The first documentary mention was made in 1295 in connection with the St. Michaelis Church, which stands opposite the Amtshof, to which the undershot water mill in Krakow, which was demolished in 1773, also belonged. Bissendorf was the seat of the respective magistrate from 1560 to 1852 .

Bissendorf was a farming village for centuries. The original 13 Meierhöfe were mostly divided over the years, so that, for example, in 1664 a total of 33 farms had Meier status. In addition, there were almost 40 other (smaller) Kötnerhöfe at that time . The economic basis was the cultivation of grain, primarily rye , and cattle breeding, especially horses, cattle and sheep. Between 1850 and 1930 the population increased from around 600 to around 1000 people.

On March 1, 1974, Bissendorf was incorporated into the new municipality of Wedemark.

coat of arms

The design of the coat of arms of Bissendorf comes from the heraldist and graphic artist Alfred Brecht , who was born in Gadenstedt and later lived in Hanover , and who also designed the coat of arms of Bantorf , Barrigsen , Egestorf and many other localities in the Hanover district. The approval of the coat of arms was granted on November 17, 1955 by the Lower Saxony Minister of the Interior .

Coat of arms of Bissendorf
 Blazon : "In green a silver pillar head of the office door of 1691 with the cipher GW ."
Justification of the coat of arms: In keeping with the character of the landscape, Bissendorf chose the green coat of arms as the center of Wedemark. Prehistoric symbols were not offered. Until 1852, Bissendorf was the former seat of the magistrate and the court for Wedemark. In memory of this, the headpiece with the broken-off upper part of the right column of the entrance portal to the old courtyard was included in the coat of arms. The column bears the intertwined initials "GW" of Duke Wilhelm von Braunschweig - Lüneburg .

Culture and sights

  • When the district bailiff was founded around 1560, the home of the bailiff was built, today the registry office, one of the most beautiful secular buildings in Wedemark, to which a west wing was added in 1611. Close by is the so-called Kavaliershaus, which was built around 1620/1621 and today houses the Richard Brandt Museum . Both buildings show the ornamentation of the late Renaissance.
  • The official building of the office, the Amtsvogtei, was built in 1819 and was last used as a department store by the Busse family before it was acquired by the municipality of Wedemark and extensively converted into a community center and restored in 2007.
  • The former guest house and farmhouse, a half-timbered building from 1809, is located to the south and houses the community library and another exhibition room of the Richard Brandt Museum on the top floor.
  • Opposite the Amtshaus is the Michaeliskirche, the tower of which was built in the 13th century and renovated in 1680.
  • The historic tombstones on the church are worth seeing. The mill belonging to the church, an undershot water mill located outside the village , was demolished around 1773.
  • West of Bissendorf half way to Resse located Bissendorfer Moor with the in in Langenhagen located Muswillensee .

The imago-Kunstverein Wedemark e. V., an association for visual arts, music, literature and performing arts.

In Bissendorf there is a football club (SC Wedemark), a gymnastics club (with the Bissendorfer Panthers who are successful in inline hockey ), a tennis club, the chess club "Wedemärker Freibauer", the volunteer fire brigade, the social association and the local CDU and SPD associations. Above all, the "Beautification and Nature Conservation Association" VNV-Bissendorf is worth mentioning, which looks after the village as well as looking after nature and preserving the old half-timbered houses.

The Schützengesellschaft Bissendorf from 1912 e. V. holds the Bissendorfer Schützenfest every year at Whitsun . Until around 1940, the historic shooting association administered and celebrated three festivals a year. The cooperative included the landlords (farm owners) from the Realgemeinde Bissendorf, Scherenbostel, Ickhorst and Wiechendorf. A former “Schützenbier” was served for the children under the guidance of the teachers, another for the servants and maids and another for the farmers and married workers. To this end, the cooperative appointed a member to organize the festival on his farm. He got the liquor license. It was not until 1935 that the rifle festival became a “people's and rifle festival” through a municipal resolution.
