history

Feldsteinkirche Seeben in the village center

The first written mention of Sebene there were 956 when Otto I the pin Quedlinburg gave six villages, including the well-known today Seeben. At this time, the village church, built in the 12th century, formed the entrance to the village of Rundplatz.

Seeben 1840

Today's view of the village was formed after the great fire in the village in April 1863. Due to the sometimes very dense development and the widespread use of thatched roofs at that time, almost the entire village with 12 courtyards burned down. In the following years, the place was rebuilt but given up the characteristics of a round village.

In the Landbuch der Mark Brandenburg of 1375 the village is listed as Seben .

On September 14, 1569, Christoph and Antonius Wustrow enfeoff Dietrich Brewitz from Bockhorn near Salzwedel with the village of Seeben, on November 11, 1839 this ends for good and all taxes and work are waived for the villagers in return for a one-off payment. At that time, the Seebener villagers earned their livelihood not only from agriculture, but also from trading timber, cutting and selling peat and also making linen.

In 1903 the Seeben volunteer fire brigade was founded.

Towards the end of the Second World War , parts of the 47th Infantry Battalion and 10th Tank Battalion of the Fifth Armored Division of the US Army from Salzwedel marched into Seeben on April 21, 1945 . Before that, there were some skirmishes with German soldiers in the surrounding forests. Two of the German soldiers who fell in these battles are buried today in a wooded area towards Rockenthin.

In 1956, the year of the 1000th anniversary, around 430 pfennigs and groschen from the period between 1430 and 1512 were discovered by playing children in Seeben. A teacher, who found the coins among the students a few days later, recognized the importance, collected them and handed them over to the Danneil Museum in Salzwedel, where they can be viewed today in an exhibition.

Former border tower near Seeben

From 1961 to 1989, Seeben was part of the restricted area of the GDR due to its location near the border . Former border installations , such as the border fence and border tower , have been preserved. These relics of the Cold War and the separation of Germany are a destination for bicycle tourists and nature lovers.

prehistory

A flint dagger from the early Bronze Age was found in the Cheiner peat bog east of Seeben in the 19th century .

Say

In the legend about the origins of the village of Seeben , which Alfred Pohlmann handed down in 1901, there is an account of the giant Jan Kahl and his wife named Seba . The giant was in an argument with the Margrave of Salzwedel, who then had his wife kidnapped. The giant later managed to free his wife. But she died shortly afterwards. That was where the church is now. The giant forced some of his entourage to settle there. He named the village after his wife. Jan Kahl was buried in Seebenau wood. His grave was planted with oak trees, one on his head, two on his arms and two on his feet.

Discussion of the first mention

The historian Johannes Schultze explained in 1964 the different allocation of the six villages in the marca lipani in the deed of 956. He wrote: "The villages in the Gau Osterwalde were localized in the surroundings of Salzwedel without the views in the identification agreeing." are:

Incorporations

When Seebenau was incorporated into Salzwedel on January 1, 2010, the Seeben district became part of the town of Salzwedel and at the same time became part of the newly created Seebenau village.
