geography

Community structure

The municipality of Bienenbüttel consists of the core town of Bienenbüttel and the following districts (since 1972):

The administrative headquarters are located in the Bienenbüttel district .

Flowing waters

By far the largest Heide river, the Ilmenau , as well as the Bienenbütteler Mühlenbach, the Eitzener Bach, the Varendorfer Bach, the Krumbach, the Forellenbach (designated nature reserve ), the Riester Bach and the Vierenbach (designated nature reserve ) flow through the community . The water quality is predominantly class II (slightly polluted), with the exception of a section of the Mühlenbach and the entire Varendorfer Bach, which was divided into class III (heavily polluted).

history

As a settlement area, the area of ​​the unitary community has been based on archaeological finds since around 8000 BC. Occupied. Several barrows near Eitzen I, Hohenbostel and between Hohnstorf and Wichmannsburg are evidence of settlement in the Bronze Age . About 1.2 kilometers south of Edendorf there is a large stone grave ( tumulus ). In 1890 a grave with around 1000 urns from the Lombards' time was found near Rieste .

Bienenbüttel itself looks back on a documented 1000 year history.

The Thirty Years' War also raged in Rieste. The Swedish soldiers looted and devastated the place ("Rystede") in 1634/35. “They ate chickens” is an entry for the entire village. The farms of Hans Rademacher and Hans Meyer were hardest hit. The entry in the register behind these two farm names reads: "Have all of their sheep been taken from the Swedish and burned down miserably."

As early as the 19th century, places were amalgamated into larger units. On May 6, 1884, Grünewald was incorporated into the district of Beverbeck, Bardenhagen to Eitzen I and Wichmannsdorf to Bornsen. The interests of a municipality were regulated by an appointed mayor. In 1966 the communities of Bargdorf, Beverbeck, Edendorf, Eitzen I, Hohnstorf and Wichmannsburg merged with Bienenbüttel to form the joint community of Bienenbüttel. Steddorf joined in 1967.

Incorporations

On July 1, 1972, the communities Bargdorf, Beverbeck, Bornsen, Edendorf, Eitzen I, Grünhagen (until then in the district of Lüneburg ), Hohenbostel (also), Hohnstorf, Niendorf, Rieste, Steddorf, Varendorf, Wichmannsburg and Wulfstorf were incorporated. Grünhagen, Hohenbostel, Niendorf and Wulfstorf belonged to the Lüneburg district.

The first part is an old short name Bio or Biho . It belongs to the tribe "bih" or "bi", in Old Saxon "bina" and means bee .

coat of arms

A single-towered silver castle with a golden scale on top of the spire is depicted on a green background. There is a golden fish below the castle. The castle refers to the Biangibudiburg from the Billunger times and the scales symbolize the former Bienenbüttel bailiwick as a sign of jurisdiction. In Bienenbüttel there was a ford into the Wendland , which provided the occasion for the establishment of the place and was therefore made clear by the fish on the coat of arms.
