history

The etymology of the name, according to it is near the village Dallahn and its surrounding areas is a " Slavic Altsiedellandschaft [.]".

On April 21, 1945 the fighting of the Second World War also reached Dallahn and its neighboring villages. The 115th US Infantry Regiment advanced eastwards from their starting line (Nateln - Groß Ellenberg) with three companies. From Nateln , the B Company began its advance on Göddenstedt late in the morning with four tank destroyers , where they had to fight considerable counterfire. Further south, the C Company moved from Wellendorf via Nestau and Grabau in an easterly direction. With the support of B Company from the north, she managed to take Dalldorf. The A company - coming from Rosche - set up an "advanced battalion command post" in Teyendorf and finally began their attack at 6:00 p.m. on the Dallahn to the southeast. According to the regimental history "115th Infantry in World War II", the site was taken at 7:30 p.m. "without substantial resistance".

Until July 1, 1972, Dallahn existed as an autonomous municipality with its own mayor. In the course of the regional reform in Lower Saxony in 1972, the place became part of the municipality of Suhlendorf.

Geomorphology, landscape and nature

The place lies in the western outflow area of the approximately 40 kilometers long hilly landscape (old moraine landscape ) of the Drawehn , which merges here into the plain of the Uelzener-Bevensener basin.

The local, arid cultural landscape is dominated by fields (mainly potatoes , sugar beets and grain ), meadows and forests (especially Scots pines [ Pinus sylvestris] , red spruces [ Picea abies], beeches [Fagus], and more rarely pedunculate oaks [ Quercus robur L.], Silver birch trees (Betula pendula) [ Betula], pyramidal poplars [ Populus nigra 'Italica], horse chestnuts [Aesculus hippocastanum] ). To the northwest of the settlement area is the 'Göddenstedter Wald', to the northeast the 'Braudeler Wald'.
