Events

On July 19, 1966, the village center was flooded after a tidal wave up to 4 meters high, which was triggered by a dam breach. There were no human lives to complain about, but there was great property damage and dead cattle.

Infrastructure and economy

The place had its own train station on the Weserbahn , which is no longer served today. In public transport bus routes. The next train stations are in the main town and in Hameln. Federal highway 83 ran through Fischbeck until the bypass was completed . One of the closest motorway exits is Rehren on the federal motorway 2 . The next international airport is near Hanover . Although the place still has a rather rural structure, agriculture no longer plays a role today. Commercial life is shaped by medium-sized craft companies.

There are two facilities of the German Deaf- Blind Relief Organization with dormitories and workshops for multi- handicapped deaf-blind adults.
