history

The first written mention of the place Hattenroth is for the year 1055. Later mentions are for the years 1313 (Hattenrode) and 1472 (Hottenrode). The place had a church very early on, the patronage was first held by the lords of Bodenhausen and von Kerstlingerode, later the lords of Hanstein owned it. 1312 called a Johannes von Hottenrode. During the time of the Counter Reformation , there were disputes between Kurmainz and the Dukes of Braunschweig about Hottenrode's religious affiliation, and military actions are even documented for 1597. In a recess from 1622, Kurmainz recognized the affiliation to the Duchy of Braunschweig. The village has probably become desolate in connection with the Thirty Years War .

Only the Hottenrode church , which is still used today for individual church services, and the cemetery have survived . In 1867 the Arenshausen-Friedland railway line was opened, which connected rail traffic from Halle via northern Thuringia to Hanover. In 1884, however, this line was again in favor of the Halle – Hann. Münden abandoned. In the 19th century a brick factory was built here, which had its own siding and was abandoned around the middle of the 20th century. This included a clay pit, which is still in use today, which is located directly in the Eichenberger Grabenknoten and which houses rocks from the stone marl Rhätkeuper and the Black Jura.
