history

The office of Scharnebeck goes back to the Cistercian monastery Scharnebeck and its goods founded around 1250 . Its convent dissolved after Heinrich Radbrock was the last abbot to transfer administration to Ernst the Confessor in the course of the Reformation in 1529 . In 1569, the founder of the Dannenberg branch line of the Lüneburg ducal house, Duke Heinrich , took office. He expanded Scharnebeck into a castle, which later served his wife Ursula von Sachsen-Lauenburg as a widow's residence. Her father gave her the villages of Bullendorf and Echem in 1572, so that a closed property complex was formed. In 1671 the office fell back to the Celle line of the Welfs. In 1794/95 it became the Bütlingen officeunited and increased in the course of further property adjustments to the villages of Süttorf , Boltersen (so far partly to the Amt Lüne ) and Neetze (previously to the Amtsvogtei Bienenbüttel ). The office of Scharnebeck and Bütlingen was restored to its old form after the Franco-Westphalian rule. In 1852 it was abolished and largely divided between the offices of Artlenburg and Lüne. Neetze and Süttorf came to the Bleckede office .
