Wahrburg is a town and part of the Hanseatic city of Stendal in the Stendal district in Saxony-Anhalt .

geography

Wahrburg, a street village with a church, lies southwest of the core town of Stendal in the Altmark . The Uchte flows south of the village .

history

Originally the village was laid out in the shape of a horseshoe . The first documentary mention comes from the year 1339 as villam dictam Warburg , when Margrave Ludwig I transferred rights over Wahrburg to citizens of Stendal named Hoger (Hogen, Hoke). In the Landbuch der Mark Brandenburg from 1375 the village Warborch and a mill are listed. It belonged to Barthold Hogen. The Stendal citizen Benedict Calve acquired half of the village in 1466. Wahrburg was a small manor .

Elector Joachim II of Brandenburg (1505–1571) had enfeoffed his chancellor Johann Weinleben († 1558) with an entitlement to half of the village of Wahrburg, which the brothers Andreas and Palm Rynow had as a fief. On November 15, 1547 he enfeoffed his chancellor Johann Weinleben with the entitlement to the other half of the village of Wahrburg. On August 24, 1569, the brothers Johann and Joachim Weinleben zu Berlin sold their father, the Chancellor Johann Weinleben, who had been given by Elector Joachim, to Claus Goldbeck , Mayor of Stendal, and his brothers and cousins ​​Andres, Georg, Heinrich and Gregorius, who came from the Werben branch of the Goldbeck family, for 100 guilders.

In 1774, a division agreement between Johann Friedrich von Goldbeck zu Berlin, Samuel August von Goldbeck zu Magdeburg, Heinrich Julius von Goldbeck zu Berlin and Hans Christoph von Goldbeck zu Meurs was signed over the manor Wahrburg.

The von Goldbeck and von Rynow families are connected to the estate as landowners .

As a result of the estate settlement after the death of Major Carl Friedrich von Goldbeck zu Wahrburg (approx. 1848), the manor Wahrburg passed to the noble von Nordeck family.

The Berlin-Lehrter Railway, established in 1871, cuts through the village in an east-west direction. A windmill used to stand right next to the railway line on today's Mühlenweg.

In the period after the political turning point in 1989 , new homes were built. Around 15 houses were built to the west of the town center. In 2000 a new day care center was completed.

Castle

Three hundred meters south of the village south of the old Uchte and north of today's Uchte is an oval ring wall (probably Wendish), which is divided into two halves by the construction of a path and is fairly leveled. The structure of the medieval Niederungsburg, the Wallburg "Alte Burg", which is visible above ground, is now designated as a ground monument. The castle served to protect the military road leading to Tangermünde . The area is now used as an allotment garden . In the north of the complex there is the field name "Der Burgwall".

prehistory

In the 20th century remains of a settlement from the late Roman period were found near Wahrburg. Ceramic vessels and animal bones were recovered and are kept in the Altmark Museum in Stendal.

Origin of the place name

Friedrich Hoßfeld thinks that the name "warborch" from 1429 is derived from the Old High German wari, weri for defense and therefore stands for "castle for defense".

Incorporations

On September 30, 1928 the manor district of Wahrburg was merged with the rural community of Wahrburg. On July 1, 1950, the municipality of Wahrburg was incorporated into the city of Stendal from the district of Stendal .
