The Burzlaff farm , formerly called Hof Blume , is a multi-part former farm in the Hanover district of Groß-Buchholz . The farm is located in the rural center of the village, which has been incorporated into Hanover since 1907. The farm's barn , built in 1815 and now a listed building, is a defining feature of the town.

description

According to a cadastral map from 1870, the farm was a full meier farm . Together with eight other Vollmeierhöfe, it was one of the largest farms in Groß-Buchholz, where there were a total of 34 farms at that time. In 1689 the farm cultivated 34 acres of land, in 1852 it was 55 acres. Agriculture continued until 1960.

The main building of the Burzlaff-Hof was built in 1770 as a hall house in two-column construction . The year of construction is attested by a photo from 1920 with the following bar inscription above the gate entrance on the display gable:

Heinrich Blume. Dorette flower. born Sievers. Anno 1770.

In the devastating hurricane of 1830, the upper part of the building was destroyed and restored. This event describes a house inscription with the following wording:

Lord is now upright again what you destroy for me through the storm in an instant, September 17th, 1830. And soon it sinks if you don't watch. So I beseech God keep this house and share abundant blessings in it.

The inscription was originally on the gable above the gate entrance. The gable beam was later moved to a garage building.

During the Second World War , the main building was bombed on November 29, 1943 during the air raids on Hanover . This destroyed the front two thirds of the house. The remains of the building with the preserved, rear gable were restored and inhabited.

The barn, built in 1815 by master Cord Heinrich Meyer, is one of the buildings on the Burzlaff-Hof, which is important in terms of monument preservation. It has the following house inscription on a beam:

Receive oh god! What you have given us, the peace and the building, give us all a long life, give blessings and thoughts that we are pleased with you. M. Cord Meyer 1815 d. July 17th

Decay

The barn of the courtyard has been neglected for decades, which has been increasingly discussed in public since 2015. In 2017 it became known that an investor wanted to restore the court ensemble almost true to the original for several million euros. According to the plans, a rebuilding of the war-damaged main building is planned and the barn is to be renovated. It is planned to build eight apartments on the site, the implementation depending on the requirements of the monument authority . In 2017, the Buchholz-Kleefeld district council requested the city of Hanover to “exhaust all possibilities under building law” in order to maintain Hof Burzlaff. It is feared that failure to implement the construction plans could lead to demolition due to inefficiency.
