Barsinghausen ( Low German Basche [husen] ) is a town and independent municipality under Lower Saxony municipal law in the Hanover region .

geography

location

Barsinghausen is located on the Deister ridge in the transition area between the German low mountain ranges and the north German lowlands. The city administratively belongs to the Hanover region and is located in the Calenberger Land , which is a historical landscape southwest of Hanover . The Deister is a local recreation area that borders on the Weser Uplands and is only approx. 200 meters away from the city center in its foothills. The place lies within the Calenberger Lössbörde with fertile arable soils.

The urban area between Groß Munzel and the Deisterkamm has a difference in altitude of more than 300 meters. The SGB ​​Stadtentwicklungsgesellschaft Barsinghausen mbH uses the number “142 above sea level” in the logo and thus refers to the differences in altitude ( relief energy ) in the city area.

Neighboring communities

Barsinghausen borders on Wunstorf , Seelze , Gehrden , Bad Nenndorf , Wennigsen (Deister) , Springe , Lauenau and Bad Münder am Deister and therefore also on parts of the Hameln-Pyrmont and Schaumburg districts .

history

Telecommunications tower seen from the B 65

Former place names of Barsinghausen were in the years 1193 Berkingehusen , 1200-1204 Berzinghusen , 1203 Berchingehusen , 1213 Berscyngehusen , 1216 Berchsihusen , 1223-1225 Berkenhusen , 1228 Berkingehusen and 1229 Bercingehusen . Apparently there is a connection to the family name “Berico”, which is derived from “bero”, “bern” and means “bear”, “hero”, “warrior”. Barsinghausen therefore means "in the houses of the Beriko clan".

Settlement of the Deistermulde and foundation of a monastery

Tool finds document the stay of people in the area of ​​what later became Barsinghausen for the first time in the Neolithic . At the time of the Great Migration around 400 AD, the Cheruscans can be traced in the Deister-Leine area. After 500 AD, Saxons opened up the Deistermulde. In the early Middle Ages the settlement area belonged to the Marstemgau . In the late 10th and early 11th century that originated Isenburg as Wallenburg at Country Ringshausen. Their barely visible remains were examined from 1982 to 1983. In the 11th century the "Kokemühle", a water mill between the later Barsinghausen districts of Barrigsen and Landringhausen, was first mentioned.

Barsinghausen was first mentioned in a document in the High Middle Ages (1193) in connection with the foundation of the Marienkloster , at that time still under the name "Berkingehusen". Other districts are more likely to be documented, such as Kirchdorf, which is first mentioned in a Carolingian document in 892. The oldest documented mention of the town of Goltern dates back to 1158 (document for the payment of the tithe to Duke Heinrich the Younger of Bavaria and Saxony). Barrigsen was first mentioned in a document in 1225.

In the High Middle Ages, the loess soils and numerous tributaries to the Südaue formed an important basis for agriculture and numerous mills. Three mills in Egestorf were first mentioned in a document in 1231. In addition, knights and landlords' estates were created as separate economic units in the Barsinghausen area during this time .

Reformation, mining and industrialization

In 1543, the Reformation led to a church reorganization in Barsinghausen Monastery . From the 17th century obtained in addition to the farmers, especially Steinhauer that the Deister sandstone mined, social importance. The Barsinghausen mining industry experienced a further boom from 1817 when the early industrial companies around Hanover (for example in Linden ) were added to the buyers of the Wealden coal .

In 1828 the previously independent community of Altenhof was incorporated. Some buildings from this time are still preserved in today's Altenhofstrasse. In 1872 Barsinghausen received a railway connection to the network of the Hanover-Altenbekener Railway through the Haste – Weetzen ( Deisterbahn ) line , which was mainly used for coal mining in the Deister . In 1910, 50 percent of all employed Barsinghausen were employed in the mines.

After the Second World War , the influx of refugees led to a population growth in Barsinghausen. After the Preußische Bergwerks- und Hütten AG (today: TUI) stopped mining hard coal in 1956/57, other branches of industry settled in Barsinghausen. In 1954, the settlement of the VW branch for the construction of the VW Transporter , which was supported by the Lower Saxony Minister of Economics Hermann Ahrens , was also discussed . However, Hanover-Stöcken was awarded the contract . In 1969 Barsinghausen received city ​​rights . Until its dissolution in 2004, Barsinghausen belonged to the Hanover administrative district .

Incorporations

As a result of the first regional and administrative reform in Lower Saxony in 1968, the municipalities Barsinghausen, Kirchdorf and Egestorf were merged, which from then on formed the (enlarged) municipality Barsinghausen. This received city rights on August 21, 1969. In connection with the Hanover Act, the previously independent communities of Barrigsen, Göxe, Goltern, Groß Munzel, Hohenbostel am Deister, Holtensen near Wunstorf, Landringhausen, Langreder and Ostermunzel were incorporated into the town of Barsinghausen on March 1, 1974. The community Goltern at that time consisted of the communities Großgoltern, Nordgoltern, Eckerde and Stemmen and the community Hohenbostel am Deister from the communities Hohenbostel, Bantorf, Wichtringhausen and Winninghausen.

City coat of arms

The design of the municipal coat of arms of the city of Barsinghausen comes from the heraldist and publisher Heinz Reise .

  • The award by the Lower Saxony Minister of the Interior took place on August 31, 1950.
  • The city of Barsinghausen, which was newly formed by law on March 1, 1974, took over the coat of arms of the previous city of Barsinghausen, which was approved by the district president in Hanover on August 7, 1974.
Barsinghausen coat of arms
 Blazon : “ Split shield . Above in green a leaping, golden stag ; lower half split , in fronta gold grindstone in black , behind in gold crossed black mallets and iron . "
Justification of the coat of arms: The stag symbolizes the Barsinghausen forest on three sides with an abundance of red deer. Until the First World War, Barsinghausen's prosperity was largely based on the sandstone deposits (production of grinding stones), and to this day on mining. Therefore, the grindstone as well as the mallet and iron are included in the coat of arms. The black coal, the golden sandstone and the monastery in the game-rich green forest establish the old Barsinghausen colors (black: gold: green).
  • The logo of the city of Barsinghausen also picks up on the deer, supplemented by the city slogan “… it's uphill here!”.

Monastery and monastery church

Monastery building

The Monastery Barsinghausen was first documented in 1193 and is the oldest of the five former convents in the Principality of Calenberg. Initially founded for monks and nuns of the Augustinian order, the monastery has only been inhabited by Augustinian women since 1229. In 1543 the Reformation was introduced in the monastery and it developed into a Protestant women's monastery. After being badly damaged in the Thirty Years War , it could only be rebuilt between 1700 and 1704. Today it is administered by the monastery chamber of Hanover and has been run since 1996 by sisters of the evangelical community, whose lives are based on the three evangelical councils: community of property, celibacy and obedience. Attached to the monastery is the monastery church , which arose together with the monastery and was built as a hall church in the transition style from the Romanesque to the Gothic .

Wichtringhausen windmill

Dutch windmill in Wichtringhausen

Before the current Dutch windmill was built in 1819, the first Dutch windmill in the region was built around 50 meters away in 1752. This was built by the squire Langwerth von Simmern . After the first mill burned down in 1795, the new building was initiated in 1819 because the landlord was threatened with the withdrawal of his milling license. However, the new building led to complaints from the master builder because the horses shied away on the Hanover-Minden highway (today the B 65). That is why it was moved to its current location in 1824. In 1835 the Weber family became tenants of the mill, which from 1873 also owns it. The mill tower, which consists of six floors, was built from Deister sandstone and has a gallery typical of this type of mill. The mill can be used at events such as B. the mill day or the discovery day of the region can be visited.
