The "Zootzer Dorfstelle", a Yugoslav settlement that was deserted in the Middle Ages, is located 8 kilometers north of Rheinsberg and 1.9 kilometers northwest of Zechlinerhütte on the north bank of the Zootzensee. The area belongs to the Rheinsberg Lake District , which is the southwestern part of the Neustrelitz Kleinseenland .

history

The first written mention of the place, which probably became desolate at the end of the 13th or beginning of the 14th century, comes from the year 1283 and it is recorded with the name Sucene . Before 1283, six  Hufen in the village and the neighboring Repente belonged to the knight Wichmann Glude and Johann von Havelberg. Half of the village of Repente and the six Hufen in Zootzen were given to the Johanniter Commandery in Mirow by the Margrave in the year mentioned, subject to some interest . 1303 there is another document in which the place was referred to as Sozene. In that year, the Johanniter's ownership rights to the six Hufen in the village were given up to Prince Heinrich of Mecklenburg .

At a later date, the six Hufen, already mentioned in 1283 and 1303, came into the possession of the Bishop of Havelberg. After 1303 the village was probably already a desert. It is unclear when the settlement actually became desolate. The desert terrain in the episcopal and electoral forest of Zechlin has risen . Around 1550 there is a written mention of the place with the name Teetz, and at that time it is mentioned as a desolate field of the House of Zechlin. Later he belonged to the Zechlin office .

In 1707 the village center with an area of ​​17 acres and 243 square rods was leased to Flecken Zechlin . In 1721 the “Zootzer Dorfstelle” bordered the field mark of the villages “in the royal heather district”. In 1736 and in the following years, the White Glassworks and an associated colony were built in the southeast of the desert Feldmark Zootzen, today's Zechlinerhütte.

Before 1816 the place belonged to the Wittstockischen Kreis in the Prignitz of the Mark Brandenburg and then came to the district of Ostprignitz . From 1946 it fell to the Ruppin district , and in 1952 it came to the Neuruppin district in the Potsdam district . The desert has belonged to the Ostprignitz-Ruppin district since 1993 and is now in the Zechlinerhütte district, a district of Rheinsberg.
