Location of Dinkelhausen in Lower Saxony

Dinkelhausen is a district of the city of Uslar in the Northeim district with 312 inhabitants.

location

Dinkelhausen is located in southern Lower Saxony, about three kilometers east of the core city of Uslar. The place is located on the southern foothills of the Solling and is surrounded by fields and meadows; to the east and north, the predominantly densely wooded mountain ranges of the Solling rise to over 500 meters.

The district town of Northeim is 22 kilometers to the east as the crow flies, the next major city of Göttingen is 22 kilometers to the southeast. The state capital Hanover is located approx. 79 kilometers north of Dinkelhausen.

history

As with most of the villages in the region, the time when Dinkelhausen was founded is unknown. The first documentary mention can be found in a document of the Lippoldsberg monastery from 1286, where the name of the place is Dinkellingenhusen . Dinkelhausen was on a former late medieval road connection from the Weser valley via Uslar and Moringen to Northeim. The sub-village on both sides of the Malliehagenbach can be regarded as the nucleus of the settlement, the large farmsteads of which are arranged as clustered villages around the town center. To the east of the town center in the Bergstrasse area, smaller properties were built in the 19th century, and further town expansions followed later.
Since the territorial reform of March 1, 1974, the formerly independent municipality has belonged to the newly founded large municipality of Uslar.

Dinkelhausen is located on the edge of the distribution area of ​​the Low German hall house , which can be found in this region mostly as a through hallway with longitudinal or transverse access. In addition, there are also Central German building types of the half-timbered house ( Ernhaus ). Some of the buildings are designed in the floor plan of the Low German hall houses, but are not built in a post- and- beam construction , but in floor timbering.

Attractions

Ruin of the village church of Malliehagen

Malliehagen church ruins

One of the sights is the Malliehagen church ruin , located about two and a half kilometers northeast . The place to which the church belonged was mentioned in 1318 in the loan book of Duke Otto des Mild von Braunschweig as Melighhagen . In a document from 1596, the place is referred to as a desert . Only the ruins of the church remain from the village, which were uncovered in 1984. The church , which is rectangular in plan, was built from quarry stone , the west wall is still 7 meters high, the wall thickness is a good one meter below and about 0.60 meters above. The church building is separated into a western and an eastern part by a partition. In the western part of the church there is now a profiled stone, which was not originally at this point. Possibly it was a rectangular, multi-storey tower church with the character of a fortified church .

Chapel in Dinkelhausen

chapel

The village chapel, whose parish belongs to the parish of Uslar in the parish of Leine-Solling , was built in 1743 and renovated in 1998. It is a rectangular, two-storey half - timbered building which, in addition to the chapel, also includes the classroom of the school, which existed until 1874, as well as the former teacher's apartment. On the north gable of the gable roof is an octagonal high roof turret , which was renewed in 1948.

Infrastructure

  • Road: The B 241 runs through the village of Bollensen , about a kilometer to the south, and continues from Northeim via Uslar towards Beverungen . There is only one side road through Dinkelhausen itself. The next motorway junctions are on the A 7 in Northeim, Nörten-Hardenberg and Göttingen.
  • Bus traffic: A regular bus service runs from Uslar via Dinkelhausen.
  • Rail: The nearest regional train station is in Uslar- Allershausen on the Sollingbahn with at least two-hour train connections between Paderborn or Ottbergen and Northeim. Göttingen is the nearest train station where both IC and ICE trains stop.
  • Air traffic: There is an airport in Uslar in the form of a small glider airfield.

Economy and tourism

There are hardly any commercial jobs in Dinkelhausen; Agriculture and forestry no longer play a significant role either. Most of the working population therefore commute to neighboring cities.

In the former village school there is a home parlor that can be visited. There is a grill hut near the village.
