Local history

In 1826 the moor commissioner Friedrich Witte, a successor to Findorff , developed plans to settle the Fehrenbruch moor . It had good prerequisites for this; it was a bog overgrown with bushes and scrub.

In 1830 ten people were selected to colonize the country. With those I was mainly second or third farmer sons who could no longer inherit the father's farm and cottagers from Farven, but there was also a tailor from Anderlingen among them. Each received a cultivation site with 15 hectares of land on which Hallenhäuser in framework construction were built. At first only buckwheat was sown , later also potatoes and rye ; the local peat deposits were used exclusively for heating.

Initially only houses were built on the east side of the street, it wasn't until 1921 that the first house was built on the west side. Johann Behnken ran a shoemaker's workshop there ; after his bankruptcy, Diedrich bought Blancken from Gnarrenburg , who ran an inn there with his wife . The barn next door was converted into a dance hall. The inn existed until 1967. The post office was also located here until 1970 .

In the first World War claimed five soldiers in the second world war four soldiers from Fehr break.

During the war, prisoners of war had to work on the farms in Fehrenbruch; they also protect the residents from the prisoners released from the Sandbostel camp , who looted after they were liberated.

With the expellees , the population suddenly rose to 130.
