Memorial stone for the devastated Strauss village

Straussdorf , Tšuckojce in Lower Sorbian , was a place in Lower Lusatia , northwest of Spremberg, in what was then the Spremberg district of the GDR. It was devastated in 1988 and 90 people were relocated. The former location and demarcation are now predominantly part of the urban demarcation of Spremberg ( Spree-Neisse district , Brandenburg).

Geographical location

Straussdorf was about eight kilometers as the crow flies northwest of the center of Spremberg and almost four kilometers southwest of Groß Döbbern . Until 1815 Straussdorf was an exclave of the Cottbus district in Lower Lusatia in Saxony. The district bordered Rehnsdorf in the north, Klein Buckow in the east, Radeweise in the south, and Papproth in the south-west and west . The town center was 113  m above sea level. NHN . The demarcation had a pronounced morphology. The lowest point was a river on the eastern edge of the district at 105 meters, the highest point a mountain southwest of the town center at 151 meters. Straussdorf could be reached via small streets from Papproth, Rehnsdorf, Klein Buckow and Radeweise.

history

Straussdorf was first mentioned in 1461. In 1495 the name Strausdorff was given again. The name is of German origin, from a personal name Strauss , i.e. the village of an Strauss . This personal name is derived from mnd. Strauss = dispute, battle, also tufts or ostriches (noble family the ostriches). In terms of its arrangement, Straussdorf was a typical round with predominantly agricultural characteristics. The manor was outside and southwest of the Rundling.

Ownership history

On May 18, 1461, the Brandenburg margrave and elector Friedrich II awarded his dear and loyal mill master Caspar Strupcz zu Cottbus the wealth of unspecified goods in Straussdorf and half of the farm in Cottbus, which was formerly owned by Napel von Wildenstein and the At the time the certificate was issued, his widow was still a treasure trove. The slope meant that he should (and probably received) the goods after the death of the owner, or in this case the widow of Napel von Wildenstein.

On March 12, 1495, Hannsen, Cristoff, Ern Jorgen (Herr Georg, a clergyman), Heinrichen, Wenzell and Siuert von Reichenbach zu Jessen were enfeoffed by the Brandenburg Elector Johann Cicero with the village of Jessen and seven Hüfner in the village of Straussdorf, as they did the vonn old and possessed , d. This means that her father probably already owned the village of Jessen and was entitled to the taxes of the seven Huefers in Straussdorf. After Gerhard Krüger (1939) and, following him, Götz Freiherr von Houwald , Straussdorf was owned by the von Muschwitz auf Wintdorf family as early as 1563 .

At this time Kaspar von Muschwitz, the son of Georg von Muschwitz, was sitting in Wintdorf, and in 1575 he was also known to be Straussdorf's head. Kaspar von Muschwitz was married to Barbara von Pannwitz from the Klein Oßnig family , daughter of Wolf von Pannwitz and Sibylle Maria von Schönfeldt. They had three children: 1. Mary, who was married to Hans Gersdorf on Kittlitz, the second a daughter who was married with one of Zabeltitz on Illmersdorf and third wolf, with Sibylle von Köckritz made by Fritzen (probably sprayed meant ) was married, and inherited Wintdorf and Straussdorf. After taking office, he swore to the Brandenburg Elector Johann Georg the oath of feud. Kaspar was still alive in 1580. In 1593 his son Wolf von Muschwitz held Wintdorf and Straussdorf; Kaspar must have died in the period 1580–93.

In 1593 Wolf (Nickel) von Muschwitz auf Wintdorf gave Dietrich von Flanß auf Ressen a loan of 3,000 thalers; he had to pawn him Ressen for it. Presumably Dietrich von Flanß could not repay the loan and in 1600 Wolf von Muschwitz took over the Ressen manor. In 1605 he gave the Nickel von Kottwitz on blade a loan of 1,500 thalers. Wolf (Nickel) von Muschwitz was married to Sibylle von Köckritz. Their children were: Caspar, Job, Georg and Siegmund and their daughter Sibylla (later married to Siegmund von Zabeltitz on Klein Döbbern ). Wolf (Nickel) von Muschwitz auf Wintdorf died in 1623. The cousin Wolf, the son Christoph von Muschwitz auf Wurschen and Wuischke, also died before September 1623. On September 12, 1623 Sibylle, born von Köckritz, while Wolffens von Muschwitz zu Wentorff left Wittib there, instead of their underage sons Caspar, Job, Georg and Siegmunden's brothers von Muschwicz, the fiefs over all from their cousin Wolff von Muschwitz to Wurschen and Wuisicke to them in the Oberamt. The son Caspar died early (before 1629), he no longer appears in later documents. Job (Job) inherited Ressen and Waltersdorf , Georg Wintdorf , half of Allmosen and Straussdorf, and Siegmund Wurschen and Wuischke in Upper Lusatia . In addition, Wintdorf Wolf von Muschwitz had four daughters: Sibylle, married to Siegmund von Zabeltitz from Klein Döbbern, Eva, married to Hans von Streumen from Laubsdorf , Anna, married to Kaspar Ernst von Zabeltitz from Hänchen , and Brigitte, married to Nickel von Löben on Geisendorf . When the fiefs were reassigned and the fief silk was deposited on the occasion of the accession of the Brandenburg Elector Friedrich Wilhelm in 1644, Jürge / Georg and Siegmund, Wolf's blessed sons, were to receive their fiefs. While Georg was present, Siegmund had not come. Job auf Ressen and Waltersdorf was shot by Swedish soldiers in 1641.

Georg von Muschwitz, who had received Wintdorf, half of Allmosen and Straussdorf, was married to Marianne von Löben. The couple had the sons Wolf Nickel, Georg Ernst and Hans Kaspar and the daughters Marianne and Marie Elisabeth. In 1652 Georg von Muschwitz is explicitly named as the owner of Straussdorf. He was involved in several legal disputes with Christoph von Pannwitz auf Kathlow and the brothers Hans and Christoph von Kottwitz in Neuhausen / Spree and Groß Oßnig , as well as with Siegmund von Bomsdorf on Weißagk , which dragged on for many years, e.g. In some cases even after his death. Georg von Muschwitz died in April 1658. On April 29, 1658, Governor Georg Abraham von Grünberg (1603–1672) of the Cottbus district asked the widow to name guardians for her three sons who were still underage. On October 18, 1658, the three brothers, who were still under age, assumed their fiefdoms and received deferred feudal payments.

On November 29, 1663 there was a comparison of inheritance between the brothers Wolf Nickel, Georg Ernst and Hans Kaspar von Muschwitz on Wintdorf with the result that the Wintdorf estate, half of the village of Allmosen, two gardeners from Radensdorf, the Koselmühle, the gardeners, Büdner and the other subjects from Leuthen who belonged to Wintdorf, as well as the meadow at Dissen, were given to the wolf Nickel for 8,000 thalers. Her mother's father's estate in Straussdorf was given to her as a residence for life (1663).

But already on December 23, 1663 the three brothers Wolf Nickel, Georg Ernst and Hans Kaspar von Muschwitz sold Straussdorf with six whole and two half Hüfner and three Büdner for 2,300 thalers to Antonius Seifried von Lawaldt. Either her mother died just a few days after the hereditary settlement, or she renounced Straussdorf; but it no longer appears in the documents. On April 29, 1664 Antonius Seifried received from Lawaldt the enfeoffment with Straussdorf. He was the brother-in-law of the three von Muschwitz brothers, Antonius von Lawaldt was married to their sister Marianne. The three Muschwitz brothers, however, kept all hands on Straussdorf. Shortly after the sale, Johann Andreae, the pastor of Drebkau, sued the buyer and the previous owner because of the backward tithes from Straussdorf. In 1692 Marianne von Lawaldt was born. von Muschwitz died. An inheritance dispute arose over this between Antonius von Lawald, his sisters Marianne and Elisabeth on the one hand, and the four siblings Wolf Nickel, Hans Caspar, Georg Ernst von Muschwitz and their sister Anna Margarethe von Schütze born. Muschwitz on the other hand. Antonius von Lawald died without a physical heir and the Straussdorf estate fell back to the three von Muschwitz brothers who were enfeoffed.

On June 2, 1671 there was a renewed comparison of inheritance, this time among all of Muschwitz's siblings: Wolf Nickel, Georg Ernst, Hans Kaspar, Marianne and Marie Elisabeth von Muschwitz, children and heirs of Georg von Muschwitz and Mariannes von Löben auf Wintdorf, for the purpose of determining the equipment of the sisters which was not taken into account in the inheritance comparison concluded between the brothers in 1663. Georg Ernst acquired the village of Kemmen in 1684 , and Hans Caspar the village of Gahlen . Georg Ernst died in 1692, leaving behind an underage boy named Wolf Nickel. Hans Caspar auf Gahlen died on June 15, 1712, leaving six sons.

Wolf Nickel auf Wintdorf was married to Anna Sophia von Löben. It was their second marriage; The three step-sons Jakob Heinrich, Hans Caspar and Wolf Ernst came from the first marriage with Hans Caspar von Muschwitz on Leuthen and Petershain. H. the marriage with Anna Sophie von Loeben was also the second marriage of Hans Caspar von Muschwitz in Leuthen (first marriage with Barbara von Pannwitz from the Klein Oßnig family, the mother of the above three step-sons). Wolf Nickel and Anna Sophie had two sons, Hans Caspar and Friedrich Wilhelm, as well as three daughters Marie Elisabeth (married to Georg Jobst von Schönfeldt auf Guhrow ), Eva Marianne (married to Friedrich Wilhelm von Pannwitz) and Anna Margarethe, married von Schütze. Wolf Nicol von Muschwitz was a contentious, even contentious man, because he was involved in numerous legal disputes. He also appears to have been very quick-tempered and easily irritable. In 1663 he had killed his boy in emotion. According to the judgment of the Faculty of Law at the University of Frankfurt, Wolf Nickel von Muschwitz auf Wintdorf had to pay a fine of 800 thalers for not having demonstrated intent. He had a long argument with the miller at Koselmühle, who was supposed to keep a hunting dog for him. There were also border disputes and disputes over the rights of use of an alder wood. He also had border disputes with Kaspar Siegmund from the Saxon village of Koschendorf . and with Siegmund von Köckritz on Laubst. There was also trouble with relatives, for example with Kaspar Siegmund von Muschwitz on Waltersdorf. In 1694 Anna Sophie von Loeben was already dead. At Midsummer 1696 Wolf Nickel had bought half of Greifenhain as well as four farmers and two Büdner in Domsdorf (the so-called Greifenhainsche part). Wolf Nickel von Muschwitz died on January 18, 1701 (Houwald: December 18, 1701, will of March 6, 1701). The tombstone is described in the Cottbus art monuments from 1938 as still there. The comparison of the inheritance of the von Muschwitz siblings dates from March 1702. Friedrich Wilhelm was to receive Wintdorf and half of Allmosen in return for a payment of 3,000 thalers to his brother Hans Caspar. If he wanted to take over Straussdorf too, he would have to pay Hans Caspar an additional 600 thalers. On December 12, 1713, Friedrich Wilhelm von Muschwitz received a certificate stating that he had taken the feudal oath. Friedrich Wilhelm died on December 2, 1721 without male descendants.

His property therefore fell to his nephew Georg Nicol, son of Hans Caspar. He was with Anna Luise geb. Maltzin married. But Georg Nicol died very early on July 31, 1726. He left behind his widow and an underage son, Caspar Heinrich. Heinrich Wilhelm von Maltitz auf Tauche became guardian. In 1733 the tenant Martin Jenichen managed Kaspar Heinrich's property. Kaspar Heinrich also died early and without a physical heir. In 1747 the estate was sold. Günter Sigismund von Bomsdorf acquired Straussdorf for 6,550 thalers. In 1753 he was granted the high hunt in the area of ​​his property, and he received permission to build a windmill.

In 1785 his seven children sold the Straussdorf estate to the Knighthood Councilor Friedrich Ehrenreich von Muschwitz. He was the son of Kaspar Heinrich von Muschwitz on Petershain, Geisendorf and Klein Görigk and his second wife Henriette Charlotte von Preuss. He not only owned Petershain, Geisendorf and Klein Görigk, but also Raakow, part of Domsdorf and Kunersdorf. later district administrator of the Cottbus district.

In 1793 he sold Straussdorf and a 20 acre meadow to Günter Anton von Weißenfels. In 1807, Straussdorf was acquired by Charlotte Johanna Ulrike von Schönfeldt for 21,000 thalers. She was married to the state elder Johann Heinrich Ernst von Schönfeldt at Werben, Neuhaus and Mittweide . In 1818 Straussdorf was founded by Dr. August Theodor Burschner acquired. He was married to Anna Dorothea Salzmann from Halle. He bequeathed Straussdorf to their son Wilhelm Burscher (1812–1876). He was adopted by the Royal Prussian Major Ernst Friedrich August von Saher and on May 29, 1847 raised to the nobility as von Saher zum Weißenstein . He was the district administrator of the Buk district , Poznan province , and later the district administrator of the Spremberg district . It was under him that the feudal burdens and the separation took place. He was married to Margarethe Elisabeth Emilie Schmidt. The couple had four children, two sons and two daughters. The older son Eugen died as a lieutenant on December 2, 1870 in the Franco-Prussian War near Champigny. The general address book of the manors and landowners in the German Empire from 1879 indicates the widowed Ms. von Saher as the owner. At that time the estate had a total size of 275.35 hectares, of which 106.82 hectares were arable, 10.81 hectares were meadows, 18.50 hectares were Hutung, 137.42 hectares were forest and 1.8 hectares were water. The net income from property tax was 1,501.35 marks. The Handbook of land ownership in the German Empire from 1885 called Richard Burschner of Saher for White Stone, the son of the previous owner as the owner of the manor in Straußdorf. The size of the property is now given as 294 hectares, of which 109 hectares are arable, 11 hectares meadow, 19 hectares are Hutung, 145 hectares of forest, 7 hectares of land and 3 hectares of water. Richard Burscher von Saher zum Weißenstein was married to Franziska Lange von Drebkau. The couple had five sons, three of which in the First World War fell.

Niekammer's goods address book for the province of Brandenburg from 1914 gives a total size of 300 hectares, with 125 hectares of arable land, 15 hectares of meadows, 157.5 hectares of forest and 2.5 hectares of water. There were 18 horses and 35 cattle on the farm, including 30 cows and 38 pigs. Richard Burscher Sacher von Weißenstein had leased the property to Johannes Schmidt. In 1919 Richard's son, Hansen Burscher von Saher zum Weißenstein, took over the Straussdorf manor. He had the business run by an Inspector H. Roese. There were 17 horses on the farm, including 5 broodmares and a breeding stallion, 51 cattle, including 25 cows, a breeding bull and 7 draft oxen, and 17 pigs, including 6 breeding sows. In 1926 Inspector Hugo Böhm headed the manor. Hansen Burscher von Saher zum Weißenstein was expelled in 1945 and expropriated in the land reform of 1946.

Village history

Around 1500 five Hüfner or hoof farmers are mentioned. In 1635 13 farmer's hooves are mentioned, four hooves were desolate. Two Büdner lived in the village. The number of farmers is not given. The Thirty Years War hit the place very hard. In 1652 all eight farms with 11 hooves were desolate. A farmer lived on his farm, had only one head of cattle and had not sown anything. A linen weaver sat in one farmhouse, a Büdner in another. A tailor sat on the fore with 3½ hooves, but he had not sown anything. After all, he had two head of cattle. In 1718/19 the manor had taken seven farmers' hooves to the manor, which did not include any knight hooves. What remained were six farmer's hooves, which were cultivated by five farmers, and a third hoof of a Kossaten, which was driven around by one (of two) Büdners in the village. The field was sown annually. In 1763 there was still a farmer, the other residents were called Kossaten and Büdner (four Kossaten and four Büdner). In 1784 there were 15 fire places (houses) and 88 inhabitants in the village . Bratring, on the other hand, gives six whole farmers , two Kossäts, one Büdner and five residents. The indication of 19⅓ hooves on the field mark is likely to be incorrect. A brickyard and a windmill existed on the field mark and belonging to the estate. The forest consisted of 200 acres of wood. There were 14 campfire sites with 109 inhabitants in the village . In 1818 the number of residential buildings had risen to 18 and the number of residents to 107. The Straussdorf brickworks and the Straussdorf mill were uninhabited. For 1840 only 16 residential buildings are given for a population of 111. Brickyard and windmill are no longer listed. They are also no longer shown in the original table sheet from 1846. From 1855 to 1858, the Ehrenfried lignite mine was operated in the area. The coal was of good quality , but sales were poor and operating costs were too high. Attempts have also been made to produce tar and mineral oils from the coal. They did not have the desired success and production was discontinued after only three years of operation. In 1862 a mining cooperative made up of Cottbus companies resumed operations under the name Prinzregent . But this company also failed and operations were stopped in 1866. In 1865 17 men worked in the company. There were 18 residential buildings with 132 inhabitants in the village. In 1867 all 120 residents could at least understand Sorbian. At the beginning of the 20th century there were some Straussdorfers in the Spremberg textile factories.

The manor was, so to speak, a small village in itself. In 1900, 69 out of a total of 126 inhabitants belonged or lived in the municipality, 57 inhabitants belonged to the manor district. At that time, the municipality covered only 93 ha, the manor 283 ha.

Straussdorf was captured by Soviet troops from the 1st Ukrainian Front at the beginning of the Battle of Berlin on April 18, 1945 . From September 3, 1945, as part of the land reform, the Straussdorf estate, 292 hectares after all, was divided among  resettlers, small farmers and others. In 1955 the voluntary fire brigade Straussdorf was founded. On July 18, 1958, a type I LPG "Energy" was founded. From January 1, 1960, it was converted to a type III LPG. Another LPG of type I was founded on March 22, 1960 under the name "Heimatscholle".

The advancing opencast mine Welzow Süd and the associated lowering of the groundwater made it necessary to connect Straussdorf to the central drinking water supply in 1979. In the years 1985–1986 all residents of Straussdorf were resettled. The place was considered empty from July 21, 1986. Almost all residents of the time found a new place to stay in Spremberg. Straussdorf then fell victim to the lignite mining of the Welzow-Süd opencast mine . The place was completely devastated .

Today the former location of Straussdorf has been recultivated . In the former town center there is now a memorial stone where the former residents of Straussdorf meet every year.

Local political affiliation

Before 1816, Straussdorf belonged to the Cottbus and Peitz rule, from which the Cottbus District later emerged. The rule of Cottbus fell to the Electorate of Brandenburg in 1445 and 1455. With the district reform of 1816 Straussdorf came to the Spremberg-Hoyerswerda district, which was dissolved again in 1824. From 1824 to 1952 for the district of Spremberg. Even after the district and district reform in 1952, Straussdorf remained in the Spremberg district .

On January 1, 1967, Straussdorf merged with Radeweise to form the new municipality of Radeweise-Straussdorf. On December 31, 1985 Radeweise-Straussdorf was incorporated into the city of Spremberg. In 1988 the site was dredged over by the Welzow-Süd opencast mine.

Church affiliation

Straussdorf had no church and was parish in Steinitz from 1652 to 1930 .

Notable buildings

One of the oldest buildings still preserved after the end of the war in 1945 was the Straussdorf estate.
