history
Bettrum is mentioned for the first time in an income register of the cathedral provost Johann from the years 1277 to 1286. There you can find the name en betten rum . Later the place was named Betthenem (1317), Bettenum (1325), Bettelem (1412) and Bettrem (1542). The origin of the place name is unclear. According to a local legend, a carpenter shouted "bed down" when the roof structure of the church was being built because of a crooked rafter. This explanation of the place name can also be found in the coat of arms.
On March 1, 1974, Bettrum and the communities Feldbergen, Groß Himstedt, Hoheneggelsen, Klein Himstedt, Mölme, Nettlingen, Söhlde and Steinbrück formed the new community of Söhlde. From 1821 to 1866, these villages were already part of the Steinbrück office , while from 1885 to 1974 they belonged to the Marienburg district , which eventually became part of the Hildesheim district.
Today's townscape is shaped by the Martinskirche, the village community center and the Heinrich Dammann youth barn.
