Großgoltern ( Low German Groten-Goltern ) is a northeastern district of the town of Barsinghausen on the outskirts of the Hanover region in Lower Saxony . His main road meets the B 65 in Nordgoltern , which u. a. connects to the A2 .

history

The place was first mentioned in a document in 1158 as the "Golturne", which involved paying off the tithe . On the occasion of the settlement of a dispute by Bishop Anno zu Minden in Wunstorf, the oldest documentary mention of the Goltern Church came on December 29, 1181 . In 1188 Goltern was mentioned as a place of jurisdiction, where the 800-year-old linden tree in front of the church tower was probably the meeting place.

On July 1, 1968, the municipalities of Eckerde , Göxe , Großgoltern, Nordgoltern and Stemmen merged to form the municipality of Goltern . On March 1, 1974, as part of the regional reform in Lower Saxony, the municipality of Goltern was incorporated into the town of Barsinghausen, which today has 18 districts.

coat of arms

The draft emblem of Großgoltern comes from the in Gadenstedt born and later in Hannover living heraldic and graphic artist Alfred Brecht , who has the coat of arms of Aligse , Bantorf , Barrigsen has designed and many other villages in the district of Hannover. The approval of the coat of arms was granted on March 18, 1960 by the district president in Hanover.

Blazon : "In red a silver tower with a canopy and parapet, accompanied by two golden linden leaves ."

Justification for the coat of arms: Even in the early days of the coat of arms, the noble family "de Golthorne", named after the place, led a Roman fortress tower with a tinned platform in the early Gothic seal, undoubtedly the watchtower on Helweg, under whose protection their goods were. The oldest seals of the noblemen Ludolf and Thiedericus de Golthorne, dating from 1314, and those of the later generation from 1340 clearly prove it. The two golden linden leaves indicate the confirmed place of justice from 1188.
