1 189 there are castles, markets and St. Clemens church, where the priest is German.
1200 or so, this area is too crowded because of population growth, so German immigrants who believe in Christianity chose the highland on the other side adjacent to this riverside lowland, and established a new area according to the model of Lubeck, which became the first urban core in the history of Rostock, and its representative buildings were the old market and St. Peter's Church (probably just a Xiao Mu Church at that time).
Rostock quickly developed into the core city of mecklenburg. 12 14 Danish king valdemar ii seized the enfeoffment right of mecklenburg from the holy Roman emperor Frederick II. 12 18, the new area around St. Peter's Cathedral was confirmed by history books for the first time: in an official document signed on June 24, 12 18, the Marquis of mecklenburg and Lord Heinrich Bolvin I of Rostock recognized Rostock's Lubeck-style city right, and this date is now considered as the actual city. In the following decades, the urban area continued to expand. The downtown area where the new market and St. Mary's Church were located was built in 1232, and the new town where the Hubu market and St. jacoby's Church used to be built was built in 1252.
125 1 year, Danish king Abel granted Rostock the same trade privileges as previously granted to Lubeck. 1252, before and after the completion of the new urban area, Rostock's right to the city was once again recognized, and tariff exemption was approved, which was also the basis for the city's strength.
Several urban areas of Rostock were formally merged in 1265, and the new market became the center of the city, and the city walls were built to strengthen the defense. The area inside the city wall is about one square kilometer, which is a traditional urban area, that is, the ancient city area. It was not until the 19th century that the urban area expanded beyond the city walls.
The Hanseatic tradition in Rostock began at 1283. In, Lubeck, Wisma, Rostock, Stralsund, glaive Sward, Stetin, Deming and Ancram and several Marquis concluded the Permanent Peace Treaty of Rostock, and the Wende Business District of Hanseatic League was established. 1323, Rostock bought the small fishing village of Vanodmingde from the Danes and got the sea. 1325 and 1358, Rostock successively obtained the right to coin money and completed the judicial power, and became a pivotal member of the Hanseatic League. The event that can prove the important position of the city is: 14 19 Rostock University, one of the oldest universities in northern Europe, was established here with the permission of Pope Pope Martin V.
Rostock was a member of the Hanseatic League before the last Hanseatic Congress in 1669, and the decline of the Hanseatic League caused by the governors' strengthening control over the city was also reflected in Rostock's history. 1484, pope innocent viii declared St. jacoby's church as a Catholic institution in an edict, which was protested by some Rostocks, which triggered a church dispute from 1486 to 149 1. Duke Schwelien punished the city for this, raised taxes and recruited soldiers from the citizens to enrich mecklenburg's army. 1487, the Latzburg Catholicism excommunicated Rostock and the university moved to Lubeck. The following year, the Pope allowed the university to return to Rostock.
1520 or so, Martin Luther's religious reform theory was introduced into Rostock, and the reform was implemented relatively quickly. 153 1 year, the city Council decided to apply Luther's theory to religious activities.
1565, there was another battle for the Lord, which had a far-reaching impact. The cause of the dispute is related to the beer shares in favor of the duke. During the dispute, Rostock refused to formally swear allegiance to Duke John Albrecht I, so the Duke led 500 cavalry to question him and ordered the demolition of Stein Gate, part of the city wall and a defensive tower, so as to prepare stones for him to build a fortress to control the city. 1573, the first Rostock succession treaty was signed, which guaranteed the hereditary rule and supreme jurisdiction of the lords over the city for hundreds of years and finally calmed the storm. The citizens demolished the fort in the early spring of the following year, and the facilities previously demolished by the Duke were rebuilt between 1575 and 1577. The new Steinmen has a Dutch Renaissance style. In Stein Gate, we can see a Latin motto "Sitit orite concordia et publica felicitas", which means "all living things in the city are happy", vaguely expressing the dislike of the duke. 1584 Rostock's second succession treaty made the city give up some privileges it used to enjoy. Rostock tried to become the central municipality of the holy Roman Empire like Lubeck, but the Treaty of Succession made this wish out of reach.
During the thirty years' war that led to the disintegration of Hanseatic League, Rostock changed hands several times, plundered many times, suffered hardships and disputes. King gustav adolf of Sweden took control of Mingde in Vanod and imposed tariffs. Wallenstein, a party of the Holy Roman Empire, built fortifications in Rostock as a base for its conquest of Pomerania, but in 163 1, the city fell into the hands of the Swedes. The war left the city in financial difficulties, and the fire of 1677 completely lost its political and economic importance. The urban population decreased from 14800 in 594 to 5000 in 1677. The Northern War and the Seven-Year War made the city worse. The Duke of mecklenburg proposed a new succession treaty in 1755 and 1788 to ensure the control of the city.
Rostock began a slow revival at the end of the eighteenth century. Mecklenburg was occupied by the French in 1806. Rostock must obey the terms of the mainland blockade order, and citizens must also bear the obligation to serve in Napoleon's army. However, there is a Rostock who is on the side of the anti-French alliance. This is Gebhard Leberecht von Blü cher, Prussian Field Marshal, born in Ito Winkle, Rostock. In the Battle of Waterloo, Pu Jun led by blucher was the decisive force to defeat Napoleon.
/kloc-in the 0/9th century, comprehensive industrialization brought new wealth to the city, which was reflected in the building facilities that appeared in this period. Around 1830, the Rostocks built a villa area (that is, the front area of Stan) and a workers' area (that is, the front area of Kolopelin) outside the city. During the same period, Varnod Mingdeye developed into the most important seaside sanatorium in Germany.
1852, the first German propeller steam ship was successfully built in Rostock. 1870, the new main building of the university was put into use. 189 1 year, Neptune Shipbuilding Machinery Co., Ltd. was established, which is also the first large-scale industrial enterprise in mecklenburg. The development of other industrial facilities such as Friedrich Witt chemical plant, agricultural machinery manufacturing, construction industry and administrative and banking institutions also promoted the rise of cities.
Rapid industrialization has also produced some negative effects. During the First World War, the poor workers who were dissatisfied with the status quo demanded a truce and eradicated the semi-feudal system in mecklenburg. The participation of Rostocks contributed to the democratization of mecklenburg and the end of Dagong rule. The primary content of Rostock's first basic law of democracy is to abolish the 1788 succession treaty that hinders the free development of the city.
In the 1920s, cities continued to industrialize. 1922, Ernst Heinckel's aircraft factory was established in Rostock. 1933 became a key German military enterprise. 1939, the world's first turbojet engine-Heinckel He 178 was successfully developed here. The urban population increased from 44,000 in 1890 to 12 1000/939.
During World War II, Rostock's military enterprises attracted allied bombing of the city. 1942, the British air force attacked the facilities and other targets of Heinckel Company and Arado Company. A submarine factory and two aircraft factories were destroyed, and a large area of the city was also destroyed. 1 945 may1day, the Soviet red army occupied rostock. The surplus equipment of the aircraft factory was shipped to the Soviet Union as compensation. Neptune Shipyard was rebuilt, and soon Valnord Shipyard was built in Valnord Mingde. In the early post-war period, the profits of the two shipyards were used to pay reparations.
1950, the urban population returned to the pre-war level. In the process of urban reconstruction, many buildings, such as city theater, cannot be saved, while some buildings that can be saved, such as St. jacoby's Church, are demolished according to the new urban planning. 1953, the first post-war Stalin-style new building area was built in Reuteshagen.
From 65438 to 0952, the coastal area of the German Democratic Republic was planned as the Rostock area, and Rostock became the capital. A few years later, it developed into the shipbuilding and shipping center of the German Democratic Republic. Outside the shipyard, diesel engine factory, fishery joint venture company and German shipping company were established. In the early post-war period, there was no large seaport in the German Democratic Republic, so from 1957 to 1960, an ocean port was built in Rostock, higher education in navigation was developed, and shipbuilding departments were established in universities. Vande Mingde Shipbuilding Technical College and Worcester Maritime College merged to run a school. Economic prosperity attracted a large number of new immigrants, and the urban population exceeded 250,000 in 1988.
1990 after the reunification of Germany, the city appearance and infrastructure of Rostock, Germany have been improved. Some monuments have been restored, such as the reconstruction of the top of St. Peter's church. In 2000, the urban population dropped to about 200,000, and then stabilized. In recent years, Rostock has devoted himself to developing economy and international exchanges. It hosted the World Horticultural Exposition in 2003 and jointly bid for the 20 12 Olympic Games with Leipzig. The Hanseatic Sailing Festival is also an important activity for the city to face the international community.
