Location of Thalberg in Bad Liebenwerda

Thalberg is a district of the city of Bad Liebenwerda in the Elbe-Elster district in Brandenburg and is located about six kilometers northeast of the city in the Niederlausitzer Heidelandschaft nature park .

Until 1993 Thalberg was an independent municipality in the Bad Liebenwerda district . The officially designated living space Knissen belongs to Thalberg .

history

The first written mention of Thalberg is from the year 1235. Thalberg probably belonged to Harigsburg near Zeischa at that time . Knissen is mentioned in 1243 as daz dorff knuessyn .

Until the Reformation , the pilgrimage route (Pilarum), which ran between Knissen and Theisa , had a special meaning. On it, the pilgrims from Brandenburg to Liebenwerda to the chapel of the Holy Cross moved . After 1980, the section of the pilgrimage route between the former Goldfisch restaurant in Knissen (last used as part of the Elsterwerda doll factory, now a workshop) and Thalberger Schulstrasse was plowed under.

Maasdorf ponds

Around 1530 resulted from forced labor , the Maas Teiche (Big Pond, Little Pond, Pfuhl pond). They are still used today for fish farming.

Thalberg later fell victim to the power struggles between the supporters of the Dobrilugk monastery on the one hand and the Ileburgers with their supporters on the other and had been in desolation since the Thirty Years' War at the latest , in which the places like Theisa were looted and burned down .

In 1785 Thalberg was repopulated as a colony from Theisa, but apart from the actual village location, it no longer had its own field. The founder of the place was the judicial officer Schulze from Liebenwerda, who had 16 houses built from his manor in Theisa and settled over 40 families in desolate places. In 1787 the ponds were leased to Maasdorf for nine years, in 1796 they were sold privately for the first time and later named Mittelhäuser Teiche after an owner . In 1835 Thalberg owned 34 houses with 215 inhabitants and 19 cattle, 27 goats and 6 pigs. From 1875 Knissen belonged to Maasdorf .

In 1921 the sports club Wacker 21 was founded . In 1929 the Thalberger war memorial was inaugurated. It was not until 1936 that Thalberg was given a municipal area again with the assignment of Knissen and its fields and became an independent municipality.

In the First World War 10 men from Thalberg and 17 men from Knissen died, in the Second World War 27 people from both districts were killed.

In 1952 the LPG Type 1 was founded. From 1960 to 1961 the house of culture and the municipal office were built. In 1963 the school and sports hall were built and inaugurated.

On December 6, 1993 Thalberg was incorporated into the city of Bad Liebenwerda.

In 2005 the Thalberger bell tower was inaugurated. In 2006 the school (most recently secondary school) was closed, and its buildings have been empty since then with no foreseeable solution.

Celebrations and events

The annual highlight is the Thalberger horse and farmer's market that takes place in August. A first series was held from 1984 to 1987. After 1987 the authorities did not allow the series of events to be continued without publicly giving reasons. A new edition was only possible after the end of the GDR. Since the turn of the millennium, the horse and farmer's market has been confronted with an ever increasing decline in the interest of exhibitors and visitors.
