Thurau is a district of the municipality of Osternienburger Land in the Anhalt-Bitterfeld district .

history

It is believed that Thurau is a Slavic foundation, as the name can be derived from Slavonic. Thurau = village of Tur (asl. Turù = Ur, Auer) Auersdorf.

It is known that knights - especially from Thuringia and Saxony - were enfeoffed with land and people for their military service in the Sorbian country . As a result, these knights became landlords who often named themselves after their new possessions, which had Slavic origins. In 1156, for example, a noble family Thurowe is called, which died out at the end of the 14th or beginning of the 15th century. It is also known that places ending in ow , which later became au , can be assigned to the younger Slav period (see place name ).

In 975 Gero , Archbishop of Cologne , founded a Benedictine monastery in Nienburg an der Saale. In 993 it received the right to mint and various estates in the wider and nearer vicinity, e.g. B. Grimschleben , Weddegast , Scharwek etc. Thurau is also said to have fallen to the monastery at this time.

In 1156 a document named Friedrich and Gottschalk von Thurau as witnesses. In 1166, Emperor Friedrich I handed over the monastery, which had previously been directly subordinate to the Emperor, to the Archbishopric of Magdeburg in exchange for other goods.

Thurowe was first mentioned in a document in 1377, when Prince Johann II von Anhalt-Zerbst sold the village of Trinum , Renten zu Fernsdorf and Thurau for a resale to Dieritz von Schierstedt and Hennig von Simmenstedt . The certificate says:

"We Johannes von Gotsgnaden Fürste zu Anhalt and Grave von Asschanien publicly confess with dissim brite, that we have been present in front of fifty marks Brandeborsches silveres and put our dear dyritze von Schirstete, Hennighe von Czymmenstete the iunghern and iren erebe the village Dryum [. ..] with all right when we had that. Ouch so we have darmite yns lies eyne mark geldes zu Thurowe uff tzwen huven die Bolle has [...] "

Around 1370, Thurau was listed in the interest register and the Magdeburg Dormprospstei were banned from church .

In 1402 Trinum was bought back by "Jurge by God's grace, Prince of Anhalt" (Georg I. von Anhalt-Zerbst) with all accessories, the courts in the field and village, top and bottom, and a mark of money at Turo .

In 1483, Thurau and Locherau were taken over by Prince Waldemar VI. von Anhalt-Dessau awarded to von Schlegel.

In 1594 there was a sale of goods by von Schlegel to von Wuthenau .

In 1602 half of the village belonged to Wuthenau and half to Schlegel.

In 1681 von Wuthenau also bought the other half, so that the manor belonged entirely to those of Wuthenau. Von Wuthenau is also the patron of the church in that he is remembered in church prayer and asked when a new preacher and school teacher is appointed.

Around 1611 and 1628 those of Rabiel in Thurau are said to have been wealthy, from 1637–1732 those of Zehmen , whose property came to the sovereigns.

On July 1, 1950, Thurau was incorporated into Zabitz .
