structure
The Oranienburg district is divided into different locations, in the south is the Chaussee area , the Ernst Thälmann settlement at the train station near the memorial , the Friedenthal district , the Teerofen district and the center of the church.
From the Hannental mulberry plantation, founded in 1751 near Sachsenhausen in the corner between the Ruppiner Canal and the Havel, the Friedenthal district emerged in 1804, after which it was converted into an estate that belonged to the Minister of State von Schrötter .
history
The current location of Sachsenhausen was mentioned for the first time in 1300. In that year, the Askanische Burg Neumühl was built to protect the Havel crossing. The first iron hammer of the Mittelmark was built here. In addition, a grinding and cutting mill was built in which all farmers who lived between the ridge of the Glien and the Havel had to have their grain ground. In 1349 the castle and the estate were called the New House . The mill was rebuilt after the destruction in 1402 by the Ruppiner and Pomeranians allied with the Quitzows . In 1448 construction began on the Sachsenhausen lock . After 1652 these mills at the lock became known as Oranienburger Mühlen. At the lock, the Berg colony was formed, in which two fence setters had lived since 1690, who had to wait for the gate of the zoo established by Electress Luise Henriette .
North of this colony and east of the trunk road to Löwenberg , the community of Sachsenhausen was founded as a Saxon spinner village in 1752. Sachsenhausen was the first spinner village in Kurmark , and from 1830 it was also a skipper's village .
In 1914, the Evangelical Church in Sachsenhausen, planned from 1903, was inaugurated.
During the Nazi era, the Sachsenhausen concentration camp had been located southeast of the community since 1936 . Subsequently, the site was used as Soviet special camp No. 7 Sachsenhausen until 1950 . Although the respective names refer to Sachsenhausen, concentration camps and special camps were located in the area of the Sandhausen district of the city of Oranienburg .
From May 1, 1945, the first action committee worked in Sachsenhausen, headed by Erich Schmidt, the first mayor after the war. In September 1945 the first land reform was introduced. Between 1945 and 1974 there were ten mayors in Sachsenhausen.
On April 1, 1974, the place was incorporated into the city of Oranienburg.
