geography

Neighboring municipalities and neighboring districts

Rissen borders the town of Wedel in the west and the municipality of Appen and the towns of Schenefeld and Pinneberg in the north , all in Schleswig-Holstein . Neighboring Hamburg districts are Hamburg-Sülldorf in the east and Hamburg-Blankenese in the southeast. The Lower Elbe lies in the south of Rissen . The border with Lower Saxony and the remaining part of the border with Schleswig-Holstein runs on the Elbe island Neßsand (Neßsand is the only accessible place where the states of Hamburg, Schleswig-Holstein and Lower Saxony meet); beyond this is the municipality of Jork . The Wedeler Au flows through Rissen in the north .

Expansion of the district area

The district extends from north to south about three times as long as from west to east.

origin of the name

Rissen means roughly "houses in the bushes and bushes" or "houses in the birch forest". The vegetation of the former moor area consisted of " Ried " (= reed grass) and "Ries" (= bushes and shrubs), which were probably the inspiration for the name. The ending "sen" corresponds to the old "husen" of the seventh to ninth centuries.

history

Rissen was first mentioned on April 29, 1255 as "Risne". It belonged for centuries to Schauenburg County Holstein-Pinneberg and thus from 1640 to Duchy of Holstein , which in 1460 since the personal union of the Danish kings ruled. Thus, after the German-Danish War in 1864 , Rissen fell to Austria , but became Prussian with the end of the Austro-Prussian War in 1866. Rissen became an independent municipality in 1876 with around 300 inhabitants. In 1927 ( Groß-Altona-Gesetz ), Rissen was incorporated into the Prussian city of Altona / Elbe, which now has around 2,000 inhabitants, and with this in 1938 it became a suburb of Hamburg.

Cracks 1900

By 1835, the Godeffroy merchant family had acquired and reforested 3,300 acres of land. As a result, the moor, heather and sand landscape slowly turned into a forest. At that time there were only a few farmers in Rissen. After it fell to Prussia in 1866, the number of inhabitants grew steadily. Around 1900 it had around 1,000 and around 1945 around 6,000 residents. This was decisive in 1953 for the construction of residential areas such as the Mechelnbusch, which caused the population to grow to around 9,000 for the first time. In the 1960s, other housing developments such as the Niflandring and Nagelshof were built. In 2005 the population density was 863 inhabitants per km², which means that in 2005 14,375 people lived in cracks.

Today Rissen is characterized by the predominance of open single house developments on, in some cases, very large, park-like properties; Apartment buildings (up to eight floors) can only be found on Niflandring, in Grete-Nevermann-Weg, Nagelshof and occasionally in Tinsdaler Heideweg and Wedeler Landstrasse.
