Hambühren is a municipality in the district of Celle in Lower Saxony .
geography
Hambühren is a good 6 km west of the city center of Celle . The Aller flows through the municipality in the north.
Community structure
The municipality of Hambühren consists of the two localities Hambühren Dorf (marked with Hambühren I ) and Hambühren Siedlung (marked with Hambühren II ) from the villages of Allerhop, Oldau , Ovelgönne , Rixförde and Schönhop.
history
Hambühren was first mentioned in a document in 1235. Oldau is mentioned in a document in 1378. There it was mentioned as "evening clocks". Ovelgönne was founded with the establishment of the potash mine , with the first documentary mention as a forester in the early 17th century. On October 13, 1857, Hambühren fell victim to a great fire.
During the Second World War , an ammunition plant was built nearby, in which mainly forced laborers had to work (see also Hambühren concentration camp ). After the Second World War, many of the old ammunition bunkers were converted into residential buildings. The result was Hambühren II. War refugees from the Reinsehlen reception center near Schneverdingen were resettled there in 1950 . Many settled here forever.
The municipality of Hambühren was created on January 1, 1970 as part of a regional reform .
religion
The Evangelical Lutheran Resurrection Congregation has had its church since 1950 in a former warehouse of the ammunition facility (Kirchstrasse 5/7), see also the section on culture and sights
In 1950/51 the Catholic Emergency Church of the Holy Guardian Angel was built, also in a building that had previously served as an ammunition warehouse (Kirchstrasse 9/11). In 1987 this church was replaced by the new Holy Guardian Angel building on Eichendorffstrasse, which still exists today . The old church building in Kirchstrasse was rebuilt and is now used for profane purposes. The parish also includes the St. Raphael day-care center and the churches in Wietze and Winsen .

Culture and sights
- The last "bunker church" in Germany is located in Hambühren, the Church of the Resurrection. The former workhouses of the Hambühren air ammunition plant from 1940 were converted into a church in 1950. After the construction of the bell tower in 1963, the building was declared a historical monument in 1992.
- In the village of Oldau, on an island that was created by the canalization of the Aller, there is the only hydroelectric power station in northern Germany that has largely been preserved in its original state. The power plant was built in 1911. It was used exclusively to generate electricity. In 1972 the plant was initially shut down. In 1983, however, it was reconnected to the grid, and electricity has been generated here again since then.
Aller – Fuhse Canal
The Aller-Fuhse Canal runs to the east of the municipality . The municipal road that runs over this canal leads over what is probably the oldest arched bridge in the district of Celle (built in 1795, renovated in 1995).
