Wenddorf (Osterburg)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wenddorf is a residential area in the Meseberg district of the Hanseatic city of Osterburg (Altmark) in the Stendal district in Saxony-Anhalt .

geography

Wenddorf is a small settlement a few hundred meters north of the village of Meseberg.

geology

To the east of the settlement is a geotope , the former Meseberg sand pit on the Mühlenberg, which was formerly called Meseberg. Below Wenddorf there is a growing salt dome from the Zechstein . The Zechstein salt, which is usually a few hundred meters deep, rose like a plug here and formed a salt dome, thereby driving the Mühlenberg up from the underground. In its upper areas it is drained. The residue forms a plaster hat.

history

The Wenddorf colony was established at the beginning of the 19th century on parcels of the Meseberg manor.

A Wendtorf residential area was mentioned in the parish dictionary in 1885. The settlement is older and was already listed on the measuring table in 1873, but without its own name.

The historian Peter P. Rohrlach thinks that there could be a connection to a formerly desolate farm near Meseberg, the location of which Wilhelm Zahn described in 1909 as follows: 1.6 kilometers north of the village of Meseberg, only 400 meters from Blankensee , there is an irregularly shaped field width , Called "Hagemann's hooves".
