Podmokle Wielkie (German Groß Posemuckel , 1937-1939 Groß Posenbrück , 1939-1945 Posenbrück ) is a village with 340 inhabitants in the municipality of Babimost (Bomst) in Poland .

Geographical location

The place with an area of ​​1357.5  hectares is located three kilometers north of the city of Babimost (Bomst) on the eastern bank of the Lazy Obra (Gniła Obra) in the west Polish Lubusz Voivodeship . The district town of Zielona Góra (Grünberg in Silesia) is 45 kilometers away.

The province road 304 runs through the place, which connects Okunin (Langmeil) at the state road 32 and Babimost with Kosieczyn (Kuschten). The railway line from Guben / Gubin to Zbąszynek (Neu Bentschen) touches the northeast of the town, but the next train station is Babimost.

history

The village on the edge of the Obra Marshes goes back to an old Slavic settlement that existed before the German colonization of the area. In 1257 Groß Posemuckel was given to the Cistercian monastery of Obra. In 1319 the place went from Poland to the Electorate of Brandenburg , later to the Duchy of Glogau and finally in 1335 back to Poland. During the Second Partition of Poland in 1793, the village came under the Kingdom of Prussia and the Obra Monastery was secularized and administered by the Prussian state. In 1794 some of its residents took part in the Kościuszko uprising . During the division of the monastery rule in 1795 to Prussian nobles and state officials, the Prussian government councilor von Unruh acquired Groß Posemuckel.

Traditionally, the inhabitants practiced fishing and agriculture. The place retained its Catholic and Polish character, and many residents were of Polish nationality. In 1929 , Jan Baczewski opened a Polish school in the neighboring town of Klein Posemuckel .

During the Second World War there was persecution of the Poles and arrests and deportation to prisons and the Sachsenhausen and Ravensbrück concentration camps .

Groß Posemuckel belonged to the Prussian district of Bomst from 1818 until its dissolution in 1938 and then to the district of Züllichau-Schwiebus until 1945 . In 1937 it was renamed Groß Posenbrück and between 1939 and 1945 it was merged with Klein Posenbrück to form the Posenbrück community.

After the end of World War II, the village became Polish and the merger was reversed. It is called Podmokle Wielkie.
