A good two kilometers southeast of the village of Lübars , still in the district of the same name but already on the military training area, is the 109.2 meter high Thümerberg . This hill is named after the former village of Thümen, which was located on the other side of the nearby district boundary and not far east of here.

The place belongs to the western Fläming plateau , a heather or grassland rich forest landscape of the north German lowlands.

history

The first documentary mention of the place can be found in 1563 in a visitation protocol . Therein the place is listed as veltmarck Thumen and partly also as Thuemen .

Until 1708/1709 the Thymer estate belonged to the royal family. Chief Bailiff Pape . During a stay of the theologian Johann Wilhelm Petersen near Pape in the nearby Riesdorf , he acquired Tofters from him and lived there with his wife, the writer Johanna Eleonora Petersen until his death in 1727.

16 inhabitants lived here in 1782. In 1785 other documents spoke of Thümar and Thümark . In any case, the name should be of Slavic origin. In 1818 there were 24 inhabitants in the place. In 1842, in the meantime belonging to a manor with the name Thümermark and a major von Greiffenberg, which was now eligible for parliament, 27 Protestant residents lived here in four houses.

In 1847 Thümermark was listed in the "Topographical-Statistical Handbook of the Prussian State". As a manor with 4 houses and 30 souls, it belonged to the Jerichow I district in the administrative district of Magdeburg in the province of Saxony.

The settlement was later called Thümen and it was located in the new corridor of the Altengrabow military training area in the Loburg castle district of Gau Morzane in the Jerichow I district.

In the end, the 310 acre free estate Thümermark fell victim to the facility and the construction of the military training area. After it was taken over by the Reich Military Treasury on April 2, 1896, all buildings on the property and the surrounding settlements, except for the park wall with a door inscription from 1877 and the churchyard, were demolished.
