland had a daughter church in Kreuzbruch until 1930. The patronage was royal or later fiscal.
