Hetlingen ( Low German Hetl'n ) is a community in the Pinneberg district in Schleswig-Holstein and is known as a band rider village in the Haseldorfer Marsch .
Geography and traffic
Hetlingen is located about 7 kilometers northwest of Wedel directly on the state protection dike on the Elbe in the Haseldorfer Marsch. The federal road 431 runs to the east from Wedel via Uetersen to Elmshorn .
Hetlingen is connected to the communities of Holm and Haseldorf by Landesstraße 261 . There is a bus line in the Hamburger Verkehrsverbund (HVV) to Wedel and Uetersen . Hetlingen also includes the Hetlinger Schanze, Giesensand, Idenburg and Julssand , as well as the Hetlinger Moor, which is located in the area of the Holmer Sandberge .
history
The Geesthügel Hetlingen (today the street Cranz ) and Eckhorst (formerly also called Jchhorst ) have been inhabited continuously since the Saxon times. They offered themselves as a settlement site, as the march up to the dike in 1709 was always threatened by storm surges and floods. The district of Freiheit was added later, the name of which disappeared again in the mid-1950s when the first street names emerged.
Hetlingen was first mentioned in a document in 1239. The name of the place probably comes from a former clan called Hetilo .
In 1873 the Meierhof Idenburg was incorporated. Idenburg was first mentioned in 1650 in a document from Detlev von Ahlefeld, in which he named the farm after his wife Ida . In 1878 the former island of Giesensand was added. In 1916 a dirt road was laid between Haseldorf and Hetlingen, which was expanded into a paved road in 1952. In 1928, the disbanded manor district of Hetlinger Schanze with Julssand and the domains of Hetlinger Schanzensand and Twielenfleter Sand were incorporated into the village.
On January 3, 1976, due to a dike breach near Hetlingen, the entire Haseldorfer Marsch was flooded in a severe storm surge . There was property damage in the three-digit million range. As if by a miracle, no one died.
Hetlinger Schanze
King Christian V built a fortification on the Elbe in 1659, the Hetlinger Schanze. It was dissolved again in 1768.

Blazon : "Above a raised blue corrugated shield foot, in which three silver chess flowers, placed diagonally to the left, with red-silver scabbed flowers, two green pollarded willows next to each other in silver."
Child and Youth Advisory Board
A child and youth council has existed in the community since May 2014.
economy
The largest sewage treatment plant in Schleswig-Holstein is located in the municipality . It disposes of around 100,000 m³ of waste water (740,000 population equivalents in 2004) from more than 450,000 people and industrial companies in the Pinneberg district, in Hamburg-West and in some municipalities in the Segeberg and Steinburg districts .
Nevertheless, the agricultural character clearly predominates and the community is also an important destination for local recreation. The nearby beach at Hetlinger Schanze attracts many guests from Hamburg and the entire Pinneberg district.
Parish
The chapel in Hetlingen is on the main road. It belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran parish of Sankt Gabriel Haseldorf -Hetlingen. The chapel was consecrated in 1971. Until then there was no church building in Hetlingen.
Landmarks and sights
A landmark is the chess flower ( Fritillaria meleagris ), which is also called chessboard flower or lapwing egg and is included in the municipal coat of arms.
Two high-voltage lines cross the Elbe near Hetlingen ( Elbe crossing 1 and Elbe crossing 2 ). With a height of 227 m, the electricity pylons are the highest in Europe. Because the power cables sag heavily due to the length of the route and large ships pass the Elbe, the masts had to be built so extremely high.
