BURG

This article appears in Volume V04, Page 812 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BUN-CAL
BURG , a town of Germany, in Prussian
Saxony
 , on the river Ihle, and the railway from Berlin to
Magdeburg
 , 14 M. N.E. of the latter. Pop. (1900) 22,432. It is noted for its
cloth
  manufactures and boot-making, which afford employment to a
great
 
part
  of its
population
 . The town belonged originally to the lordship of Querfurt, passed with this into the possession of the archbishops of
Magdeburg
  in 1496, and was ceded in 1635 with other portions of the Magdeburg territories to
Saxony
 ; in 1687 it was ceded to Brandenburg. It owes its prosperity to the, large influx of industrious
French
 ,
Palatinate
  and Walloon refugees, which took place about the end of the 17th
century
 .
