Klein Heidorn ( Low German Lüttken Heidorn ) is a village that belongs to the city of Wunstorf in the Hanover region in Lower Saxony .
history
The first documentary mention of the Hagendorf Klein Heidorn was made in 1247 in a document that granted ownership of the place to the Bishop of Minden Johann . The place was previously owned by Count Ludolf von Roden. In the following period the place came to the Counts of Schaumburg. He belonged as an exclave to the Bokeloh office .
The place was set on fire during the Thirty Years War . It then came into Guelph ownership in 1640 and was assigned to the Principality of Calenberg .
On Ascension Day in 1802 the village burned down and 30 of the 35 houses were destroyed. From 1898 on, there was also a stop for the Steinhuder Meer Railway in Klein Heidorn . This railway operation continued until 1964 and 1970 for freight traffic. The Wunstorf Air Base is of particular importance to Klein Heidorn . The land for this purpose was largely expropriated by the Luftwaffe and Wehrmacht in 1934. The soldiers stationed in the air base were assigned to the population of Klein Heidorn, which subsequently increased their size sharply.
Incorporations
On March 1, 1974, for the regional reform in Lower Saxony , Klein Heidorn was incorporated into the city of Wunstorf.

coat of arms

Blazon : "In silver, a green cherry branch hangingto the right with seven (4: 3) red cherries ." |
| Justification of the coat of arms: The reason to include the cherries in the coat of arms came from the cherry markets held in the 18th and 19th centuries. The local, extremely wet clay soil was the basis for growing the cherries. The cultivation developed into a source of income for the place, which was previously extremely poor in industry, so that Klein Heidorn is still popularly referred to as the “cherry village” today. The sour cherries that were grown back then are still preserved here today and are used in particular for jams and fruit wines. A memorial stone was erected here on the occasion of the 700th anniversary of the community. A bronze plate embedded in the stone already shows a cherry branch in which seven cherries symbolize the time of 700 years. |
