history
Großenaspe was first mentioned in a document in 1343. The name is probably derived from the tree species aspen .
In 1860 a ring was found while plowing, which consists of a metal alloy of gold and silver and is hollow. It dates from the Bronze Age and is known as the Eidring , although contrary to earlier beliefs it was not used for this purpose. Today it is in the State Museum in Gottorf Castle and is depicted in the municipal coat of arms.
The place also became famous for the construction of the octagonal Katharinenkirche , which was commissioned by the Russian Tsarina Catherine II in 1772 and named after her.
