Altenhagen I ( Altenhagen Eins ) is a village in southern Lower Saxony and part of the town of Springe .

geography

Altenhagen I is located on the northern slope of the Nesselberg between the border of this forest and nature reserve and the valley floor sloping from the Deisterpforte . It belongs as the westernmost district of the city of Springe , whose core city is about 5 km northeast beyond the Deisterpforte. The southern and western borders of Altenhagen I coincide with the outer border of the Hanover region and the Hameln-Pyrmont district.

The village is located on the road connection between Hanover and Hameln , which was expanded as a road in the 18th century and is now the federal road 217 . In the vicinity of the village there is another historic milestone on the road that puts the distance to Hanover at 3 miles . The railway line built later does not touch Altenhagen I, but runs further north via Bad Münder .

The Sedemünder Mühlbach flows through the valley from the Deisterpforte to the southwest, which flows into the Hamel in the neighboring village of Hachmühlen .

To the northwest of Altenhagen I, in the middle of a basin surrounded by Deister , Kleinem Deister , Nesselberg and Süntel , lies the 230 m high Katzberg .

history

The first documentary mention can be found in the feudal register of Bishop Gottfried von Minden from 1304–1324.

In 1974 Altenhagen I was incorporated into the town of Springe.

The Roman number I in the place name goes back to the fact that the district of Springe (1885–1974) included a second Altenhagen. The Roman numerals I and II have been added to the name for clear distinction. After the district reform , in which the Springe district was dissolved on March 1, 1974 and the Altenhagen I community was incorporated into the town of Springe, the addition was retained in both cases. Altenhagen II today belongs to the municipality of Messenkamp .

politics

Local mayor has been Kai Dettmer (Altenhagen I voter community) since the local elections in 2011 .

Culture and sights

Furtwängler organ

Protestant church

In the Evangelical Lutheran Church of St. Vincenz in Altenhagen I, built by consistorial master builder Friedrich August Ludwig Hellner from Hanover, as a simple hall with a three-sided chancel and a compact west tower, there is the oldest organ by Elz organ builder Philipp Furtwängler that has been preserved almost unchanged .

The planning for the instrument began in October 1842, in 1844 it was completed and approved by the Hanoverian palace organist Heinrich Friedrich Enckhausen. A renovation planned in 1884 was not carried out. In 1917 the prospect pipes were given up for war purposes and later replaced. The rest of the work has been preserved in its original condition and was carefully restored in 1954. The instrument is a listed building .

Village culture heritage

Village culture heritage

After the last retail store in the village was closed, a cooperative was formed with the aim of buying up the centrally located, no longer used post office building and turning it into a cultural meeting place for the entire village through voluntary work. From 2013 onwards, the village cultural heritage was created with a café, village shop and culture bar. Operations started on September 20, 2014.

Surroundings

Altenhagen is located directly west of the Springe Saupark and offers numerous hiking and cycling trails.

Economy and Infrastructure

The federal road 217 leads directly past Altenhagen I. There is a bus connection to the core town of Springe, 5 km away.

In the Nesselberg above Altenhagen I, the high-quality, light-colored Nesselberg sandstone was extracted, which was used for the construction of the opera house and the New Town Hall in Hanover and for the Reichstag building in Berlin . The quarries, the largest of which was the White Quarry , were closed decades ago and have since been renatured .
