Uebigau is a district of the southern Brandenburg town of Uebigau-Wahrenbrück in the Elbe-Elster district on the left side of the Black Elster .

A first castle to secure trade routes and a river crossing existed in the district, which is of Slavic origin, probably as early as around 1000. The place was first mentioned in 1251 in a document as "Vbgowe". Uebigau has had town charter since 1303. In the " Schweinert " nature reserve north of the district there is one of the largest burial mounds in Central Europe from the Bronze Age. Here, after the Battle of Mühlberg in April 1547, the Saxon Elector Johann Friedrich I was captured by troops of Emperor Charles V's army, as a result of which the Schmalkaldic War ended with the Wittenberg surrender .

Since the 1990s the old town of Uebigau has been comprehensively renovated with the help of urban development programs.

history

Early history

Barrows field "Schweinert"

The oldest traces of human settlement in Uebigau were found on the Black Elster in the sixty-hectare forest and nature reserve “Schweinert” , about four kilometers north of the city . They date from the Middle and Late Bronze Age around 1200–800 BC. One of the largest burial mounds in Central Europe from this period is located here. About six hundred and fifty partly be recognized still good barrows are known here and can Lausitz culture are assigned.

Numerous prehistoric and early historical finds have also been found in the old town area of ​​Uebigau and suggest a Germanic or Slavic pre-settlement of the city area.

Uebigau Castle was built

Around 1000, in the area east of the Elbe, which had recently been conquered by the emerging German Empire, there were military clashes with the expanding Polish dukes and kings as well as the resident Slavic rulers. Several castles were newly founded or expanded. These probably also served to protect and control the military and trade routes that run parallel to the Schwarzen Elster, such as the Sugar and Salt Route and the river crossings. In addition to other castles such as Wahrenbrück , Liebenwerda , Würdenhain , Saathain , Elsterwerda and Mückenberg , a castle complex was also built in Uebigau, which is located on a side street of the old Salzstraße and later Niederstraße, which runs from the Lüneburg Heath over the Harz , Eilenburg , Torgau and Doberlug led to Silesia, found.

The approximately 900 square meter complex of a moated castle was located on an artificially raised hill, in the center of which was an approximately 5 meter high residential tower. The location of this castle was probably a still visible elevation in the Uebigau castle park, which was also recorded as a Slavic castle wall in GDR times . A proven moat at the entrance to Uebigau Castle, two castle ponds that still existed until 1950 and several broken fragments from the 14th and 15th centuries suggest this.

First mention, acquisition of town charter and interpretation of the place name

Uebigau was first mentioned in 1251 as "Vbgowe" in a document from the nunnery "Marienthron" (letter from Meissen Margrave Heinrich the Illustrious ), which was moved in 1250 from Torgau near Gera and finally in 1291 to Nimbschen.

Other spellings of the place name were 1251 Vbgowe , Vbegowe , 1285 Ubgowe , 1298 Ubegowe , 1303 in Vbegowe ciuitate , 1350 Ob (e) gow , 1424 Ubbigow , 1441 Obbigaw , 1505 Obigaw , 1555 Ubigau , 1602 Ibigaw , 1607 Ibigaw and 1752 Übigau .

It is possible to interpret the Slavic place name as Uběgov (-a, -o) , meaning possession of Uběg . According to legend, at the time of Margrave Gero (around 900 to 965), the village elder Ubeg outwitted a knight and thus saved the former Slavic village from looting. However, a person with this or a similar name is not available. The derivation from the ancient Slavic word + běgati (to run) is more likely , which is then interpreted as Uběgovo (place where you can go, i.e. a place of refuge).

The first mention of the city as a city in 1303 comes from a document drawn up in Uebigau, which is in the Saxon main state archive in Dresden. In that document Otto von Ileburg and Uebigau (the younger) stated that they had made an exchange with the Langennaundorf parish church. Some of his vassals, such as Cunrado de Tristewitz and Gunthero de Rozstoc, appeared as witnesses.

Early modern age

Uebigau in a cabinet card from 1762 by Isaak Jacob von Petri

In the “Schweinert” forest area north of Uebigau, after the Battle of Mühlberg in April 1547, the Saxon Elector Johann Friedrich I was captured by troops of the army of Emperor Charles V, as a result of which the war ended with the Wittenberg surrender .

The Thirty Years' War brought Uebigau severe devastation . The area between the Elbe and the Schwarzer Elster suffered particularly hard at that time. So that at the end of the war almost every village was affected. After General Götz Uebigau's Croatian horsemen had already partially burned down in 1630, General Banér's Swedish soldiers arrived in the winter of 1636/37, who had taken their winter quarters in Torgau an der Elbe, a few kilometers away, and roamed the entire area down to the smallest corner , plundered, harassed and burned towns. The area did not find peace until 1640 and at the end of the war Uebigau was in ruins. According to tradition, the city burned down seven times between 1612 and 1640 alone.

At the same time, there were always devastating plague epidemics, which also decimated the population. The plague years included 1631 with 200 plague victims and 1637 with 600 people killed. The number of victims from the epidemics in 1638/39 and 1648 is not known.

For a long time after the war, the city suffered from the consequences of that time. So that in 1672 the pastor Hardtmann complained that it was "such a miserable creature that he will probably not see a Heller in 14 days and that with his wife and poor children the number 9 who cackle and just walk." The Uebigau city mill, first mentioned in 1521 , was finally sold to the miller from Postberga for 1,035 thalers in 1712 because of war debts suffered in the Great Northern War in 1706 and 1707 .

The arable town of Uebigau was entitled to the lower courts in the 18th century. The city was surrounded by the wide rivers of the then unregulated Black Elster and could only be reached via two drawbridges at the Münchner and Torgauer Tor. The new trench, built in 1580, encloses large parts of the old town to the present day. Uebigau had already received the right to organize a fair on St. Lukas and on the 1st Sunday of Advent in 1577 and to hold cattle markets on the Fridays and Saturdays beforehand. According to the land register from 1756, the original of which is in the Heimatstube, the city had 129 houses and 116 house owners, 49 of whom were authorized to brew. Among them were 18 linen weavers, 2 rope workers, carpenters, 2 bakers, 5 cooperatives and 8 tailors.

In the period that followed, the city and its residents continued to suffer from wars. During the Seven Years' War , Austrians and Croats plundered Uebigau in 1760 and during the Wars of Liberation the area saw massive troop movements by French and Prussian war groups. At times, the city had to provide accommodation and food for up to 18,000 French people, which meant about 150 men for a citizen of Uebigau.

From the Congress of Vienna to the end of the Second World War

After Uebigau fell from the Kingdom of Saxony to the administrative district of Merseburg of the Prussian province of Saxony as a result of the regulations of the Congress of Vienna in 1815 , the town belonging to the Liebenwerda district had 148 houses and a total of 1252 inhabitants together with the two manors. There were 106 horses, 421 head of cattle, 3 goats and 20 pigs. About 15 kilometers up the river, construction work began in 1852 at Zeischa to regulate the Black Elster. The river got its current bed by 1861, was diked by dams and a large part of the numerous rivers were drained. In 1853 the two Uebigau gatehouses were sold for demolition and in 1874 the church cemetery was closed.

The Uebigau station building around 1904.

At the end of the 19th century, industrialization gradually began in Uebigau. On December 1, 1871, the Falkenberg / Elster railway line that ran past the town was put into operation. Since the Uebigau magistrate did not show any interest, the city only got a bus stop on May 1, 1892. The station building was handed over eleven years later in 1903. In the neighboring Falkenberg a railway cross was built, which in the following years developed into one of the most important traffic hubs in Eastern Germany. Many Uebigau residents found work in the factories and at the train station. And as early as 1929, 199 Uebigauer were employed as railroad workers.

On 23 April 1945 the advancing troops met the Red Army belonging to the 1st Ukrainian Front on Uebigau. On the same day, near the Langennaundorf on the Schwarzen Elster, which was later incorporated, they found a lost train from the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, known as the Lost Train .

Incorporation and formation of the city of Uebigau-Wahrenbrück

On January 1, 1960, Munich was incorporated . Ten years later the community of Bomsdorf was incorporated into Uebigau on March 22, 1970. The municipality of Langennaundorf followed on December 31, 1998.

From 1977 Uebigau formed a community association together with the neighboring town of Falkenberg and nine other communities. From 1992 the city became part of the office of Falkenberg-Uebigau. In a further territorial reform in the state of Brandenburg, the Uebigau population resisted integration into Falkenberg.

On December 31, 2001, the cities of Uebigau and Wahrenbrück were merged with the communities of Drasdo , Bahnsdorf , Neudeck and Wiederau .

Old town renovation

A comprehensive renovation of the old town of Uebigau began in the 1990s. After individual projects such as the renovation of the rectory, the pharmacy and the former brewery were initially funded by state programs from 1993 onwards, the city was included in the "urban redevelopment measures" program in 1995.

The 21.5 hectare redevelopment area "Old Town Ubigau" has been legally binding since August 21, 1998, and in 1999 it was included in the "Urban Monument Protection" program. In addition to historic buildings on the market and in the historic old town, the castle inn, the museum barn and the Uebigau town hall have also been renovated since then. In addition, in the area of ​​the old town of Uebigau, among other things, all bridges of the new grave surrounding the old town were renovated or renewed.

The Uebigau Jewish cemetery

In 1839 the Uebigau Jewish cemetery was laid out in the “Bürgerholz” on Wahrenbrücker Strasse by Jews living in neighboring Wahrenbrück . Presumably they had previously encountered local resistance in the neighboring town. With a small advertisement in the "Liebenwerdaer Kreisblatt" on July 21, 1839, they thanked the Uebigau city council for letting them use the 130 square meter site. Burials are known for July 17, 1839, November 6, 1841, May 18, 1848 and February 27, 1853. A total of eleven burials are documented for the cemetery between 1839 and 1870. As early as 1913, a photo that appeared in the Liebenwerda home calendar of the site, which was later forgotten, shows broken and knocked over gravestones. The graves of the cemetery, which was probably destroyed at the turn of the century, were already barely recognizable in 1964 and nature has now reclaimed the area.

Since the beginning of 2018, the situation has been visible again through fencing of part of the former cemetery area at the level crossing in Uebigau in the direction of Wahrenbrück.

Population development

The population of Uebigau rose steadily due to the increasing industrialization of the region in the middle of the 19th century. In 1875 the population was 1,409. It reached its peak shortly after the Second World War as a result of the influx of displaced people. Then there was a decline in the birth rate and the number of inhabitants in Uebigau fell noticeably. Another noticeable point was the political change in the GDR in 1989, which went hand in hand with an economic upheaval in the entire country and there was a further decline in the population. Between 1989 and 1997 the district lost around 115 inhabitants. Part of the population loss is due to emigration. Due to the incorporation of Langennaundorf in 1998, there was another increase in the number of inhabitants, but this has been falling again in Uebigau since then. The main cause is a higher death rate compared to a lower birth rate.

politics

coat of arms

City Council

Since the merger of the two cities of Uebigau and Wahrenbrück with the communities of Bahnsdorf, Drasdo and Wiederau to form the city of Uebigau-Wahrenbrück in 2001, there has been a joint city council meeting. It is made up of 19 councilors including the mayor.

The district of Uebigau is currently represented by the local mayor Delf Gerlach.

coat of arms

A city seal from the 15th century with the inscription "Sigillum civium Ibbigo" (translated: seal of the citizens of Uebigau) is the oldest verifiable city coat of arms of Uebigau. In the middle there is a tower with a drawbridge, which points to the Uebigau castle. The representation of the castle can also be found in the following versions of the Uebigau town seal and coat of arms, for example 1646, 1885 and 1935.

The city colors of Uebigau are green, white (silver) and red.

Town twinning

Since 1990 there has been a friendship with Bad Driburg in the North Rhine-Westphalian district of Höxter, which has also been maintained by the city of Uebigau-Wahrenbrück , which was newly formed at the end of 2001 . There is an exchange at church and club level, especially the shooting clubs (Bürgererschützengilde) meet regularly.

Culture and sights

Museums

In a half-timbered house with a portal-like door superstructure not far from the Uebigau market square, the town's small home parlor has been housed since 1981 . This building was once the seat of a soap factory . In the exhibition rooms, among other things, exhibits on the arable culture and school history of Uebigau can be seen, which give insights into the former rural customs of the area. In addition, the Heimatstube houses an exhibition of pewter figures by Uebigau engraver and pewter caster Johannes Frauendorf, whose works are well known in European collectors' circles. A restored barn on the property is used for cultural events in the summer months. Behind the barn, a replica of a fortified Bronze Age settlement with a watchtower, storage house and pit house can be viewed.

Not far from the Heimatstube is "Krüger's Zweiradoldtimermuseum". Here are two-wheelers from before 1945, such as an NSU from 1927, a Victoria from the 1930s or a DKW from the 1940s. Some of the exhibits in the small museum are in their original condition. The museum also houses old advertisements from the beginnings to the modern era as well as old brochures and magazines.

Music and regular events

Every year in June there is a shooting festival in Uebigau. Another regular event is the annual sports and foundation festival of the local volunteer fire brigade, which also takes place in June.

A concert series that has now become established is the “Concert Cycle in the Uebigauer Land”. As part of this, musical events take place in all churches in the Protestant parish, such as in Drasdo, Langennaundorf, Uebigau and Wiederau.

Buildings

The approximately 750 year old historical urban structure of the former agricultural town has largely been preserved. The very large rectangular market square with its rare striped pavement, which was laid out in the late Middle Ages, points to the former importance of Uebigau as a trading place. The stripes once served as a marker for setting up the market stalls. On the market there is a water fountain based on the Uebigau city coat of arms and built on the occasion of the 700th anniversary celebration.

The historic old town of Uebigau with its restored half-timbered houses, cobblestone streets and narrow alleys was accepted by the state of Brandenburg in 1995 in the working group "Cities with historic city centers", which aims to identify the historic city centers of Brandenburg "as important objects of cultural and historical identification of people to preserve their homeland ”.

City parish church of St. Nikolai

The church “St. Nikolai ” . In 1251 it was a branch church of the Altbelgern patronage , which was subordinate to the “Marienthron” nunnery in Torgau. In 1298 a people priest was mentioned in a document ("dominus plebanus in Ubegowe"). His name Albertus appears in another document a year later. The church's sacristy was built in the 16th century. In addition, the patron's box was added at this time and the early Gothic eastern oldest part of the church was raised. The pulpit probably dates from 1690. A first organ was mentioned in 1640. The instrument, which has been preserved to the present day, was built in 1895 by the Eilenburg master organ builder Conrad Geißler . The family grave of the Chladni family is on the east wall of the church. One of its best-known members was Ernst Florens Friedrich Chladni , who in the 18th century developed, among other things, modern acoustics and the meteorite theory.

Uebigau Castle

The Uebigau Castle is located in the historic city center of the district. Its current appearance goes back to a 1904 rebuilding in the neo-baroque style, but the architecture also shows elements of Art Nouveau . After the Second World War, the owner at that time, Rittmeister a. D. von Bomhard, expropriated in 1945. A youth hostel has been located in the castle since 1951 . Behind the building there is a two-hectare castle park with a small lake in the form of a landscape park from the 19th century.

On the historical Uebigauer Markt there is a post-distance column renovated in 2003 . The column was first installed on the market in 1730. Originally, however, two distance columns were planned for the city, the planned locations of which in front of the Torgauer Tor and the Münchner Tor were determined by the Uebigau mayor and some councilors on November 17, 1727 and marked with posts. For reasons of cost, however, only a single column was set up. In 1932 only the coat of arms of this column was left and the Uebigauer Beautification Association arranged for it to be placed on a pyramid-shaped base made of brick in a park on Beiersdorfer Straße, where it had been for a long time. In 1985, the post mile column was faithfully reproduced and re-erected on the market square, and the original coat of arms that was preserved was given to the Bad Liebenwerda district museum .

The building of the Uebigau town hall, built in 1829 as a town hall, was acquired in 1853 by the city of Uebigau for 2500 thalers as town hall. Before that, there was a Gothic-style town hall in the middle of the market square, which was completely destroyed by fire at the end of the 17th century.

The briquette factory in the Domsdorf district is called Louise . It is the oldest briquette factory in Europe. From 1882 to November 1991, brown coal briquettes were manufactured here. Some machines are still operated for demonstration purposes. The chimney is 65 m high and forms a landmark in the landscape. Various repair measures have been carried out since 2001.

Monuments

War Memorial First World War

Not far from the “Schweinert” nature reserve, a memorial commemorates the capture of the Saxon Elector Johann Friedrich I after the Battle of Mühlberg during the Schmalkaldic War in April 1547. However, it is not known whether the event took place exactly at the location of the memorial.

The “Croatian grave” between Uebigau and Wahrenbrück reminds of a Croat who was slain by his own people at this point in the Thirty Years' War. He is said to have opposed them when they wanted to plunder a hospital with the elderly and the sick in Uebigau. The Uebigau citizens are said to have finally buried him at the place where he was found.

Immediately next to the Uebigau church is the stele of a war memorial erected in 1922, which is intended to commemorate the 73 Uebigau residents who died in World War I , as well as two residents of Bomsdorf and two from Munich.

Sports

The district of Uebigau has a sports facility with soccer, volleyball and handball courts and a gym. There is a bowling hall in Baderstrasse and a shooting range for the Uebigau rifle club on Wahrenbrücker Strasse.

societies

Uebigau traditionally has a lively club life. While in 1926 clubs such as the gymnastics club, the cycling club “Fahrwohl”, the Uebigau “beautification club” or the “citizens' club” shaped Uebigau's club life, today it is the “Lokomotive Uebigau sports club” founded in 1953, the “Uebigauer Heimatverein” e. V. ”or the 1991 re-established“ Schützengilde 1802 Uebigau ”. There are also other associations that are active in the district and in the city of Uebigau-Wahrenbrück.

Uebigauer legends

In the area around Uebigau there are numerous legends that have survived to the present day.

This is how the “legend of the miraculous Susanna bell” is said to have originated during the Thirty Years' War. She tells of the Susanna bell, which once stood on a tower next to the nave of the church “St. Nikolai ”hung. The bell is said to have developed miraculous powers. It started to ring on its own when the small town was threatened by fire and is said to have even had the power to contain fires. The tower was destroyed in a fire in 1681 and the bell melted in the embers.

Other legends, such as "About the revenge of the Uebigau Aquarius", "The barn koblik" or "The werewolf near Uebigau" tell of goblins , werewolves , will- o'-the-wisps , mermaids and water men .

Economy and Infrastructure

traffic

The Uebigau stop is on the Halle – Cottbus railway line . In addition, the place is affected by the state roads 60 and 662, via which there is a connection to the federal roads 101 at Langennaundorf and 183 in Bönitz or Marxdorf.

Established businesses

In Uebigau there are mainly small, medium-sized craft businesses and a few service companies. In the north of the district there is a 23 hectare industrial area with 170,000 square meters of net construction area.

The "Uebigauer Elektro- und Schalt-Anlagenbau GmbH" (uesa GmbH) with its main plant in Uebigau is currently the largest company in the district and one of the most important employers in the Elbe-Elster district with around 240 employees. Uesa is a supplier for energy supply companies and offers, among other things, energy distribution systems, cable distributors, street lighting cabinets, transformer stations, low and medium voltage switchgear, electrical equipment for machining and processing machines as well as automation and control systems. The company was founded in 1972 when the PGH "Frequency" was transferred to the VEB "Elektro und Schaltanlagenbau Uebigau". With its five branches in Uebigau, Guben , Cottbus and Ruhland , it became a model company in the GDR . Today's GmbH was created on June 1, 1990.

Other companies in the sector based in Uebigau are "EFEN GmbH" with currently around 200 employees across Germany and " Ormazabal Schaltanlagen Uebigau GmbH ". In addition, the traditional Uebigau company "Fleischerei Otto Kalex" has settled in the industrial area, which currently employs 64 people and is thus one of the largest companies in the district.

education

There are first references to a school in Uebigau in documents from the 16th century. The town had a maiden school at that time. A Latin school was probably opened in the first quarter of the 16th century. In 1515 the schoolmaster Burckhard was mentioned by name. A new girls' school was opened in Kirchstrasse in 1822. A new boys' school followed in 1833 in what is now Nordstrasse, which in 1889 was attended by 117 students.

A school was inaugurated for the first time in 1907 on the site of the former Uebigau elementary school in Wahrenbrücker Straße. An extension was made here in 1964. The new building, which is connected to the older parts of the building, was built in 1979. The primary school was closed in 2016, and an association was formed to found a free primary school.

The Uebigau City Library is located on the market and offers library tours, literary events, literary readings and slide lectures in addition to the usual lending options.
