Stoben is a district of the common Benz on the island of Usedom .

Geography and traffic

Stoben is a village with about 60 inhabitants in the southwest of the Schmollensee . The elongated street village lies along the edge of the slope of the hilly landscape of Usedomer Switzerland between the Richtberg (38 m high) and the Schluchtenberg (41 m high). About one kilometer to the south is the place Benz, to be reached via the county road 37, north is the place Pudagla . The federal road 111 passes in the west.

There is no direct connection to the rail network. The closest stop on the Usedomer Bäderbahn is Schmollensee ( Züssow – Wolgaster Fähre – Swinemünde line ).

history

Stoben was first mentioned in 1254 as "Stobeno". In the document, the dukes Barnim I and Wartislaw III confirm . that the Grobe monastery is swapping the village of Schlatkow in the Gützkow province with the knight Tammo for villages on Usedom, including Stoben. Bishop Hermann from the cathedral chapter of Cammin confirms the same fact in a document. The Slavic name is interpreted as "village on stakes", which is brought about by the location of the place on a now silted bay of the Schmollensee.

Like most of the central part of the island of Usedom, Stoben belonged to the Grobe / Pudagla monastery until it was secularized in 1537. After that, Stoben came into the possession of the sovereign as part of the Pudagla office formed from the monastery lands.

Around 1865 Stoben had 190 inhabitants who lived in 28 houses. There were five cottagers , 19 Büdner and a blacksmith. There was arable farming and cattle breeding, but no fishing.

To the northwest in the direction of Pudagla is the so-called Schäferei Stoben on the federal road 111 , but its place of residence belongs to Pudagla. It is unclear how this living space relates to Stoben. Next to it is the intact post mill, one of the sights in the area. The "Richtberg" north of Stoben is regarded as a ground monument of a gallows mountain, the place of execution of the Pudagla monastery with the high and low jurisdiction granted to it.

Stoben was incorporated into Benz on July 1, 1950.

Even in GDR times, the shape and structure of the place did not change, only on the "Schluchtenberg", half of which belongs to Stoben, was the larger radar system of the NVA (object Pudagla).

In 2004 the place celebrated its 750th anniversary. Today, like all other places on Usedom, Stoben is connected to tourism.
