Jühnde is a municipality in southern Lower Saxony in the district of Göttingen . The places Jühnde and Barlissen belong to it . It is a member community of the Dransfeld joint community .
Jühnde is located about 13 km southwest of Göttingen and 13 km northeast of Hann. Münden , at the foot of the Hohe Hagens . The place has almost 1000 inhabitants.
history
Jühnde was first mentioned in a document in 960 by Otto I. At that time there was a castle complex on the military road from Münden to Göttingen. In 1484 the people of Göttingen conquered the robber baron's castle , which was a thorn in their side because dealers were attacked from there. The castle burned down in the Thirty Years War . Jühnde was once in the fiefdom of those at Everstein who, after the place was owned by the von Berlepsch family until the end of the 14th century , transferred it to the brothers Hans and Albrecht von Boventen as a fief on May 1, 1398 . In addition to the village, it also included Jühnde Castle, the right of patronage and goods in Mengershausen , Lemshausen and Bördel, among others . In 1466 Hans von Boventen again received Jühnde and all accessories as a fief from Otto the Victorious . In 1477 he pledged the village, castle and barlissen to Dietrich von Uslar and his son Hans von Boventen.
The now extinct family of the younger ones comes from Jühnde. From 1245 they held councilor positions in Göttingen, in Münden a miner Wedekind von Jüne was named in 1311 , and in 1323 a councilor from the dynasty was named Conradus de Jün .
In 1664 Otto Freiherr Grote took over the estate and rebuilt the castle. He was an important man and had brought Leibnitz and the electoral dignity to Hanover. Another minister was Otto Ulrich Freiherr Grote. In 1802 he took his leave in Hanover, moved to Jühnde and laid out the park there in the early romantic style until 1805. The current owner of the estate is also called Otto Ulrich. He took over the property from his father Rüdiger, who had run the business for almost 40 years.

On January 1, 1973, the neighboring community Barlissen was incorporated.
politics

"

Description of the flag: "The flag has green and white stripes with a coat of arms in the middle."
Description of the banner: "The banner is green and white striped lengthways with an applied coat of arms above the middle."
Attractions
The village of Jühnde is predominantly shaped by the grounds of the Jühnder Castle . There are also some, mostly unadorned half-timbered buildings from the 17th to 19th centuries that characterize the townscape.
A grove of honor was laid out north above the village in 1920 as a memorial for those who fell in the First World War . The grove is overgrown with oaks and surrounded by a hedge. The exposed location above the town in the open field directly on the 559 road makes the Ehrenhain a characteristic element of the landscape. The memorial was later expanded to include two memorial stones for those who fell in World War II .
Bioenergy village
Jühnde is the first bioenergy village in Germany. This was made possible by a project of the Interdisciplinary Center for Sustainable Development at the University of Göttingen .
The aim of the Jühnde community is to cover all of its energy needs with renewable energy sources, which was successfully implemented in winter 2005 after several years of preparation and with the full cooperation of the villagers. Most of the energy is obtained from biomass from the surrounding fields and manure. About 32 tons of silage and 29 m³ of liquid manure are added to the plant every day. The resulting biogas is fed to a block-type thermal power station . The electricity generated is fed into the local power grid, while the resulting waste heat is fed to the households via an underground local heating network. In winter, this waste heat (700 kW ) is not always sufficient to supply the connected households. That is why there is an additional wood chip heating plant (600 kW), which is fed with wood from the area and additionally heats the water of the local heating system, if necessary a 350 kW oil burner is used. With around 4 million kWh per year, Jühnde produces twice as much green electricity as it consumes itself. The electricity is fed into the grid for 17 cents per kilowatt hour. As a result, the plant brings in over 600,000 euros annually. In addition, an average household in Jühnde saves around 750 euros per year.
Jühnde is the first place in Germany that completely covers its energy needs from renewable energies and has become known worldwide as a result. Visitors from the USA, Japan and other countries visited the first bioenergy village. The village's own biogas plant, including the wood-chip heating power plant , is organized as a cooperative .
traffic
The high-speed line Hanover – Würzburg runs, with the Jühnde depot and the Mackenrodttunnel , southeast of the core town through the municipality.
Personalities
The writer and publicist Heinrich Sohnrey was born in Jühnde in 1859 as the illegitimate son of Oskar Freiherr Grote and Luise Sohnrey and grew up there. The grave of the local poet who died in Neuhaus im Solling in 1948 is in the cemetery of the Jühnder village church. In 1949 the Heinrich-Sohnrey-Gesellschaft was founded in Jühnde, which set up an archive and a memorial for Sohnrey in the tower of Jühnder Castle. Several schools and numerous streets bear the name of the "popular ' Solling poet' and social reformer", who came under fire in 2011 after a new study came to the conclusion that Sohnrey was a staunch supporter of National Socialism and also blatantly for the extermination " of inferior races ”had occurred.
The lawyer and politician ( NSDAP ), Hermann Muhs , was born on May 16, 1894 in Barlissen / Jühnde. He died on April 13, 1962 in Göttingen .
TV production
From July 2, 2007, the weekly documentary soap Men Alone at Home on Kabel1 was filmed in Jühnde. There is also a 30-minute documentary about the biogas plant from 2007 with the title: When manure becomes electricity; A village is heating up.
