History and etymology

Early to the 15th century

The site has been a settlement since the Bronze Age , as has been proven by finds in the garden of the Weinbergschen Büdnerhaus and the surrounding area. In further excavations, archaeologists were able to find traces from the Yugoslav period around the 11th century. With the advance of the Ascanians in their area in the middle of the 13th century, the historical trade route changed to a line that stretched from Müncheberg via Frankfurt (Oder) to Posen . New settlements sprang up along the way. The margraves gave them four hooves for each newly founded church. As a result, new sacred buildings were built in numerous places . In this context, a locator Heinrich Pilgerinne or Pilgerim also appeared. This was first mentioned on September 1, 1319 in a document in Guben . The community suspects him to be the founder of Pilgrim. In the course of time, the name changed via Pilgerim (pillgerim, Middle High German: pilgerim → pilgrims, Germanic walon → to wander, to move around ), Pylgerim and Pillegrim to its current form Pillgram . Before 1399 to after 1460 the place was Herman Boetil (in other documents it appears as Boytel, bags, Botel) invested . In 1400 Pillgerim appeared in a Carthusian charter as a place with 64 hooves, four of which were for the pastor. It is therefore likely that there was already a church in the village at that time. In 1405 it first appeared as a parish church in a document from the Lebus diocese . At that time the place had to pay four talents annually to the clergy . In 1415 the von Burgsdorff appeared as the new ruler. They should direct the fortunes of the place until the year 1598. From 1441 onwards they enfeoffed the Grosse family from Frankfurt (Oder) with the place. The yield need not have been very large, however, because Pillgram changed hands again before 1443 until after 1460. The von Eichendorff family appeared between 1484 and 1576 . According to tradition, they lived in Gut Eichendorff (presumably a Vorwerk ), which was lost in the 21st century. From March 26, 1500, the Grosse family was again enfeoffed with the place, after which Elector Joachim II acted as the owner from 1538 to 1598 .

16th Century

Gabled house from 1594/1595

In 1539 the Reformation came to the place. The prince enfeoffed again changing people with the place, including 1574 Friedrich von Burgsdorff, from 1576 to 1582 von Eichendorff and von Röbel. In the years 1594 and 1595 the gable arbor house was built , a half-timbered porch house . In 1608 the von Röbel established a knight's seat in the village. This was devastated in the Thirty Years War . From the year 1654 it is handed down that six Bauernhufen and twelve Kötterhöfe lay desolate . In 1662 craftsmen built a school under the feudal supporter Bergius. From 1665 it came under the influence of the Biegen office ; from 1670 the entire place.

17th century

At the beginning of the 17th century, the village largely recovered from the effects of the war. It came to Prince Menshikov from 1713 to 1727 . During his time, compulsory schooling was introduced in 1717. Menshikov enfeoffed von Burgsdorff with Pillgram around 1720, and then from 1727 to 1731 the place was again taken over by the Biegen office. Again, the yields are likely to have been low, because from 1731 to 1739 Ernst Johann von Biron, from 1739 to 1730 Burkhard Christoph von Münnich and then again the office as liege lord. 1745 that made parish significantly rebuild the church before the Seven Years' War again brought misery to the town. In 1781 the Büdner families founded the Neu-Pillgram plant. In 1800 a brewery and distillery was built in the village.

18th to 21st century

Neu-Pillgram was churched in 1805. A private farm, a colony and 47 residential buildings have come down to us from 1840. A modest economic boom began. It was promoted by the mining of lignite , which was transported with the newly created Lower Silesian-Märkische Railway . After the end of the First World War , the residents erected a memorial for the fallen next to the church in 1918. In 1920 the landowner Joachim Ernst Hugo Rudolf Schulz-Pillgram appeared from the owner of the manor. During the time of National Socialism , Jews had to do forced labor in the village . At the end of the Second World War , numerous residents left the place. Some of the buildings, including the church, were badly damaged. After the end of the war, the station became a reloading point for reparations by order of SMAD .

Since December 31, 2002, Pillgram is legally a district of Jacobsdorf. The district has its own local mayor.

It has been used as a club house and for family celebrations since 2012 and contains the Weinberg family's local collection. This has been active as a local historian since the first finds from the Bronze Age were found on their property.
