Waters

The Osteinsel with the Bremervörde harbor and the Auesee on the right of the Oste

The Oste flows through Bremervörde , which is a navigable waterway from there to the mouth . This section marked as Lower East (north of the Bremervörde weir ) was a federal waterway until June 2010 . The Oberoste (south of the weir) is only accessible for recreational shipping . On the left Ostearm is the Bremervörde port (river kilometer 0.2), which is used for recreational boating as well as the Oste-Yacht-Club and Vörder-Yacht-Club . In the southern part of the city, the Bever flows into the Oberoste, and the Oste-Schwinge Canal branches off to the northeast .

There are also several lakes in Bremervörde, the most famous of which is the Vörde lake . This is an artificially created lake that serves as a local recreation area and is part of the Bremervörde nature and adventure park . The only tributary is the Balbecksbach, which flowed into the Oste before the lake was established. Other lakes in the city area are the former moat , the yellow lake and the Auesee in the Auepark .

geology

Bremervörde is located at the intersection of the Zevener and the Stader Geest and is therefore mainly located on Geestboden .

history

Merian copper engraving, 1653

At the beginning of the 12th century, the Duke of Saxony Lothar von Süpplingenburg (later Emperor Lothar III ) built the Vörde moated castle, called "castrum vore" , at a strategically important ford over the Oste . Because of its size and dominant importance in the land between the Elbe and Weser rivers, Vörde Castle was often the subject of bitter armed conflicts during the following centuries. In the dispute over the inheritance of the Stade Counts in 1144 , the fortress initially came into the possession of Duke Heinrich the Lion and his sons, before it fell to the Archbishops of Bremen in 1219 . Since Vörde Castle was at the center of the clerical principality, it soon became the main castle of the Archdiocese of Bremen , and in the late Middle Ages also the seat of the central administration of the Archbishopric and the local administration of the Bailiwick or the Bremervörde Office. Several Bremen archbishops ruled from Bremervörde as secular and spiritual heads of the archbishopric, as they rarely stayed in Bremen due to the frequent disputes with the city ​​council and the merchants there.

The shelling of Bremervordes by the Danes, 1657

During the Thirty Years War Bremervörde was besieged several times by imperial, Danes and Swedes, for example in 1627 and 1646. Since the place was largely destroyed, the Swedes moved the seat of government of their newly created Principality of Bremen-Verden to Stade . The place suffered another siege in 1657 during the First Northern War or Danish-Swedish War.

In the Swedish-Brandenburg War from 1675 to 1676, the Swedish Bremervörde was conquered in a campaign by several states of the Holy Roman Empire and Denmark and remained in Allied ownership until the end of the war in 1679. In the course of the Peace of Saint-Germain in 1679 Bremervörde fell back to Sweden.

In 1682 Vörde Castle was finally demolished and the castle buildings demolished. Only the former chancellery of the archbishops of Bremen and Verden from around 1608 remained, today's old district building . The building material obtained was used, among other things, for the construction of the Swedish warehouse in Stade.

The elevation to the city dragged on from 1833 to 1852.

In the 19th and early 20th centuries, the port of Bremervörde was an important transshipment point for peat from the Teufelsmoor as well as for Stackbusch , which was transported on by Ewern, as the end of shipping on the Oste . With the improvement of land-based transport routes in the 20th century, however, river navigation completely lost its importance. Until the dissolution of the Bremervörde district in 1977, the city was the seat of the district administration.

In 1855 a 7.25 kilogram meteorite fell near Bremervörde . It belongs to the class H / L3.9 of the common chondrites . The largest part that still exists today is located in the University of Göttingen .

A total of 32 seats

The city ​​council is the municipal representative body and the main body of the city of Bremervörde and consists of 32 councilors. This is the specified number for a municipality with a population between 15,001 and 20,000. The 32 council members are elected by a local election in general, direct, free, equal and secret ballot for five years each. The current term of office began on November 1, 2016 and ends on October 31, 2021. Another permanent and voting member of the city council is the full-time mayor of the city.

While the Party of Reason (PDV) and Die Linke were elected for the first time in the 2011 local elections and each received a seat on the city council, the Christian Center (CM) did not run again in 2016 after insufficient votes for a seat on the council in 2011 were. The left was able to confirm the result of 2011, but the representative of the PDV stood for election as an independent candidate in 2016, but did not get enough votes. The Free Citizens' Association of Voters (WFB), which stopped running in 2011, did not submit any candidates for the 2016 election either.

In 2011 a coalition of the SPD , the proBRV electoral group , the Greens and the FDP was formed , so that the CDU and PDV formed the opposition. However, the coalition dissolved after a while, whereupon the previous opposition leader, the CDU, agreed with the Greens and the FDP on a new majority in the council, which would last until the 2016 election. Due to the absolute majority held by the CDU after the 2016 election results, there was no need to find a coalition.

mayor

Detlev Fischer (CDU) is the full-time mayor of the city of Bremervörde. In the last mayoral election on May 25, 2014, he was elected with 65.4% of the vote. His opponent Doris Brandt (SPD) received 34.6%. The turnout was 53.5%. Fischer took up his post on November 1, 2014, replacing the previous incumbent Eduard Gummich (CDU), who was no longer running. The deputy mayors since the local elections in 2011 have been Uwe-Jürgen Matthias (CDU), Hans Klaus Genter-Mickley (SPD) and Rolf Hüchting (Greens). Since the local elections in 2016 , Fischer's deputies have been his party colleagues Uwe-Jürgen Matthias, Mathias Betz and Hans Klaus Genter-Mickley.

Local councilor and local mayor

After a referendum in September 2009 determined the formation of a local council in the core city of Bremervörde, this was elected for the first time in the 2011 local elections.

In the 2016 local elections , the distribution of the nine seats in the local council was as follows:

Party / list Seats
CDU 4th
SPD 3
Flat share Bremervörde / Engeo 1
Colorful list 1

On the occasion of the local council elections in 2011, a local mayor was also elected for the core city of Bremervördes. Susanne Morgenstern (citizen list) received the most votes and became the first female mayor, Alexander Oppermann (SPD) was her deputy. In March 2015, Morgenstern resigned from office and resigned from the local council, whereupon Heinrich Tiedemann (SPD) was elected the new local mayor.

After the local council elections in 2016, Frank Pingel (CDU) was elected as the new local mayor. His deputy is Rainer Hartmeyer (SPD).

Museums

The Bachmann Museum is located in the old district building, the oldest preserved building in the city (over 400 years old) . After the construction of the district house on the opposite side of the castle hill , the former site of Vörde Castle , the building was initially used as a district museum and until 1991 also as a district archive. Today the museum, which is named after the local historian August Bachmann , houses exhibits on geological history , archeology , as well as history and folklore , mostly relating to the region. There are also theme-related touring exhibitions, guided tours and lecture series. Just a few minutes walk from the museum is located on the banks of Auesee Lake a reconstructed hut village of the Middle Stone Age, which is part of the museum.

The Stuhmer Museum is located in Vorwerkstrasse . Since 1959, this has represented life in the former West Prussian district of Stuhm , as it was between the turn of the century and 1945. Exhibits from everyday life, but also photos, art objects and documents are used for this purpose. The district of Rotenburg (Wümme) , in which Bremervörde is located, has been a partner district of the “Heimatkreis Stuhm” of the West Prussian Landsmannschaft since 1956 . The museum makes a significant contribution to the preservation of the cultural assets and customs of the expellees and refugees from the former eastern regions of the German Empire .

music

Les Garcons

Les Carcons was a beat band founded in 1963 from Bremen , which played in northern Germany until 1968 and made a comeback in 1992. The first public appearance took place in the summer of 1963 in the extension building of the old middle school, which was demolished in 1963. Due to the success, further appearances followed at the dance tea in the House of Youth and very often in the Bremen Schützenhof. 25 years later the core of the group got back together and they played a.o. a. at the Oldie Night at the Vörder See . This performance with many enthusiastic "old" fans was so moving that it was decided to start over. In the next 10 years, Bremen festivals, store openings and anniversaries as well as dance teas were played.

Bremervörde city band

The “Bremervörde Stadtkapelle” or “Stadtkapelle Bremervörde” was founded on August 8, 1988 at the suggestion of the mayor at the time and other people. Today the town band plays at local events, including the well-known “summer concert” in Bremervörde. The town band maintains a youth orchestra and has around 60 active members.
