Quoltitz is the name of a deserted area on the island of Rügen on the western edge of today's Jasmund National Park in the municipality of Sagard , halfway between Gummanz and Nardevitz; westward a road led to Bobbin . The Quoltitz waterworks is today the only permanent building in the entire Quoltitz district (a district of the Sagard municipality).
Surname
The name Quoltitz probably comes from - like most place names on Rügen - the Polabian language from the time of the Slavic settlement ( Ranen ) and referred to the Kolata family association that was located here at that time .
history
In 1318 the hamlet is called "Koldatitze". In 1485, the Stralsund councilor Bertram von Lübeck sold the settlement to the Marienkrone monastery. In 1532 there were 6 farms with a total of six Hufen arable land. In 1560, the St. Anne's and Brigitten Monastery in Stralsund acquired Quoltitz, and at the end of the 16th century the Bavemannsche Armenstiftung in Stralsund received part of the property. In 1599 seven farms with one hoof of land are given, in 1695 one of the farms was in desolation.
The farms were laid by the end of the 18th century and the hamlet became a manor . The monastery of St. Anne and Brigitten received the entire property back in 1905. At the beginning of the 20th century, Carl Hochrath, then Carl Sievert, is the tenant of the approximately 1,000 acre monastery property, then Walter Sievert. In 1930, however, he had to file for bankruptcy after a bad harvest.
The estate existed until the 1950s and was then given up in connection with the closure of the Quoltitzer chalk quarry , where some of the residents worked. The former chalk quarry quickly became a pioneer site for some rare plants and animals. It was therefore declared a 42 hectare nature reserve in 1986, which has been part of the Jasmund National Park since 1990.
Attractions
- The manor house, built around 1800, was a single-storey, plastered eaves house with a field stone foundation and corner blocks protruding above the ground. The inner walls consisted of half-timbering with a clay rod filling. The roof was a half-hip roof with a crown covering and a central dormer window. The manor house fell into disrepair at the end of the 1970s; the houses of the former employees, built at the beginning of the 20th century, stood a little longer. The buildings were used for the extraction of building materials, today in a young forest next to the Quoltitz waterworks only the manor wall, foundations of the farm buildings and instead of the manor house there is a small elevation and remains of the cellar.
- The Quoltitz chalk works and the chalk quarry were leased independently from agriculture. After the extraction of chalk became unprofitable and abandoned, nature has recaptured the landscape and overgrown the traces of chalk mining and the remains of the plants.
- The Quoltitz Sacrificial Stone - a boulder weighing approx. 73 tons with many traces of early human work
