Dieckborn

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Dieckborn was a headwaters in what is now the Hanover district of Linden . Before it dried up in the 19th century, it temporarily supplied the city of Hanover and the Great Garden in Herrenhausen with its water .

history

Dieckborn was southwest of the kitchen garden

The Dieckborn was an area with several springs and wells between the barn and the house of the later Schnabel Hof called Hurlebusch Hof . A spring near Linden was mentioned as Dykborn as early as 1423 . With the approval of the dukes Bernhard, Otto and Wilhelm , their water was directed through an elaborate system of wooden pipes over the Ihme to the city of Hanover and from there to the houses of some citizens. The system fell into disrepair after Bornkunst am Himmelreich and Piepenborn took over from 1487 .

In 1645, Duke Christian Ludwig acquired a 30 acre property in Linden from the von Alten family . On the property which was created kitchen garden to supply the residence of the since 1637 Guelph ruler of the Principality of Calenberg used linen castle and later the castle Herrenhausen .

The Dieckborn on the southwest corner of the kitchen garden supplied it with water and fed numerous ponds connected by the Gartenriede stream . Some were used for fish farming. From around 1668 to 1706, one of the ponds was fed to the Parnassus fountain on Neustädter Marktplatz in Hanover by means of a double line made of wooden pipes across the Ihme Bridge . According to another account, the construction of the bridge interrupted this line in 1696. The water used for brewing beer in Hanover also came from the council pond in the kitchen garden via pipeline. Afterwards, water art, privately operated by Etienne Maillet de Fourton an der Leine at Clevertor, took over the supply in Hanover.

Another double line made of wooden pipes crossed the Leine by means of a culvert made of lead pipes under the Limmer Bridge and from 1676 to 1687 fed the water tanks for the large garden from a pond in the kitchen garden. The two-strand pipeline, which was repeatedly repaired until 1679, was 3.2 km long, 4 inches wide and consisted of 1,400 hollowed-out pine trunks . Since the water pressure was not enough to be able to operate water features considered appropriate to one's status, a line from the higher-lying bath borne ponds on Benther Berg took over this task after 1687 .

The Dieckborn continued to serve to supply the kitchen garden with its six fish ponds and also the residents in Linden. When the water of the Dieckborn became increasingly polluted in the 19th century, Carl August Klindworth carried out numerous boreholes in the vicinity from 1836 to 1839. He dug a well that again supplied clean water. In 1839 the Dieckborn dried up. Possibly this was caused by the perforation of the water-impermeable clay layer lying in the subsoil between Benther Berg and Ihme by Klindworth's drillings, construction work and numerous clay or marl pits . Another reason could have been the increasing development and thus surface sealing in the course of the beginning industrialization of the village of Linden and its surroundings.

Dieckbornstrasse in Hannover-Linden is still reminiscent of the Dieckborn .
