history

Catholic Church

Due to its location in the Hildesheimer Börde with fertile black earth soils, there are early approaches to settlement in the area of ​​today's Bavenstedt. There is evidence of a Germanic settlement from the 3rd to 5th centuries AD in today's industrial park.

Bavenstedt was first mentioned in a document around 900. In a document from 1221 it was called "Babenstedt".

The Hildesheim cloth merchant Johann Georg Lüntzel († 1838) acquired a larger farm in Bavenstedt, which was recognized in 1894 under Ernst Lüntzel as a manor of the Hildesheim knighthood.

The census of 1895 showed a population of 385. When it was incorporated into Hildesheim, which became effective on March 1, 1974, the village had 880 inhabitants. On December 31, 2008, 1,441 people lived here.
