History and etymology
Early to the 16th century
As urn grave finds north of the vineyards show in 2007, the area around Zossen was already settled in the Bronze Age. Like many other towns in Brandenburg, Zossen was originally a Slavic foundation. The name Zossen is probably derived from the Old Sorbian name for the pine ( sosny ); the city arms also refer to this. The place is first mentioned in documents in 1320 as Sossen, Suzozne, Zozne . The early German castle on a small hill in the north-west of the city was built as a margravial-Meissen border fortress and obviously had a Slavic rampart in the typical valley island location at the Notte crossing as its predecessor . At that time, in 1346, Zossen was looked after by the diocese of Meißen with its own provost office in Zossen. In 1375, Czossen (other spellings were Czosen or Czoszen ) appeared in Charles IV's land book as a town and castle ( civitas et castrum; municio ).
In the Middle Ages, Zossen was the capital of a small aristocratic lordship ( Herrschaft Zossen ) and belonged to the Torgau family (Towgow), the Lords of Zossen , from before 1349 , whose ownership had been confirmed by Charles IV . They expanded the castle. A small market town emerged to the east, further east on a tributary of the Kietz, named in 1430 . The historic city center, on the other hand, was on Baruth-Berliner-Strasse with a market-like area. According to reports, it was unpaved and around 330 m × 330 m in size. The Lords of Zossen passed the property on to a Georg von Stein in 1478, who only held it until 1490. In that year the city was acquired by the Brandenburg margrave Johann Cicero and converted into an office. The power extended to "Schloß und Städtchen" as well as Kietz with upper and lower courts, church patronage , as well as services and elevations. According to the Dehio handbook , Zossen developed into "one of the richest offices in the market". Two years after the acquisition, the von Glaubitzs appear , who until the beginning of the 16th century owned a free farm in Zossen together with the Glechow family, ie were exempt from taxes. They also owned another free farm that they had acquired from the Thümen family.
Before 1522, the von Otterstä (e) dt zu Dahlwitz family continued to appear , and their Freihaus and accessories were passed on to the Bardeleben family in 1522 . In 1536, Zossen was in the possession of Eustachius von Schlieben , who had Zossen expanded into a fortress and some outworks built. Under him, the fishing waters were expanded, the Notte made navigable and an official brewery was built in the castle courtyard. However, the further expansion of Zossen was not pursued in favor of the Spandau Citadel . In 1546, Elector Joachim II granted the place far-reaching rights and privileges. This included, for example, the right to cut construction and firewood on the electoral Zossenschen Heide, the duty-free purchase of wheat and grain, the construction of a bridge over the river in Ha (a) ck (with the right to levy taxes there) as well as sub-jurisdiction. Joachim II allowed the Zossenern to build a town hall and council scales on the market and enfeoffed them with the Church of St. Nicolai and Corporis Christi. Until 1583 there were four outlying works and a total of 26 additional villages. The district remained unchanged with 40 hooves, two of which for the pastor. There were seven four-hoofed animals who worked 21 to 30 acres of land, three three-hoofed animals between 19 and 21 acres, and one single-hoofed six acres. At that time 65 people lived in Zossen without Hufner. They owned gardens, fields and meadows and - so the documents report - one had two new meadows "on old Buckow". There were two windmillers, 42 hackers (Hecker) with gardens, 21 herders with meadows, some of whom also had the right to fish. The two fiefdoms of those from Glaubitz and the clerk Löckel were still handed down. The district included an old field to Schöneiche, one in the vineyard near the windmill and a garden "auff den Zeeßlingk". In the area of "Auffm alten Schöneiche", an administrative department with over 228 acres was created, the newly cleared "Hartth" with 25 acres with a sheep farm on which up to 500 animals could be kept. Bardeleben's share came to the Löckel family in 1580, who owned it until the Thirty Years' War in 1646.
17th century
The Glaubitz share went to a Berchelmann family in 1623, who only held it for ten years and then passed it on to a Müller family. From the time before the war in 1624 the “Amt und Städtlein” existed. Conquered by the Swedes in the Thirty Years' War in 1641, the border fortresses and the parish church of St. Katharinen were destroyed. In 1652 the mayor lived in the “little town” with his son and a farmhand, as well as 59 other citizens with five sons and five farmhands - therefore, compared to 1583, there was not a particularly sharp decline in population. In 1655 there were already 65 residents with gardens. Müller's share came to the Hertzberg family in Mittenwalde in 1650; Another feudal property was owned by the pastor Herold's family, who had taken over Löckel's share in 1646 and held it until 1679. There were seven four-hoofed horses, one of which had two farms, three three-hoofed and one single-hoofed. In the meantime, numerous craftsmen were resident in the village, including two butchers, two carpenters, two blacksmiths, a cooper, a linen weaver, a tailor, a furrier, to name just a few. The subdeacon owned a field near Wünsdorf, which was called "the kernels". In addition, there was the administrative office, which owned arable land beyond the old farm, known as the “Koterbude”. Shepherd justice had meanwhile been increased to 1,000 sheep; there was an herb garden and an orchard, as well as a 6.25 acre vineyard. In front of the city were three windmills, one of which was called a "high windmill" and was owned by the office, which it had passed on to a leaseholder. The front mill was a legacy mill owned by the citizen Lamprecht, the middle one owned by the mayor. In 1662 and 1671 there were devastating city fires in which almost all buildings were destroyed. A reconstruction took place under the direction of Johan Gregor Memhardt. He had a rectangular market place built, with the church at the northwest end. To the west was the palace complex, which was rebuilt after the fires and doubled in size. Mittenwalder Straße was created from the Kietz.
18th century
In 1719 Zossen had grown to the stately number of 116 houses and six barns. In 1745 there were a total of seven houses in front of the Berliner Tor, 13 wine master houses in front of the Mühlentor, 20 other houses, six stalls and three outdoor seats in the suburb of Kietz. Outside the city was the royal office and the Vorwerk, the sheep farm and the wine master's house, which belonged to the official vineyard. The three windmills, already mentioned in the 17th century, were still working. Zossen continued to grow and in 1750 there were already 127 houses, 46 barns, but also two desolate places; In 1770 there were 202 houses, 22 barns and a desert spot. In 1756 Frederick II had the Weinberg colony laid out for "foreign" settlers on the eastern outskirts. It was incorporated in 1809/1810.
19th century
In 1801 Zossen consisted of the city, the palace, the suburb in front of the Berliner Tor, the Mittenwald suburb and the Kietz residential area. There were a total of 227 houses, 48 barns and two desolate places. Urban real estate totaled 11,228 acres, of which around 3720 acres were in fields, 1905 acres in meadows and almost as much on pastures. The vineyards took up 84 acres; there was the Kleine Ellenbrucher wood with 96 acres. Five general and livestock markets were held annually on the market square. The statistics mentioned numerous craftsmen, for example 21 brewers, 21 turners, one dyer, five butchers, 30 linen weavers or 12 shoemakers. There were also two midwives, but also a miracle doctor and four city arms. The administration consisted of seven excisers, two actuaries , the mayor and a cantor, a town musician, three preachers and an organist. After the municipal reform in Prussia of 1808 and the associated formation of communities, the Kietz and Weinberge zu Zossen residential areas were incorporated into the municipality in 1809/1810. In 1840 there were 191 houses in Zossen; In addition, there were 20 houses in the Zossen colony. In 1857 the castle complex was transformed into a castle park. In 1858 34 farm owners worked in Zossen, employing 18 servants and maids. There were 173 part-time farmers with a further 106 male and female servants and 260 workers. Of the 207 estates, 61 were between 30 and 300 acres in size (4121 acres in total); however, there were also 80 properties less than five acres in size, which together made up just 200 acres. The supply of the residents was ensured by numerous craftsmen. There were six master bakers with five journeymen and two apprentices, ten master butchers with nine journeymen and five apprentices, 17 master shoemakers with six journeymen and four apprentices and many other trades. In the statistics, for example, two cleaning women with an assistant, a master basketry maker, but also 14 merchants, six traders, nine shopkeepers and a trucking shop with three horses appeared for the first time. There were four inns, a caterer, five innkeepers and six musicians. The statistics also showed an exterminator, 16 civil servants and 21 poor people. In 1860 there was the town with Kietz near Zossen, the Zossen colony and the Zossener vineyards. In addition to ten public buildings, there were now 226 residential buildings and stately 541 farm buildings - including three breweries, a distillation, a brick factory, an earthenware factory and four flour mills. A court house was built in the former castle. A memorial for those who fell in the wars of 1864 , 1866 and 1870/1871 was inaugurated on the Kietz in 1885 . The school on Kirchplatz was enlarged by an extension in 1906.
In 1875 Zossen was connected to the Berlin-Dresden Railway , as was the military railway that ran parallel to its route . On the latter, from 1901 to 1904 , the study society for electric rapid transit systems (St.ES), founded in 1899 between Zossen and Berlin-Marienfelde, carried out high-speed tests with electric locomotives and railcars. For this was not as common today on the track, but next to a three-phase - catenary established. An AEG railcar set the speed record for vehicles at that time with 210 km / h.
20th century
In 1900 Zossen had grown to 330 houses. Factories were built, including an artificial stone and cement factory as well as a lime kiln and a machine factory. Numerous surrounding communities were parish, including Dabendorf, Dergischow, Mellen, next Neuendorf, Saalow and Schöneiche. Zossen was the end point of one of the three southern Berlin suburban railways that ended at Potsdamer Bahnhof , more precisely at the Wannsee train station or the ring and suburban train station, to the west and east of the Potsdam train station. The line was not part of the “ Great Electrification” of Berlin's light rail and suburban railways in the second half of the 1920s. However, after it was merged with the north-western suburban line to Velten via Berlin-Tegel and Hennigsdorf to form a cross-city line through the north-south tunnel , which was continuously in operation in November 1939 , this line should also be connected through the construction of the north-south S-Bahn be electrified. First, however, the line in the Papestraße station (today Berlin-Südkreuz ) was broken, where passengers had to change between a train pulled by steam locomotives to an electric train. In 1940 the electric S-Bahn was started up to Rangsdorf . The electrified line, which was interrupted in 1961 by the construction of the wall, was only rebuilt as far as Blankenfelde in 1992 .
Since 1910, a large military area was created between Zossen and Wünsdorf. During the First World War , Muslim prisoners of war who had fought in the Russian, British and French armies were housed here in the so-called “ half-moon camp ” . These prisoners came from Central Asia, North and West Africa, and India. A wooden mosque was even built for them. They wanted to win over the prisoners for the German side through good treatment and propaganda influence. The long-term goal was also to initiate uprisings in the Muslim world against Germany's opponents of the war. However, these plans were then abandoned. Other French and Russian prisoners of war were housed in the vineyard camp of the former Weinberge residential area . In 1931 there were 480 residential buildings.
After the seizure of power by the Nazi Party in 1933 60 Social Democrats and Communists were arrested in Zossen and in the schoolyard on the church square of SA teams mistreated that there is an early concentration camps were built. A short time later, 32 of the arrested were transferred to the Oranienburg concentration camp , including Alfred Heintz ( KPD ) and Wilhelm Witt ( SPD ). The deacon of the evangelical community, Emil Phillip , was also arrested and transferred after his release. In 1934 the town hall was expanded.
In Wünsdorf , a district of Zossen in the 21st century, the Wehrmacht housed most of the Army High Command (OKH) in the “Maybach I” bunker from August 1939 to 1945 , right next to the “Maybach II” bunker and the “Zeppelin” bunker " , The military intelligence center with the postal code name " Amt 500 ". After the end of the Second World War , the facilities were taken over by the Red Army / Soviet Army , which in 1954 stationed the High Command of the Group of Soviet Armed Forces in Germany (GSSD) there. About 60,000 soldiers and civilians lived here; it was the largest garrison of the Red Army outside the Soviet Union. Since the withdrawal of the Soviet / Russian Western Group of Troops (WGT of the Russian Armed Forces) in 1994, the area has been used for civilian purposes.
After the end of the Second World War, 312 hectares of land were expropriated and 299 hectares of it was divided. 140 businesses were created, which together came to just 24 hectares. 20 other farms jointly cultivated 89 hectares, three farms more than 14 hectares (together 49 hectares). Twelve old farmers received an additional 31 hectares of land. A type III LPG was founded as early as 1952, initially with ten members, who cultivated 78 hectares of agricultural land.
In 1956 the city park was laid out; the VEB steel construction with 121 employees arose. There was VEB Mühlenwerke with 36 employees and a Zossen printing company with 22 employees. In 1958, three PGHs were added: iron and metal casting with 13 members, the electrical trade with ten members and the painting trade with 31 members. In 1960 there was a Type III LPG, which a year later had 161 members and managed 679 hectares. In 1967 it merged with LPG Type III Next Neuendorf. In 1973 the VEB Anlagenbau PKM Leipzig existed with the Zossen production area, the VEB Beverage Combine Potsdam, the Zernsdorf liquor factory with the Zossen division, the VEB Backwaren Zossen, the Zossen brewery and the Zossen printing company. There were also the PGHs iron and metal casting, building services, painting, stove setting and tiling, Baruth and radio and television. In agriculture, the GPG Betriebsteil Zossen as well as the state forestry enterprise Königs Wusterhausen with the Revierforsterei Zossen were active.
21st century
In November 2008, stumbling blocks were laid in front of the house at Berliner Straße 11 in the center of the city to commemorate the residents who were murdered during the time of National Socialism . A city worker was assaulted by a Holocaust denier . The Holocaust denier subsequently ran a shop in this house. In January 2010, the house of democracy used by the association “Zossen shows face”, which was active against right-wing extremist activities in the city, burned down due to arson by a youthful right-wing extremist, the remains were torn down a few weeks later. The perpetrator was acquitted for lack of maturity. Daniel T., who instigated the youth, was on December 1, 2011 a. a. Sentenced to 3 years and 8 months imprisonment for inciting arson and sedition .
