Niederlehme ( Nižše Łomy in Lower Sorbian ) is a district of Königs Wusterhausen in the Dahme-Spreewald district in the state of Brandenburg in the Federal Republic of Germany.

geography

The Dahme in Niederlehme

Niederlehme is located southeast of Berlin , on the east bank of the Dahme .

Local division

The district of Ziegenhals belongs to Niederlehme . Ziegenhals is located north of Niederlehme and belongs to Niederlehme with its southern part and Wernsdorf with its northern part . In the course of the regional reform , Niederlehme became one of seven new districts of the city of Königs Wusterhausen on October 26, 2003. In order to be able to individually address the often identical street names in the districts, but nevertheless under the city name "Königs Wusterhausen", new postcodes were assigned to some districts of Königs Wusterhausen from January 1, 2009. Streets were renamed beforehand.

history

The small settlement Niederlehme was first mentioned in 1315 as Lomen inferior , before Königs Wusterhausen (1320). The designation inferior distinguished the place from Alta Lomen = Hoherlehme, a place where Wildau lives today . In 1503 there is an entry as Nyderlomen . Lomen goes back to the idiom of the West Slavic tribes originally resident here and means settlement in the event of a windbreak (in the forest) Later, Niederlehme, together with Czernestorf ( Zernsdorf ) and Neue Mühle, belonged to the Wusterhausen Castle, and around 1500 the Landsberg taverns owned the Wusterhausen Castle and acquired the associated lands, Niederlehme was part of the Teupitz rule ( Schenkenländchen ) for a long time , later to the districts of Beeskow / Storkow (until 1952) and Königs Wusterhausen. In 2003 Niederlehme was incorporated into Königs Wusterhausen.

Opposite the former Ziegenhals sports store , a memorial stone commemorates Ernst Thälmann's last appearance on February 7, 1933, before his arrest by the National Socialists , when he spoke to KPD officials at an illegal gathering in the sports store .

politics

The head of the village is Katharina Ennullat (as of March 9, 2020).

church

Evangelical Church Niederlehme in 1916

The evangelical church Niederlehme was built in 1913/1914 in Niederlehme. It is a creation of the royal building councilor Otto Hetzel (Berlin-Charlottenburg) and was under the supervision of the royal building council and head of the church building authority for the province of Brandenburg Georg Büttner . The church consists of a building complex connected to the parish hall and the rectory, which is an architectural unit. The sacred building shows features of Neo-Baroque (Wilhelminian style) and Art Nouveau within the framework of the reform architecture of the time . On February 13, 2007, the building was included in the list of architectural monuments of the state of Brandenburg.

Industry

Niederlehme sand-lime brick plant

Niederlehme is a historically grown commercial and industrial site and is one of the oldest sand-lime brick production sites in Germany. Production was promoted by the proximity to Rüdersdorf with the historic Rüdersdorf limestone quarry , which dates back to the 13th century and the work of the Cistercians and whose history is documented by the Rüdersdorf Museum Park . In the construction boom of 1924/1925 and 1930 in particular, the lime and cement factories in Rüdersdorf and the limestone factories in Niederlehme had a boom. "Half of Berlin" is said to have been built with the Niederlehmer sand-lime brick.

Robert Guthmann , the owner of the Niederlehem sand-lime brick factory at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, had today's landmark of the place built, the water tower . In the village, Robert-Guthmann-Strasse is a reminder of the industrialist.

traffic

The town is traversed from west to east by the A 10 , which has an exit named after Niederlehme on the Segelfliegerdamm, and from north to south by the state road 30. The Niederlehme stop is on the Königs Wusterhausen – Grunow railway line , on which the regional train line RB 36 of the Niederbarnimer Railway runs from Königs Wusterhausen to Frankfurt (Oder) . Bus route 733 runs on the L30 as a feeder to Königs Wusterhausen train station and Berlin-Schmöckwitz.

Water tower

Landmark water tower

In order to "show the whole world that the sand-lime bricks formed in Niederlehme (...) can withstand certain loads," Robert Guthmann had a water tower built from sand-lime bricks. The tower was completed in 1902 based on the model of the Istanbul Galata Tower, a Christ tower from the years 1348/1349. The tower is 27 meters high and 8.5 meters thick. A multi-level conical roof forms the upper end. Although it has a narrow viewing gallery, it was never open to the public. The building has only been open to visitors once a year since the water tower festival was set up in 2007.

Until the 1960s, the tower fed water into the Niederlehm pipes. In 1990 he went with the sand-lime brick plant to the Haniel Group . In 1999 a brokerage office acquired the historic building in order to set up a shipping museum. In 2013 the new owner's plans to use it as a residential tower failed because the authorities saw the danger that motorists on the A10 could be distracted by light in the tower. The water tower is not only regarded as a landmark in Niederlehme, but also as a prominent point of the south-eastern Berlin ring due to its location directly on the motorway .
