geography

location

Hagen Castle in the Bremen region

The municipality of Hagen in Bremen is located on the A 27 between Bremerhaven and Bremen .

Mainly due to the influx from these two big cities, their population has increased considerably in the past few decades. The ongoing designation of building areas is associated with increasing urban sprawl. Another negative consequence is the increased volume of individual traffic caused by many new residents commuting by car.

The Drepte , a small tributary of the Weser, flows through Hagen .

Community structure

The municipality consists of 16 localities and their districts:

history

Surname

Hag is derived from the Germanic haga or hagaz and means fencing or enclosure . It also means protection as in being cared for and comfortable . A hag was a piece of land enclosed by hedges. The Middle Low German word component -ha (a) g (en) in field or place names indicates such a type of settlement. The name or the suffix Hagen is often found in Lower Saxony , Westphalia and the Mecklenburg areas populated by them .

colonization

The Germanic Chauken settled the area on both sides of the Lower Weser before the birth of Christ . Saxon tribes probably conquered large parts of Lower Germany from 300/400 AD and the Chauken people merged into the Saxon tribe.

Around the time from 900 to 1000 the first known church was built during the missionary work of the area in Bramstedt . The place Dorfhagen was first mentioned as Hagen 1110 in a document.

Archdiocese of Bremen

Archdiocese of Bremen

From the 11th century the diocese of Bremen managed to enlarge its territory. For several centuries, Hagen was part of the Archbishopric of Bremen , which is why it is still called Hagen in Bremen today . To consolidate the rule under Archbishop Hartwig II. (1184-1207) the castle was built in Hagen to fight the rebellious Stedinger farmers. It was called Castrum Hagen . The citizens spoke of Burghagen . The neighboring Hagen has been called Dorfhagen since then. From now on, the history of the community is linked to the history of Hagen Castle. The castle was probably a half-timbered building and was located in the Drepte river valley . It was difficult to take in the middle of a floodplain. It was supplied by a dam. In 1212 the rebellious farmers in Ostersted besieged the castle. In the first half of the 13th century the castle was already made of bricks . At the dam of the castle a first village settlement was built, which was initially called Dammhagen .

The Archbishop of Bremen Gerhard II appointed a Vogt for administration and jurisdiction . He enlarged the bailiwick in 1248 to include the Bramstedt Börde . The later core of the office of Hagen developed. As Oberdeichgraf in Osterstade , the Vogt also exercised market jurisdiction . The bailiff lived in what would later become the forester's house. From Hagen the archbishops and their court hunted in the nearby woods. An oak at that time near the castle, which served as a court oak and was legendary as a staleke , was mentioned in the document from 1248, which reads: "iuxta castrum Hagen prope quercum vulgariter staleke nuncupatum" (near the castle by the oak popularly called Staleke ). Many of Hagen's bailiffs have been handed down. It was probably a Vogt from Cassebruch who managed to drive the Bremen nobility of the archbishopric from the city for some time in 1307 and to take the castle.

In 1362 Archbishop Albert II (1359-1395) defeated the administrator of the archbishopric, Moritz von Oldenburg, after the Hoya feud . This withdrew to his seat at Hagen Castle. In 1389 Albert II pledged the castle to the Count of Oldenburg for 500  gold guilders .

Today's castle was built between 1502 and 1507 at the latest. The client for the new building was Archbishop Johann Rode , who lived at the castle from 1506 to 1511. From 1546 to 1547 the castle was besieged and damaged in the Schmalkaldic War and in 1547 in the Munster feud. Archbishop Heinrich von Sachsen-Lauenburg , one of the first Protestant bishops, was splendidly married in 1575 at Castle Anna von Broich, daughter of the second mayor of Cologne. The archbishops of Bremen and their entourage often stayed in Hagen. Around 1600 lived in the castle and in Hagen the bailiff (formerly Vogt), the house bailiff, guards, porters, fishermen, shepherds, servants and maids as well as 86 Erbmeier with their families. There was a large tithe barn next to the castle , which was demolished in 1948.

The office of Hagen was named before 1550 and administered from the castle. Since 1648 the office was the seat of the Swedish, Hanoverian and Prussian officials. In 1885 the Hagen office was dissolved.

Sweden time

Kingdom of Sweden

In 1644 there were 200 Swedes in the castle during the Thirty Years War . Imperial troops conquered them and took the Swedes prisoner. After the war, the Archdiocese of Bremen became part of the Duchy of Bremen . Since 1648 Hagen belonged to the Swedish-ruled imperial territory of Bremen-Verden . Hagen became the seat of a Swedish bailiff and in 1698 an office building was built. Queen Christina of Sweden donated the castle to the Imperial Councilor Rosenhane.

Time in the Kingdom of Hanover

Hanover

The Swedish crown sold the duchy and the castle to the Electorate of Braunschweig-Lüneburg (1815 Kingdom of Hanover ) around 1719/1720 . The castle was now temporarily used as a prison. In 1720 Hagen became an electoral Hanoverian office and kept the Staleke in the coat of arms until the Prussian era. The place was now called Amthagen . The castle served as a courthouse, prison, and residence. In 1778 the Ritter'sche Windmühle was built as the oldest mill in the area. In 1786 a Jewish cemetery was named in Hagen. During the French era , the region on the coast belonged directly to France as a department of the mouth of the Weser from 1811 to 1813/14 .

The serfdom was formally in the Kingdom of Hanover until 1833. In 1830, the farmers of the annual fees could in Hagen against payment of 25 times the amount "ransom" so acquire their farms as property. In 1846 the bailiff lived in the castle again. And a new office building with a prison was built. Around 1840, the villages of Altluneberg, Beverstedt, Bramstedt, Cassebruch, Dammhagen and Sandstedt with around 80 people belonged to the Jewish community of Hagen. In 1852 the district court of Hagen is founded in Bremen . In 1856 the Amtssparkasse was founded by Theodor Christian Fachtmann . In 1861 the merchant Abraham Gottschalk founded a synagogue , which was set on fire in 1938. In the middle of the 18th century, an inn was built on the outskirts of Sandstedt , a club bar that was named Ritters Gasthof in 1898 , burned down in 1945 and housed the Hagen private school in 1949. The Alte Amtssparkasse was founded in 1856 . Today there are branches of the Volksbank and the Kreissparkasse Wesermünde-Hadeln .

Memorial plaque in the street “Amtsdamm” at the place where the Hulla works were.

Prussian times

District of Wesermünde

In 1866 the Kingdom of Hanover came to Prussia as the Province of Hanover . During the administrative reform in 1885, the Hagen office was dissolved and part of the Geestemünde district and in 1932, with Lehe, was merged to form the Wesermünde district . But Hagen remained the place of the court, so it continued to have a central character. The courthouse and prison had already been built in Hanoverian times. The head forester of Axstedt now had his official seat in the office building in Hagen. In 1897 the neo-Gothic Martin Luther Church was inaugurated. The castle and park were inaccessible to the public and were used by the administration of justice. The tranquil Hagen developed only slowly.

In the First World War , 280 men died from the Hagen office. From 1914 to 1918, up to 1,000 men were imprisoned in the Cassebruch POW camp. In the period of inflation in 1923/24, Hagen issued emergency money in the form of 50 pfennig vouchers. The Hulla works existed from 1920 to 1930 and produced motorcycles.

time of the nationalsocialism

Gravestone at the Jewish cemetery in Hagen

During the National Socialist era , the NSDAP received 281 votes from 395 voters in Hagen.

The Jews resident in Hagen (1913: 77 contributors) had to suffer emigration, deportation and murder. The synagogue from 1881 was burned down in 1938. The Jewish cemetery on the outskirts on the way to Dorfhagen was preserved. From the families Goldmann, Goldschmidt, Leeser, Wolff, Freudenberg, Gottschalck u. a. announce the gravestones here. A tombstone in the Jewish cemetery refers to the fact that “under National Socialist rule” people “had to lose their lives because they were Jews”.

At the end of the Second World War , Hagen was occupied by US troops after thousands of concentration camp inmates had previously been driven through the town. Refugee groups came from West and East Prussia and many settled here, including what was later to become the West Prussian settlement .

Lower Saxony

Lower Saxony

Hagen came to the state of Lower Saxony in 1946 . The Reich Labor Service camp in the direction of Wulsbüttel became a refugee camp. The RAD barracks became permanent houses and the Hagen camp became the Hagen-West Prussian settlement . The population of Hagen increased between 1935 and 1946 from 778 to 1400 inhabitants. The meeting point was the formerly known, now defunct Hagen Hotel and Gasthaus Auf dem Keller . In Dorfhagen, the large farmhouses of Puvogel and Götschen burned down in the 1950s. The Hermann-Allmers-Schule (a secondary and secondary school) and the Waldschule Hagen-Beverstedt high school developed in the post-war period, while the one-class village school in Dorfhagen was dissolved in the 1960s. The Hagen home magazine Unter der Staleke has been published since 1965 . In 1971, the joint municipality of Hagen was formed.

District of Cuxhaven
