history
On May 1, 1304, Count Adolf V von Holstein-Segeberg gave the village of Borstelde to the Hamburg citizen Johann vom Berge. After the male part of the vom Berge (or de Monte) family died out, the St. Georgs Hospital gradually acquired the village between 1488 and 1615. After the end of the French occupation by Napoleon , the village is subordinated to the administration of the city of Hamburg in 1830 and assigned to the rulership of the Geestlande .
For the first time in 1872 the community assembly of the rural community of Klein Borstel-Struckholt was elected, and the subjects of the St. George Hospital became politically full landowners and residents.
Until the end of the 19th century, Klein Borstel was dominated by rural areas and consisted mainly of fields with bend borders, small oak forests and individual farms. The only road connection was the Wellingsbüttler Landstrasse, which led from Hamburg to the Wellingsbüttel mansion .
With the expansion of the Hamburg settlement area towards the end of the 19th century, mostly wealthy families came first, who built villas for themselves along Wellingsbüttler Landstrasse. This development still shapes the character of the district today.
In 1913 the village was incorporated into the Hamburg urban area as a suburb; this marked the end of municipal representation. With the opening of the Alstertalbahn with the Kornweg / Klein Borstel train station in 1916 and the opening of the Langenhorner Bahn with the Klein Borstel train station in 1921, Klein Borstel was connected to Hamburg in terms of transport. It was the end of the rural use of the area.
In 1938 Klein Borstel was merged with Ohlsdorf .
