Bischofshol
Bischofshol is a forest restaurant and hotel in the southern part of the Hanover city forest Eilenriede , which is located on the site of a former tower of the same name of the Hanoverian Landwehr .
history
At the place of Bischofshol a guard tower of the Landwehr of the city of Hanover was built around 1460 , which was mentioned for the first time in 1461 ("by the nigen Torne go to the bishop"). The first part of the name meant the Bishop of Hildesheim , various interpretations have been suggested for the second part. The theologian Hans Werner Dannowski reports on various folk etymologies . During the implementation of the Reformation in Hanover in 1533 , the Hildesheim bishop “picked up” the old-faith clergy and councilors, who had given way to the pressure of the street, or, conversely, the city council “picked up” the bishop at this point of the Landwehr when he left the city have visited. Waldemar Bahrdt reconstructed the origin of the first name interpretation in 1893 in his history of the Reformation of the city of Hanover ; He referred to David Meier's report from the early 17th century, according to which the brothers of the Hanoverian Minorite Monastery were expelled in 1533 and "set out like a papal procession". As Christian Ludwig Albrecht Patje put it in 1817, these clergymen were "picked up by the Bishop of Hildesheim at the border of the city ban mile" . Bahrdt called this derivation "foolish" and a "fable". In 1740 Christian Ulrich Grupen listed seven Landwehr guards in his Origines et Antiquitates Hannoverenses , including "Bischuppes Holt". "Holt" can be understood as a wood and thus as a name for a forest, an interpretation that Waldemar Röhrbein represents ("Bishop's wood"). In the late medieval wage registers of the city of Hanover examined by Hector Wilhelm Heinrich Mithoff , the name of the queue ends in “-hol”, “-hoel” or “-holl”, which, according to Mithoff's analysis of the sources for the word in this Middle Low German document , “opens up "A depression, a hole" means. The wage registers also show that there was a tower with a heated room there in the 1480s and 1490s. For the year 1483 a bee fence ("immestede") is also proven.

From the 17th century the respective tower keeper ran a small bar . In 1681, Duke Ernst August gave the old town of Hanover the privilege of running inns in Eilenriede , after which the first one in Bischofshol was set up and, together with another house on Schiffgraben , started the excursion restaurants in Hanover's surroundings. When Johann Heinrich Redecker wrote his Historical Collectanea in the 1720s, the defense tower no longer existed; According to the Hanoverian Corpus bonorum civitatis, the still existing waiting room was used as a wood-keeper's apartment. In the late 1760s, a timber-framed forest ranger and forest management facility was built. A coffee garden was added later. With the boom in local recreation in the late 19th century, Bischofshol became a popular destination for walkers, many of whom had taken the tram to Kleefeld . Heinrich Christian Abbenthern , who had previously worked for the royal mint of Hanover and died in 1888, is proven to be the leaseholder from 1871 . The founding director of the Hanoverian Adult Education Center , Ada Lessing , grew up in the forest industry after her father Bodo Abbenthern took over the business in 1890.
Bischofshol is a little east of the Messeschnellweg, which was inaugurated in 1950 . The nearby Bischofsholer Damm, leading from the Bult to Kirchrode, was elevated to an elevated road in the 1960s and the dilapidated forestry was broken off in 1967/68. The restaurant was rebuilt shortly afterwards by the architects Peter Huebotter and Partners ; the facade was paneled with wood and thus fitted into the surroundings. A hotel was added to the restaurant. As part of the extension of the light rail Hanover around the branch D-South in the 1990s, the high street of Bischofsholer dam has been extended and is therefore moved up close to the restaurant, which in summer outdoors farming is. In 2000 the building complex was renovated and expanded.
The sports club SV Arminia Hannover has its stadium for home football matches not far from the restaurant west of the Messeschnellweg on Bischofsholer Damm. The players of the soccer team are also known as "the Bischofsholer".
