history

In a document from King Otto III. From the year 992 the place is mentioned for the first time with the name Sipli and is left to the monastery Memleben . The location at that time was about three kilometers north of today's town center. It was then probably desolate for a long time before Flemish immigrants founded the town of Dudendorf further south in the 12th century , which later took on the name Ziepel again via Czipell (1424), Ciepel (1459), Tzipel (1477) and Zcipel (1562). The first church in the village was built in the 13th century. The village was on the old Brandenburg – Magdeburg military road .

During the Thirty Years' War , mercenary troops raided the place on April 25, 1636 and completely destroyed it. The farms were only rebuilt thirty years later. Among other things, barley was grown here , which was delivered to the breweries in Burg.

In the course of the Prussian administrative reform, Ziepel was assigned to the district of Jerichow I with the district town of Burg in 1818 .

In 1847 Ziepel was listed in the "Topographical-Statistical Handbook of the Prussian State". The parish village included a Protestant church, a windmill, 34 houses and 220 souls.

In 1882 it was connected to the Biederitz – Altengrabow railway line. At that time Ziepel had about 370 inhabitants. The population increased after the Second World War , when many refugees from the lost German eastern territories settled here. When the GDR authorities dissolved the pre-war administrative structures in 1952, Ziepel came to the Burg district in the Magdeburg district. 1964 lived in the place 523 inhabitants. After the end of the GDR and another district reform, Ziepel found himself in the Jerichower Land district in 1994. On January 1, 2003 it was incorporated into the city of Möckern.
