Name [ Edit | Edit the source text ]
The name of the Slavic village Human being originated from an old Polabian personal name and means something like Peace or Quiet . The name changed only slightly in Mirowe or Myrow (e).
middle Ages [ Edit | Edit the source text ]
The story as a German place goes back to a branch of the Order of St. John, which Prince Heinrich Borwin II had given 60 hooves in the “Land Turne” (area southwest of the Müritz). A village of Mirow is already mentioned in the confirmation of this foundation by Borwin’s sons. At the latest in 1242, the order branch on the banks of the lake developed into a commander. In the following centuries, the property of the order continued to grow.
From 1500 to 1900 [ Edit | Edit the source text ]
Under persistent clashes with the men’s masters of the Order of St. John in Sonnenburg, the Mecklenburg dukes gained greater influence on the occupation of the coming and the appointment of commods in the course of the 16th century. After the last Mirower commitment died in 1541, the commander was only managed by Protestant administrators, who mostly came from the Mecklenburg Duke. In 1648 the commander was finally secularized and was assigned to the (partial) Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin as compensation for other areas of territorial losses. The Hamburg comparison Mirow brought Mecklenburg-Strelitz to the (partial) duchy of Mecklenburg-Strelitz in 1701. Large parts of the Order of the Order’s Order of the Order had now been converted into a Ducal Mecklenburg Administrative Office based in Mirow.
Since the transition of the Mirow order to the Ducal House of Mecklenburg at the end of the 16th century, the commander on the castle island of Mirow has been used as a princely place of residence. The domanial office Mirow fell to the ducal widow’s pension functions or apanized secondary lines of the Mecklenburg Princely House. Duke Johann Georg, for example, a post -born son Adolf Friedrich I received Mirow in the second half of the 17th century as an Apanage. According to Joachim Bormann, a new castle, today’s Upper Castle, was built according to Joachim Bormann plans. Contrary to the widespread opinion, the major fire from 1742 destroyed the last building complex of the commander, but not the castle. This was expanded from 1748 to the 1760s and partially re -equipped. [5] The upper castle has been extensively restored in recent years and handed over to the public on June 7, 2014 as a museum. [6]
While the Mirower Hof had developed into an important spiritual-intellectual center of Mecklenburg-Strelitz in the 1740s, with the change of government in 1752/53, the princely farm in Mirow gradually stopped and finally found the Duchy Elisabeth Albertine in 1761 End. Since then, Mirow has led a still, dreamy existence and only awakened for a short time when a member of the Strelitz ruling house had died and was buried in 1704 to the Church.
In the co -lock built outside the old castle district from 1735 to 1737 Lower castle ), which had initially remained unfinished after conversions in the 1760s, the Grand Ducal Teacher Seminar in Mecklenburg-Strelitz was opened in 1820, which was trained almost 800 elementary school teachers until the 1920s.
Towards the end of the 18th century, Jews were located in the village. Around 1800 they built a Jewish cemetery (on Lärzer Straße, opposite house No. 5), which was completely destroyed in the period of National Socialism. A memorial stone was set there during the GDR period.
Recess [ Edit | Edit the source text ]
The place Mirow itself kept the status of a market stain, a village with certain special privileges, but without municipal self -government. Therefore, typical urban buildings from ancient times are also missing in Mirow, such as a spacious marketplace or a representative town hall. Only after the monarchy ended when the parish type was abolished did Mirow received city rights in 1919. The city center has been partially renovated as part of urban development since 1991.
From 1952 to 1994 Mirow belonged to the Neustrelitz district (until 1990 in the GDR district of Neubrandenburg, then in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania). In 1994 the city was incorporated into the district of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. It has been in the Mecklenburg Lake District district since the 2011 district regional reform.
