history

Slavic precursor settlements of the place existed more than 1000 years ago. The name Scharbeutz goes back to the Slavic village Scorbuze or Schoreboce . This name means something like "the court of Skorobyc "; The latter name is divided into the parts skorz (slav. "fast, nimble") and bytz (slav. "be, exist").

Under Count Adolf II von Schauenburg and Holstein , the Frisians , Saxony , Westphalia and Holsten took over the land from 1150 onwards . Pönitz was first mentioned in 1221 as Penze , Scharbeutz in 1271 as Scarbuce and Gleschendorf in 1259 as Golesko .

In the 15th century the area was ruled by the Ahrensbök Charterhouse and influenced by the Danes in the 17th century ; State estates such as the Gronenberger Hof (built in 1408 as a successor to Snykrode / Snikrode Castle) were founded. It was not until the 19th century that the coastal area began to develop independently.

In 1850 less than 200 people lived in Scharbeutz, Haffkrug had about 200 and Gleschendorf about 300 inhabitants. Beach tourism developed in Haffkrug from 1812 and in Scharbeutz from 1837. Nevertheless, the Elisabethbad in Haffkrug was not completed until 1840, the Augustusbad in Scharbeutz until 1850 by the Hamburg merchant Charles Kelley. (The history of the community is vividly and extensively presented in the museum for regional history of the Heimatverein in Pönitz.) Until the Greater Hamburg Act , today's community area belonged to the state of Oldenburg . On May 3, 1945, the Cap Arcona and the Deutschland were sunk by British air raids off the coast of Scharbeutz . 7,000 people died, most of them prisoners from Neuengamme concentration camp . (Numerous finds and photos are also on display for the event in the museum in Pönitz.)

In the period after the Second World War , the population doubled due to numerous refugees from the eastern regions and the Baltic States . The tourists stayed away and a revival did not start until the 1950s.

Religions

The inhabitants of Scharbeutz are mostly of the Evangelical Lutheran denomination . In the area of ​​the secular community there are two parishes: Scharbeutz - with the beach church Scharbeutz and the Gerold church Klingberg as buildings - and Gleschendorf with the field stone church Gleschendorf. They belong to the church district Ostholstein in Sprengel Schleswig and Holstein of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany / North Church.

A Roman Catholic minority is assigned to the Catholic parish of St. Marien Ahrensbök . The community belongs to the deanery Eutin of the Archdiocese of Hamburg .

Incorporations

On January 1, 1971, a sub-area of ​​the Ratekau community with then around 30 inhabitants was reclassified to the Haffkrug-Scharbeutz community. On January 1, 1974, the communities of Gleschendorf and Haffkrug-Scharbeutz were combined to form the community of Scharbeutz.

coat of arms

The coat of arms was approved on November 12, 1974.

Blazon : "16-fold of silver and red and a golden heart shield, inside a torn, red-tongued blue bear head."

In 1974 the communities of Gleschendorf and Haffkrug-Scharbeutz merged. With this merger, the three districts, which had already formed a community unit under the name Gleschendorf before 1955, were reunited under a new name. The newly formed community adopted the previous Gleschendorfer coat of arms as a landmark. The bear's head, placed in the center of the coat of arms by the heart shield, is taken in a slightly modified form from the family coat of arms of the noble von Buchwaldt family . The Buchwaldt were the first owners of a large part of the villages united in today's Scharbeutz. The change of the coat of arms represents in a heraldic appealing representation the multitude of villages and living places, which were connected by several municipal legal associations to today's municipality Scharbeutz. The colors red and silver document the affiliation of the municipality and its parts to the Holstein region. Even while they belonged to the Oldenburg Principality of Lübeck (after 1803) they were subject to the Holstein sovereignty. Supplemented by the Schleswig colors of blue and gold, the coat of arms shows the location of the municipality in the state of Schleswig-Holstein. Today, Scharbeutz is a popular seaside resort and thus successfully continues a tradition that began in the 19th century.

The coat of arms was designed by the Brunsbüttel heraldist Willy "Horsa" Lippert .

flag

The flag was approved on July 11, 1984.

The flag cloth is framed sixteen times in white and red and covered in the middle with a yellow heraldic shield with a blue, red-tongued bear head.
