Isums lies on a narrow ridge that protruded like a peninsula into the former Harle Bay. The village, which is located between Leerhafe in the south and Wittmund's core city in the north, is crossed by the L 11 road.

Isums comprises two places of settlement: the small Isums in the south and the northern Isums, which is also called the Greater Isums for better differentiation . Isums is surrounded by three watercourses. In the west flows the Nöttelnser Leide and in the east the Tjücher Leide , which is called Dykschloot in its lower section . Both waterways flow into the Harle , which forms the natural northern border of Isum. Is characterized scenic locality by numerous, typical of the Geest embankment hedge plants .

history
The earlier assumption that Isums was identical to the Isebenysze mentioned in the Bremen deanery register of 1420 (the so-called Stader Copiar ) is now considered unlikely. Although a parish with this name belonged to the district of the Wittmunder Sendkirche , it is assumed that it is a place that was lost in the former Harle Bay. A first secured documentary mention of Isum as Isemeß (also Isenß written elsewhere in the document ) is documented for 1589. Klein-Isums is documented for the first time in 1602 as Klein-Ysems . The meaning of the name is so far unsecured. One assumption is that Isums is derived from the male nickname Isi .
In the Topography of the Kingdom of Hanover , published in 1834, it is reported that remains of old burial sites and skeletal parts were found in the parish towns of Isums, Burmönken and monasteries, "which seem to reveal the existence of monasteries or spiritual colonies at that time". According to Enno Schöningh, the Johanniterkommende Burmönken , which existed from approx. 1300 to 1540, owned monastic property in the village of Isums.
In a description of historical borders that refer to the 15th and early 16th centuries, Isums is referred to as parish “No. 8 “of the Bremen Cathedral Scholasters , while Leerhafe is listed as belonging to the Bremen Provost Reepsholt . In other words: There were evidently ecclesiastical administrative boundaries between Leerhafe and Isums during this period. In later times Isums was always part of the parish Leerhafe. It is not known whether the village ever had its own church.
During the Hanoverian period (1815–1866) one of four Weggeldhebestellen was set up in Isums . There, users of the road from Wittmund via Friedeburg to Neustadtgödens, which was partly made of clinker and partly of cobblestone, had to pay a toll . The Prussians took over the toll booths after 1866 and ran them until December 31, 1874. After that, the districts and offices were allowed to continue to charge a user fee for the roads they looked after. The leverage point in Isums existed until 1914.
religion
The vast majority of the residents of Isum belong to the Evangelical Lutheran Regional Church of Hanover . The church responsible for the Isumser, the Cäcilien- und Margarethenkirche , is located in Leerhafe. Members of the Roman Catholic Church are spiritually cared for by the parish community Neuauwiewitt (Neustadtgödens - Aurich - Wiesmoor - Wittmund). The closest Catholic place of worship for Isums is the Wittmund St. Bonifatius Church at Bismarckstrasse 5. In the post-war years there was a Baptist emergency church in the Isums barracks camp , which was mainly visited by refugees from the former German eastern regions . Today the church responsible for Baptists is the house of prayer on Elisbethufer in Jever . New Apostolic Christians also have their worship center in Jever.
economy
In 1996 a biogas plant was built in Isums which, in cooperation with around 70 agricultural contract partners, converts liquid manure and other organic residues into biogas and fertilizer . The company, which employs 10 people, also operates a block-type thermal power station that supplies heat to a nearby barracks. The power plant also generates electrical energy that is fed into the public grid. Operator of the plant, the west of the in wholesale Isums L 11 is needed to be power supply Weser-Ems owned company EWE Biogas GmbH & Co. KG .
