Redekin is a village and a district of the unified municipality of Jerichow in the Jerichower Land district in Saxony-Anhalt .

geography

The village of Redekin is on the federal highway 107 , four kilometers from Jerichow in the direction of Genthin.

The village of Redekin includes the districts of Neuredekin and Scharteucke , as well as the Schäferei residential area.

history

Redekin was first mentioned in a document in 1144. The village belonged to the oldest property of the Jerichow monastery. The Redekin estate was owned by the von Randow family from 1327 to 1763 , and then by the von Alvensleben family from 1780 to 1945 . In the intervening period it belonged to Robert Scipio von Lentulus , equestrian general of Frederick the Great, who had a small castle built here in the Frederician Rococo style by builders who had worked on the king's buildings in Potsdam and Sanssouci. The king himself visited him here to inspect the work. The park was filled with numerous monuments, an obelisk, a colonnade based on the model of Sanssouci, an artificially built farming village, a pavilion, an avenue flanked by terracotta vases, a basin, a linden walkway and bosquets. After the sale to Alvensleben, Lentulus' collection of paintings was transferred to Erxleben Castle . In the 19th century, most of the staffage structures fell victim to the Anglicising of the park. The manor house still preserved remnants of furniture and decoration. It burned down at the end of the war in 1945, the pavilion and avenue of vases were also destroyed by 1950.

On September 30, 1928 was Gutsbezirk Redekin associated with the rural community Redekin. On July 1, 1950, the community Scharteucke was incorporated into the community Redekin.

On May 25th, 2009, the local council of Schlagenthin decided to dissolve itself by means of an area change agreement and to unite with 11 other communities to form a new unified community called the City of Jerichow . This contract was approved by the county as the lower local supervisory authority and came into effect on January 1, 2010.

At the same time, the Elbe-Stremme-Fiener administrative community also ceased to exist, as all former member communities merged to form the new unified community “City of Jerichow”.

politics

Detlef Lucht was the last mayor of Redekin.

badges and flags

The coat of arms was approved by the district on July 31, 2008.

Blazon : "Green over silver divided by a golden bar, above a golden bell accompanied by two golden ears of wheat slanted towards the edge of the shield, below three black slanting bars."

In 2008, Redekin commissioned the Magdeburg municipal heraldist Jörg Mantzsch to develop a coat of arms. The lower part of the coat of arms contains parts of the coat of arms of those of Redekin who were resident in the place for a long time and who shaped it. The bell refers to the legend of the lost village of Rehbogh, in whose church the bell once hung and was later found by a swineherd. The peculiarity of the bell is that it has no crown, but only a bracket for suspension through which a bolt goes. The ears of wheat merely indicate the agricultural character that Redekin has had from the beginning to the present day.

The colors of Redekins are: gold (yellow) - green.

The flag is yellow-green (1: 1) striped (horizontal shape: stripes running horizontally, lengthways shape: stripes running vertically) and centered with the town's coat of arms.
