geography

The Wöllmerstift, a courtyard in the Wische , is about 1 kilometer east of Wendemark and 3 kilometers west of the city of Werben (Elbe) on the Flurgraben Wöllmerstift. In the north of the village lies the Middle Elbe Biosphere Reserve and the Aland-Elbe-Niederung nature reserve .

history

The historian Peter P. Rohrlach put together from the files in the Saxony-Anhalt State Archives in Magdeburg: The Wöllmerstift, known as Freihof No. 24 in 1945 , belonged to Velde until 1329. He came to the Arendsee Monastery in 1329 over the tithe of a hoof , belonged to the Arendsee Monastery in 1572 and since 1540 to the Arendsee Office with 2 farms. From 1596 to 1650 the place was owned by von Rindtorf, after 1650 to 1732 by Peter Barfels and Erben. It came to the Engel family from 1732 to 1738/39, and from 1739 to 1750 to Pastor Löwe.

In 1750, Nikolaus Falcke bought the former Rindtorffschen Meierhof. In May 1841, King Friedrich Wilhelm IV. Returned to the courtyard on a tour. Therefore the homestead was later called Königs-Falckenhof . A memorial plaque was placed on an oak tree in front of the homestead. From 1858 the widow Charlotte Wilhemine Falcke, née Müller, ran the farm very successfully.

In 1863 she left the main farm to her inspector Wöllmer on very favorable terms. The Falckische Schulstiftung existed from 1873 and the Friedrich-Clara-Wöllmerstiftung from 1906 to 1950. The latter was brought into being by a decree of the free estate owner Friedrich Wöllmer, who died in 1901. At that time the mayor of Wendemark, the local chaplain and the head of the district were on the foundation's board of directors. The purpose of the foundation was "to provide shelter for sick people of both sexes who live in needy conditions". A house was built for this purpose in front of the entrance to the courtyard, which also included a nurses' station with a deaconess .

Rorhlach writes that the farm was expropriated in 1945. According to the deed, the expropriation of the Wöllmerstift did not take place until April 17, 1950, i.e. after the land reform was completed on October 7, 1949. Therefore, the then municipality of Wendemark applied for a return transfer in the 1990s. But the application was rejected by the Treuhandanstalt .

The courtyard is not labeled on older maps. On the digital map Top50 from 2003 the place is wrongly called Wolmirstift and in the printed place directories from 2008 and 2013 it is listed as Wöllmerstift .

Culture and sights
