history

In 1965 the previously independent towns of Edemissen, Alvesse, Blumenhagen, Mödesse, Voigtholz-Ahlemissen and, since 1971, Oedesse were merged to form the joint municipality of Edemissen.

The integrated community was dissolved in the course of the regional reform in Lower Saxony . Their localities were merged on March 1, 1974 with the previously independent communities Abbensen, Eddesse, Eickenrode, Oelerse (previously Burgdorf district ), Plockhorst, Rietze, Wehnsen and Wipshausen to form the unified community of Edemissen. Ankensen, Berkhöpen and Oelheim are parts of the village of Edemissen.

The municipalities of Eltze and Dedenhausen were spun off into the municipality of Uetze in the district of Hanover and the municipality of Ohof in the municipality of Meinersen in the district of Gifhorn .

religion

Evangelical Lutheran

The villages of Alvesse, Blumenhagen (with Klein Blumenhagen), Edemissen (with Ankensen, Berkhöpen and Oelheim), Mödesse, Oedesse (with Klein Oedesse), Plockhorst, Voigtholz-Ahlemissen and Wehnsen belong to the parish of the Evangelical Lutheran Martin Luther Parish of Edemissen . The places Alvesse, Blumenhagen, Plockhorst, Voigtholz-Ahlemissen and Wehnsen have their own chapel, where a service is held once a month.

Until 1894, the Abbensen chapel community was also part of it - which became an independent parish. Eixe with Sundern, which is located in front of the “gates” of Peine, was connected with Edemissen until 1867 and came to Vöhrum as a parish priest .

Since the beginning of the 18th century, the parish of Edemissen belonged to the Sievershausen inspection , which was dissolved in 1965 and brought about a further reorganization in the Peine parish. Edemissen has been part of the Peine parish since then. In the area of ​​today's Edemissen parish there are also the Evangelical Lutheran parishes in Abbensen, Eddesse, Eickenrode and Wipshausen (with Rietze).

Roman Catholic

Corpus Christi Church

A Roman Catholic parish had not existed in Edemissen or in the northern district of Peine from the Reformation until the 20th century. Only with the influx of bombed out, refugees and displaced persons did an ever-growing community develop in the post-war period after the Second World War .

Services were initially carried out in private apartments, dining rooms, halls or even facilities of the Protestant church. Not until 1959 was the Corpus Christi Church, a Catholic church built in Edemissen. In 1968 a bell tower was added. Before it was profaned in 1999, the Catholic St. Petrus Church in Eltze also belonged to the parish in Edemissen. Since 2006 the Catholic parish of Edemissen has been part of the parish " To the Holy Angels " based in Peine .

Culture and sights

  • The branch office of the Edemissen registry office on the Ankensen manor has been a special feature since 2003 . Couples wishing to marry can get married here in the restored bakery. The former Guts-Bakhaus from 1886 - many consider this gem to be a chapel - is probably the work of the consistorial architect Conrad Wilhelm Hase , Hanover.
  • The Martin Luther Church consists of a tower that was built around 1200 and the nave built in 1691. The ceiling of the baroque nave was painted in 2002 by Felix M. Furtwängler. This painting is based on biblical texts. A special feature of art history is that many biblical passages from the Pauline letters are represented, including Gal 5,1 “Christ has set you free to be free” and 1Cor 15,24 “It is sown perishable and it will be resurrected imperishable”. There is an illustrated book on the nationally perceived painting.
  • The rectory was built in 1737.
  • At the Gografenhof 'from 1737 there is the tithe store from 1766, in which the crops that had to be delivered as tithe by the taxable farmers were previously stored .
  • The Hiete warehouse from 1573 is also a listed building, as is the entire Wipperstrasse on which it stands.
  • This also includes the Lower Saxony house Wipperhof from 1768 and Smees-Spieker from 1757.

Green spaces and recreation

The municipality of Edemissen has well-developed cycle paths and the side streets and paths are well maintained. So it is fun to drive "over the villages" and to explore "one or the other" story. In the town hall of the community there is information material on the history of oil or potash and other interesting topics in the area. In summer, the swimming lakes in Wehnsen, Wipshausen or Eixe invite you to cool off. The Berkhöpen and the Tadensen are two parts of the forest that can be explored on foot or by bike. But also between the individual villages there is always forest. In the surrounding villages, equestrian enthusiasts feel very much in good hands. An 18-hole golf course is available. For river hikers, the Fuhse , which crosses the municipality near Abbensen and Oelerse, is definitely attractive when the water level is good.
