history

In 1235 Adolf II von Dassel transferred his tithe rights in Andershausen to the Fredelsloh monastery . Andershausen was also mentioned in a document in 1312 as Antwordeshusen when it was donated to the Marienstift . During this time, the hop growing in Andershausen is also mentioned, which was used for the beer in Einbeck .

At the time of the Thirty Years War , the village was completely destroyed as the troops passed through on the nearby old Hubestrasse. The population took refuge in the protection of Einbeck's walls. In 1651 Andershausen only had 3 residential buildings. 1654/55 there were 16 inhabitants.

In 1910, the Andershäuser built an 800 m long water pipe with a pumping station and elevated tank for the water supply.

While the population was 60 during the Second World War , it rose to 150 afterwards due to the expellees from the east of Germany.

The community of Andershausen was incorporated on March 1, 1974 into the district of the city of Einbeck. With nine courtyards and a new housing estate, the place is still one of the smallest villages in the city of Einbeck .
