history
The municipality of Nordwestuckermark was formed on November 1, 2001 from the previously independent municipalities of Ferdinandshorst, Fürstenwerder, Gollmitz, Kraatz, Naugarten, Röpersdorf / Sternhagen, Schapow, Schönermark and Weggun ( Northwestuckermark Office ) and the Holzendorf municipality ( Prenzlau-Land Office ). At the same time, the office of Nordwestuckermark was dissolved and the municipality of Nordwestuckermark was made free.
The current districts of Nordwestuckermark (with the exception of Naugarten and Weggun) belonged to the Prenzlau district from 1817–1952 (until 1947 in the Prussian province of Brandenburg , 1947–1952 in the state of Brandenburg ). 1952–1993 they were part of the Prenzlau district (until 1990 in the GDR district of Neubrandenburg , 1990–1993 again in the state of Brandenburg). Weggun and Naugarten belonged to the Templin district from 1817 to 1952 and were also incorporated into the Prenzlau district in 1952.
Since the district reform in Brandenburg in 1993, the places have belonged to the Uckermark district .
