Place names

The old names were 1290 in Berne, 1304 in Barem, 1305 in Barme, 1319 in villa Barme, 1344 uilla Barem, 1348 to / van Barum, 1354 in Barem, 1366 van Barum, 1384 to Barem. The Low German dialect dictionaries list under barme, berme several interpretations, such as ditch edge, dyke river, embankment, step on the dike, the bottom, "the foot of the dike". Barum lies on a relatively narrow elevation protruding from the Neetze. It therefore applies to Barum in the Lüneburg district "settlement near" or "on a hill".
