geography
location
The Bramwald is located in southern Lower Saxony in the northwest of the Münden Nature Park, about 20 km (as the crow flies ) west of Göttingen and 5 km north of the city center of Hann. Münden . It lies to the east of the upper southern section of the Oberweser , on the western bank of which is the extensive Reinhardswald in northern Hesse . To the north the landscape leads over to the Solling , with the Schwülme separating the two areas. The Dransfelder Stadtwald rises slightly to the east and the Kaufunger Wald to the south .
The elongated Bramwald lies in the area of the state forest of the Münden Forestry Office . Its highest mountain is the Totenberg ( 408.1 m ), which is located in the north of the forest area and is designated as a nature reserve (see below ).
Natural allocation
The Bramwald forms in the natural spatial main unit group Weser-Leine-Bergland (no.37) and in the main unit Solling, Bramwald and Reinhardswald (370) the subunit Bramwald (370.5), which is divided into the natural areas Hemelner Bramwald (370.50), Schedetal (370.51 ) and Mündener Bramwald (370.52). To the north, the landscape passes through the valley of the Nieme to the Kuppigen Solling (370.1). To the east it drops into the Schedener Rötsenke (371.11), to the south into the Mündener Fulda-Werra valley (370.6) and to the west into the Weser breakthrough valley (370.3).

history
In the Middle Ages, the monasteries of Bursfelde , Lippoldsberg and especially Hilwartshausen had ownership rights there . Sigebodo II von Scharzfeld , Ludolf II von Dassel and the Counts of Ziegenberg owned bailiwick rights for a time . In the era of Henry the Lion , the Archbishopric of Mainz initially gained influence. In 1224 the forest was mentioned in a document with "silve que Bramwaldt dicitur".
The Mainz Bishop Gerhard I was 1256 together with Count Konrad III. von Everstein on a campaign through the area near Göttingen . The campaign should serve to relieve the Asseburg . The Guelph Duke Albrecht I captured both of them and then cruelly killed the Count. He released the bishop in 1257 against two things: First, Albrecht I collected 5,000 marks, which the bishop had, because Richard of Cornwall gave him 8,000 marks so that he could vote in the double election of 1256/57 . Second, the bishop had to cede Gieselwerder Castle to Albrecht I. A little later, the Bramwald was also owned by the Welfs.
