history

The first written mention of Drispenstedt dates from the year 1193. During the Braunschweiger Stadtfehde it was destroyed in 1493, during the Hildesheimer Stiftsfehde in 1522 it was sacked and its fields devastated. After the Reformation was introduced in Hildesheim's St. Andrew's Church in 1542 , the place became Protestant and initially remained so despite ongoing attempts at recatholization. During the Thirty Years War the official denomination changed several times, at the end of the war the place was again Catholic . In 1848 the population was 193, in 1900 there were 509 inhabitants. The seal, which the community held until the end of its independence, was given in 1933 when a community coat of arms was introduced in all communities in the district. It goes back to a seal from 1297 showing a stylized rose. 1938 was in the city of Hildesheim incorporated . This showed in December 1959 an extensive building area . From 1960 onwards, over 1,800 new apartments were built in Neu-Drispenstedt . The majority of these apartments are looked after by the non-profit construction company ; around 5000 people of various nationalities live in them. On December 31, 2005 Drispenstedt had a total of 5748 inhabitants.
