NN ) to the north, the Edesheimer forest (max. 270 m above sea level. NN ) to the east, the North bucket urban forest in the south and the leash valley with the North Seenplatte in West to about 110 to 150 m above sea level. NN .

The federal highway 3 , which here represents a section of the German half-timbered road , runs directly west of Edesheim and connects the federal highway 7 (junction Northeim-Nord) in the south with the Northeim district of Hohnstedt in the north. The high-speed line Hanover – Würzburg and the Hannöversche Südbahn , which are linked south of the town at the “Edesheim branch”, also run west of Edesheim . The former Edesheim train station no longer exists.

history

The earliest mention of Edesheim takes place in 1141, when that village is also mentioned in connection with goods that belonged to the Northeim St. Blasien monastery . In prehistoric times, the first residents settled at this point, which was outside the floodplain of the Leine. Judging by the name Edesheim, it is obvious that a large manor is to be seen as the first essential part of the village, as the prefix mentioned in the documents means Ed , Ad and Od Gut. The place name varies in the earliest times in the testimonies, among other things, between Edeshem , Edighem or Edessen , but the syllable Ed remains an essential component. The earliest occupations were fishing, hunting, cattle raising and some agriculture. In the 19th century, bone and tooth fragments of a woolly rhinoceros were found in a gravel pit near Edesheim, and investigations initiated at the site uncovered further finds.

On March 1, 1974 Edesheim was incorporated into the district town of Northeim.
