Geography and traffic

The municipality is connected to Elmshorn, Uetersen and Wedel and thus to the greater Hamburg area by regular bus services in the Hamburg Transport Association.

history

Groß Nordende used to be a settlement that formed in the north of Uetersen . Groß Nordende was first mentioned in 1584. From 1787, Groß Nordende belonged to the Uetersen District Bailiwick, which in 1835 was divided into three districts. Including the Groß Nordend district, as a result of which the community enjoyed a high reputation as a district administration and a certain degree of independence. The community had to take part in several wars and in 1735 the people of the Geestland had to earn their living as day laborers. At that time, the cowherd was a kind of "official" and enjoyed a certain reputation in the villages, especially since he replaced the veterinarian as an expert on cattle diseases and medicinal herbs. He presumably also treated the residents according to the same “recipes”. After the division of the “Almende” and the rise of agriculture, the office of community pastor gradually came to an end.
