history

Storbeck was built in 1691 by twelve peasant families from Switzerland on the Vorwerk Storbeck of the Altruppin office and today stands almost in the same place as the lost medieval village of the same name. The prehistory researcher Martin Schultze identified four Germanic and two medieval German sites in the area around the village.

Only a few documents exist from the medieval village, so almost nothing is known about them. It was probably founded in the course of the west-east settlement between the years 1000 and 1200 by farmers of Lower Saxony origin and destroyed around 1527 in the Ruppin-Pomeranian feuds. Judging by previous investigations, the medieval one lay across the present-day village along the Molchower Weg. The Altruppin office later set up a smaller administrative area on the desolate area, which then also served as a sheep farm on a larger scale .

By the settlement contract of May 6, 1691, the Vorwerk including the sheep farm was dissolved and the entire usable area, along with the already heavily overgrown parts of the medieval Feldmark, was given to twelve Swiss farmers to build a new village of Storbeck. In addition to their families - no family had fewer than four children - these Swiss farmers belonged to the Evangelical Reformed creed founded by Zwingli . All of them, however, had not left their Swiss mountain home for religious reasons, as was often wrongly claimed, like the Huguenots who came to the march shortly before them in 1685, but solely for economic reasons. They all came from localities in today's cantons of Basel , Bern and Zurich . Compared to their former homeland, they found completely different conditions here. Some of the first families are now extinct, a few descendants now live in other parts of the march. But other genders, also of Swiss origin, have returned.

Storbeck and Frankendorf belonged to the Ruppin rule since the 14th century, to the Ruppin district in the Mark Brandenburg since 1524 and to the Neuruppin district in the GDR district of Potsdam from 1952 . Since 1993 the places have been in the Ostprignitz-Ruppin district of Brandenburg.

On January 10, 2002, the community of Storbeck-Frankendorf was created through a voluntary merger of the previously independent communities of Storbeck and Frankendorf.
