geology

The area is criss-crossed by several embankment-like Osers from the last Ice Age. In the stream and river valleys there were often peat hollows for fuel production. The Oser opened up gravel or sand pits in many places, later these Oser were placed under nature protection as geotopes and mining stopped and the areas renatured as far as possible.

history

Dargitz

Dargitz was not mentioned in writing until the 15th century. It was a full farming village and a church village. On July 1, 1950 it was incorporated.

Neu-Stolzenburg

Neu-Stolzenburg is a post-war foundation because of the land reform when new farmers were settled there.

Sand jar

Sandkrug was a domain with 2 leasehold farmers, which was converted into free property in 1839.

Schönwalde

Schönwalde was not listed in the Pomeranian documents until the middle of the 14th century. The Swedish matriculation cards from 1696 do not show the place either.

Not until 1790 was there any news, but only that Sandkrug was a lease on the Schönwalde estate. At the time, Schönwalde was known as a state domain with a leasehold and a village.

From 1830 to 1854 the estate was leased to Oberamtmann Wüstenberg.

In the Prussian original table sheet (PUM) from 1835 the small closed street village with 16 buildings is shown. The place was oval in shape with a post windmill at its southwest end.

When the lease of Wüstenberg ended in 1854, the tax authorities ordered a lease auction with a minimum lease of 3,500 thalers. There were 6 applicants, of whom the economist Gustav Hecht from Bartmannshagen near Grimmen was awarded 3,880 Thalers.

At the same time, there were still 4 Büdnereien in Schönwalde, but they had little land available and could not make a living from it. They also had to work as day laborers.

In 1862 Schönwalde had a massive house (manor house), 4 family houses for farm workers and 18 farm buildings, 147 inhabitants in 25 families. A massive brewery was part of the estate. There was a forge and a massive syringe house in the village. The staff of the estate consisted of a governor, a housekeeper, 9 servants and 3 maids. There were still 4 Büdner positions in the village, one of which belonged to the teacher. His school was halfway to Sandkrug. The mill mentioned in 1835 no longer existed.

In 1871 Schönwalde had 13 houses with 28 households and 152 inhabitants, in 1867 there were still 142. All were members of the Protestant denomination.

In 1880 a redesigned property can be seen in the measuring table sheet (MTB). It's much larger and more compact, but doesn't have a landscaped park. The houses of the farm workers employed there can be seen to the south of the estate. In the somewhat remote village, you can see the Büdnereien and day laborers' cottages.

The list of goods from 1905 registered 9 residential buildings with 19 households and 108 inhabitants. In 1920, according to MTB, these building reductions appear, but otherwise no changes. In 1914, the leaseholder Oberamtmann Rudolf Dreetz was named in the next property register and later a Lohmann (1930s).

In the statistics from 1862, 1871 and 1905, the sometimes very volatile development of buildings and residents is striking.

Schönwalde was affected by the land reform in the Soviet occupation zone , the existing poor peasants received additional land from the expropriated property and several new farmer settlements were set up in the direction of Sandkrug, to the south and to the east. During the GDR era, however, the structure of the village was largely retained, until 1960 all farmers were united in an LPG, an agricultural facility of the LPG was built at the northern exit of the village and this was continued under private law after 1990. The 19th century manor house was used as a school and living space for refugees after 1945. Only a few remains of the Dominalgut remained.

The core area of ​​the district was identical to the district of Ueckermünde , which had existed since 1818, was expanded in 1939 by 32 communities from the former district of Randow and was separated in 1945 by the Oder-Neisse line . The Western Pomerania district was spun off from the Pasewalk district created two years earlier on July 25, 1952 , and after the dissolution of the states it belonged to the newly formed district of Neubrandenburg . On June 12, 1994 the district (again referred to as the district since May 17, 1990) was dissolved. From then until the district reform in 2011 , the area formed the district of Uecker-Randow together with parts of the districts of Pasewalk and Strasburg, which were also dissolved .

Proud castle

A Slavic rampart is located north of Stolzenburg on Lake Darschkow . He is considered to give the place its name and was mentioned in a document in 1295. Ceramic finds allow a date between the 7th century and the 13th century. The Stolzenburg burial ground was examined in the course of the route work on the A20 . On July 1, 1950, Stolzenburg was incorporated.
