history
Oebisfelde was first mentioned in a document between 1014 and 1073 as Ysfelde . At that time it was still a village. In 1226 there is a report of a Wolbertus de Ousfelde , in 1263 there is talk of a castrum (castle). It is assumed that the city was planned to be built around this time. The Church of St. Catherine was also built at that time .
Later the city suffered from warlike events, in 1547 it was devastated several times in the Schmalkaldic War , during the Thirty Years War the residents often withdrew to hidden clumps in the Drömlings thicket. As a so-called Immediatstadt , Oebisfelde was directly subordinate to the Brandenburg-Prussian Duchy of Magdeburg from 1680 and was in the Holzkreis until 1807 .
In 1910 Oebisfelde had 2223 inhabitants and Kaltendorf to the north had 1641 inhabitants.
With effect from April 1, 1918, the city of Oebisfelde and the rural community of Kaltendorf were merged into a new city community "Oebisfelde-Kaltendorf". On June 5, 1923, the manor district of Oebisfelde was "incorporated" into the municipality of Oebisfelde-Kaltendorf. On May 7, 1938, the renaming of the city of Oebisfelde-Kaltendorf to "Oebisfelde" was announced in the official gazette.
Buchhorst in Drömling
Oebisfelde was located directly on the inner German border in the restricted area of the GDR, which was associated with extensive border security systems and restrictions for residents and visitors. In May 1952, the GDR closed the Büstedt –Oebisfelde border crossing to road traffic. On November 26, 1989, the border between Büstedt and Oebisfelde was reopened. With the abolition of the border in 1990, the residents were able to orient themselves towards the west, for example as workers in nearby Wolfsburg .
From 1994 to January 1, 2005, Oebisfelde was the seat of the Oebisfelde administrative community , then from 2005 to December 31, 2009 the seat of the Oebisfelde-Calvörde administrative community .
Oebisfelde has been part of the Börde district since July 1, 2007 . From 1994 to June 30, 2007 it belonged to the Ohrekreis , while for centuries it was part of the Altmark. With the dissolution of the Klötze district in the mid-1990s, Oebisfelde would have become part of the Altmark district of Salzwedel . The city council decided, however, that Oebisfelde should be incorporated into the former Ohrekreis, whose district town Haldensleben is closer to Oebisfelde.
By means of a territorial change agreement, the municipal councils of the municipalities of the city of Oebisfelde (on May 27, 2009), Bösdorf (on May 26, 2009), Eickendorf (on May 28, 2009), Etingen (on May 26, 2009), Kathendorf (on May 19 , 2009) May 2009), Rätzlingen (on May 27, 2009), Eschenrode (on May 28, 2009), Döhren (on May 28, 2009), Hödingen (on May 20, 2009), Hörsingen (on May 27, 2009), Schwanefeld (on May 25, 2009), Seggerde (on June 26, 2009), Siestedt (on May 28, 2009), Walbeck (on May 28, 2009) and the Flecken Weferlingen (on May 19, 2009) that their communities dissolved and to be united to a new city Oebisfelde-Weferlingen. This contract was approved by the county as the lower local supervisory authority and came into effect on January 1, 2010.
After implementing the unification agreement of the previously independent city of Oebisfelde, Oebisfelde, Bergfriede, Breitenrode, Buchhorst, Gehrendorf, Lockstedt, Niendorf, Wassensdorf and Weddendorf became districts of the new city of Oebisfelde-Weferlingen. For the included municipality, the local constitution according to §§ 86 ff. Municipality code of Saxony-Anhalt was introduced. The recorded community of Oebisfelde and the future districts of Oebisfelde, Bergfriede, Breitenrode, Buchhorst, Gehrendorf, Lockstedt, Niendorf, Wassensdorf and Weddendorf became the locality of Oebisfelde (since 2015 locality of the city of Oebisfelde) of the new city of Oebisfelde-Weferlingen. A local council with 20 members, including the local mayor, was formed in the commune and now locality.
Railway location
With the advent of the railroad in the second half of the 19th century, the importance of Oebisfeld grew as it became a railway junction . Until 1945, seven lines ran from Oebisfelde station : the Lehrter Bahn to Wolfsburg and Hanover , the Wittingen – Oebisfelde to Wittingen , the Salzwedel – Oebisfelde to Salzwedel , the Lehrter to Stendal and Berlin , the Oebisfelde – Magdeburg to (Neu- ) Haldensleben and Magdeburg, the Helmstedt – Oebisfelde railway and the Schandelah – Oebisfelde railway .
Towards the end of the Second World War , a freight train carrying prisoners from the Neuengamme concentration camp was parked for three days on a siding at Buchhorst station. During this time at least 53 of the doomed died and were first buried in the forest before they were buried in individual graves in a cemetery of honor.
After the end of the Second World War, three of the four cross-border routes were closed. The Lehrter Bahn to the west remained open to interzonal trains , and Oebisfelde became a border station with extensive staff.
On July 27, 1991, there was a train accident at Oebisfelde station when the Dresden – Cologne express train collided with a freight train, in which three railway employees died and 21 passengers were injured. The route to Salzwedel has been closed since September 2002, so that three more routes start from Oebisfelde.
Former transmission system for shortwave
In the summer of 1938, work began on building the Oebisfelde radio transmitter for shortwave broadcasting near Oebisfelde , which went into operation in 1942. The transmitters were housed in bunkered buildings. After the Second World War , residents of Oebisfeld were ordered to be dismantled by the occupying forces of the Soviet Union and the broadcasting buildings were blown up. Today only the well systems for the extraction of the cooling water for the water cooling of the transmitters, the pump house and the postal service house remain of the system. The substation for the power transfer to supply the station is still partially in operation.
Only a few overgrown rubble remains of the other parts of the system.
religion
Four religious communities are represented in Oebisfelde:
The Evangelical Lutheran Church of St. Catherine is of Romanesque origin and was later expanded. Your parish belongs to the Salzwedel parish of the Evangelical Church in Central Germany . The second Protestant church in Oebisfelde, the neo-Romanesque Nicolaikirche built by Conrad Wilhelm Hase in 1896, was used by the parish until 1977. Due to the lack of possibilities for the parish in the time of the GDR to support two churches structurally, and the reduced number of parishioners, it was de-dedicated. It has since been renovated and is now used for cultural events, a development association founded in 1999 supports its preservation.
The Catholic Herz-Jesu-Kirche is located on Bahnhofstrasse (renamed Karl-Marx-Strasse during the GDR era), it was built in 1906/07 and is now part of the parish “St. Hildegard ”based in Gardelegen . Its spire had to be demolished during the GDR era due to structural damage and has not been rebuilt to this day.
The Evangelical Free Church Community of Oebisfelde ( Baptists ) meets in a community room on Schillerstrasse.
The New Apostolic congregation in Oebisfelde has a church on Stendaler Strasse that was built in 2008/09. Before that, there had been a New Apostolic Church in Oebisfelde since 1925, about 100 meters from today's church. A New Apostolic congregation in Oebisfelde was mentioned as early as 1923.
