Lübben (Spreewald) (Template:Lang-dsb) is a town of 14,000 people, capital of the Dahme-Spreewald district in the Lower Lusatia region of Brandenburg, Germany.
Administrative structure
Districts of the town are:
- Lübben Stadt (Lower Sorbian: Lubin město)
- Hartmannsdorf (Hartmanojce)
- Lubolz (Lubolc)
- Groß Lubolz (Wjelike Lubolce)
- Klein Lubolz (Małe Lubolce)
- Neuendorf (Nowa Wjas)
- Radensdorf (Radom; Radowašojce)
- Steinkirchen (Kamjena)
- Treppendorf (Ranchow)
History
The castle of Lubin in the March of Lusatia was first mentioned in an 1150 register of Nienburg Abbey and had received town privileges according to Magdeburg law by 1220. From 1301 the town in the centre of the Spreewald floodplain was in the possession of the monks of Dobrilugk Abbey, who sold it to Duke Rudolph I of Saxe-Wittenberg in 1329. After several conflicts with the Wittelsbach margraves of Brandenburg the March of Lusatia was finally acquired by Emperor Charles IV of Luxembourg in 1367 who incorporated Lübben into the Kingdom of Bohemia. In the 15th century Lübben became the seat of the Bohemian Vogt administrator and the provincial diet (Landtag) of Lower Lusatia.
In 1526 the House of Habsburg inherited the Bohemian kingdom including Lusatia, which in 1623 Ferdinand II of Habsburg had to give in pawn to Elector John George I of Saxony. The Saxon Electorate finally acquired Lübben by signing the 1635 Peace of Prague. After the Napoleonic Wars it again fell to the Prussian province of Brandenburg by the final act of the 1815 Congress of Vienna.
During World War II, Lübben was taken by Soviet troops of the 3rd Guards Army on 27 April 1945.
