Heilshorn , originally a village, is a place in the urban area of Osterholz-Scharmbeck in the district of Osterholz with around 2000 inhabitants.

geography

Heilshorn is about eight kilometers west of Osterholz-Scharmbeck and on the route of the former federal highway 6 (Cuxhaven-Goslar-Leipzig-Görlitz). The village is located northwest of the Stotel forest and is surrounded by the Schönebecker Aue , a Geestrandbach. The valley of the Schönebecker Aue cuts the Osterholzer Geest in the area of ​​Heilshorn in a north-south direction. Bremen Switzerland joins to the west and Lange Heide to the northeast . The district of the same name, Lange Heide , which today forms the most populous part of the village, is about 2 kilometers north of the village on the edge of the forest of the Osterholz-Scharmbeck state forest.

This parish included the places Aumund (until 1871, then its own parish), "bei Lesumstotel" (old name for the later places Loge and Werschenrege), Borchshöhe (is a separate place name from around 1800), Brundorf , Burgdamm , Dunge (also divided into Kleine Dunge and Große Dunge), Eggestedt , Erve (in old entries as an inheritance), Friedrichsdorf (part of Grohn, since around 1830 as a separate place name), Grohn , Habichthorst , Hahnhorst , Hawichhorst , Holthorst , Ihlpohl , Lesum , Lesumbrok (until 1820 to Lesum, then belonged to the parish of Vegesack ), Lesumstotel , Leuchtenburg , Lobbendorf , Loge, Löhnhorst , Marßel , Neu-Lesum, Neu-Schönebeck, Neufähr , Osterhagen , Ovelgönne , Platjenwerbe , Schönebeck , St. Magnus , Stendorf , Stubben , "In front of the Burgdamm", "in front of the Vegesack", Vorwolde , Werschenrege , Wollah (or Willa, Wolda) and Wölpsche .

Until 1949, the parishes of Aumund, Blumenthal , Bruch, Grohn, Hambergen , Lesum, Meyenburg , Osterholz , Ritterhude , Scharmbeck and Schwanewede to the church district .)

The formerly independent municipality of Heilshorn was incorporated into the city of Osterholz-Scharmbeck on March 1, 1974 . In particular, the settlement of US troops in Garlstedt in 1978 in the new Lucius D. Clay barracks led to a strong Americanization of the village; Petrol stations and merchants adjusted to the " American way of life ". After the withdrawal of the Americans, the barracks are now used as a logistics school for the German Armed Forces , hardly anything can be seen today.
