history

Originally, the Fahrenhorst was a Tülau parcel .

After 1520, Fahrenhorst, earlier spelling Vahrenhorst , was built about half a kilometer south of Tülau as the outworks of Brome Castle. Land was taken over from the Schürnau desert . From around 1600 more houses were built for servants and farmers, and Fahrenhorst developed into a settlement.

Fritz V. von der Schulenburg († 29 July 1505), Ritter on Beetzendorf and Brome was, of Duke Henry I the Burg Brome belehnt Service. He was married to Armgard von Alvensleben († after August 30, 1505), a daughter of Busso VII. Von Alvensleben and Mette von Alten .

His son Fritz VII von der Schulenburg († 1558) sold Brome and other surrounding villages of the court Brome to Christoph von dem Knesebeck at the end of 1548 . Among other things, Tülau with Fahrenhorst was not affected by the sale, where Fritz VII. Took up residence on Fahrenhorst and an independent court was set up.

Fritz VII von der Schulenburg was married to Anna von Cramm from the Oelber family (mentioned in a document from 1518–1560). The marriage had ten children. Anna, the only daughter, and the sons Berndt, Burchard, Daniel and Fritz died early. The sons Curt and Levin drowned in the moat in Brome in 1548.

The son Heinrich VII von der Schulenburg auf Fahrenhorst (* 1527 in Brome; † December 11, 1613 in Fahrenhorst) married Anna von Campe auf Wedesbüttel at an advanced age in 1583 , this marriage remained childless. The son Christoph VIII von der Schulenburg (* 1530 in Brome; † in December 1613) remained unmarried and died a week after his brother Heinrich. Both brothers were buried in the church in Altendorf . As a result, the Fahrhorst family branch of the Schulenburg in the male line became extinct .

As early as 1600 Council Chancellor and Privy Councilor Friedrich von Weyhe from Celle , from the Lüneburg noble family von Weyhe, was enfeoffed with the Fahrhorst estate by Duke Ernst II . This fiefdom was restricted in 1602 to the effect that it would only take effect after the death of Heinrich von der Schulenburg.

After the death of the two von der Schulenburg brothers in 1613, a gentleman von Mandelsloh took over the property that had probably been pledged to him beforehand.

In 1643 the estate and aristocratic court of Tülau-Fahrenhorst were handed over to Friedrich von Weyhe (* 1602 in Eimke ; † 1676, buried in Altendorf), presumably after the Lord von Mandelsloh had died. His father of the same name, to whom Fahrenhorst was awarded in 1600, had also died in the meantime.

In 1737, the manor house, which still exists today, was built in Fahrenhorst under Johann Wilhelm von Weyhe (1685–1752), and in the early 1920s it was expanded by Carl Ernst Wilhelm von Weyhe (1857–1935). His descendants still own the estate today.

In 1810, during the French era , the Tülau court was assigned to the canton of Wittingen in the Nieder-Elbe department. In 1811 there were 118 inhabitants in Fahrenhorst. In 1830 and 1863, two fires destroyed many houses in Fahrenhorst, but the manor house was spared.

During the administrative reform of 1859, the patrimonial court of Fahrenhorst including the former aristocratic court of Brome was attached to the office of Isenhagen . From its establishment in 1866 until its dissolution in 1932, Fahrenhorst belonged to the Isenhagen district , since then Fahrenhorst has belonged to the Gifhorn district.
