The Peter Warschow Collective Foundation is a foundation under civil law with legal capacity and is based in Greifswald .

history

In 1952, the Peter Warschow Foundation, established in 1486 by Greifswald's mayor Peter Warschow , was merged with four other foundations. In 1956 the foundations, convents and the St. Georg and St. Spiritus hospitals in Greifswald were incorporated - with the exception of the Johanna Odebrecht Foundation , which remained independent. A total of 72 individual foundations have been incorporated into the Peter Warschow Collective Foundation, which still exists today. Most of them had used up their capital or, as far as property was concerned, lost it by converting it into public property .

The name is a bit misleading today - after the historical property assets were transferred back - as the Warschow Foundation itself only accounts for a small part of the foundation's assets. The much larger part comprises the historical property of the Sankt Spiritus Hospital.

Former church of St. Spiritus Hospital

St. Spiritus acquired its first larger property in 1280 with the acquisition of two Hägerhufen west of Greifswald , from which the 150 hectare Heilgeisthof hospital estate later emerged, now a district of Levenhagen . It is still the only property that is owned by the foundation. The city of Greifswald had joint ownership rights to the remaining estates, partly from the beginning and partly later. Attempts by the city to take over the entire hospital property after the Reformation led to legal disputes. These ended in 1590 with a settlement according to which a number of goods belonged to the city to two thirds and the hospitals to one third.

Later there was a land swap in which the city of Greifswald ceded its two-thirds share of the seven farms in Sanz, now part of Groß Kiesow , in exchange for a property owned by the hospital of 126.15 hectares in the Stadtfeldmark as an area for urban expansion.

Thus, in addition to Heilgeisthof, the Sanz district now belonged entirely to the hospital. After 1945 the property was expropriated and given to the public. This was one reason for the amalgamation of the foundations in the 1950s, which also meant the end of the hospital foundations as pious foundations . After reunification, the foundation's property was transferred back.

capital

The real estate assets can be found in Neu Negentin ( Dargelin ), Jeeser ( Sundhagen ), Jager (Sundhagen), Kirchdorf (Sundhagen), Dömitzow (Sundhagen), Oberhinrichshagen (Sundhagen), Stahlbrode (Sundhagen) and Broock ( Alt Tellin ).

Today the foundation has over 3000 hectares of land jointly owned with the city of Greifswald in the surrounding area, over 860 hectares of forest also jointly with the city and sole ownership in the localities of Sanz and Heilgeisthof totaling 700 hectares.

Added to this are the properties in the city, the identity component of the foundation :

  • Caspar-David-Friedrich-Straße 1: New building of a foundation house in 2006
  • Brinkstraße 20, Stephani-Convent (goes back to a foundation of the lawyer Joachim Stephani ), student accommodation
  • Straße des Friedens 13–15: 23 apartments, new construction of three foundation houses in 2014
