geography

Remplin lies at the foot of Mecklenburg Switzerland , between the cities of Malchin and Teterow .

history

In 1283, Remplin, which at that time already consisted of the two estates Hohen- and Siden- and Gross- and Klein-Remplin, was first mentioned in a document. In 1405 the Hahn family was first named as a shareholder, and in the following two decades they acquired all of Remplin's property. In 1685 the place consisted of the districts of Hohen- and Siden-Remplin and the knight seat Müggenburg.

By the end of the 18th century, Remplin had developed into the economic center of a whole range of goods which the Hahns had brought together over the centuries. The place experienced a heyday on the threshold of the 19th century under Friedrich II. Count von Hahn . Since the 1790s he developed Remplin into a place of enlightenment and modern science. Particularly in astronomy , he has lasting merits, as evidenced by the remains of his observatory that have survived to this day . For a quarter of a century, Remplin was the center and seat of rule for the entire Hahns' holdings of almost 100 estates with associated farms and villages in Mecklenburg, Holstein and the Wetterau .

Remplin Castle around 1900, largely destroyed by the 1940 fire

The heyday ended for Remplin with the "theater count" Karl von Hahn , who squandered the huge fortune of his family within a few years. In 1816 Hahn's property went bankrupt, in which numerous properties - including Remplin - fell into other hands. From 1816 to 1848 the Rempliner estate belonged to Prince Georg Wilhelm von Schaumburg-Lippe , then to the landscape director Carl von Maltzahn (1797–1868), landowner on Sommersdorf. Duke Georg zu Mecklenburg [-Strelitz], son of the Strelitz Grand Duke Georg of the same name , and his wife Grand Duchess Katharina Michailowna Romanowa acquired the estate in 1851. From 1865, the castle was converted into a nobility seat in the French Neo-Renaissance style by the Privy Councilor Friedrich Hitzig . In 1878 the neo-Gothic church was consecrated, which the Grand Duchess Marie von Hessen-Kassel had donated in memory of her children Georg and Caroline , who died shortly after one another in 1876 . Since a fire in 1940, only fragments of the castle, which characterizes the townscape, have survived.

On January 1, 1951, the previously independent communities of Neu Panstorf and Retzow were incorporated.

coat of arms

Coat of arms of Remplin
 Blazon : “Quartered; Field 1 and 4: two flat blue double rafters in gold; Fields 2 and 3: two floating golden bars in red, with four knobs at the top and three at the bottom. "

The coat of arms was designed by the Berlin company Klar . It was approved on May 23, 1996 by the Ministry of the Interior and registered under the number 104 of the coat of arms of the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.

Justification of the coat of arms: The coat of arms combines the coats of arms of two aristocratic families who were temporarily owners of parts of Remplin in the 14th and 15th centuries. Fields 1 and 4 show the coat of arms of the von Wozenitz family with a slight change: "In the golden field two pointed cross stripes of blue color". Fields 2 and 3 show the coat of arms of the von Stahl family in a different tinge: "In the white field, seven wall peaks set four at the top and three at the bottom".

The former municipality did not have an officially approved flag .
