history

At 18,000 BC The first finds of flint tools by ice age reindeer hunters in Sahlenburg's Pennworthmoor are dated. In 1325 the Sahlenburg of the Lords of Lappe , a noble family, was first mentioned in a document. Around 1400 the landlords moved their residence to a stone castle in Ritzebüttel . This building is considered to be the forerunner of Ritzebüttel Castle . There is still no reliable explanation for the place name "Sahlenburg".

The communities Arensch , Berensch , Cuxhaven, Döse , Duhnen, Groden , Gudendorf , Holte , Insel Neuwerk , Oxstedt , Ritzebüttel , Sahlenburg, Spangen , Stickenbüttel, Süder- and Westerwisch belonged to the Hamburg office of Ritzebüttel until 1864 and then to the Ritzebüttel estate .
