geography

The Altmark Pollitz is located in the extreme north of Saxony-Anhalt on Aland , a few kilometers before its confluence with the Elbe in Schnackenburg . The Aland-Elbe-Niederung in the north of the village is a nature reserve and an EU bird sanctuary. From the point of view of the settlement geography, the location is a street village with a church that has been severely deformed due to manor formation .

Neighboring towns are Wanzer in the north, Scharpenhufe in the southeast and Deutsch in the west.

structure

According to the district directory of the State of Saxony-Anhalt, today's district of Pollitz consists of Pollitz and the smaller settlement Kahlenberge-Ziegelei, which consists of two residential areas: Kahlenberge and Ziegelei. In 2011, Vor Pollitz was also mentioned as a settlement in the district directory.

history

The center of Pollitz (1950s)

Pollitz was originally laid out by the Wends as a round village, which can still be seen in the corner . The first verifiable documentary mention comes from 1208, whereby the Wends settled there hundreds of years earlier, which can be seen from an urn field in the Pollitzer Feldmark. The name Pollitz is of Wendish origin and means field valley. In 1310, Waldemar , Margrave of the Mark Brandenburg , gave Pollitz to the Amelungsborn monastery east of the Voglers . Today's place emerged from two different villages. The German village of Fiefhufen was built next to the Wendish town of Pollitz . Up until the 16th century, the two villages still had their own schools .

The historian Peter P. Rohrlach points out that the claim that there originally were Wendisch- and Deutsch Pollitz cannot be confirmed from the available sources. In addition, Fiefhufen was not an independent village, but it was Hennig's wood from "viff huffen auer den Alandt", leased from the Schulzen von Jagow. The first mention comes from the year 1319 as Polnitz . The first mention of Deutsch als Duceke in 1208 refers to the neighboring village of Deutsch .

On September 30, 1928, the Pollitz manor from the Osterburg district was merged with the Pollitz rural community. At the same time, the Scharpenhufe estate was united with the rural community of Pollitz (with the residential areas Ganseburg, Nattewisch, brickworks), with the exception of the Dosse colony, which came to the rural community of Groß Garz .

On July 25, 1952, the municipality of Pollitz was reclassified from the Osterburg district to the Seehausen district. On July 2, 1965, the community came to the Osterburg district . On July 1, 1994 she finally came to the district of Stendal.

Until December 31, 2009 Pollitz was an independent municipality with the district Pollitz and the residential areas Kahlenberge and Ziegelei as well as the district Scharpenhufe with the residential area Nattewisch.

The municipal councils of the communities of Aulosen (on June 23, 2009), Krüden (on June 17, 2009), Pollitz (on June 19, 2009) and Wanzer (on June 9, 2009) decided that their communities should be dissolved and be united into a new parish called Aland . This contract was approved by the county as the lower local supervisory authority and came into effect on January 1, 2010.

The former rural community of Pollitz included:

• the village of Pollitz
• Before Pollitz (Menzendorfshof), a farmyard, 1.5 kilometers southwest of the village
• Neuhof (Wellenhof), a former estate, one kilometer southwest of the village

From 1928 onwards came from the former Pollitz estate :

• the manor Pollitz in the north of the village of Pollitz
• the forestry Övellgünne also called Vorwerk or Gut Oevelgünne, just under two kilometers north of the estate
• Kahlenberge brickworks , one kilometer north-northwest of the estate
• Kahlenberge , a former sheep farm one kilometer northwest

From 1929 until the end of 2009, the places from the former Scharpenhufe estate were part of it:

• the village of Scharpenhufe about two kilometers southeast of Pollitz
• Ganseburg (Gänseburg Colony) two kilometers east-northeast of Scharpenhufe, no longer exists today
• Nattewisch (Nathewisch) just under a kilometer east of Scharpenhufe
• Brick factory one kilometer north of Scharpenhufe no longer exists today
