Putbus is a country town in the district of Vorpommern-Rügen in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Germany). Putbus is the youngest town on the island of Rügen and, with the Lauterbach district, the oldest seaside resort on the island and in Pomerania .

The town of Putbus was founded in 1810 by Wilhelm Malte I, Prince of Putbus , who had his hometown expanded as a planned town in the classical style so that the town ensemble fit in with the palace and park.

With the establishment of the first Pomeranian seaside resort in 1816 near Lauterbach and the construction of the Goor bathhouse , the spa architecture found its way onto the island of Rügen.

The name White City is derived from the white-painted houses of the Rügen prince's residence .

The name Putbus comes from the Slavic epod boz and means behind the elder bush .

Putbus

The Putbus area was part of the Principality of Rügen until 1325/26 . Mentioned for the first time in 1286 as Putbus , the place was the ancestral seat of a noble family of Slavic origin. The Lords of Putbus were equal to the Rügen princes in terms of property rights and were considered their sidelines, later a fiefdom developed . After the Rügen princes died out in the 14th century, Putbus came to the Duchy of Pomerania . With the Peace of Westphalia in 1648, Rügen came under Swedish rule. In 1815 the place and Neuvorpommern came to the Prussian province of Pomerania .

The headquarters of the Lords von Putbus was the stone house . It was mentioned several times in documents in 1371. In 1416 the name changed from “house” to “castle”, which was extended in the 15th century in the Gothic style and at the beginning of the 17th century it was converted into the three-winged Putbus castle.

From 1808 to 1823 Prince Malte zu Putbus built his residence and a bathing resort in Lauterbach based on the model of Bad Doberan and Heiligendamm . The first seaside resort on Rügen was opened there in 1816. In 1817/18 Malte had the Goor bathhouse built. The Residenztheater was built from 1819 to 1821 and rebuilt again in 1826. The Marstall , built between 1821 and 1824, served Malte as a horse stable. From 1824 to 1853 he finally had the orangery built.

From 1827 to 1832 the castle was rebuilt in the classical style. The Putbus Castle Church was built between 1844 and 1846 (initially as a Kurhaus). The redesign of the palace park began in 1804, the monkey house was completed in 1830 and the pheasant house five years later.

The first bourgeois house was built in 1810 as a small brewery. The houses on the "Circus" were built between 1815 and 1860. In 1836 the former royal pedagogy was opened as an educational institution.

In 1889 Putbus received a rail connection from Bergen , and in 1895 the first section of the narrow- gauge Rasender Roland train to Binz was built .

In 1823, Prince Putbus granted city justice for trade and commerce; Putbus was not granted full city ​​rights until July 2, 1960.

Putbus Castle around 1900, blown up in 1962, torn down until 1964

In 1962 the Putbus Castle was blown up and razed to the ground by 1964, so that only the outline of the building in the green area and the lake terrace of the castle can be seen. Putbus had a theater, an English-style park, a fairground enclosure and an orangery. From 1991 onwards, the historic city center with the circus, the market square with the town hall, the orangery and the stables as a theater were fundamentally refurbished as part of the urban development subsidy and the urban monument protection program . The white facades have also been retained or refreshed, they offer a closed city center in white.

Putbus has been a state-approved health resort since 1997.

In the 2010s, the IT college Putbus was located in what was then the first bourgeois residential building.

From 1818 to 1947 Putbus was part of the Rügen district in the Prussian province of Pomerania , then until 1952 in the state of Mecklenburg . From 1952 to 1955 the city was the administrative seat of the Putbus district in the newly established GDR district of Rostock . The Kreis Bergen was on 1 January 1956 with the county mountains to Rügen county united. From 1956 to 2011 Putbus belonged to the Rügen district in the Rostock district, from 1990 to 2011 to the Rügen district in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania . Since the district reform in 2011 , the city has been in the Vorpommern-Rügen district .

Former Putbus pedagogy
Building of the pedagogy

The largest house on the circus is the former Putbus pedagogy , which was built between 1833 and 1836 according to plans by Johann Gottfried Steinmeyer. From 2002 to 2014 Pädagogium IT College Putbus was staying, a private training institution for computer science professionals . The building was auctioned to an unknown telephone bidder on December 6, 2015.

It was Prince Malte zu Putbus who wanted to give his princely seat a higher education institution with the aim of promoting the education and upbringing of his country's children. So he had the house at Circus 16 built in 1833. The Princely Pedagogy at Putbus was built with a boarding school, cafeteria and gym. In 1836 he handed it over to the Prussian state as the Pädagogium Regium (Royal Pedagogy). Until the Second World War, after the University of Greifswald, education was the most important educational institution in Western Pomerania. From 1941 to 1945 the Rügen National Political Education Institute was housed in the building. After the Second World War, teachers were trained from 1946 to 1975. At times there were 200 students in training. From 1975 to 1994 hard of hearing children were educated in the buildings. In 1994, the “Foundation Association for Multiple Disabled Deaf, Hard of Hearing and Deaf-Blind People eV” took over the facility. From 2000 to 2002 the historic building was partially empty and was left to decay because the “Special Education Center for the Hearing Impaired with Multiple Disabilities” moved into a new building complex in Putbus.

To the west of the city is the so-called Primanerloch , which goes back to a custom at the pedagogy.

Technical equipment

Narrow gauge railway
Racing Roland at the exit from Putbus

Putbus is the starting point for the Rasender Roland narrow-gauge railway (gauge 750 millimeters) from the Lauterbach district via Binz to Göhren . This daily running railway was built between 1895 and 1899 and has mainly served tourism since the end of the 20th century. Class 99.48 (built in 1938) and 99.78 (built in 1953) steam locomotives are used. It was not until 1999 that the line was extended to Lauterbach (Mole). For this purpose, the standard-gauge railway line Bergen – Lauterbach (Mole) in the section between Putbus and Lauterbach was extended by another rail to form a three-rail track system.

In 1999, according to plans by Stralsund architect Niclas Dünnebacke, a modern gas station building was built, which is combined with the small train station.

On July 4, 1896, the 35.5 km stretch from Altefähr to Putbus was opened. Due to insufficient utilization, traffic on this route was stopped in December 1967. Today the route can be used as a cycling and hiking trail.

Transmitter

A transmission system for medium wave was located near Putbus . During the GDR times, this system was used to distribute the program for Radio GDR Ferienwelle. The Deutschlandradio Kultur program was broadcast from there in DRM mode until 2009 . The antenna for the one-kilowatt transmitter was a 51-meter-high, guyed steel truss mast , which was built in 1960 and insulated from the ground, with a cross-shaped roof capacity on top.

The medium wave transmitter Putbus on 729 kHz was the last of its kind in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. In order to save it from dismantling after the fall of the Wall, the media authority put out a tender in mid-2010 to find private operators. In addition to Western Pomerania, the station would also reach Rügen and Usedom as well as parts of southern Sweden and Schleswig-Holstein. However, there was no interested party and the transmitter mast was dismantled in mid-2012.

It is worth mentioning a weather radar system with a special radome , the data of which is incorporated into the German Weather Service .
