history
Heinrich the Lion probably mentioned the community for the first time in 1162 in a document. In the middle of the 13th century, the bishop of Posen, Boguphalus , told in his Polish chronicle that a prince Sobeslaus had built a fortified Dahlenburg castle in the second half of the 9th century . This “-burg”, known as the “-burg”, was listed as a good , but street names such as Burgstrasse and Fürstenwall still bear witness to the fortification. The estate was owned by the von Spörcken family . In 1203 the Goh Dahlenburg fell to Duke Wilhelm , a son of Henry the Lion. In 1289 Dahlenburg received city rights under Duke Otto , who had the St. Laurentius Chapel built to this day. Today it is used as a local museum.
As part of the Bardengau, Dahlenburg was the administrative seat of one of his seven Gohe until the "Dahlenburg" burned down in the 14th century and the seat of the castle bailiff was relocated to Bostelwiebeck. Nevertheless, the Guelf noble house was still enfeoffed with the facility in Dahlenburg.
On June 18, 1663, in the evening between 7 and 8 p.m., a major fire broke out in Dahlenburg, which killed 20 houses. The fire raged from Schuster Cohr's house to the Ratskeller. The oldest house in Dahlenburg therefore dates from the time after this fire, namely from 1665.
On January 10, 1975, Dahlenburg was given the name Flecken .

Churches
- St. John's Church
- The St. John's Church , which was newly built between 1903 and 1905, in the center of the village, named after John the Baptist , has a major impact on the townscape. The previous building from the Middle Ages was demolished at the beginning of the 20th century because it was dilapidated. The new building in neo-Gothic style integrates an elaborate late medieval altar and an equally elaborate Renaissance pulpit.
- The Protestant St. John's Congregation currently has a pastor (Christian Gohde), a cantor (Peter Orlamünde), a sexton and a secretary. The cemetery in Dahlenburg also belongs to the community. The community belongs to the Bleckede parish.
- The parish consists of about 2900 parishioners who live in the 25 villages of the parish. With the loss of a pastor's post in 2007, a close cooperation with the neighboring parish in Nahrendorf was established.
- Laurentiuskirche
- The Laurentiuskirche from the Middle Ages at the end of the village in the direction of Lüneburg was in earlier times the church of the outer villages belonging to the parish of Dahlenburg. At the time of the French occupation it was profaned around 1803 and has not been used by the church since then, although it still belongs to the community. It has housed the local history museum since 1928, which focuses on the Wars of Liberation and the Battle of the Göhrde .
- St. Michael Church
- Next to the cemetery is the Catholic St. Michael Church . Shortly after 1945 the Catholic parish was established and in 1951 the barrack-shaped church was consecrated. The church belongs to the parish of St. Mary Queen of St. Rosenkranz in Bleckede , as the last barrack church still in operation from the early post-war period in the Hildesheim diocese , it is a rare architectural testimony to the modest beginnings of the Catholic Church in the diaspora 's rural diaspora areas .
