Location of Taterberg in Saxony-Anhalt

Taterberg is a district of the village of Miesterhorst and the Hanseatic city of Gardelegen in the Altmark district of Salzwedel in Saxony-Anhalt .

geography

The Altmark Taterberg located eight kilometers northeast of Oebisfelde in the lowland area of Drömling in nature reserve ear-Drömling . In the southwest the Ohre flows , in the northeast the Wilhelm Canal flows south to the Ohre.

Taterberg is a Horst in Drömling. It lies at the narrowest point of this 15 by 20 km swamp area. People passing through used to take a break on the Taterberg before they began their arduous journey over the approximately 10-kilometer long Knüppeldamm from the southwest to the northeast “bank” of the Drömling.

history

Heller reports on a Taterberg swamp castle and quotes from the chronicle of Miesterhorst, which was made by the village mayor towards the end of the 19th century: “Inhabitants were also often attacked by Matadors, but they always defended themselves well. In times of need they moved their cattle into the swamp forest or went to the castles, which were sufficiently available. With us, the Taterberg Castle was called under Edler von Dorn, further called Pieplockenburg or also the red castle. "

Today's place was created as a colony in 1787 while the work on draining the Drömling . Wilhelm Zahn writes: Since there was no accommodation for the building officers and they could not always stay outdoors or in emergency huts with their instruments, maps and plans, the commission requested ... the construction of two small houses on the "Tartarberg", it was approved and a house will be completed on July 13th.

In 1789, Tarterberg was the home of senior building officer Heinrich August Riedel, which later became the trench master 's house. In 1804 the property is called Etablissement Taterberg or on the Tatterberge .

Place name

The Taterberg is described by W. Schmidt as a place where gypsies camped. In Low German, Gypsies are called Tatern. The Turkologist Mieste Hotopp-Riecke writes: “That one can deduce from the existence of the toponyms with the component Tater / Tatar / Tartar in the Altmark and from legends from Altmark on the early presence of Tatars in the sense of" members of a Turkic people "in this area must be answered in the negative. "

prehistory

A striking rectangle (about 300 by 500 meters) with rounded corners can be seen on aerial photographs of the place. Members of the Friends of Archeology Association from Lower Saxony initially suspected an old Roman camp at the site. The archaeologist Dr. Peter Glüsing considers Taterberg to be a Frankish-Carolingian fortification of the late eighth century, laid out under Charlemagne on a north-south border between the Franks and the Slavs advancing to the west.

Incorporation

Taterberg was never independent. It has been referred to as a residential area since 1871, and from 1985 also as a district of the Miesterhorst community. After the incorporation of Miesterhorst to Gardelegen on January 1, 2011, Taterberg came as a district to the town of Gardelegen to the newly created village of Miesterhorst.
