Blesewitz is a municipality in the Vorpommern-Greifswald district, in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany.

History

From 1648 to 1720, Blesewitz was part of Swedish Pomerania. From 1720 to 1945, it was part of the Prussian Province of Pomerania, from 1945 to 1952 of the State of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, from 1952 to 1990 of the Bezirk Neubrandenburg of East Germany and since 1990 again of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

Editorial summary

Begin with the source’s own compact description: “Blesewitz” is municipality of Germany. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through Blesewitz, municipality and Germany, not as a finished interpretation.

Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1648, 1720, 1945, 1952—that can be checked directly. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “municipality of Germany” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 9, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q668174. VIAF identifies the subject as 134536101. Authority coordinates are 53.817, 13.617. 3 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1648, 1720, 1945 and 1952.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
