history



The place in the Deister-Süntel valley was first mentioned between 856 and 869 as "Munimeri". The healing power of the brine, sulfur and bitter springs was known early on. Monks may have come from Minden on foot because of the brine springs , at least almost 50 km. This could give rise to the name "Mindener Pay", which over time could have developed into "Mündener Pay". The actual origin of the name is uncertain. Certainly Münder appears in a document from Emperor Conrad II in 1033 as "Munnere". Salt production , which had existed since 1033, was not stopped until 1924. A Cistercian monastery was founded in Loccum in 1306 in what is now Hamelspringe .
During the Hildesheim collegiate feud from 1519 to 1523 and in the Thirty Years' War , the city was completely destroyed. In the Klein Süntel district, the Klein Süntel glassworks produced hollow glass and other glass products with interruptions between the 17th and 19th centuries . In 1872 Münder got a railway connection to the network of the Hanover-Altenbeken Railway Company .
The history of the Jews in Bad Münder begins around 1700 when protective Jews were first mentioned in a document. The Jewish cemetery of the community is documented for the first time in 1782; from 1835 there was a synagogue in the village . In the 19th century around 50 people of Jewish faith lived in the village. After that, their number fell to less than 10 people in the 1930s at the time of National Socialism . Jewish citizens were deported from Bad Münder in 1942. At least 18 people who were born or lived in Bad Münder were victims of the Holocaust .
In 1936 Münder received the status of a spa town, so that Münder became Bad Münder and today it bears the title “State-approved mineral spring spa”. The health resort has a charming old town with historic half-timbered houses and sandstone buildings from the Weser Renaissance . The city lives today, apart from the glass and furniture industry , mainly from health care and tourism .
On September 9, 2002, 40,000 liters of the chemical epichlorohydrin were released in a train accident .
