Spremberg (Lower Sorbian: Grodk) is a small town in the south of the state of Brandenburg, directly on the border with the state of Saxony. Spremberg was alternately owned by the House of Wettin, the Mark Brandenburg, the Kingdom of Bohemia and the Electorate of Saxony until 1815 by the Vienna Peace fell to Prussia. After 1952 it belonged to the district of Cottbus and since 1990 to the state of Brandenburg. Two branches of the Spree flow through the city center of Spremberg, so that the central city center area develops as a Spree island. Spremberg traditionally bears the nickname "Pearl of Lower Lusatia". At the end of the Second World War and the subsequent shortage economy in the GDR, this epithet appeared like a relic from times long past, because the destruction was too great and the damage that was still visible after years was too great. Since 1990 Spremberg has been developing again to what it has always been for its citizens despite all the inaccessibility, their pearl, Niederlausitz. Spremberg lies in a charming meadow landscape, but is also characterized by the fact that one of the largest opencast mines, the Welzow Süd opencast mine, is opening up west of the city due to the huge deposits of brown coal.

background

Spremberg was the geographical center of the German Empire from 1871 to 1920. The calculations for this went back to the geographer Heinrich Matzat, a senior teacher at the Spremberg high school. The basis of his calculation was that he determined the mean values ​​of the places furthest north, south, east and west of the former German Empire. He published the result in the Annual report of the higher education institutions of the year 1872.

There it said: “At the end of these last discussions, which specifically concern local history, I would like to add a note here that will be of some interest to the residents of our good town Spremberg. - The northernmost point of the newly created German Empire is near the village Gluttonous in the north of Memel, 55 degrees 52 minutes 56 seconds north latitude; the southernmost at the origin of the Stillach, a source river of the Iller in the Allgäu Alps, 47 degrees 15 minutes 48 seconds north latitude. The mean of this is 51 degrees 34 minutes 22 seconds. The easternmost point is near the village Schilleningken not far Schirwindt at the Scale, 40 degrees 32 minutes 25 seconds east longitude from Ferro; the westernmost near the village Isenbruch, four kilometers from the Meuse, 23 degrees 31 minutes 50 seconds east longitude of Ferro. The mean of this is 32 degrees 2 minutes 7.5 seconds. The geographical center of the German Reich is therefore the point which is below 51 degrees 34 minutes 22 seconds north latitude and 32 degrees 2 minutes 7.5 seconds east longitude. But this point is located on the territory of the city of Spremberg. You can get to it (as measured on the general staff map, if you walk almost exactly 500 paces (and two feet) from Dresdener Strasse down Gartenstrasse and the path that continues. "

Center of the German Empire 1871-1920

In July 1914, the head of the Prussian Land Survey issued a decree that the center of the German Empire fell on Mes table sheet 2547, i.e. the district of Spremberg.

In 1946, the inscription on the stone was destroyed by order of the then district administrator, who implemented Order No. 30 of the Allied Control Council to the letter.

The original stone was recovered in March 1988 during the preparation of road construction works and is exhibited in the local history museum in Spremberg. On January 19, 1991, a copy of the stone was set up just a few meters from the original location.

In the city of Spremberg there are no signs or boards that show the way to the center stone! 1 The stone is located at the intersection of Gartenstrasse / Mittelstrasse / Lassoberg. Coming from Cottbus, turn left about 100 meters after the Shell petrol station and reach the stone after about 300 meters. Coming from Graustein, Bad Muskau, take the 2nd exit at the roundabout after Spremberg Castle and follow the main road. When you reach the roundabout at the bus station, take the second exit in the direction of the city center and shortly afterwards drive through the now third roundabout, also at the second exit into Gartenstrasse. There you will reach the intersection Mittelstraße / Lassoberg after approx. 300 meters and you will see the center stone on the left.

Entrance portal Georgenbergfriedhof

The origins of the city park go back to the year 1828, when the city cemetery was built in front of the city gates. After storm damage in 1968, it was decided to remove the previously closed cemetery and to found the current city park on it. In the city park there are also several central memorials of the city, as well as a Soviet and German military cemetery. At the western tip of the city park one has of the so-called 1 bastion from, the former location of the memorial for the victims of the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871, a fantastic view of the roofs of the town of Spremberg.

According to the resolution of the city, this monument is to be rebuilt at the original location.

Immediately next to the Bismarck Tower, a lapidarium is being built in which historically valuable gravestones will be placed. The central point of this lapidarium is the fountain in the form of a flower, designed by a sculptor from Spremberg. Not far from the Lapidarium is also the singer's view, which was only rebuilt in 2014 by a local association and only from donations. Unfortunately, the lines of sight into the city are still not cleared even after months of completion.

Brown Spree

Navi checkpoint at the Saebisch fountain

For visitors to Spremberg, the sight of the Spree can arouse astonishment or even amazement, because the water of the Spree is extremely brown and ocher. The reasons for this are the minerals marcasite and pyrite stored in the soil layers, which now come into contact with air in the post-mining landscape. As a result, iron hydroxide and sulfate are formed, which are then washed out with the rising groundwater and "pushed" towards the Spree.

Navi checkpoint

On the occasion of the Brandenburg Day in July 2014, a calibrated control point for navigation systems by the state surveying and geographic base information Brandenburg (LGB) was installed in the ground on the Kleiner Markt in Spremberg, to the right of the community center, right next to the Saebisch Brunnen. This checkpoint is the second that was set in the state of Brandenburg.

shop

All well-known discounters are also represented, mostly in the extended city center. The largest shopping market in the city is in the southwest towards Hoyerswerda located on the B 156 1 Kaufland.

In order not to unnecessarily burden the cityscape with type houses of the respective retail group, a consensus with the respective users has gone over to either integrating large retail chains into existing old buildings that are worth preserving or then designing the buildings in such a way that the overall image of the city is not unnecessary The former are very successful examples of this 2 "Pappenfabrik Nitschke" on Berliner Strasse, corner of Zeppelinstrasse and the former. 3 "Vordruckverlag Spremberg" on Geschwister-Scholl-Strasse opposite the bus station.

kitchen

Spremberg does not have its own formative kitchen, but it does have some culinary specialties, which are due, among other things, to the proximity of the Spreewald.

Lusatian delicacies
Potatoes and cottage cheese with linseed oil
  • Quark with linseed oil, one of the regional delicacies, some of which are also offered in restaurants. It's worth asking! Quark is served normally, seasoned with salt and pepper and then mixed with a good portion of freshly squeezed linseed oil. You can add chopped onions and / or chopped chives to the quark. Boiled potatoes are served with it.
  • Grützwurst with sauerkraut should be tried when in Spremberg. Simply warm the grützwurst in water, serve sauerkraut as you like, with mashed potatoes (mashed potatoes) - done.

Als empfehlenswertes Restaurant sei hier, das etwas abseits der Innenstadt gelegene „Hotel am Berg” genannt. Man erreicht es zu Fuß in ca. 15 Min. vom Marktplatz aus in Richtung Norden über die Spreebrücke und dann nach rund 100 m nach links in die Bergstraße abzweigend.

Für den schnellen Hunger gibt es im Stadtgebiet zwei Pizzerias, verschiedene Döner undChinaschnellrestaurants. Hier ist es wie immer reine Geschmackssache und jeder sollte selbst seinen Lieblingsdöner oder dergleichen finden. Als Empfehlung sei hier auf jeden Fall der Stadt-Döner östlich des Busbahnhof genannt.

Alternativ ist die auf dem Schomberg, etwa 3 km vom Stadtzentrum entfernt, befindliche Pizzeria Tele Pizza zu empfehlen.

Für Radfahrfreunde, aber natürlich auch für jeden anderen Gast der gut und preiswert essen möchte, sei hier auch die Cantdorfer Mühle genannt. Hier wird noch gekocht wie bei Muttern und das alles zu sehr sehr moderaten Preisen. Über den Link kann auch der aktuelle Speiseplan abgerufen werden.

Seit Mai 2019 gibt es neben dem Kaufland Spremberg eine weitere gute Alternative für gutes Essen.

security

Spremberg wird immer wieder mal in den Medien mit Rechteextremismus in Verbindung gebracht. Seien sie versichert, hier lebt es sich genauso sicher wie in jeder anderen Kleinstadt in Deutschland auch.

Problematisch erweist sich zunehmend, nach dem Wegfall der Grenzkontrollen, die Grenznähe zu Polen, so das Eigentumsdelikte und Fahrzeugdiebstähle besorgniserregende Zahlen annehmen. Als Besucher sollten sie daher, vor allem nachts, auf eine sichere Parkmöglichkeit für ihr Fahrzeug achten.

  • 2  Polizeirevier, Kantstraße 12, 03130 Spremberg (ca. 150 Meter südlich des Marktplatzes). Tel.: 49 (0)3563 560. Spremberg besitzt nach der Polizeireform nur noch eine Polizeiwache. Bei Fahrzeugdiebstählen ist es von Vorteil sich auch sofort mit dem Bundespolizei in Verbindung setzen, die man unter der kostenlosen Telefonnummer 49 0800 6 888 000 erreicht.

trips

  • Einen ganz besonderen Ausflug kann man in das nah gelegene Kraftwerk Schwarze Pumpe unternehmen. Hier kann man fast Hautnah erleben, wie aus Kohle Strom „gemacht“ wird. Termine sind Montag - Freitag von 09:00 Uhr bis 16:00 Uhr, an diesen Tagen finden Führungen durch das Kraftwerk nur für Gruppen und nach telefonischer Anmeldung!!!(03564 35 3317) statt, ohne Voranmeldung kann an diesen Tagen NUR das Infozentrum im Hauptgebäude besucht werden! An Samstagen finden Führungen ohne vorherige Anmeldung jeweils um 10:00 Uhr, 12:00 Uhr und 14:00 Uhr für Gruppen aber auch Einzelpersonen statt. Achtung auf Grund der Corona-Pandemie finden seit dem 10. März 2020, bis auf weiteres, keine Besucherführungen statt. Ab dem 01. August 2020 ist es möglich, das Informationszentrum des Kraftwerkes wieder zu besuchen. Hier gilt eine beschränkte Personalzahl von max. 10 Personen im Informationszentrum selbst.
  • Ebenfalls nicht an jeder Ecke zu finden, sind Ausflüge in einen aktiven Braunkohletagebau. Spremberg als Energieregion lebt mit und von der Braunkohle. Ausflüge buchen kann man über excursio im nah gelegenen Welzow. Auf der Webseite sind alle aktuell statt findenden Ausflüge übersichtlich aufgelistet. Sehr zu empfehlen!
  • Wer die Schokoladenseite der Lausitz erleben möchte, sollte einen Besuch bei der Confiserie Felicitas im nahen Hornow einplanen. Geöffnet Montag bis Sonnabend 08:00 Uhr bis 18:00 Uhr, Sonntag von 14:00 Uhr bis 18:00 Uhr.
  • Ein ganz besonderes Erlebnis zur Blütezeit Ende Mai/Anfang Juni bietet der Azaleen- und Rhododendronpark Kromlau (19 km, östlich, B 156 bis Graustein, dann L 87 und K 8478) an der landschaftlich reizvollsten Route nach Bad Muskau kurz hinter Schleife gelegen.
  • Bad Muskau (26 km östlich, B 156) - Fürst-Pückler-Park; Neißebrücke nach Polen.
  • cottbus (23 km nördlich, B 97) - die größte Stadt in der Niederlausitz liegt zwischen Spreewald, Lausitzer Grenzwall und Lieberoser Heide.
  • Hoyerswerda (22 km südwestlich, B 97) - auf den ersten Blick steht Hoyerswerda, die „zweite sozialistische Stadt der DDR“, für eher eintönige Architektur, aber es gibt auch ein Alt-Hoyerswerda und in der Umgebung das Lausitzer Seengebiet.
  • Senftenberg (32 km westlich, Senftenberger Straße nach Lieske) - Schloss mit Museum; Senftenberger See.
  • Weißwasser (22 km südöstlich, B 156 bis Graustein, dort rechts ab) - wie Hoyerswerda hauptsächlich durch die Braunkohle groß gewordene Stadt; Glasmuseum.
