Bad Salzdetfurth from the air

Bad Salzdetfurth is a small town with around 13,500 inhabitants in the Hildesheim district in southern Lower Saxony . The city is a regionally important recreational, health resort, clinic and industrial location. It is officially recognized as a saltwater and mud spa .

Bad Salzdetfurth's history is closely linked to the extraction of rock and potash . The first written mention of the city can be traced back to the year 1194. The first inhabitants of the city were in all probability salt boilers. The Kaliwerke Salzdetfurth AG , the oldest predecessor company of today's K + S Aktiengesellschaft , had from 1889 to 1971 their headquarters in Bad Salzdetfurth. Potash mining, which is important for the local economy, was discontinued in 1992. The population has been falling since 2001.

The urban area in its current boundaries was created in 1974 through the merger with twelve surrounding communities.

Bad Salzdetfurth is about eleven kilometers south of Hildesheim . The closest major cities are Salzgitter (about 24 km northeast), Hanover (39 km north) and Braunschweig (about 42 km northeast).

history

First settlement, city foundation and Middle Ages

The “Soltmänneken” at St. George's Church: Representation of a jury from the salt pan guild

It is likely that the first people lived in the area of ​​today's Bad Salzdetfurth during the warm periods of the last cold period . The land north and south of the Lamme Gorge is seen as the original cell of the city. North of the Lamme Gorge, an old trade route crossed the river in a north-south direction in a ford . A small rural settlement with the name Detfurth (also: Detvorde, Thietforde or Detforde, from "Det" or "Thiet", the people or the people) arose here even before Christianization . The favorable traffic situation ensured that a first church was built here in the 9th century, which received the rank of archdeaconate church . South of the Lamme Gorge, the beginnings of the districts of Bodenburg and Wehrstedt go back to the 9th and 10th centuries.

It is not known when and by whom Bad Salzdetfurth was founded. Local legend reports that a Knight von Steinberg got lost in his vast forest areas while hunting a stag. Plagued by thirst, he drank from a spring that he found at the foot of the lamb. Instead of fresh fresh water, however, salty water (brine) gushed out. After a moment's discomfort, the knight realized the wealth that this discovery could bring to him. At the time, table salt was a sought-after and valuable commodity. The knight had salt boilers come, who cleared the forest and built boiling pans with salt pans.

The resulting village was initially viewed as part of the existing Detfurth village and referred to as "dat Solt to Detforde". The only historical evidence of this legend is that the von Steinberg family had rich estates in the Hildesheimer Land.

Bad Salzdetfurth was first mentioned in a document by Bishop Hartbert von Hildesheim , who testified in 1214 that Konrad von Steinberg sold four pans to the Lamspringe Benedictine monastery in 1194, along with the forest belonging to it, at the already existing village of “Thietforde” for 25 marks.

The first inhabitants of Bad Salzdetfurth were probably salt boilers. These extracted the salt in specially built salt boiling huts or pans by heating the brine. The abundant wood in the area was used as fuel. The salt boilers were initially serfs of the Lords of Steinberg and only gained more freedom towards the end of the 14th century. In 1360 they founded the “Salt Pans Guild” , which still exists today , whose members were able to call almost all the salt pans their own by 1400.

Bad Salzdetfurth developed into a locally important trading and transshipment center. The location on the old Frankfurter Heerstraße, an important trade route that connected northern and southern Germany and today roughly corresponds to the course of Bundesstraße 243 , had a beneficial effect . The salt carriers and carters brought their goods and a. to Hanover, Göttingen and Braunschweig.

Early modern age

The 17th century was overshadowed mainly by the two major fire disasters in 1605 and 1695, which destroyed almost all houses in the local area. Much of today's old town and St. George's Church were built as part of the subsequent reconstruction.

Since the existing fuel was no longer sufficient due to the constant increase in salt production, it was decided in 1746 to build the first graduation tower .

In 1794, Bad Salzdetfurth was hit again by a major fire that destroyed a large part of the rear buildings in Oberstraße.

In 1814 Bad Salzdetfurth was also hit by a destructive flood.

19th century

After the end of the Napoleonic Wars , salt sales began to stagnate. The decisive factor here were initially trade barriers resulting from tax and customs disputes between the Kingdom of Hanover and the newly founded Duchy of Braunschweig .

After the Kingdom of Hanover was annexed by Prussia in 1866 , sales of Bad Salzdetfurth salt plummeted. Bad Salzdetfurth's rather unfavorable transport connections, the rising wood prices, the levied salt tax and the temporarily neglected investments led to a lack of competitiveness, especially compared to the salt works in Lüneburg and Staßfurt . At the same time, as a result of the development of mining salt production and the abolition of the Prussian salt monopoly in 1868, the supply available on the market increased.

With the construction of the first brine bathhouse, the city tried to develop alternative sources of income. On May 28, 1857, the birthday of the then King of Hanover Georg V , the spa business was opened in Bad Salzdetfurth. The number of spa guests grew steadily in the following decades. In the 1880s, around 3,000 spa guests were received annually. Since the guest accommodation in private houses was no longer sufficient, a lodging house, the Gildehaus, was built in 1888.

Industrial potash mining reached Bad Salzdetfurth in the last decade of the 19th century. In 1891 the first "salt extraction contract" was signed between the Goslar corporation for mining and deep drilling and the landowners in Bad Salzdetfurth. In return for compensation, this allowed the mining of the land. In 1893 the first potash deposit was discovered while drilling below the “Welfenhöhe” at a depth of about 630 meters and in 1896 the first sinking work finally started. In 1900, the headquarters of the stock corporation for mining and deep drilling in Goslar was relocated to Bad Salzdetfurth and the company was renamed "Kaliwerke Salzdetfurth AG" . Potash mining grew steadily. In 1907 a second shaft was sunk a little further south of the existing shaft, and a third in 1914.

The rapid growth of the potash industry brought Bad Salzdetfurth high tax revenues and a considerable expansion of the infrastructure. At the beginning of the First World War, the potash plant had long since risen to become the largest employer in the area. It employed about 650 people.

During the First World War , around 300 of the 2300 inhabitants were called up for military service. At the end of the war Bad Salzdetfurth had 94 dead and missing to mourn. It can also be assumed that numerous civilians - especially in the turnip winter of 1916/17 - died as a result of malnutrition.

Weimar Republic and National Socialism

By decree of the Prussian State Ministry, Bad Salzdetfurth was given the additional designation "Bad" on December 10, 1921. The economic situation of Bad Salzdetfurth in the 1920s can be described as tense.

In the early 1930s, the NSDAP was also very popular in Bad Salzdetfurth. In the Reichstag elections in 1933, the NSDAP received around 29 percent of the approximately 19,000 votes cast in the Hildesheim district. After the seizure of power by the National Socialists brisk construction activities, where among other things the (now demolished) began in Bad Salzdetfurth Hostel and the swimming pool were built.

During the Second World War, life in Bad Salzdetfurth initially (apparently) went its usual course. Overall, the food situation was adequate. During the air raid on Hildesheim on March 22, 1945, individual bombs also hit the city of Bad Salzdetfurth and destroyed two houses in Göttingstrasse, among other places. Shortly before the end of the war, a bunker was built under the Kreuzberg stairs. The Second World War ended in Bad Salzdetfurth with the peaceful invasion of American soldiers on April 8, 1945.

Since the Second World War

The years after the Second World War were marked by heavy immigration from the former eastern regions. There was a great housing shortage. This could only be reduced by new construction activity that began around 1948, which was financially supported in particular by the potash plant. The influx of expellees led to tensions in the social life of the city in Bad Salzdetfurth - despite the economic situation recovering rapidly from 1948 onwards.

The potash plant itself had already resumed operations in autumn 1945 and in 1948 already employed around 1,100 people. In 1948 the Bad Salzdetfurth saltworks was shut down.

The municipality of Bad Salzdetfurth was declared a city on December 1, 1949. In 1968 it was officially recognized as a spa.

Since the 1950s, there has been a significant increase in productivity in potash mining, which has led to a gradual reduction in jobs.

On March 1, 1974, the municipalities of Bodenburg (Flecken), Breinum, Detfurth, Groß Düngen, Heinde, Hockeln, Klein Düngen, Lechstedt, Listringen, Östrum, Wehrstedt and Wesseln were incorporated as a result of the regional reform .

For economic reasons, the Bad Salzdetfurth potash plant - although its supplies would have lasted for many decades - was shut down in 1992 and salt mining in Bad Salzdetfurth ended. The history of the city of Bad Salzdetfurth has since been shaped by structural change .

Place name

Earlier place names of Salzdetfurth were Thietforde in the 12th century and Detvforde in 1207, Thietforde in 1214, Ditforde in 1305 and Detforde in 1458. The place developed on a saltworks south of Detfurth and bears its name. The term used today shows the high German word “salt”, traditionally Low German “solt” and Latin “salinae” for “salt works, salt storage, saline”. The older name Detfurth is a compound whose basic word is now High German "-furt", but initially Middle Low German "ford" for "ford, transition". In general, it is understood to mean "a commonly used river crossing or a large, popular ford".
