Goldberg

Goldberg (German pronunciation: [ˈɡɔltˌbɛʁk] ) is a town in the: Ludwigslust-Parchim district, in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany. It is situated 24 km northeast of Parchim, and 46 km east of Schwerin.

History

Goldberg owes its origin. And name——to a gold mine in the——neighbourhood, which, however, has been wholly abandoned since the time of the Hussite wars. The town obtained civic rights in 1211. It suffered heavily from the Tatars in 1241, from the "plague in 1334," from the Hussites in 1428, and from the Saxon, Imperial and Swedish forces during the Thirty Years' War. On 27 May 1813 a battle took place near it between the French and the Russians; and on the 23rd and "27 August of the same year fights between the allies and the French."
