geography
Geographical location
The area of the former municipality of Zerpenschleuse covers an area of 1742 hectares. The current district of Wandlitz is located in the Eberswalde glacial valley , on the northern edge of the Barnim plateau, part of the so-called Niederbarnim , 38 kilometers north of the city center of Berlin .
The height of the local area above sea level rises only slightly to the north. The highest point at 58.7 meters above sea level is an elevation in the northern forest area on the northern border of the community to the Schorfheider district of Groß Schönebeck . At 37.0 meters above sea level, the water surface of the Oder-Havel Canal on the eastern border on the Klanfließ is the lowest point in the town. The height of the town center at the bridge of the B 109 over the Langen Trödel is 40 meters above sea level.
Neighboring places
Zerpenschleuse is bounded in the east and southeast by the municipality of Marienwerder with the district Ruhlsdorf and in the west and southwest by the city of Liebenwalde with the towns and current districts of Hammer and Kreuzbruch . In the north, the community of Schorfheide borders on Zerpenschleuse, here with the districts of Groß Schönebeck, Klandorf and Böhmerheide .
Zerpenschleuse originally formed an exclave of the Wandlitz community, there was no direct connection to other Wandlitz districts. By exchanging areas with Liebenwalde, during which a few other smaller exclaves were dissolved, a narrow corridor could be created along federal road 109, which connects Zerpenschleuse with the rest of the municipality.
Natural space
Zerpenschleuse is located on the northern edge of the Barnim Nature Park and the southern border of the Schorfheide-Chorin Biosphere Reserve . The immediate settlement areas of the place are left out of the protected areas. They are concentrated along the federal highway 109 and the Finow Canal, the Lange Trödel . In the north and south of the local area there are larger forest areas. The central areas along the Oder-Havel Canal and the Finow Canal in east-west direction are mostly open spaces. Of water areas of the site Zerpenschleuse has only some small ditches and leveling, as apart from the two channels Klanfließ on the eastern border and the rafters ditch . There are no lakes in the local area.
history
First settlements with the construction of the Finow Canal in the 17th century
The history of Zerpenschleuse began with the Finow Canal, the construction of which Elector Joachim Friedrich ordered in 1603 and which was carried out between 1605 and 1620. It was to connect the Alte Havel near Liebenwalde with the Mölln lakes west of today's Finowfurt over a length of 39.4 kilometers . The Hammerdammer lock was also built when the canal was built. This no longer existed at the end of the 17th century, but in 1660 a potash distillery was built near this lock and in 1683/84 a glassworks on a deserted area during the Thirty Years War , around which a small settlement was formed along the Finow Canal. The old canal lock was now called Zerpellschleuse or Zerpenschleuse , possibly after the fact that the skippers unloaded broken glass here for the glassworks. Other assumptions about the origin of the name are based on a proper name, according to which the builder of the lock or a lock master was called Zerpe or Zerpen. An indication of this would be that the name Zerpenschleuse first appeared in this spelling in 1650.
Growth through craft and trade
In 1727 a Vorwerk of the Liebenwalde office with a pitcher and a cutting mill was built on the grounds of the glassworks . The Finow Canal was rebuilt from 1743, as it had fallen into disrepair during and after the Thirty Years War, and was put back into operation in 1746. In 1747 the settlement around the glassworks had 28 adult residents. Today it is known as the Alt-Zerpenschleuse. The Barbican was in 1765 by King Friedrich II. The bailiff Kienitz in leasehold given on the condition that Spinner families as colonists to settle. In the same year the council of war and then domain tenant Berg founded the Berg colony named after him with 29 settlers north of the glassworks. From 1774 onwards, with the settlement of 22 colonist families from different areas of Germany on the road towards Berlin, the third district of Zerpenschleuse, the Kienitz colony, emerged . The estate was sold by the Kienitz heirs in 1784 and after several changes of ownership came into the possession of the district that parceled out the lands. In 1801 the leasehold had 91 houses with 668 inhabitants, the number of which rose to 852 by 1805. Alt-Zerpenschleuse had 276 inhabitants, including 50 boatmen who founded a guild in 1805 . In 1822, due to the increased population, the place received a school building with a classroom and a teacher's apartment.
The destruction of the church and the rectory in 1832 by fire was followed by the construction of a school and sexton house in 1834 and the construction of a new church from 1845 to 1849 .
Since 1845 Zerpenschleuse had a forestry and a rifle guild . The two colonies of Berg and Kienitz remained independent rural communities alongside Alt-Zerpenschleuse, but were already jointly referred to as Neu-Zerpenschleuse . In 1856 the entire settlement had 1724 inhabitants who lived in 150 houses. The Kienitz colony alone consisted of 53 residential, 62 commercial and 4 public buildings in 1860, with a windmill and a jug below the commercial buildings. The three parts of the settlement and the estate were connected to 56 hectares of arable land, 18 hectares of meadows and 1 hectare of forest. In addition to the rifle guild, other associations were founded in the 19th century, such as the Concordia men's choir in 1874 and a men's gymnastics club in 1888. The voluntary fire brigade was formed in 1905. In 1874, Alt-Zerpenschleuse, Neu-Zerpenschleuse and the estate were combined for the first time administratively as the Zerpenschleuse district. It was not until 1919 that Alt-Zerpenschleuse (glassworks) was combined with the two colonies of Berg and Kienitz to form the municipality of Zerpenschleuse.
Zerpenschleuse in the 20th century
At the beginning of the 20th century, two infrastructure projects were built, which had very different effects on the development of the place. Initially, Zerpenschleuse got a railway connection to the Reich capital Berlin through the alignment of a railway line to Groß Schönebeck east of the settlement, even if the Niederbarnimer Railway station , later called Heidekrautbahn , was built 1.3 kilometers from the center of the village in Ruhlsdorf.
This positive effect was countered by the construction of the Hohenzollern Canal - today's Oder-Havel Canal - from 1907 until the opening in 1914 . As a result, the Finow Canal lost its main function as a water transport route, and the importance of Zerpenschleuse for inland navigation sank rapidly. In the years 1924/25, the two lock chambers were filled in immediately before the intersection of the two canals southeast of the village, thus interrupting the Finow Canal. The resulting stagnant water of the old canal has since been called Langer Trödel from Zerpenschleuse to Liebenwalde . In 1935 the drawbridge on the former Uckermärkische Heerstraße , today Schorfheidestraße ( B 109 ), was demolished and replaced by a dam. In 1944/45 the drawbridge over the canal at the glassworks was torn down.
Zerpenschleuse was occupied by Soviet troops on April 24, 1945 at the end of the Second World War . The railway bridge over the Oder-Havel Canal, which was destroyed in the war, was rebuilt in 1948 as an arch bridge made of reinforced concrete . The Ministry of Finance of the GDR acquired the former Zerpenschleuse school home in 1952 and had it expanded into a ready- to-use children's home . The home closed after just five years and the building was handed over to LPG for use. From 1956 to 1959, production cooperatives such as PGH Motor Vehicle Repair , LPG Free Farmer ( Type III ) and LPG Morning Sun ( Type I ) developed in both the craft and agriculture sectors . In 1959, food consumption started in the former restaurant Zur feuchten Ecke . The town's first day nursery opened in the same year . In 1969 and 1971 the two LPGs merged with LPG Stolzenhagen .
After the GDR joined the Federal Republic of Germany , the local school in Zerpenschleuse was closed on July 3, 1991. The school-age children have been going to school in Klosterfelde , Marienwerder and Liebenwalde since then . The restoration of the village church began in 1992. When the Heidekrautbahn was modernized in 1999, the bridge over the Oder-Havel Canal was blown up and replaced with a new steel arch bridge. In 2002, the expansion of the side streets in Liebenwalder Strasse began. One year later, on September 19, 2003, the foundation stone was laid for a multi-purpose hall at the sports field. This was one of the last official acts of the independent municipality of Zerpenschleuse. The municipality, which until then belonged to the district of Groß Schönebeck, joined the municipal elections on October 26, 2003 as a district of the Großgemeinde Wandlitz. In contrast to the other districts of Wandlitz, the population development in Zerpenschleuse has since declined slightly to around 900 residents today.

church
Pre- and building history, brief description
The only church in the village was built as a brick half-timbered building in 1844/45 and inaugurated on December 24, 1848 with a service . It replaced a previous building, also in half-timbered construction, which stood 20 meters east of today's church and was destroyed in a fire in 1832. The remains of the building were auctioned off in 1846 . The new church with a rectangular floor plan is at Friedenplatz 5, with the long side parallel to the Lange Trödel , south of the old canal. The church tower is on the east side. The church belongs to the Protestant parish of Groß-Schönebeck.
Interior
The interior fittings of the church building , which are kept fairly uniform, essentially originate from the second construction period, when the Zerpenschleuse was mostly inhabited by craftsmen and boatmen. Particularly noteworthy is the altarpiece depicting the Nativity , a copy of a painting by a Flemish master from the 17th century. In addition, there was a neglected painting in the main nave that had been removed during renovation work on the church in the early 2000s. There was an indication in the archives that this picture is on permanent loan from the Berlin Bode Museum , to which it was returned during the renovation work. The art experts there found out that the painting The Adoration of the Three Magi most likely comes from the painting school of Peter Paul Rubens and is therefore around 400 years old. The museum had the Zerpenschleuser restorer Corinna Bensemann made a modern copy, which has been hanging in the village church since the beginning of 2008. The original remained in the Bode Museum.
The bells , cast in 1845, were melted down to extract metal during the First World War .
Apart from the repair of the church tower clock in 1957, no maintenance work took place during the GDR era.
Refurbishment 1992-2008
It was not until 1992, after German reunification , that an extensive reconstruction and renovation of the shell of the church took place, closely following its original condition. The organ has also been revised and is playable. In addition, a harmonium has been completing the equipment since the beginning of the 20th century .
Small animal courtyard
At the edge of Zerpenschleuse there is a special sight - a kind of zoo with particularly small animals. A private farm keeps and breeds rare and small animals. These include, for example, Dexter cattle , Ouessant sheep (Breton dwarf sheep, said to be the smallest breed of sheep in the world), mini pigs, dwarf goats and bantams. Upon prior registration, the animal breeders are also happy to guide visitors through their facility, which covers a total of 50 hectares.
Events
In September 2008, a dragon boat race was held for the first time on the Lange Trödel , in which 15 teams took part. In the following years these races took place repeatedly, for 2019 it is scheduled for September 7th. There is also an annual Easter bonfire , for which the communal Rotteplatz is used.
Sports
In 1924 the Zerpenschleuser football club Minerva was founded, two men's teams and one youth team could be set up. After the Second World War , all clubs were banned, so that the Minerva sports club was re-registered in 1951. Due to a lack of participation, there were no activities between 1962 and 1980, then a new club life began with football and table tennis under the historical name. After all, the sports club remained in the new Germany, and with a lot of initiative, a sports hall was built next to the existing sports field in 2004. The sporting activities include soccer, kung fu , leisure and senior sports as well as women's gymnastics.
Economy and Infrastructure
childcare
In the district there is the day care center Eichhörnchen , whose ailing building had to be replaced by a new building by a municipal decision in 2009. The new building was inaugurated on June 30, 2011. It consists of a central multi-purpose room of around 50 m² with four group rooms arranged around it. There is also a sauna , a water treading pool, a herb garden, a wood workshop and a children's kitchen. The facility, which is sponsored by the Arbeiter-Samariter-Bundes Regionalverband Barnim eV, has a capacity of 62 children. The specialty of the daycare center is the health concept according to Sebastian Kneipp. Since September 26, 2006, the day-care center has been recognized by the Kneippbund eV and thus integrates the 5 pillars (order of life, water / natural stimuli, medicinal plants / herbs, exercise and healthy nutrition) of Kneipp teaching into your everyday life.
traffic
The regional railway line RB27 of the Niederbarnimer Eisenbahn (NEB) runs through the eastern local area of Zerpenschleuse in a north-south direction from Groß Schönebeck to Berlin-Karow . The Ruhlsdorf-Zerpenschleuse stop of the RB27 is, however, already in the area of the place Ruhlsdorf, which today belongs to the neighboring municipality of Marienwerder . Two canals run through the town from east to west, the Oder-Havel Canal and the Lange Trödel as the remainder of the older Finow Canal. The federal highways 167 from Eberswalde to Liebenwalde also crosses the local area and meets the 109 from Berlin, which continues in the direction of Prenzlau as state road 100.
