About one kilometer north of Uchtspringe, the Berlin – Lehrte railway line , the Hanover – Berlin high-speed line and the Bundesstraße 188 run in an east-west direction .

The place is characterized by the Salus Specialist Clinic Uchtspringe and the State Hospital for Forensic Psychiatry Uchtspringe .

Local division

Uchtspringe includes the districts of Uchtspringe, Börgitz (with Wendisch Börgitz and Wilhelmseiche ) and Wilhelmshof .

history

In 1686, a water mill is listed in a certificate, the Modder = Kuhle genand , Mr. Scharden Erben had the mill from the authorities, it was assigned to Wendisch Börgitz.

The chronicle “Modderkuhl, the mill in the ground” by main teacher Adolf Schenck was published in the Uchtspringer Anstaltszeitung in the 1920s. It says: Towards the end of the 17th century there was “a long and continuous dispute” between the then owner of the “Modderkuhle” master Friedrich Knackmußen and the municipality of Börgitze over the possession of a “in the Gohrische Wüsten - Feldmark - Wendisch - In 1745 the miller Knakemuß beats the water mill in Modderkuhl in two courses on the Frau Hauptmann von Stephany zu Käthen Flur. In 1801 the grinding and fulling mill Modderkuhl was assigned to the Neuendorf Domain Office , and in 1818 it belonged to Gut Käthen. With increasing industrialization, the milling industry got into a crisis and the Modderkuhl estate was sold. The watermill stood on today's Uchtebruche in the street "Zum Alten Gut" on the south-eastern outskirts.

In 1892 the future name was changed to Uchtspringe . In 1893, the construction of the "Landes-Heil- und Pflege-Anstalt" began, which was opened in October 1894. In 1928, the rural poor association of the Province of Saxony in Uchtspringe managed a provincial estate with 263 hectares.

With the construction of the high-speed line from Hanover to Berlin in the 1990s, the railway line was led around Uchtspringe to the north in order to rule out mutual interference with the Uchtspringe specialist clinic.

Origin of the place name

Both the old name Modderkuhl and the new name Uchtspringe have the lying in the headwaters of the lamp out (Uchtspringe = place where the lamp ent spring t).

Incorporations

In 1900, 214.4 hectares were separated from the districts of Börgitz and Staats, from which the independent manor district of Uchtspringe was formed.

In 1908, areas were reclassified from the Deetz district to the Uchtspringe manor district, to which the Wilhelmshof Vorwerk belonged, which was subsequently listed in the local registers as Uchtspringe's residential area.

On October 17, 1928, the Uchtspringe manor district was converted into a rural community Uchtspringe with the stipulation that the Wilhelmseiche exclave near Börgitz was merged with the rural community Börgitz.

On 25 July 1952, the community was Uchtspringe the district Gardelegen in the district Stendal reclassified. On January 1, 1957, the municipality of Börgitz from the Stendal district was incorporated into the municipality of Uchtspringe. In 1986, Wilhelmshof was then run as a district of the municipality of Uchtspringe, as was the case in 2008.

Until December 31, 2009, Uchtspringe was an independent municipality with the associated districts of Börgitz and Wilhelmshof.

On June 3, 2009, the municipal council of the municipality of Uchtspringe decided to incorporate it into the city of Stendal through an agreement to change the area. The incorporation agreement was approved by the district as the lower municipal supervisory authority and came into force on January 1, 2010.

After the incorporation of the previously independent municipality of Uchtspringe, Uchtspringe, Börgitz and Wilhelmshof became districts of the city of Stendal. At the same time, the local constitution according to §§ 86 ff. Of the municipality code of Saxony-Anhalt was introduced. Uchtspringe with the districts Uchtspringe, Börgitz and Wilhelmshof became a place of the receiving city of Stendal. This has a local council with nine members including the local mayor.

  • SPD (3 seats for 417 votes)
  • CDU (3 seats for 347 votes)

coat of arms

The coat of arms was approved by the district on April 14, 2008.

Blazon : "Split of silver and blue, in the front half a golden armed black eagle at the gap, behind a silver Aesculapian staff with a golden snake."

The symbolism refers to the founding of the place, which is directly connected to the specialist hospital. Before the mental hospital was founded by the Prussian state, the then little-known community was called Modderkuhl. The “Provincial, Sanatorium and Nursing Institution” Uchtspringe, which was inaugurated in 1894, and the Wilhelmshof district, founded in 1909, only merged in the 20th century with the town of Börgitz, first mentioned in a document in 1270 - a Slavic town foundation - on the occasion of the establishment of today's Uchtspringe. The names Modderkuhl (Low German for "Schlammmulde") and Uchtspringe refer to the source area of ​​the Uchte in the village. The establishment of the clinic at the instigation of the Prussian state government and the clinic itself are expressed in the coat of arms by the black eagle (Prussian eagle) and by the staff of Aesculapius (symbol of the medical and pharmaceutical class from Greek mythology). The colors of Uchtspringes are blue - silver (white).

flag

The flag is blue-white (1: 1) striped (landscape format: stripes running horizontally, lengthwise format: stripes running vertically) and centered with the town's coat of arms.

Culture and sights

  • The Protestant church in Uchtspringe is a neo-Gothic brick building that was built in 1899 as the church of the state sanatorium and nursing home.
  • The local cemetery is in the northeast of the village.
  • The source funnel of the Uchte south of the village and the shepherd forest in the northeast have been a regional natural monument since 1989.

Sage - Seventy Sources

In 1908 the teacher Otto Legel recounted the legend about "The 70 sources of the Uchte". In 1994 Hanns HF Schmidt summarized them in “Seventy Sources”. A thousand years ago, monks on a mission moved north across the then unforested Letzlinger Heide to today's Altmark. They were lost in the heather and found no water in the heather, which was withered by the heat of the summer. So they sat down and prayed for a sign. Suddenly water gushed from the ground under each of the 70 monks and merged into a stream.

traffic

Regular buses run by Regionalverkehr Westsachsen (RVW) under the brand name stendalbus . The station Uchtspringe is located on the railway line Berlin-Lehrte . The old Uchtspringer train station was in the north-west of the town. It was closed around 1997 due to the construction of the new high-speed line from Hanover to Berlin, and a new Uchtspringe stop was built north of the town. This is usually every hour of regional trains of Abellio Rail Central Germany towards Stendal and Wolfsburg with Alstom Coradia LINT operated trains on.

The national highway 188 ( Burgdorf - Wolfsburg - Stendal - Rathenow ) runs one kilometer north of Uchtspringe.
