Quickborn is the largest part of the municipality of Gusborn in the Lüchow-Dannenberg district in Lower Saxony . The village is 3 km northwest of Groß Gusborn. The B 191 runs north ; the Elbe flows north 3 km away. The place lies on the north-western edge of the sandy, predominantly overgrown with pine forest "Langendorfer Geestinsel"; to the north it drops off quite steeply to the damp lowlands of the Elbe.
History, development
- The listed objects in the village are listed in detail in the list of architectural monuments in Gusborn # Quickborn and some are illustrated.
Originally, the core of Quickborn was a very densely built-up, two-line village . After major fires in 1835, around 1853/54 and around 1862/63, the buildings were thinned out by rebuilding individual courtyards elsewhere. Especially in the area of the Dorfstrasse there are still old buildings from the 17th to the 19th centuries, including individual barns and various Low German hall houses . Furthermore, old oak trees characterize the townscape. Later the town was expanded to the east ("Am Kosakenberg" and the new building area south of it) and to the southwest along the "Am Mühlenberge" road. There is also a Paltrock windmill that is no longer functional, probably from the late 18th century.
The Protestant church, St. Maria Magdalena, is a rectangular baroque hall building made of brick with a mansard roof . It was built from 1777. Its massive west tower is essentially from the Middle Ages . The furnishings with the pulpit altar , which probably dates from 1784, appear uniform. When a barrel ceiling was installed in 1960, the second gallery was removed.
On July 1, 1972 Quickborn was incorporated into the community of Gusborn.
