Wolziger Mühle

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Wolziger Mühle was a watermill in the area of ​​today's Wünsdorf (part of the city of Zossen ) in the Teltow-Fläming district ( Brandenburg ). It was possibly the last remnant of a medieval village ( Woltz ) or was later built on the site of a medieval village at the outflow of the Wolziger See to the Großer Wünsdorfer See . It was first mentioned in a document in 1541.

The Wolziger Mühle on the Urmes table sheet from 1841; there referred to as a sawmill. On the other side of the river ("Notte Canal") the Neuhof Vorwerk. To the northeast is the Schlotthorst establishment, listed as an invalid house. To the southwest is the "Colonie Neuhof" and the sheep farm.

Geographical location

The Wolziger Mühle was close to the beginning of the river between the Wolziger See and the Großer Wünsdorfer See. This river is now also known as the Notte Canal. In the past, however, this flow was not associated with the Notte and was never referred to as the Notte or Notte Canal.

history

In 1541 "the Moller zw Woltz" is mentioned in a document. The mention of Woltz already led Berthold Schulze to assume in 1935 that "on the field of the village of Woltzig, which died in the Middle Ages ... the Woltziger mill (existed) in the 17th century". He does not name specific sources. Whether the Wolziger Mühle was the last remnant of a medieval village or whether it was later rebuilt on the site of the medieval village, or whether it was named after Lake Wolziger (without a previous settlement) cannot be decided at the moment. There are no archaeological finds that could indicate a medieval settlement. The name Woltz / Woltzig is of Slavic origin, but according to Gerhard Schlimpert it is ambiguous or can be derived from several basic forms. It is also unclear whether the place is named after the lake or the Wolziger See after the alleged medieval village. He could be from an aso. / plb. Basic form * Vol'š-k- or * Vol'š-sk, alder, eller (cf. nso. Wolša = alder). Another interpretation is the derivation of a basic form * Vol'sk- to * vol = ox or a personal name * Vol-, a nickname of * Volimir or * Voligost. In this case the lake would have been named after the place. Rather unlikely in view of the numerous other similarly sounding water names. A third possibility is the derivation from an aso./plb. Basic form * Volč'sk- = wolf.

According to the inheritance register of the Zossen office from 1583, the Wolziger miller had a watermill with one gear. He had fields and meadows and was allowed to fish on Lake Wolziger. The mill was destroyed in the Thirty Years War . In 1647 it was referred to as “a completely ruined mill”. It was rebuilt in 1649 and now had two corridors. At that time there was also a sheep farm connected to the mill, in whose sheepfold 700 sheep could be kept. In 1700/01 a Vorwerk was built on the other side of the river ( Notte Canal ), which comes from the Wolziger See, opposite the Wolziger Mühle. In 1711, two pairs of householders and a shepherd lived in Wolzig next to the miller. In 1745 the Wolziger Mühle is described again as a watermill with one gear. In 1745 the sheep farm seems to belong to the Vorwerk or to be connected with it. In 1749, in addition to Meier, Müller, the shepherds and four householders, a wine master was also named. However, it is a one-time mention. Neither in later documents nor in the Schmettauschen card is a winemaker named or a vineyard shown. In 1757/8 the "Colonie Neuhof" was laid out southwest of Mühle and Vorwerk. The Wolziger Mühle was owned by a certain Bethge, who also directed the establishment of the Neuhof colony. In 1788 Johann Christian Wernicke was Erb-Wassermüller at the Wolziger Mühle. The Wolziger Mühle initially remained free of parishes; The Neuhof manor district arose from the Vorwerk . In 1836 a mill master Wernicke was still the owner of the Wolziger Mühle. In 1841 the mill is referred to as a sawmill on the Urmes table, in which, as only a little more recent documents show, grain was also ground.

In 1864 the mill owner was named Carl Ernst August Kayser. In 1872 the Wolziger Mühle was presumably converted or z. Partly newly built, the owner was a mill master named Seraphin. The previous owner Kayser is mentioned. In 1873 the population of Wolziger Mühle is given as 7 people. The Wolziger Mühle seems to have existed until the 1930s. After that the track of the Wolziger Mühle is lost or the history has not yet been researched. Today there is an agricultural property on the site of the old Wolziger Mühle.

At the time of the first documentary mention, the Wolziger Mühle belonged to the Zossen office, which emerged from the Zossen rule in 1490/1 . In 1655 it is already referred to as a hereditary water mill, i. i.e., it was privately owned. Also in 1771 it is explicitly referred to as a private water mill. In 1876 the community-free "Etablissement" Wolziger Mühle was attached to the Neuhof community association ( Colonie Neuhof ). In 1877 the manor district and the Neuhof municipality were merged to form the Neuhof municipality. The municipality of Neuhof lost its independence in 1974 when it was incorporated into Wünsdorf and became a district of Wünsdorf. In 2003 Wünsdorf and its Neuhof district were incorporated into the city of Zossen. Since then Neuhof has only been part of the municipality of Wünsdorf.

In 1778, the Schlotthorst establishment was built north-east of the Wolziger Mühle on a peninsula that jutted into the Wolziger See , initially a two-family house. In 1841 it is referred to as the Invalidenhaus on the original table sheet. It initially belonged to the municipality-free district of Wolziger Mühle and only seems to have been incorporated into Next-Wünsdorf around 1858 together with the Neuhof an der Straße ( Chaussee ) between Wünsdorf and Neuhof .
