Location of Warthe in Brandenburg |
||
Warthe is a part of the municipality of Boitzenburger Land , which was first mentioned in the 13th century. The community belongs to the Uckermark district in the state of Brandenburg . Until 2001, the street village of Warthe belonged as an independent municipality to the former Boitzenburg office. It is located in the middle of the Uckermärkische Seen nature park, created in 1997 .
Townscape
location
To the south of Warthe are the residential areas Luisenfelde (formerly the district of Warthes) and Metzelthin, to the south-east are the residential areas Egarsee and the village of Jakobshagen . To the east are the Stabeshöhe residential area and the village of Klaushagen . The next places to the north are the Rosenow residential area and the village of Hardenbeck . To the northwest are the Brüsenwalde residential areas and Mahlendorf, which belongs to the former Warth community. A little further to the west lies the Lychen part of the municipality Küstrinchen. The nearest town is Templin , about 10 km to the south, which was once a district town. However, Lychen , which is about 12 km to the west, is not much further away.
It is not for nothing that the village is located in the middle of the Uckermärkische Seen nature reserve. There are several small lakes directly on the outskirts of the village: the Rathenowsee, the Kleine and the Große Warthesee and at the residential area Bröddin the Poviestsee. Not far to the west are the Stoitzsee and the Große Barberowsee and to the north the Flache Clöwen and the Tief Clöwen.

traffic
The streets and paths in town are manageable. They are as follows:
|
|
|
The Bahnhofstrasse is a reminder that until 1945 there was a rail connection over the Templin-Fährkrug-Fürstenwerder line in the village. Today it no longer exists.
Almost completely on the former embankment of this route is a cycle path under construction, the "trace of the stones", which is already largely passable. (Status 2011)
Via Jakobshagener Straße you get to Landesstraße L 217. If you follow this south, it joins Bundesstraße 109, which leads through Templin and Zehdenick .
The shortest way to Prenzlau would be via the villages Jakobshagen, Herzfelde, Mittenwalde and from the latter via the federal highway 109 northwards directly to Prenzlau.
The town of Lychen can be reached via Mahlendorf, from there following Mahlendorfer Straße in a northerly direction until it goes left at a crossroads to the L15 state road. If you follow this, you get directly to Lychen.
The place Warthe is connected to the bus network of the "Uckermärkische Verkehrsgesellschaft".
Attractions
The place is especially worth seeing because of its nature rich in forests and lakes. The Great Warthesee has a bathing area. There are also small swimming areas at Rathenowsee. Hiking trails are signposted and lead through the landscape of the Uuckmarket. Blueberries and mushrooms can be found in the wooded area during the respective seasons .
The church dates from 1825 and is a plastered building without a tower. The last church renovation was 1986-88. The lead glass windows of the church date from this time . Craftsman Peter Hartlich from Mittenwalde made them. The organ is from 1842. It was renovated in 1992. The winter church under the gallery was built in 1994/95. In 2001 the belfry , the morgue and the collapsed cemetery wall were restored with the help of ABM workers .
The belfry, which is separate from the church, is located on the Priesterberg. It has two bells, the smaller of which is over 700 years old and dates from the time the church was founded. The new cemetery is located near the belfry. The foundations of the older stone church, which was demolished in 1831, can still be seen. There are also isolated tombstones of the old neglected cemetery that are overgrown with scrub and buried in the ground. So is z. B. the tombstone of the Warther Johann Springborn (1823-1904) can be found.
Three oaks, which were planted in memory of the Warth fallen in the Franco-German War , surround the war memorial , erected in 1920 , which lists the names of the Warth fallen in the First World War .
The village's “home parlor” is a small museum. The building was once a forge and was later used as part of the school.
Regular festive events such as harvest festivals or torchlight parades also invite you to visit.
Economy and Infrastructure
Infrastructure
The infrastructure of the village of Warthe is comparatively poor (in 2011). There is a lack of educational and childcare facilities, medical care, a pharmacy, a post office, a bank, extensive shopping facilities, etc. Therefore, the residents are drawn to the larger village of Boitzenburg, v. a. however, dependent on the cities of the region. But Warthe is not the only one among the villages of the Uckermark. The station Warta was on the railway line Templin Fährkrug-Fürstenwerder that shut down is.
In the Warther Dorfstraße there is the “Drei Eichen” inn and a master baker. In addition, there is the “House of Care”, a small nursing home and home nursing service.
Companies
Warthe is a traditionally agricultural and forestry village. There are no resident industrial companies. Only small businesses can still be found in the town to a small extent. In addition to an inn and a bakery, there will be an artist, a real estate service provider, an electrician, a children's and family camp and holiday homes in Warthe in 2011. This also shows that tourism has reached a relevant size for Warta. Here the place can benefit from the fact that it is located in the middle of a wide and varied natural landscape.

coat of arms
Warthe never had its own coat of arms. As a district of the Boitzenburger Land, it bears its coat of arms, which is divided into four fields: two fields show two silver bars in red in reference to the aristocratic von Arnim family, who once ruled the region for centuries, the renaissance castle gable is reminiscent of Boitzenburg Castle and the pointed arch window of the Boitzenburg monastery .

Club life
In addition to the “Heimatstube”, which researches local history, there is a local branch of the German Anglers' Association in Warthe . There is also the volunteer fire brigade and the “Öko-Insel am Warthesee e. V. "
dialect
The population of Warthe speaks standard German today . However, older people in particular still traditionally speak the northern Brandenburg variant of Low German , which was prevalent in the region until the 19th century. There is an essay on the dialect of the village from 1907 by the Germanist Hermann Teuchert .
religion
Since the Reformation , Warthe has been an Evangelical Lutheran village. Not least because of the doctrine of the GDR and before that of the Third Reich , however, the proportion of religious affiliates has declined sharply. In 2008 the share of non-denominational people in Brandenburg was 79.3% (including religious minorities), followed by supporters of Protestantism with 17.3%. This size ratio should be found in a comparable way in Warthe.
history
6th century ago (Warther region)
Until the time of the Great Migration , Germanic tribes lived in the greater region around Warta. It is not known whether there was also a Germanic settlement in or near Warthe. The local Germans were archaeologically counted among the Elbe Germans . The tribes living between the Baltic Sea and the low mountain range were called the Suebi tribal association . A sub-tribe of this union were the Lemovians , who settled on the Oder , east of Warthe, but perhaps also in the water-rich Warther area. In the course of the Great Migration, the Suebi tribes left the region, as did other Germanic tribes, v. a. because of the pressure from advancing northern Germans, the lack of agriculturally profitable settlement areas, as well as because of the retreat from attacks by the Huns and their allies. Most of them came through warlike means to the area of the weakened and gradually collapsing Roman Empire . The land areas with abandoned settlements that were freed as a result were populated by Slavs (" Wends ") coming from the east . The same applies to the Warthe region.
6th to 12th century (Warther region)
Warthe is located in the settlement area of the West Slavic tribe of the Retschanen . The West Slavic tribes immigrated to what is now East Germany in the late 6th century. Among them were the ancestors of the later Retschans. It is not known whether a Slavic settlement existed in or near Warthe before it was settled by German settlers in the course of eastern colonization . However, due to the protected and at the same time lake-rich location near the Retschanenzentren Lychen and Templin, it can be seen as possible. After the Wendekreuzzug of 1147, the area came under Ascanian rule and thus also became part of the Holy Roman Empire and its margravate Nordmark . However, the Ascanians did not immediately insist on real dominance of the area. It still took a certain amount of time to consolidate power in the region, which went hand in hand with the construction of castles and fortified houses, before the region around Warthe was also firmly under Brandenburg rule. After the Wenden campaign, it was possible to bring German settlers into the area, who were then also settled in Warthe and thus founded the village, unless a predecessor Slavic settlement or a Slavic dwelling already existed. Around 1157, the Margraviate of Brandenburg emerged from the Nordmark , part of which the Warta region was henceforth.
13th to 15th centuries
Warthe was first mentioned in a document in 1295, but this is not an indicator of how old the settlement is. At that time it was subordinate to the Marienpforte monastery, as were the villages of Bröddin and Mahlendorf, which later belonged to the Warth community. Probably also at the end of the 13th century, the first village church, a field stone building, was built on the Priesterberg. In 1445 the first named inhabitant of Warthe is mentioned, an "Achim from Warthe", who, in addition to his Warther property, also owned two farms in Gandenitz.
16th to 18th century
In 1527 Warthe had forty Hufen farmland. The Boitzenburg Castle Register from 1528 shows 16 farmers for Warthe equipped with the Hofwehr. From the year 1528 it is also known which services every Warth farmer had to pay to the Marienpforte monastery: half a day plowing fallow land, half a day manure, one day in autumn to sow rye, one day plowing oatland and two days in autumn mowing.
In 1539 the monastery was secularized , after which the villages of Warthe, Bröddin and Mahlendorf, along with other villages in the monastery, came into the possession of the von Arnim family . At the time of 1543 the church of Warthe was a mother church, the one in Mahlendorf a part church of Warthe, as well as that of Klaushagen, at least temporarily.
In 1570 the Boitzenburg rule was divided into an upper and lower house, whereupon Warthe, Mahlendorf and half of Bröddin were made part of the lower house. At that time there were seven Vierhüfner and one Krüger in Warthe, of which one Vierhüfner owned a desolate Wörde. There was also a miller and the Lehnschulzen, who owned four Hufen land and two (half?) Wörden.
It is reported that in 1623 an extremely heavy hail fell over the nearby town of Templin, which destroyed most of the roofs and house inventory, as well as causing great damage to people and cattle. Due to the proximity of Warthe, the storm may also have left its mark there.
In the Thirty Years War the stone church was badly devastated. It was not restored until 1741.
In 1701 the personal union of Brandenburg-Prussia was transformed into the Kingdom of Prussia . Since then and until the dissolution of Prussia in 1947, Warthe was to be a Prussian village.
19th century to 1945
In 1806 the association of states of the Holy Roman Empire was dissolved, to which Warthe, as part of the Prussian state, had belonged since then. In 1815, with its affiliation to Prussia, Warthe became a village within the German Confederation , a successor organization to the HRR. In the same year the Mark Brandenburg was converted into the Prussian Province of Brandenburg .
In 1818 the new Prussian district of Templin was established, to which Warthe belonged in the future (until 1993).
As early as 1831, the church building in Warthe, which had a tower, had to be demolished again, as it threatened to collapse due to poor building materials and sandy subsoil. Today's church, a rectangular plastered building, was built in 1825 without a tower on the village meadow. In the 1840s, a belfry was built on the Priesterberg. The middle of the three bells inside had to be delivered in 1917 for the purpose of being melted down during the First World War . The smallest of the two bells available today dates from the time the church was founded and is around 700 years old. So it still comes from Catholic times. The present church organ was acquired in 1920. The organ builder Christoph Schröder from Niederlausitz built it in 1842 for the hospital church of the French community in Berlin .
In 1866 the German Confederation, to which Warthe and Prussia had belonged, was dissolved. The successor to this union was the North German Confederation and, since the victory over France in 1871, the German Empire .
After the Franco-Prussian War (1870/71), four oaks were planted in the village square in memory of the four fallen in the village. Three of the oaks still exist and gave the nearby restaurant their name.
In the second half of the 19th century, as in many other places, there was also increased emigration in Warthe . a. to the USA . Young, unattached people left Warthe as well as entire families. In particular, these were z. B. the unmarried Auguste Dietrich , farmer Robert Fink , worker Carl Heise with his wife and sons, farmer Albert Lorenz , worker Gustav Sandow , fisherman Ferdinand Sandow , worker Carl Syring , his son Rudolf Syring with his wife and daughter, worker Ferdinand Syring with his wife and five children, Christian Kruse , Friedrich Wilhelm Kruse and Gottfried Kruse with an attachment.
Between 1913 and 1945 there was a railway connection on the Templin-Fährkrug-Fürstenwerder railway in Warthe. The railway line, built between 1910 and 1912, led from Templin via the Fährkrug, Metzelthin, Warthe, Hardenbeck, Krewitz, Weggun-Arendsee and Parmen stops to Fürstenwerder .
In 1920 a memorial was erected for those who died in the commune of Warthe in the First World War.
In 1930 the Warthe volunteer fire brigade was founded by twenty-two comrades. Initially, equipment included a horse-drawn hand syringe.
1945 until today
After the Second World War , Warthe was initially part of the Soviet occupation zone, and from October 7, 1949 it emerged in the GDR . This was to remain so until the dissolution of the GDR on October 3, 1990, after which Warthe became part of the Federal Republic of Germany as part of the German reunification as part of the new federal state of Brandenburg . As before the war, Warthe had belonged to the Templin district in the GDR, which until 1952 was assigned to the old Potsdam administrative district and, after its dissolution, to the Neubrandenburg district .
In 1992 the office "Boitzenburg (Uckermark)" was set up, to which Warthe was also assigned.
In 1993 the district of Uckermark was created, to which the district of Templin, which had existed since 1818, was incorporated. Warthe now belonged to the new district.
In 1995, as part of the 700th anniversary celebration, the Heimatstube was opened in the village's former smithy, which serves as a small museum. Residents of the village provided exhibits for this purpose. The Heimatstube contains evidence of village life and memorabilia from the former Templin-Fährkrug-Fürstenwerder railway line . The building also houses a small library.
The former primary school in Warthe was closed in 1998.
The previously independent municipality of Warthe with the districts of Mahlendorf, Bröddin, Krumme Hecken and Luisenfelde was added to the newly created municipality of Boitzenburger Land on December 31, 2001, to which the village has belonged ever since. The Boitzenburg (Uckermark) office, which had existed since 1992, was dissolved at the same time. As part of the new large community, Warthe remained part of the Uckermark district.
On April 11, 2012, a previously discovered spherical lake mine in a railway bridge pillar of the former railway embankment, two kilometers from the entrance to the town of Warth, was defused by an demolition engineer after two hours of work . The bomb weighed 500 kg, had a diameter of 1035 mm, contained 300 kg of explosives and was placed there by the German Wehrmacht during the war in 1945 so that the bridge could be blown up when the Allies approached. Due to the great need for explosive devices, a sea mine was used for other strategically important bridges. If the bomb had detonated, it would have destroyed everything within a radius of at least 50 m, which is why the area was cordoned off by volunteer fire departments of the community during the defusing process. The district of Bröddin was completely evacuated, the residents of which found accommodation in the Warther fire station.
