Surname

The first written mention of the place name is Hatticheshuson (in 990). Later forms of the name are Hattingeshusen (1071), Hettikishuson (1170), Hettekeshusen (1318, 1416), Hetkeshusen (1506, 1568), Hetkershusen (1511, similar to 1575) and Het (t) gershausen (1625, 1784). The High German ending -hausen instead of Low German -husen appears for the first time in the middle of the 16th century (1566: Hettkershausen ) and more frequently from the 17th century.

The name "Hetjershausen" is composed of the frequent place-name ending -hausen and a personal name, which can be reconstructed from the first written mentions as Hat (t) ik (i) and can be traced back to the personal name stem Hathu - in Old Norse hǫð = fight .

history

It is not known since when Hetjershausen has been continuously settled. The first written mention of the place Hetjershausen comes from a document from Otto III. of August 990. In it, at the instigation of his mother, the Empress Theophanu , the Gandersheim monastery , in which his sister was a canoness, leaves 60 Hufen Landes in various villages, including Hatticheshuson as the southernmost and last-mentioned place . At that time there was an imperial estate in Hetjershausen , which, according to a forged document, was donated to St. Valerius in Goslar by Heinrich IV in 1071 . These possessions can possibly be assigned to the imperial estate complex in Grone. In Hetjershausen, the Lords of Plesse also owned property as an allod in the High Middle Ages . Mention in documents of the Mariengarten monastery show that this monastery also owned Hetjershausen from the middle of the 14th to the 16th century.

In the 15th century the largest courtyards in the town were owned by the citizens of Göttingen, at that time Hetjershausen was part of the Harste district . In the course of the Reformation , the place converted to the Protestant faith in 1536.

During the Thirty Years War the village was badly affected by the sieges of Göttingen, and some residents fled to Göttingen. In 1626, large parts of Hetjershausen were set on fire several times. In 1655 there were still 13 inhabited houses from the farms in Hetjershausen, 16 were burned. Hetjershausen recovered only slowly, from the head tax list of the Harste office from 1675 a population of 45 people can be determined, of which 11 were children from the age of 12, and 14 years later 89 residents are mentioned who are "all in poor condition". The Seven Years' War brought especially high economic losses and severe depletion by confiscation of movable goods and food, feed and by war taxes and debt collections after the war. The expansion of a paved post road from Göttingen to Dransfeld in the second half of the 18th century created jobs and the villages west of Göttingen received better transport links to the city.

After the Napoleonic conquest in 1807, Hetjershausen belonged to the Département Leine of the Kingdom of Westphalia until 1813 and then came to the newly founded Kingdom of Hanover . The Harste office was dissolved by a new division of the country, and in 1822 Hetjershausen came to the Leineberg court, later the Göttingen office. A significant change for the rural population only resulted from the peasant liberation with the passing of a redemption ordinance to abolish the landlord's burdens on July 23, 1833. In Hetjershausen, the tithe was repealed in 1840, the redemption did not take place until 1857. In 1852, the rural community order in the kingdom Hanover issued, after which Hetjershausen received a community committee of 8 people. The construction of the railway line to Hann. Münden, which was completed in 1856 and passed in the immediate vicinity of the village. Many residents of Hetjershausen found work during the construction work.

The administrative districts were abolished in 1885 by a new district order and the district of Göttingen was founded.

The population remained between the middle of the 19th century and the Second World War, with some fluctuations, at around 250 to 280. After the Second World War, around 180 refugees and displaced persons were taken into Hetjershausen, after which the population slowly fell again. In the 1950s and 1960s, numerous infrastructure measures were carried out, such as road construction, the establishment of a water supply in 1952, street lighting in 1953 and the expansion of the sewerage system. At the beginning of the 1960s, the population increased again, and from 1962 the new development areas Schlehenring in the west of the village and the building area Hasenwinkel, which is structurally separated from the town, were settled. At the same time, many of the farms dissolved, so that Hetjershausen developed from an agriculturally oriented village community to a place mainly used for living in Göttingen. In 1968 a new school was built together with Groß Ellershausen and Knutbühren, with a sports area between the towns of Hetjershausen and Groß Ellershausen. On January 1, 1973, Hetjershausen was incorporated into the city of Göttingen. Since the mid-1990s, there has been a slight decrease in the population.

Culture and sights

church

Tower of St. Mary's Church
Marienkirche from the southeast

The only building in Hetjershausen that has been declared a monument is the Evangelical Lutheran Church of St. Mary . The church tower from around 1300 is the oldest part of the church, it measures 7.20 by 6.70 m and has a wall thickness of about 1.70 m (on the ground floor). The lowest floor is covered with a vault and has no direct connection to the upper floors. On the lower floors the tower has only very small slit-like window openings, only the top floor with a chimney has larger windows. The entrance to the upper floors is at a height of 3.65 m from the gallery of the nave. This equipment may indicate its use as a watch tower . The time when the nave was built is not certain. Major renovations were carried out in 1799, including the installation of the window and door with the inscription plaque above and the hipped gable roof. The sacristy in the east was demolished in 1966 and rebuilt.

altar

In the church there is a late Gothic carved altar, which was made by Bartold Kastrop in 1509 and rebuilt and restored several times. It could be dated and assigned based on an inscription behind the carved main figure. Today the altar again shows in the middle part a 1.37 m high figure of Mary with a child in a golden halo on a crescent moon, next to which there are two smaller carved figures of saints arranged one above the other on both sides: on the left side Katharina (above) and Martin (below ), on the right side Maria Magdalena (above) and Anna selbdritt (below). The carved figures of the 12 apostles , which are also smaller, are arranged on the inside of the wings ; all figures stand in front of a punched gold background. The outer sides of the wing show extremely ruinous paintings with scenes from the life of the Virgin, which are ascribed to the master of the Hieronymites altar in Northeim. The altar was dismantled during the church renovation in 1799 and the individual parts were used to decorate a baroque pulpit altar wall. From 1936 to 1938 it was restored in Hanover and then re-erected as a triptych . Further minor restorations on the altar were carried out in 1969 and 1985.
