history

The place was first mentioned in a document in 1152. The previously independent municipality of Hordorf was incorporated into the city of Oschersleben on January 1, 1999 . Hordorf was pledged to the Lords of Asseburg in 1381. In 1755, following a decree by the Prussian War and Domain Chamber Halberstadt , the cultivation of mulberry plantations and the associated silkworm breeding began . The plantations existed until 1809.

Until December 2012, Hordorf had a stop on the Magdeburg – Halberstadt line that was opened in 1843 . A railway accident occurred here on January 29, 2011 , in which a freight train and a regional train of the Harz-Elbe-Express collided head-on, killing ten people.

Cultural monuments

The town center is designated as a monument area. Furthermore, the church, the rectory, the station building, the street line 118-122 (monument area) as well as numerous farms and houses are classified as cultural monuments.

St. Stephen's Church

The baroque church was built between 1693 and 1698 under Pastor Christoph Quenstedt after the previous building was destroyed in the Thirty Years War . The tower with a Renaissance portal was retained from the previous building. In the GDR the church deteriorated more and more. In the early 1980s the upper part of the tower was demolished. The roof structure was also torn down and the organ was handed over to Bad Belzig in 1747 . A pre-Reformation altar, a bell and the clockwork have been preserved. In 2015, a support association was founded to save the church and the overgrown ruins were cleared up. The nave has had a roof since December 2017, and windows were installed again in March 2018.
