Brick houses

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ziegelhäuser is an officially designated residential area in the Theisa district of the spa town of Bad Liebenwerda in the Elbe-Elster district in southern Brandenburg . This is located about one kilometer northeast of Theisa. It is locally marked by a street of the same name, which branches off from Landesstraße 653 or is part of it.

The brick houses are originally one of the town's three colonies . In addition to the brick houses, these were the re-created location of the village of Thalberg west of Theisa and the pond houses at the western entrance to the village , which were created around an area where a pond used to be. These colonies were established by the Theisa manor from the middle of the 18th century . This is probably how the pond houses were built first. This was followed by the construction of the Thalberg colony (from 1789) and then, from the beginning of the 19th century, gradually finally mostly brick houses, two of which are even older. Already in 1794 a Zinsdorfer named Mayer is said to have built a house here. Seven pieces of land belonging to the brick houses were leased by the manor between 1800 and 1820. At least the manor owner, judicial officer Christian August Schulze, is said to have given some of his settlers loans. In return, the settlers had to pay various taxes to the manor in Theisa, had to first offer their wage labor to the manor and perform other services for the manor. Furthermore, the manor retained a right of first refusal for the respective properties and houses.

The brick houses colony, which appears in historical documents, documents and maps under the place names Ziegelscheune , Ziegelschenne and Ziegeldörfchen , was, like the two other Theisa colonies, not endowed with land of its own, because the colonies were presumably primarily used by the manor to recruit workers. The settlement very likely got its name from a nearby brickworks or brick barn, which also belonged to the manor. There was also a clay pit here, which according to an article by the local researcher and former Theisa teacher Rudolf Matthies (1909-1996) published in 1937 in the Black Elster was still to be recognized that year. Another brick factory of the Theisaer Rittergut was located in the Liebenwerdaer Heide .

Together with the Theisaer manor, his other two colonies and other places, was one brick houses from 1874 to District Maasdorf of the circle Liebenwerda . A few years later in 1880 disputes arose between the Theisa manor and the community over the brick houses colony. Presumably for reasons of responsibility for the welfare of the poor, neither of the two parties to the dispute wanted to recognize the settlement as belonging to itself. The incident finally went to court and the settlement was ultimately assigned to the municipality in a second instance.
