history

Village church in Zobbenitz

Zobbenitz is first mentioned in 1347 as Czobeniz (1472 Sobbenize , 1539 Sebenitze ). It is of Wendish origin and has a horseshoe shape. This can still be seen today. Zobbenitz is historically connected to the town of Calvörde, as an exclave of the Principality of Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel . The village belonged to the former half court, an area that was claimed by the Archbishopric Magdeburg and the House of Braunschweig each half.

Zobbenitz came to the office of Calvörde in 1571 after several owners , after Calvörde was redeemed by Duke Julius of Braunschweig and combined with the half-court (with Zobbenitz, Uthmöden , Dorst and Born ). The office existed until 1945.

Zobbenitz survived two major fires and was almost completely destroyed in the Thirty Years War , but is now more worth seeing than ever. In 1672, today's listed church was built in half-timbered style. It is the gem of the place and probably unique in this region. In recent years it has been renovated from the foundation to the top of the tower, including the organ. In 1707 Zobbenitz came through the Recess to the Brunswick exclave Calvörde . Farm stock of the village in the 18th century: 15 farm people , 2 big dogs , 4 small dogs and 2 brinkers on 17-18 hooves and one double hoof .

In 1864 the Feldmark was redistributed through the separation, on the one hand to drain moors and on the other hand because the agricultural area from Zobbenitz reached until shortly before Born . In 1902 a dairy was built here. In 1911 there was already a connection to the Neuhaldensleben-Gardelegen small railway line. This was shut down in 1951. Until 1945 Zobbenitz belonged to the
district of Helmstedt , then to the district of Gardelegen until it was assigned to the district of Haldensleben in 1950.

On January 1, 2010, the previously independent municipalities of Zobbenitz, Berenbrock (with Elsebeck and Lössewitz ), Dorst , Grauingen , Klüden , Mannhausen , Velsdorf and Wegenstedt merged with the town of Calvörde to form the new municipality of Calvörde.

The design of a coat of arms for the municipality of Zobbenitz was commissioned by the municipal council in June 1995 to the Magdeburg municipal heraldist Jörg Mantzsch , so that in the seal, on the flag and in other uses, an officially approved coat of arms that complies with the rules of heraldry as a national emblem and symbol of municipal To lead identity. The coat of arms, previously used by the community in common law, showing a horse, could not be approved. However, it was the wish and resolution of the community to lead a horse in the Brunswick colors. It should be noted that the colors of the Duchy of Braunschweig changed several times since the late Middle Ages due to the division of inheritance. While the shield of the House of Braunschweig originally carried a golden lion in a red field, a blue lion soon appeared in a golden field. The ducal house also carried a four-part shield, each of which had two of the above. Coats of arms alternately showed. So the question the heraldist Mantzsch faced was: Should the coat of arms colors be gold-red or blue-gold? Since Zobbenitz was part of the Duchy of Braunschweig (not Braunschweig-Lüneburg), the tinctures blue and gold were chosen.
