history

From the beginning to industrialization

Evangelical Church, built in 1750

The first traces of human settlement in the Velten urban area date from around 1500 BC. BC to 800 BC In 1999, ceramic shards of a vessel (possibly an urn) from the Bronze Age were found during construction work in the Breite Straße in the area of Angers , the church and the secondary school . In the time around 600 BC The remains of a baking oven or kiln that construction workers dug up in the Breite Strasse fell.

The place name Velten is due to a name transfer in the course of the German eastward expansion . Around 1180 farmers from the village of Veltheim am Fallstein ( East Fälisch : Velten ) were settled here. The first documentary mention took place on February 24, 1355 when the Markwart von Lauterbach sold Velten to the knight Copke von Bredow . For the next three centuries, Velten belonged to the von Bredow family . During this time, the spellings Felthim, Feltheim, Feltin, Feltein, Feltzin and Feltym appeared in different documents.

In 1750 the evangelical village church was built on the Anger and in 1863 the rectory north of it .

During the Second Silesian War , Russian soldiers invaded Velten on September 10, 1760, pillaged, committed acts of violence and extorted 100 thalers from the population.

Listed central hall building in the Brandenburg region at Breite Straße 30

Early 19th century was a pure Velten arable village with the typical local Anger , around which twelve Hofwirtschaften clustered. The typical building of this time was the central hallway house made of clay walls and covered with reeds. From 1800 these houses were also built with bricks. In this type of house, the entrance was on the gable side facing the street, on the opposite gable side the cattle sheds were under the same roof.

In 1806, after the Battle of Jena and Auerstedt lost by Prussia , French troops appeared and took the cattle and the church treasury with them. From August 1807 French troops had to be accommodated and stayed until 1812. In 1816 Velten belonged to the newly formed district of Osthavelland .

industrialization

The history of the Velten stove and tile industry began in 1828 . The basis for this was the clay deposits to the west of the village. In 1835, when Velten only had 500 inhabitants, the bricklayer foreman Johann Ackermann had the first stove tile factory built; in 1878 around 22,000 stoves were manufactured in 22 stove tile factories. In 1894 there were already 35 factories with 2,000 employees, and 18 companies were added by 1903, so Velten had 43 kiln factories and ceramic workshops at that time. In 1905 the economic peak was reached with an annual production of 100,000  tiled stoves . With the invention of the white enamel glaze , the Velten tile became a global concept.

In 1895 the Catholic community built the St. Joseph Church in the neo-Romanesque style and a rectory in today's Schulstrasse . In 1890, Velten now had around 7,000 inhabitants, 5,422 belonged to the Protestant and 179 to the Catholic denomination.

School building built in 1885, since then continuously used as a school

The first school building to be built as such was the school built in 1877 at 16 Breiten Straße . The first modern school building was built in 1885 in Viktoriastraße and is still used as a school today. The volunteer fire brigade was established in 1887 with 22 active and six passive members.

Since 1893 Velten was connected to the railway network by the Kremmener Bahn . In 1910/11 the Velten harbor was built and connected to the Havel by the Velten branch canal . Various companies such as iron factories, foundries, earthenware factories, chemical works and sawmills settled in the surrounding industrial area.

During the First World War , Velten was the location of the 5th Squadron of the Train Replacement Department No. 3. Due to a shortage of raw materials and workers, many companies had to stop their production. A total of 280 Velten were killed at the front.

The new town hall , a former power station, was inaugurated on February 5, 1922 . As a result, the municipal administration, which was previously spread over three locations, was under one roof for the first time. In the same year, an old barn was converted into the still existing school in the Breite Straße . On March 16, 1927, the first S-Bahn from Berlin - Stettiner Bahnhof reached the station in scheduled traffic. To maintain the new trains, the Deutsche Reichsbahn had a new railcar hall built. In 1931 the new post office and Poststrasse were built. At the beginning of the 1930s, 15 furnace factories were still producing in the village.

time of the nationalsocialism

In the Reichstag election on March 5, 1933 , the Social Democrats received 1,756 votes, the National Socialists 1,687 and the Communists 1,340 votes. In today's Karl-Liebknecht-Straße, the Adolf Hitler House was inaugurated as the RAD warehouse . Due to the increasing industrialization of the place, the population grew to around 9,000, so that Velten was granted town charter in 1935. At the beginning of the Nazi era, an early concentration camp was set up in the Meisnershof in the Hohenschöpping forest district , which was referred to as the " SA driving school" to cover up the brutal treatment of the political prisoners imprisoned there . In June 1933 it was dissolved - like all early concentration camps - and the prisoners were transferred to the Oranienburg concentration camp . From 1938 there was a training area for the Hermann Göring regiment on Berliner Chaussee on the outskirts of Velten , where parts of the unit were stationed until the end of the war. During the Second World War , men and women from the countries occupied by Germany had to do forced labor : in the companies Felix Deichmann , Borsig , Bergmann and Ikaria . According to the death list, 75 deaths of forced labor rest in the cemetery, with a high proportion from the Soviet Union and Poland as well as Romania , Bulgaria and France . According to other sources, more than 100 foreign dead were buried there at the end of the war. In addition to the forced labor camp, there had been a satellite camp of the Ravensbrück concentration camp since March 1943 with up to 722 women. These were used in the armaments production of Veltener Maschinenbau GmbH Ikaria in Berliner Straße 12b and Havelschmelzwerk GmbH in Berliner Straße 8 and had to assemble aircraft parts, which were then delivered to Heinkel-Werke Oranienburg . On April 23, 1945, the Red Army occupied Velten. In the Second World War 270 Veltener died at the front, and 91 civilians were killed as a result of bombing and fighting until the end of the war.

Post-war period and GDR

On April 27, 1945, a Soviet headquarters was established in the town hall and the new city administration was formed under Max Dietrich. With a few exceptions, Velten was spared destruction caused by the war, but the problems were great. Many refugees from the former German eastern regions were staying in the city. There was hardly any food and school was due to start again on October 1, 1945. Since the Havel bridge in Hennigsdorf was destroyed, there was no continuous rail traffic in the direction of Berlin until July 1946. In Velten, too, as part of the land reform on April 1, 1946, property over 100 hectares was expropriated without compensation and the land redistributed. The largest ceramic factory in the city, the Veltag , was partially dismantled by the Soviet occupying forces before production started up again in October 1945. All companies were expropriated and gradually converted into state- owned companies (VEB).

On August 23, 1947, a serious railway accident occurred near Velten : In a passenger train , gasoline leaked from a canister that was deposited in the luggage rack. It was ignited by a cigarette. The fire spread to a packet of celluloid film and spread quickly. The conductor managed to stop the train. Since there was only one exit in the car in question, the travelers panic. 24 people died, 35 were also injured.

Since the administrative reform in the GDR in 1952, Velten has belonged to the Oranienburg district in the Potsdam district . Until then, the city had belonged to the Osthavelland district. In 1961 Velten had 10,028 inhabitants. After the Wall was built , Velten no longer had a direct rail connection to Berlin. In order to alleviate the housing shortage, apartment blocks were built between Poststrasse / Bahnstrasse / Rosa-Luxemburg-Strasse. Later, from 1984, the new residential area Velten-Süd began to be built using prefabricated panels.

Post-turnaround time

Since the district reform in 1993 , Velten has belonged to the Oberhavel district in the state of Brandenburg, which was re-established in 1990 . On December 31, 2015, 11,766 residents lived here. In addition to the market square in Viktoriastraße, which was built in 1994, new settlements emerged, such as 1994 (Botagsiedlung), 1996 (Am Kuschelhain), 1997 (Velten-Parkstadt) and 1998 (Velten-Grün, Am Heidekrug).

Hohenschöpping residential area

The place, already mentioned in 1701 as Hohen Schepping , was a ship landing stage on the Havel with other uses such as brickworks and later a restaurant for excursions. The Hohenschöpping forester's house was built in 1840. The manor district of Hohenschöpping was dissolved in 1928 and came to the municipality of Velten, a smaller part in the south came to Hohen-Neuendorf. In 1938 the Hohenschöpping station on the Kremmener Bahn was opened to develop locally newly built armaments factories and served by the Berlin S-Bahn in some places every 10 minutes. After 1945 the station was of little importance and was closed in 1998.

Population development

The population development of Velten is closely related to the beginning of industrialization, especially the pottery industry. While only 257 inhabitants lived here around 1772, this number rose to around 500 by 1850. In the meantime, the rise of the pottery industry had begun in 1835, and the number of inhabitants rose accordingly. By 1874 it quintupled to 2,300 and at the beginning of the 20th century 6,924 people lived here. During this time, the originally Brandenburg village was transformed into an industrial town. By 1935, the year the city was granted town charter, the number of inhabitants rose to 9,000. This development is due to the general population development at that time and the further expansion of the Velten industry (now including the metal and chemical industry). Since the population losses in the Second World War were limited and Velten continued to be an industrial location, the population continued to grow moderately and in 1961 reached a total of 10,028 inhabitants. The population growth forecast after the political change in 1990 did not materialize. Compared to the neighboring communities, which in some cases had significant increases in population, the number of Veltens has remained between 11,000 and 12,000 since then. In 2019, a new high was reached with 12,179 inhabitants.
