Pigeon village

Taubendorf , Dubojce in Lower Sorbian , is a village in the municipality of Schenkendöbern in the Spree-Neisse district in Brandenburg .

history

Taubendorf was first mentioned in a document as Tawbendorf in 1480 . The place belonged to the Electorate of Saxony until 1806 and then to the Kingdom of Saxony , this finally had to cede Niederlausitz to the Kingdom of Prussia after the resolutions of the Congress of Vienna . From 1816 the rural community Taubendorf belonged to the district of Guben in the province of Brandenburg .

After the Second World War , the district of Albertinenaue was reclassified from the neighboring municipality of Pohsen to Taubendorf, as Pohsen came to Poland as a village east of the Lusatian Neisse. Taubendorf was initially in the Soviet occupation zone and from 1949 in the GDR. During the GDR district reform on July 25, 1952, Taubendorf came to the Guben district in the Cottbus district . On February 1, 1974 Taubendorf was incorporated into Groß Gastrose . After reunification , Taubendorf was initially in the district of Guben , which was merged into the new district of Spree-Neisse in 1993. On May 28, 1998, Groß Gastrose was dissolved as a community and its districts were incorporated into Gastrose-Kerkwitz . Since another municipality reform on October 26, 2003 Taubendorf belongs to the municipality of Schenkendöbern.

Open pit

Taubendorf is located on the edge of the Jänschwalde open-cast lignite mine and directly on the border with Poland. Had the original plans for the Jänschwalde Nord opencast mine and plans for new opencast mines on the Polish side been implemented, Taubendorf would have become a peninsula between three opencast mines. However, there is no coal under Taubendorf itself, which is why the village itself was not intended to be demolished. As a protest against these plans, a warning bell was erected, which has been ringing 5 minutes before 6 p.m. every day since June 9, 2013.

The village is already severely affected by dust and lowering of the groundwater level from the existing open-cast mine.
