history

Lutheran Church in Hatshausen

Hatshausen is mentioned for the first time in the Münster parish register of the 15th century, as "Harstahusum".

On January 21, 1458, Chief Broder Galtisna zu Hatshausen swore the original feud to the Hamburg councilor and bailiff of Emdem, Wigershop. Galtisna swears that he will keep the peace and not build any log houses or fortresses in Hatshausen or anywhere else in Friesland. He also swears that he will not come to Emden without express permission. If he acts against this oath, all his goods should be forfeited. Memmo Eggena zu Timmel vouches for Broder Galtisna to the Hamburgers that this oath will be kept. The vernacular tells about Broder Galtisna that he is said to have been up to mischief around 1400. Allegedly he favored the pirates and left them the later Vorwerk Sieve of the Johanniterkloster Hasselt as a hideout and storage place for looted goods.

Around 1613 the preacher Johann Fabricius was active as a pastor in the community. He is considered the discoverer of sunspots and wrote a Latin script about it, "De macullis in sole observatis", which he had printed in 1611 in Wittenberg. A memorial was erected to him and his father David Fabricius in Osteel in 1892.

The preacher Anton Christian Bolenius worked in the community from 1707 to 1716. He introduced the peat bog and with it buckwheat cultivation in East Frisia.

The Maria Magdalena Church dates from 1783 and was built axially on the border with Ayenwolde .

The formerly independent municipality has formed the municipality of Moormerland since the municipality reform that came into force on January 1, 1973, together with ten other villages.

politics

Politically, Hatshausen is represented by a 7-member local council.

The local mayor is Karl-Heinz Horst (CDU).
