history

A historical source for the administrative structure of a district is a document that Heinrich the Lion had issued on September 13, 1148 in Heinkenborstel. The witness of the certification was the state judge Vergotus, son of Daso de Ennige (Innien).

Legends and founding myths

Heinkenborstel was called Heikenbutle when Heinrich the Lion camped there in 1148 after a campaign against the Dithmarschers. "Butle" or "botl" is synonymous with "büttel", that is, an expanded individual courtyard. A man by the name of Heike will have expanded this. Heike is an old personal name. In Low German one still says "Heikenborstel" today. In 1455 it was called "Hinrikesborstel". Otto Ranzau zu Krummendiek then sold "the wolt tome Hinrikesborstel" to the chapter on Eutin. The Low German "borstel" originally referred to the stable of a bur, that is, a peasantry, namely for sheep and cattle. So the farmers of the primeval village had a fenced-in place (Burstall) for their cattle, and so "butle" has disappeared and "borstel" has remained. Heinkenborstel is therefore "Heike's residence" or "Burstall near Heike's residence".

In the Westerholz there was a stone that was so big that a team with two horses could have turned on it. The stone was thrown there by a giant. Once he was standing on the Boxberg near Homfeld and there he saw that a church was being built in Nortorf. He wanted to break it. He picked up a large stone, put it in his sling, and swung it over his head. But then one strand tore him and the stone flies over to the Westerholz. It was lying there for a long time, so Breitenstein was also called the forest. The hand could be seen on the stone where the giant touched it.

economy

The municipal area is predominantly agricultural, but tourism is also becoming increasingly important.
