Ditterke is a village and district of the city of Gehrden in the Hanover region in Lower Saxony .

history

The village developed from a sentry post on the former long-distance trade route between the Rhine and Magdeburg . An "old jug" was the beginning of the settlement, which was initially built south of the street. The extensions on the north side are not suspected until the 18th century. Ditterke was first mentioned in a document in 1208, at that time still as Ditriche . According to Mithoff , the place was written in the oldest documents Thittereke (1266) and Thitterike . There is also the spelling Dytterke (around 1376) and Diderke (also around 1376). These forms of name were interpreted as “a place to live in a diet”, i. H. a group wandering around under a guide looking for or protecting new places to live. It could very well have originally been a guard on the former Hellweg . In Ditterke there was the last unwinding station before Hanover for the teams coming from the west.

Since the Middle Ages, Ditterke has been repeatedly mentioned in documents as an object of exchange or as a service provider, for example in a document from 1266 in which Knight Heinrich von Goltern exchanged “self-authority” in Ditterke for those in Göxe. The village was under the rule of the Knights of Goltern and Eckerde, the canons of Minden and Wunstorf and finally, in 1564, the Counts of Schaumburg.

In the triangle between the main road and the road to Leveste there used to be a cross stone - the Ditterker Cross . He is mentioned in the house book of Amt Calenberg from 1662 and in the description of the 3 main Heer-Strasse in Ambte Calenberg from 1737, in the latter as Ditterker Creutz . The exact location is given in both publications. The Accurate Situations Plan from 1756, which arose from a dispute over the course of the hunting boundaries in the Ditterke area between the Lords of Knigge and von Lenthe, no longer shows the Kreuzstein. It is therefore believed that it was removed between 1737 and 1756.

In Ditterke there was a shepherd who was traveling between Deister and Leine with a herd of around 300 sheep until 1975.

Ditterke - favored by the good quality of the soil for agriculture - was a farming village. Its inhabitants lived from agriculture. The head tax description of the principalities of Calenberg-Göttingen and Grubenhagen from 1689 lists four full Meier , two half Meier , two courtiers, three Kötner and five co-farmers for Ditterke. Vollmeier were Erich Garben with 93 acres, Johann Hormann with 55 acres, Hans Remmers with 64 acres and Cord Bock. The Halbmeier were Curt Geveken and Dietrich Kokemüller with 32 acres each. The two courtiers, Elmerhus Flohr and Dietrich Lampe, are each listed with about half the land area as the Halbmeier. For one of the Kötner an area of ​​one acre is given, for the others and the co-farmers no areas are given.

Until the end of its independence as a municipality, Ditterke had a part-time mayor, today called mayor. At the end of the 19th century this was the farmer Friedrich Ludwig Adolf Mehring. In 1898 he received an order from the Prussian king.

Until the 1950s there was a grain distillery with the brand “Ditterker Garbenbrand”, which had the status of a “cult schnapps”. This distillery was established in 1766, making it one of the oldest grain distilleries in Calenberg. The brand was sold to the Hardenbergsche Kornbrennerei company in Nörten-Hardenberg at the end of the 1950s and registered as "Garben 32".

On August 1, 1971, the voluntary congregation amalgamated to form the large community of Gehrden.

coat of arms

The draft emblem of Ditterke comes from the in Gadenstedt born and later in Hannover living heraldic and graphic artist Alfred Brecht , who has the coat of arms of Bantorf , Barrigsen , Egestorf has designed and many other villages in the district of Hannover. The approval of the coat of arms was granted on November 29, 1961 by the district president in Hanover.

Ditterke coat of arms
 Blazon : "Four silver clover leaves arrangedin a diamond shape in green ."
Justification of the coat of arms: It was the wish of the community fathers to choose a coat of arms that emphasizes the unchanged character of the rural village, in which the earlier ownership rights, often changing and not completely known, would be ignored. This is how proposals with clover leaves arose, from which the council decided the coat of arms described above.

Culture and sights

Chapel with bell from 1662
Good Ditterke
  • Former school, a half-timbered building that emerged from a chapel. The building has a roof turret in which a bell from 1662 hung.
  • The current chapel in the cemetery was built by the Ditterke community in the late 1940s and handed over to the chapel community. Its original predecessor was destroyed in the 17th century. There is no documentary evidence of this predecessor chapel. The bell hanging in the turret of the chapel used to have its place in the roof turret of the former school and, according to the inscription, dates from 1662. As a memorial to the victims of the two world wars of the 20th century, a large stone cross flanked by two stone pillars was placed in the cemetery " from Thüster Serpelkalkstein of the Upper Jura ”.
  • The Ditterke estate had been owned by Jobst Knigge since 1579. Parts of this courtyard are from the Middle Ages. Particularly noteworthy are the main house in the northern part of the complex from 1794, a longitudinal barn from 1802 and the main house from 1835 in the south, which was changed several times in the 20th century. The bricks used to build the former distillery come from a brick factory built in the south of Ditterke in the 19th century. On this farm, which has been owned by the Garben family since 1640, documents from the farm and about the farm from the time of the Thirty Years War to the present day are kept. An old door inscription on the courtyard reads: In 1641 this courtyard was cremated into the ground by Swedish soldiers.
  • The Lower Saxon monument topography mentions in Volume 13.1 the half-timbered barn, which was converted into an old parting house in the 19th century, Bundesstrasse 4, the two-storey brick-built house built around 1900, Bundesstrasse 10, a so-called Rübenburg , the hall house on Bundesstrasse 13 and the historic bridge over the Haferriede on Landesstrasse 401 to Leveste.
  • A Luther oak was planted in 1883. The occasion was the 400th birthday of Martin Luther. The oak stands next to the previous school. Next to the tree, a contemporary stone with its engraved writing reminds of the planting and the occasion: Glory to God. Keep Luther's pure teaching. In memory of Martin Luther's 400th birthday on November 10, 1883, this oak planted and this stone was set by the Ditterke community. This oak is registered and protected as a natural monument with the designation H164. The description is “The mighty oak, at least 100 years old, has been preserved because of its size, character and beauty. It shapes the Ditterke's entrance to the village. "

Economy and Infrastructure

Numerous commercial operations such as car dealers, metal construction companies, antique dealers, but also companies in the service sector such as advertising agencies, have settled. There are three farms, including one that operates according to organic regulations and, in addition to the usual crops, also grows pumpkins and Christmas trees and sells them directly.
In 2016, a village community center was integrated into the building of the former school owned by the city of Gehrden. It now has two apartments on the top floor and on the ground floor, in addition to the communal facilities, rented commercial space.
Under the stream bed of the Haferriede there is also a gravel deposit in Ditterke with a thickness of 7 to 12 meters. These are glacial deposits of the line, which had a different course during the ice age than it is today. The material consists of chalk sandstone, red sandstone, greywacke and gravel slate.

The federal highway 65 runs through the village without a bypass . A pedestrian pressure light makes it possible to cross this street. Three national bus routes open up Ditterke with local public transport . At the eastern edge of the development, state road 401 leaves the federal road. It leads to Leveste . In the middle of the village, the district road 247 called Kirchwehrener Straße leads north.
