history

13th to 18th centuries

Trintowe was first mentioned in 1267 as one of several parishes in the Loitz rule. It is therefore likely that a simple wooden church already existed in the village at that time. The first documentary mention of the Trantow estate is from December 1320. Around 1400 the inhabitants built predominantly reddish brick , the church Trantow . Around 1600 there was a free school yard , seven farms and eight camp sites. They were almost completely destroyed in the Thirty Years War and fell desolate . During this time the church became Protestant in the course of the Reformation in the middle of the 16th century. After the war, Trantow became an official village of the Swedes in 1648 ; the peasants now serfs. In the same year a hurricane probably brought the church tower down . It was not to be rebuilt until 1834. The existence of the pastor Nikolaus Bülten is handed down from the year 1691, who kept a church book . His son-in-law had the rectory repaired at the beginning of the 18th century.

19th to 21st century

In 1805 Ludwig Arndt , the father of Ernst Moritz Arndt , took over the domain , only to hand it over to his older brother in 1806. The contract ended in 1825 and led to the liberation of the peasants in Trantow. Nevertheless, they had to serve the farm until the lease expired to use their fields. In the 19th century the place was ravaged several times by fires and cholera . However, the population increased again, as the mining of peat and the trade in stones in the 1890s resulted in a modest economic boom. It led to the fact that the place received self-government from 1891 . The Trantow volunteer fire brigade was founded on February 11, 1926 . The background was that the fire extinguishers had become largely unusable in the course of the First World War . They were able to use a fire station as early as November 1926 and received a motorized syringe in 1931 . Another wave of resettlement took place in the 1930s. After the end of the Second World War a land reform was carried out in Trantow . However, it did not have any far-reaching effects, as mainly small and medium-sized farmers worked in the village. After the founding of the GDR, they were transferred to local farms and later to agricultural production cooperatives . In the course of the district reforms in the GDR , Trantow belonged to the Demmin district from 1953 . In autumn 1957 the LPG Ernst Moritz Arndt of type III was founded; one year later the Vorwärts of type I. They were combined in 1959 to form the common LPG Vorwärts of type III, which merged in 1978 with the LPGs in Passow and Görmin. In the 1960s, the volunteer fire brigade gradually received modern equipment with several vehicles. In the same period, a multi-purpose building was built that served as a district reception center for the Neubrandenburg district until 1986. In 1969 a women's fire fighting group was founded, which a year later was expanded to include a “Young Fire Protection Helpers” working group. After the reunification , the place became part of the Peenetal / Loitz office , which was newly founded in 1994 . The multi-purpose house, which initially served as a post office, community office and kindergarten, stood empty from summer 1994 to 1998. In 1998 members of the cultural association converted it into a clubhouse with a hall and stage. The inauguration took place on December 4, 1998. Since then it has served as a location for a variety of cultural events. In 2001 the Trantow youth fire brigade was founded .
