map

Schwedeneck is a municipality in the Rendsburg-Eckernförde district in Schleswig-Holstein . It is located on the Danish Wohld peninsula and includes the localities and districts of Birkenmoor, Dänisch-Nienhof, Eckernholm, Elisendorf, Grönwohld, Haschendorf, Hohenhain, Jellenbek, Krusendorf, Kuhholzberg (partially), Sprenge, Stohl and Surendorf.

Geography and traffic

Schwedeneck's borders run 6 km north of the state capital Kiel and about 15 km east of the former district town of Eckernförde on the Eckernförde Bay of the Baltic Sea . In the municipality is the federal highway 503 coming from Kiel , called Bäderstraße , whose extension along the coastline leads from here as L 285 towards Eckernförde. Surendorf lies at the mouth of the Laßbek.

Local public transport exists with bus lines to Kiel, Gettorf and Eckernförde, due to the predominant use of schoolchildren concentrated on the relevant times.

The Gettorf – Stohl railway line has been closed .

history

Numerous large stone graves , the so-called giant beds, the age of which is dated to over 4,000 years, indicate an early historical settlement ( large stone graves near Birkenmoor , e.g. the long beds near Birkenmoor , the dolmen near Birkenmoor , the dolmen near Kuhholzberg ).

In today's municipality, the first inhabitants probably settled on the coast. The first church was built at the mouth of the Jellenbek stream in the town of the same name. This place was abandoned because of coastal erosion around 1650.

Legend has it that the name Schwedeneck derives from a Swedish cemetery in the Danish-Nienhof district, which was created after Swedish troops invaded Schleswig, which was then still Danish, while Denmark and Sweden fought for supremacy in Northern Europe in the Northern War from 1700. According to another explanation, cattle from Gut Dänisch-Nienhof who died of foot and mouth disease in 1749 were buried here, so that the area was given the name "Karkhoff" (churchyard, grave site). Since everything negative was associated with the Swedes at the time, the name Schwedeneck slowly established itself among the population, initially referring to the tree known today as the Stiftseiche (oak means Eek in Low German ).

In 1889 the Hohenhain estate was formed, which included the Danish-Nienhof and Hohenhain estates. The head of this estate district was the landowner Hildebrandt zu Dänisch-Nienhof.

1900 is mentioned as the owner of Dänisch-Nienhof von Hildebrandt and as the owner of Hohenhain von Langendorff.

In 1928 the community of Schwedeneck was formed from the disbanded manor districts of Birkenmoor, Dänisch-Nienhof, Grönwohld and Hohenhain. The community became an independent district in 1930 . After the administrative districts were dissolved in 1948, Schwedeneck and Noer formed the office of Schwedeneck, which was dissolved in 1970. Since then, the community has been part of the Dänischenhagen office.

Churches

A church (St. Catharina am Jellenbek Church ) in today's parish was first mentioned in 1319. The approximately 10 × 15 m measuring early Gothic brick building with a box choir stood in the fishing village of Jellenbek above the stream that flows east of the current holiday village of Jellenbek. The St. Katharinenkirche was consecrated to St. Catherine . The tower, built in the 16th century, served seafarers as a landmark . After the fishing village had to be abandoned around 1650, the church stood lonely. Finally the steep bank moved closer and closer to the dilapidated church. It was therefore decided to build a new building further inland. When the baroque Dreifaltigkeitskirche zu Krusendorf with the onion dome was completed in 1737 , the old church was demolished. The remains directly at the edge of the demolition have been excavated by archaeologists from Christian Albrechts University in Kiel since the summer of 2010 . In the summer of 2012, burials at the altar were recorded.

Only a few items of equipment, such as the Lord's Supper and a baptismal bowl, were transferred to the new church, while the altar and baptismal font were made for the new church. A new settlement, Krusendorf, formed around the church. In 1836 the church received a Marcussen organ .

School and charity in Danish-Nienhof

The monastery oak on the monastery grounds

In 1658 Bendix Blome was the owner of the Danish Nienhof estate. He was on his way back from Copenhagen across the frozen Baltic Sea when he broke into the ice near Aschau. He was saved and was very grateful for it. The Polack War raged until 1660, and the landowners were still heavily burdened with taxes in the following years.

In 1669, out of gratitude, Blome built a monastery for the elderly and poor from his estates next to his farm yard . Blome put out 6,000 Reichsthal foundation money, which had to be borne in equal parts by the Danish-Nienhof, Kaltenhof and Birkenmoor estates . All expenses of the foundation should be met from the interest of the foundation money. The pen was designed for nine residents. Blome appointed the pastors of the churches of Gettorf , Dänischenhagen and Jellenbek as inspectors, who carried out an audit every quarter.

In 1761 the buildings were renovated and the school was housed in its own (fourth) building. In 1829 the use of the building had to be discontinued due to its continuing deterioration. The foundation was closed until 1860 due to lack of funds.

In 1833 the new schoolhouse was built in a cost sharing between the foundation and the estate, which is still standing today and has been used as a kindergarten since the Nienhofer School was incorporated in Surendorf in 1974. In 1860, the foundation's capital had generated sufficient interest that with additional money raised in a raffle among the population, a new monastery building with a chapel on the upper floor could be built, built and planned for nine residents. A sandstone plaque was embedded in the front of the building, which indicates the purpose of the foundation.

In 1928 the estate was dissolved and the political municipality of Schwedeneck took over the foundation, but dissolved it in 1932, as the foundation capital had lost so much of its value due to monetary changes and inflation that the foundation could no longer be financed from interest. Poor people continued to live in the house, and the community also used the rooms as emergency accommodation. In 1988 the building was extensively renovated. The chapel is still intact today and is used for occasional services by the Evangelical Lutheran parish of Krusendorf.

The former school building and the former monastery building are now both on the way to school in Dänisch-Nienhof.
