history

Local history

In 1975 a burial ground was discovered near Reuden that contained clay vessels from around 1200 BC. Chr. Contained. These are now in the local history museum in Calau.

The first mention was in 1438. The name is derived from the Lower Sorbian word ruda for lawn iron stone . In 1447 the place was named as Rewden , 1448 as Ruden and 1527 as Reuden . The Sorbian variant of the name Rudna was mentioned in 1761 and 1843. Reuden was often mentioned with the place Plieskendorf , both places belonged to the same owners until 1900. From 1447 to 1649 the estate was owned by the Zabeltitz family . Other owners were the von Minckwitz family and the von Liszt family. In 1690, the owner Adam Heinrich von Liszt exchanged Gut Reuden with Ernst Matthias von Borcke for Gut Döberitz . Borcke lived in Dresden in Saxony and, inspired by the building activity there, had the estate expanded in a baroque style. Among other things, he had the manor chapel redesigned.

As a result of the Congress of Vienna , Reuden came to the Kingdom of Prussia and belonged to the district of Calau . During this time the Reuden manor was acquired by Joaquim von Oriola , a Portuguese nobleman and diplomat who was naturalized in Prussia after the Congress of Vienna.

After the Second World War, Reuden belonged to the Calau district, which was newly founded in 1952, and was incorporated into Saßleben on May 1, 1974. In the mid-1980s, Reuden was in the mining reserve and was threatened by the planned Calau-Nordost opencast mine . The place belongs to the church district Niederlausitz . On October 26, 2003, Saßleben was incorporated with Reuden as well as with the places Mlode , Groß Mehßow , Kemmen , Bolschwitz and Werchow in Calau.
