800 years of Erzhausen

In 1197 Erzhausen was first from Pope Celestine III. mentioned as Erdishusen. Erzhausen is a monastery founded by Cistercian monks from the Amelungsborn monastery.

The exact year of establishment of the foreign court in Erzhausen can not be determined exactly, because before in several documents as 1271 and 1272 magister curiae Erdishusen mentioned lay brother made no designated Johann board of the local budget and the Court will not otherwise mentioned. The lay brothers Dietrich 1283 and 1285 and Johann von Stendal in 1303 are documented as later directors of the court. Amelungsborn Monastery acquired the properties in the area of ​​today's Erzhausen from the previously existing Eddingehusen settlement . The monastery constantly expanded the property of the Erzhausen outer courtyard. In 1271 the tithe was bought. As in other areas in northern Germany, Dutch colonists settled in the area around Erzhausen in the 12th century.

From the 15th century onwards, the monastery courtyard and its possessions in Erzhausen were severely weakened by the establishment of new farms, and in the 16th century almost all areas of Erzhausen and the submerged village of Eddingehusen were owned by the four farmers, six large and five small farmers according to Meierrecht passed over. In the monastery courtyard, which also had a chapel, only 16 acres of land and 31 acres of meadows were cultivated.
