history

Around 1718 there was only a single-digit farm in Hahnenknoop. From 1794 a state bog colony was established, so that further settlements could come and the place became a rural community in 1840. In the middle of the 19th century, the moor colony Drostendamm and thus the district of the same name was founded.

Hahnenknoop belonged to the Börde Bramstedt or to the office of Hagen or the districts of Geestemünde and Wesermünde . During the French period , Hahnenknoop was assigned to the Dammhagen municipality for three years.
