history

"Ursula" windmill in operation

Originally Barlt was part of the parish of Meldorf. In the time of the Dithmarschen peasant republic , the village was comparatively rich, as the building of the Barlter Church in 1428 shows. It was built on the presumably pretended justification that the Hovetkerke (main church) in Meldorf was often not accessible due to the difficult weather and soil conditions - for the Dithmarsch march farmers it was part of everyday life, with frequent wet weather over soggy clay soils and flooded drainage ditches having to achieve their goals.

As a result, the barlers managed to build a church from village funds alone, temporarily paying two pastors and continuing to pay their dues to the Meldorf parish. Church building thus also belongs to a later generation of church buildings, when these no longer led to the founding of regionally extensive parishes , but remained locally limited in their effect and construction.

On April 1, 1934, the parish Barlt was dissolved. Their two farmers Barlt and Barlter Alten- and Neuendeich became independent communities / rural communities.

Incorporations

On July 1, 1964, the previously independent municipality of Barlter Alten- and Neuendeich was incorporated.
