manor

The Etzdorf manor is located in Etzdorf in the Steuden district of the Teutschenthal municipality in the Saale district in Saxony-Anhalt . The manor has been the residence of the Hayessen family since 1995 .

history

The Etzdorf property was owned by a monastery from 880 to around 1200 as "Erhardesdorp" or "Erardesdorff" (Hersfeld Monastery, Kaltenborn Monastery). As a farming village of Erhardesdorf, Etzdorf later became desolate because the residents probably fled to Steuden because of the military and trade route that ran past the site (from Halle via Querfurt to Thuringia).

In the Middle Ages Etzdorf was owned by various noble families that are not fully known. A von Etzdorf family probably started out here; At the beginning of the 16th century a full wheel was from Etzdorf Canon zu Naumburg. From Biering's "Clerus Mansfeldicus" it can be seen that in 1569 Etzdorf belonged to the Hessian Malsberg family, as part of the Schraplau sub-office of the Mansfeld county .

In 1620 Niclas Schwuckardt von Schauburg bought the sub-office Schraplau with Etzdorf. After his death in 1643 he was followed by his nephew Albert. On June 18, 1679, the Counts of Mansfeld by comparison u. a. also Etzdorf to the Princely Braunschweig-Lüneburg-Cellisches District Administrator Christoph von der Wense , who ceded it to his sister Eleonore with archbishopric Magdeburg permission, who was married to Johann Casimir von der Schulenburg. So Etzdorf came to the von der Schulenburg family .

From this, Friedrich Wilhelm I bought the Etzdorf property in 1732 in order to give it to his youngest son, Prince August Ferdinand. The oldest part of today's Etzdorf Manor was built during this time. After Prince August Ferdinand's death in 1813, his second son, Prince August Ferdinand, the younger brother of Prince Louis Ferdinand, inherited the Schraplau sub-office with the Etzdorf sub-office. Officials of the prince cultivated and administered the Vorwerk as tenants. Around 1800, for example, Friedrich Philipp Wentzel became Etzdorf's tenant; also when, after the prince's death in 1843, Etzdorf fell to his eldest daughter, canon Eveline von Waldenburg. Eveline's romantic liaison with Pastor Weise from the neighboring village of Wansleben heated the hearts of the Prussian royal family at this time.

After her death in 1847, Etzdorf remained in the hands of the Hohenzollern family until the royal councilor Friedrich Schröder (born 1806 in Bremen as the son of an important Bremen shipowner family , died 1874) replaced his son bailiff Albert Schroeder (born 1841, died 1916 in Etzdorf) acquired the manor in 1871 with the support of his friend Baron Wilhelm von Humboldt . After Albert, his son Clemens (1875–1925) took over the manor. After Clemens died at the age of almost 50, his wife Katharina “Käthe” ​​Schröder (1885–1945) temporarily managed the estate until it was taken over by her son Max in 1934. Katharina's villa ("Tante Käthe's house"), where she spent her retirement, still exists in the village today. Dr. Max Schröder-Etzdorf (1908–1984) developed the 500-hectare economy into a high-tech agricultural business in plant production and storage management. The manor remained in Schröder's possession until 1945.

After Dr. Max Schröder-Etzdorf inherited the manor in 1934, he gradually introduced new agricultural technology, modern bookkeeping and social measures in line with the National Socialist agricultural policy . He reported on this change in the course of the production battle in a brochure that was published four times. Schröder-Etzdorf was imprisoned in 1944 for his activities in the Reusch district and charged before the state court. The charges had to be dropped. Erich Neuss described the manor in 1935 as a "functional structure of the modern large-scale agricultural enterprise".

The private owners of the manor were expropriated by the SED rulers after 1945 and the manor was assigned to the University of Halle as a teaching and experimental property. The estate, now a "state-owned enterprise" (VEB), has since been given the following names:

Period Legal entity Insinuation designation
1945-1950 Province of Saxony Inst. F. Business and industrial studies Experimental good
1950-1955 Public property Goods management VE LVGood
1956-30. June 1958 Public property Minist. LF VE LVGood
July 1, 1958–1966 Public property Council of the District Hall VE LVGood
1967-1974 Public property Goods directorate of the DAL VE LVG of DAL
1975-1990 Public property Council of the District VEG
1990-1993 Treuhand / BVS Estate management

Max Schröder-Etzdorf, now only the manager of his own farm, managed to save the property from the threatened division through the land reform by taking over the property by the University of Halle . In 1990 the property came under the administration of the Treuhandanstalt (later "BVVG / Bodenverwertungs- und Verwaltungsgesellschaft mbH") in accordance with the unification agreement. This managed the business as part of their trust goods company (TGG). In 1995 the Etzdorf estate with its central courtyard and agricultural land was leased to the farmer Herko Hayessen on a long-term basis. Thus, descendants of Friedrich Schröder (the first Schröder owner) live and live today on the Etzdorf manor, the Hayessen family .

building

lock

The castle was built in 1906 in Art Nouveau style as the family seat of Albert and his son Clemens Schröder. Until 1946 it served as the residence and administrative seat of the Schröder family as well as accommodation for guests and house staff. At the urging of the influential Dr. From 1946 Max Schröder-Etzdorf was the administrative seat of the teaching and research estate of the University of Halle, the seat of branch offices of scientific institutes and living space for employees and apprentices of the estate and the institutes. It has been the residence of the Hayessen family since 1995.

Wash house

The wash house was built by the owner of the manor at the time, Dr. Max Schröder-Etzdorf, set up so that his workers on the estate could shower and bathe there. The house was also used to wash the laundry of the farm workers' families. Schroeder thus also proved his progressive attitude in the design of living conditions. In 2001 the youth club of the municipality of Steuden was set up in the old wash house. The inauguration took place in 2001.

Retinue House

Schroeder had the old restaurant converted into a "retinue house" for his workers. Events could take place in Etzdorf and there was no longer any need to switch to Steuden.

silo

The silo of the property was built in 1942 from concrete shells, wood and roof tiles. The bricks were supplied by the "Louisenwerk" Thonindustrie Aktien Gesellschaft in Voigtstedt (Kyffhäuser / Thuringia), founded in 1900.

Agriculture

From 1945 onwards, the Etzdorf teaching and experimental estate was subordinate to the Institute for Industrial and Industrial Studies of the Martin Luther University. The agricultural labor research department had a branch office until 1955. In 1946 the Institute for Arable and Crop Production set up a test station with a test area of ​​approx. 15 ha. The Agrometeorological Institute was located in the manor from 1946 to 1953. The Institute for Mechanization Potsdam-Bornim maintained a test station for agricultural machinery. In addition, the Institute for Animal Breeding in Cattle, Pigs and Sheep and the Institute for Small Animal Breeding in poultry stock breeding provided research and advice. Grain, sugar beet, potatoes, pea propagation and canned peas were cultivated.

After the economic, monetary and social union (July 1, 1990) the VEG Etzdorf was placed under the trust. The sow husbandry with mast-runner production in the closed system remained until 1992. The former was then discontinued. The Barnstädt Agricultural Cooperative bought the fattening stables and still operates them.

Today the farm covers around 350 hectares. It becomes v. a. Grown cereals. "AgriCom", an agricultural symposium, has been taking place on the estate since 2010.
