Glien-Löwenbergischer Kreis-Wikipedia

The Glien-Löwenberg Circle (also Glien- und Löwenberg district or District of Glien-Löwenberg ) was a circle of the middle mark in the Mark Brandenburg. In the 18th century, it initially emerged as a sub -circle of the Havelland circle. In 1770 he became an independent circle and existed until 1817. The city of Kremmen was based.

The Glien-Löwenberg district included the Glien and the Löwenberg country, which were separated by the Ruppiner Canal and its continuation in the Kremmener Lake in 1787. After Bratring (1805) he took an area of ​​11.5 square miles, which corresponds to about 652.5 km² after the miles used at that time. Of these, 4 square miles (226.95 km²) were covered by Löwenberg and the remaining 7.5 square miles (425.5 km²). In 1750 the (sub) circle had 10,255 inhabitants, in 1800 there were 13,846 inhabitants.

The Glien-Löwenberg district bordered in the north to the Ruppins and the Uckermärkische Kreis, in the east to the Uckermark and the low-bare circle, in the south to the Havelländische Kreis and in the west to the Havelland and Ruppin district. Between Oranienburg and Heiligensee, the Oberhavel formed the natural border to the low -bare circle.

The Glien-Löwenberg district was created from the connection of the Glien and the Löwenberg country, which originally did not form a unity. While Glien was traditionally attributed to the Havelland, this was not the case with the Löwenberg state. The margraves of Brandenburg exchanged their property in the state of Löwenberg in 1270 with the bishops of Brandenburg against an area around Königsberg in the Neumark. The marketing property with Löwenberg Castle had previously identified most of the state of Löwenberg. The bishops of Brandenburg subsequently increased their property there, so that the state of Löwenberg completely belonged to them in the middle of the 14th century. At that time, however, parts of the state of Löwenberg had already come to the bishops on after -vassals. In 1460, Bishop Dietrich von Stechow finally sold the state of Löwenberg to Hans von Bredow as hereditary fiefs for 4000 Rhenish gold guilders.

With the training of the district administration in the Kurmark in the 16th century, the area of ​​Glien and the State of Löwenberg, i.e. the area of ​​the later Glien-Löwenberg district, was attributed to the Havelländische Kreis. In the 17th century, the lower circle of the Glien-Löwenberg circle was gradually formed within the Havelland circle. In the following years, this sub -circle became more and more independent. But it wasn’t until 1770 that the circle also received the status of a completely independent circle.

In 1817 the Glien-Löwenberg district was resolved. Most of the Havelländische Kreis was united with part of the Havelland district to form the Easthavelland district. The remaining parts came to the districts of Templin (Badingen, Easter, Hellberge, Mahnhorst, Mildenberg, Zabelsdorf, Liebenberg, Hertefeld-Luisenhof and Bergsdorf), Ruppin (Hoppenrade, Moncaprice, Grüneberg, Löwenberg, Neuendorf, Schleuen, Teschendorf, Neuhof and Neukammer) and Niederbarnim (Germendorf).
