history

Cadenberge was first mentioned in a document in 1148. The original St. Nicolai Church was first mentioned around 1319. From 1742 to 1752 the church was rebuilt on the old plan.

The manor of Bremer was first mentioned around 1319 . In 1724 the two-storey manor house of the former manor was built and later referred to as the manor Graf von Bremer and Castle Cadenberge . Today it is a boarding school of the Cadenberge vocational schools.

Cadenberge has developed into the region's market location since the Middle Ages.

In 1881 the Niederelbebahn railway line from Hamburg to Cuxhaven was built. The Cadenberge stop was expanded to become the Cadenberge station in 1905 and 1912.

Place name

Jürgen Udolph says in his radio show The Place Name Researcher :

“The place name has been handed down for 850 years. The place name component Cad possibly goes back to the Middle Low German word Cade for grape, i.e. bacon cubes. The word grape stands for uncleanliness or dirt. Dirt, quagmire, the landscape is not so beautiful, could therefore be an interpretation. However, it is very difficult to derive this place name. "

Associations, incorporations

On June 1, 1965, the communities of Cadenberge, Wingst and Oppeln merged to form a joint community called Samtgemeinde Am Dobrock . The municipalities of Bülkau and Oberndorf were added in 1970 and Neuhaus (Oste) and the municipalities of Belum and Geversdorf in 1972.

On November 1, 2016, Cadenberge merged with the neighboring municipality of Geversdorf to form a new municipality of Cadenberge.

coat of arms

Municipal coat of arms

	Blazon : “ Split ; in front: under a red shield head coveredwith a silver plow in silver on blue waves, a left-facing red one-master with black sails and a red pennant on the mast; back: in silver half a red mill wheel at the gap. "
	Justification for the coat of arms: At the front, the plow and the ship symbolize the traditional professions of the Geversdorfer residents, agriculture and shipping along with fishing. The rear part of the coat of arms is borrowed from the dynasty of the Counts of Bremer , who died out. The counts sat in Cadenberge for centuries and influenced its development significantly.

Culture and sights

St. Nicolai Church

Buildings

• St. Nicolai Church

The original Gothic St. Nicolai Church, named after Nikolaus von Myra , was first mentioned by the papal collector Jacob de Rota in his statement of accounts around 1319. From 1742 to 1752, a larger new brick building was built on the foundation walls as a rectangular hall church with a polygonal east end.

The free-standing wooden western bell tower was built in 1723. Since the new building of the church turned out to be significantly larger in relation to the old church structure, the tower appears somewhat underproportionate. The tower is no longer visible today, as it is covered by stacked boulders. It stands on four stone pillars. The tower has three bells, two chiming bells and a clock bell. The two ringing bells have the striking note As 'and G', the smaller of the two was cast by Christoph Haupner in Stade in 1698, the larger one was cast by Caspar König in 1732 because it had cracked. The big bell had to be handed in during the Second World War, but then returned unscathed. The clock chime was not cast until 1950.

Inside: The pulpit altar was built at the beginning of the 18th century. Stalls , gallery and Guts prieche (separate seats for the landlords) date from the end of the 18th century. The organ building began in the middle of the 18th century by Jacob Albrecht, was continued from 1754 to 1756 by Johann Heinrich Klappmeyer and completed in 1764 by Dietrich Christoph Gloger .

The church and steeple were renovated from 1962 to 1965.

• Park, castle and pigeon house

The manor house, the idiosyncratic pigeon house and rare trees are located in the Gräflich Bremer Castle and Manor Park . The park was reconstructed in its historical form at the end of 2008 and is a listed building . A circular hiking trail leads from the park through the Freesenmoor to the Wingst .

The two-story brick mansion with a gable was built between 1724 and 1752. The hipped roof has an octagonal wooden roof turret .

The pigeon house is now a museum and hotel.
