history

Hetthorn was a Vorwerk of the manor Holte . The origin of the place name comes from the term "He het dat Horn". The horn was used by the cattle herders and swineherd. "Hethorn" was later written.

"Hethorn" was named for the first time in 1382 in ancient scriptures. The owners at that time were the Knappen Bucket von Würden and Allrich Vyghe . They sold the manor to Carsten von Düring (the younger). The property was bought in 1500 by Johann von Behr, who was later buried in a stone grotto in the garden of the estate. The legacy passed on to Jost von Behr, Jacob von Behr and Barthold von Behr. Barthold von Behr sold to Johann von Hattorf, who passed on to Philipp von Hattorf. Philipp von Hattorf was accepted into the knighthood in 1730 . The manor was bought in 1764 by von dem Knesebeck , in 1836 by Freiherr von Hodenhagen and in 1839 by the bourgeois Allrich Becken. In 1890 Allrich Becken and his son founded a peat litter factory in the Stotel district, which was sold to Gerhard Ahrends in 1913. Allrich Becken handed the manor over to his son, who then divided the estate between his three sons in 1905. Two pension farms were founded. One of these farms is still run successfully today. The Ahrends peat factory became a bog settlement in 1924, which was sold in 1964. Two of the Rittergut-Höfe (Hetthorn numbers 1 and 16) were foreclosed in 1932 and were taken over by the Stotel savings and loan fund. The Hetthorn farm number 16 was sold in 1933. This farm was managed by the new owner until 1999. Then the land was leased. From the second farm of the former manor, Hetthorn number 1 was established in 1937, two settlement sites under Hetthorn number 1 and number 22. The farm number 22 was given up in 1974. The land was leased. In 1967, a bus turning area was built for the school bus that was promised.

It is not possible to expand the village of Hetthorn. The unified municipality of Loxstedt has designated Hetthorn as an outdoor area, which means that since 1974 it has no longer been allowed to build privately in Hetthorn. Agricultural businesses are an exception. You have the right to build farm buildings, farm workers' houses and guest rooms , among other things . In 1988 Hetthorn got new street names and house numbers. Farm number 1 was given up in 1999. Part of the land was leased.

refugees

In 1950, 47 refugees and bombed-out people were quartered on the farms and houses of the locals in Hetthorn. Like some of the house owners, they lived in very cramped conditions. The municipality of Hetthorn built two makeshift homes in 1945 especially for this purpose . In the 1950s, the displaced managed to create their own homes.

Incorporations

Hetthorn was an independent municipality until 1968. No more mayor could be found and Hetthorn was assigned to the community of Stotel .

In the course of the regional reform in Lower Saxony , which took place on March 1, 1974, Hetthorn became a village in the unitary community of Loxstedt with its own mayor .

coat of arms

The design of the municipal coat of arms of Hetthorn comes from the heraldist and coat of arms painter Albert de Badrihaye , who designed around 80 coats of arms in the district of Cuxhaven. The coat of arms was approved by the district president in Stade in 1966.

	Blazon : "In red a silver hip horn with gold fittings and gold pendants, raised by a silver five-leaf double rose ."
	Justification for the coat of arms: The Hifthorn is an allusion to the place name. The double rose is borrowed from the coat of arms seal of the dignity family, who owned Hetthorn in the 14th century.

economy

Management

The full-time farms operate modern dairy farming. The part-time business operates with extensive beef and cattle farming. In addition to dairy farming, one of the full-time farms also practices pig fattening and an agricultural wage business . There are seven horse owners in Hetthorn, five of which are also breeders.

The landscape structure consists of sandy soil , grassland with low moor subsoil and a portion of upland moor , which is also partly cultivated as grassland.

The Geest as farmland is largely due to forage maize cultivated -Anbau, a smaller proportion however, with cereal production . Root crops have not existed since 1978.

The grassland is cultivated by multiple silage mowings with a very small amount of hay extracted.

Of the 395 hectare total area of ​​Hetthorn, 276 hectares are agriculturally usable and 119 hectares are moorland and other areas. The landscape is characterized by intensive agriculture, with two full-time businesses and one part-time business.

In 1955 there were still 12 full-time businesses and 8 part-time businesses. Most of the usable areas will continue to be cultivated. In 2012 there are 2 full-time businesses and 1 part-time business.

drainage

The rivers Lune and Gackau partially form the boundary to Nesse, Düring and Wittstedt and serve the Hetthorn for surface drainage .

The maintenance association No. 80 Lune is responsible for the maintenance of the Lune and the Gackau (waters of the 2nd order). For the maintenance of the trenches III. The Untere Lune water and soil association is responsible for order, ditches and receiving waters . Every property owner must be given the opportunity to connect his own trench system to a trench III. Order to be able to connect.

The dike association Osterstader Marsch is responsible for dike protection and the disposal of the driven drift .

Moorland

The moor consists of birch forest with a portion of grassland. The grassland is only partially farmed extensively.

In 1984 and 1993 the Lower Saxony State Hunters' Association bought a birch break forest area with a size of approx. 15 ha as a biotope protection area .

Digested sludge landfill

Digested sludge runs into the bog canal

In 1969, the Loxstedt municipal sewage association bought an Ödmoor property with a size of approx. 3 hectares to be converted into a digested sludge pond for the disposal of the residues of the Nesse sewage treatment plant. Six chambers with a dam height of approx. 3 m were built into this area by walling. The trapping chambers were given an overflow system (Mönch) to drain the clarified water into the Lune via the Hahnenknoop-Hetthorn Moorkanal , a second order body of water. The digested sludge was transported using two pumping stations.

The dams versackten and broke, it came to heave the moor-ground and the gray broth swam across the Hahnenknoop-Hett Horner Moorkanal untreated into the Lune.

In 1984 the digested sludge ponds had to be abandoned. Biologists had measured that 60 milligrams of ammonium per liter of water was transported in the bog, 120 times the permissible limit .

Nature has taken back the area. As an invisible legacy is leachate to look at, this must be constantly monitored. The dilapidated six-wire barbed wire fence, as well as dilapidated old warning signs and monks, are to be seen as visible contaminated sites.
