The Winzenburg office was a historical administrative area of ​​the Principality of Hildesheim and the Kingdom of Hanover .

history

The office goes back to the Winzenburg castle of the same name, which was built in Franconian times southeast of Alfeld (Leine) , which was further expanded by the Counts of Winzenburg around 1100. After the family died out, it fell to the Hildesheim Monastery and was administered by Hildesheim ministerials as bailiffs (occupied since 1283) or bailiffs.

A larger office developed around the castle, the district of which comprised four Goen (Hasekenhäuser Go, Gehlenberger Go, Niedere Go, Alfeldische Go) and included several aristocratic courts. After the Winzenburg had lost the rank of an episcopal main castle in the 14th century, the office was repeatedly pledged. In the Hildesheim collegiate feud , it was destroyed in 1522 and fell into disrepair. Their demolition material was used for the construction of the commercial yard in Hasekenhusen, to which the office and name Winzenburg passed.

As part of the Great Monastery, the Winzenburg office in Quedlinburger Rezess fell to the Principality of Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel in 1523 . In 1643 it was returned to the Hildesheim Monastery. In 1690 the lower Börde was separated and placed under the Gronau office . In 1802 the entire office with the bishopric fell to Prussia , in 1807 to the Kingdom of Westphalia . The old official structures were dissolved under Westphalian rule. Under the rule of Hanover they were restored in 1815, but the Winzenburg office was combined with the Bilderlahe office in 1828 . The Alfeld (Leine) office was later formed from part of the former administrative area .
