Etymology and history

Schlunkendorf was first mentioned in a document in 1370, already under its current name. The place was named after a man with the German personal name (surname) Schlunke , Middle Low German Slunk (e) (Schlemmer) to slunk = throat, throat . In 1375 the size of the village comprised a total of 40 Hufen , two of which belonged to the pastor and six to the Lehnschulzen. Furthermore, seven mackers and a jug are handed down. The settlement developed into a lane village with a Kietz . The name Schlunkendorpp has been handed down from 1441 . In 1450 the size was already 44 hooves; the place came to the bailiwick or the office Trebbin until 1540 . In 1472 a resident was named Schulze for the first time . From 1580 the place appears again with its current name Schlunkendorf . The Schulze family is also mentioned again in 1616, as well as two passed farmers, six hüfner and four kötter. In 1624 there were nine coopers, three kötter, a shepherd and a blacksmith who farmed a total of 40 Hufen land. In 1652 there were seven Küfner and four Kötter with a total of eleven people. A windmill was first mentioned in 1745. In 1772 93 people worked in the village; In 1801 there were already 121. In 1837 there were 21 houses; In 1858 a windmill, four public buildings as well as 27 residential and 52 farm buildings were mentioned again. They were spread over 1,574 acres of land, including 8 acres of garden land, 449 acres of arable land, 149 acres of meadow, 820 acres of pasture and 143 acres of forest. In 1826 the place came to the Potsdam office until 1872 , before it was looked after by the office in Saarmund . In the years 1858 there were 173 inhabitants, in 1885 there were already 225 inhabitants. In 1900 Schlunkendorf had 41 houses; the district covers 622 hectares .

coat of arms

Blazon : "In the red-silver split shield, a horseshoe that is open at the top, enclosing a bell with a clapper, everything in mixed up colors."

Reasons for the coat of arms: The bell in the coat of arms stands for tradition and for the connection of the inhabitants of Schlunkendorf to their history. The shape of the bell shown in the coat of arms corresponds to the two bronze bells in the bell tower of the Schlunkendorfer church. The village church of Schlunkendorf is a hall church from the 18th century, which has a horseshoe gallery inside. Today the village is characterized by several riding stables that offer services such as riding lessons and horse keeping. In connection with this, gastronomy also has a high priority. The rural picture shows horses in many places in the meadows and paddocks. The Schlunkendorf district wanted to see itself represented in its coat of arms in a combination of tradition and the present. The tinging in red-silver (white) is based on the color scheme of the state of Brandenburg and the city of Beelitz. The coat of arms was designed by the heraldist Ismet Salahor from Frankfurt and was included in the German local coat of arms at the HEROLD on December 5, 2017 under the number 56BR.
