Location of Denkershausen in Lower Saxony

Denkershausen is a village in the city of Northeim . This also includes the Wiebrechtshausen estate .

history

The place was first mentioned in 1141 because the St. Blasien monastery (Northeim) had two hooves here . The Wiebrechtshausen monastery acquired additional property in the Middle Ages. The national rulership was held by the Guelphs, who received Denkershausen from the Brunon inheritance.

The place of execution and masking of the Brunstein Office has been located in Denkershausen since ancient times .

The school building erected in 1955 has since been rededicated to the village community center. The coat of arms shows three lamp cleaners and a fish and thus refers to the neighboring Denkershäuser pond to the west ( position ), which is designated as a nature reserve ( NSG No. BR 031 ).

On March 1, 1974, Denkershausen was incorporated into the district town of Northeim.

Attractions

Ev. Church of St. Pankratius

The Evangelical Lutheran Church in Denkershausen was measured by Hector Wilhelm Heinrich Mithoff ; the nave was therefore 28 feet long and 21 feet wide. The choir , which dates from earlier than the nave, was 13 feet both in length and width and was roofed by a stone vault, while the nave was closed by a simple beamed ceiling. The approximate time the church was built was given as the time before the Reformation . Today, the construction time is assumed to be 1653, from which a bell mentioned by Mithoff also came. The former square massive church tower on the west side mentioned by Mithoff no longer exists. Today's pointed arch west portal with the year 1875 indicates a renovation. The nave and choir are combined under a common gable roof, which is slightly hipped over the end of the choir and carries a roof turret above the entrance side. In the church registers, which begin from 1789, all preachers since the Reformation are also listed.
