history

Werder

Werder was first mentioned in a document on November 11, 1234. Prince Heinrich of Mecklenburg pledged his share in the Land Turne and the Lübzer Schloss Eldenburg to the brothers Helmold, Hinricke, Hennecken and Godewarde von Plessen, who lived in Lübz . It was not until 1446 that Werder was mentioned again in donations in the St. Marienkirche in Parchim . During the renovation of Lübz Castle, the farmers from Werder and Lattran (Lutheran) had to provide manual and clamping services.

During the Thirty Years' War there were skirmishes and looting as well as billeting in Werder. The height of the suffering and the destruction of the village was in 1635. In the inventory of the Princely Office of Lübz from May 31, 1644 you can read about the village of Werder: Hirin lived in 12 Hufener, with Schulzen, a half Hufener, 3 Kossaten and 7 Büdners, itzo still lives 7 in it. Some of the daughters worked in Lübz and the sons were soldiers in Denmark at the time.
