history
"Stormarn" can be traced back to the old name of a district , a later county, whose inhabitants were called Stormarii (also Stormere ) as early as the 11th century .
- Stormarn was settled by Saxony until around 600 , the eastern border of Stormarn to today's Duchy of Lauenburg roughly coincides with the historical border between Saxony and Wenden at that time.
- Around 810, Emperor Charlemagne had the Limes Saxoniae (also known as Sachsenwall) built through Stormarn; Remains of a ring wall can still be found at the Nütschauer Schanze today.
- In 1111 Count Adolf von Schauenburg received Holstein , Wagrien and Stormarn as fiefs, with Stormarn at that time being further west than today's district.
- In 1322, with the partition and peace treaty of Oldesloe, the Alster became Stormarn's western border.
- In 1762 the offices of Reinfeld and Rethwisch fell to Denmark .
- In 1773 the old Stormarnic offices of Trittau (not identical to today's office of Trittau), Reinbek and Tremsbüttel became Danish.
- In 1844 the first vocational school was founded in Oldesloe.
- 1867, after the annexation of Schleswig-Holstein to Prussia , were in the province of Schleswig-Holstein 19 counties and a city ( Altona , then called the "City Circle") on the Prussian model formed. Stormarn was one of those circles. It was formed from the old lordly offices of Reinbek , Reinfeld , Rethwisch , Tremsbüttel and Trittau (not identical to the current office of Trittau), the city of Bad Oldesloe , the municipalities of Wandsbek and Reinfeld , 17 noble estates and the lübschen enclaves included in the area . The administrative seat was initially Reinbek . The district area was divided into four parish bailiffs, to which the rural communities were assigned. The noble estates were converted into manor districts .
- From 1867 to 1873 the seat of the district administration was in Reinbek Castle .
- In 1873 Wandsbek became the new seat of the district administration.
- In 1889, the Prussian municipal constitution of May 26, 1888 brought a new district order: Instead of the four parish bailiffs, there were now 26 administrative districts , into which the 127 rural communities of the district were classified. In addition, the 21 manor districts, the city of Oldesloe and the areas of Wandsbek and Reinfeld existed as non-official regional authorities.
- In 1889 the district vocational school was founded in Bad Oldesloe (the Ahrensburg branch became independent in 1980),

- 1945 The military occupation of Stormarn by British troops took place in the last week of the war, from May 1st to 3rd, 1945. On the afternoon of May 3rd, the occupation of Hamburg began , which had previously been agreed in the Villa Möllering near Lüneburg . One day later, Hans-Georg von Friedeburg signed the surrender of all German troops in north-west Germany, the Netherlands and Denmark on behalf of the last Reich President Karl Dönitz , who had previously left for Flensburg - Mürwik with the last Reich government .

- In 1976, the increased space requirement made a further administrative building in Bad Oldesloe on Mewesstrasse necessary.

coat of arms
Blazon : "In red a silver swan striding to the right in a fighting stance with raised wings and a golden crown around the neck."
The coat of arms has been recorded in the seal of the Danish royal family for the Stormarn region (county, principality) since the late 15th century and is one of the oldest regional coats of arms in Germany.
flag
Blazon : "On a red flag - turned to a pole on both sides - the white Stormarn swan with a yellow crown."
Economy and Infrastructure
The Stormarn district is economically strongly determined by the two neighboring cities of Hamburg and Lübeck, it counts in large parts (south and west) of the " bacon belt " of Hamburg, which is reflected in the demographic development (population growth from 163,000 inhabitants in 1973 to currently over 220,000 Residents) as well as in the settlement of many trades and industries. In contrast, the north-east of the district is mainly characterized by agriculture.
According to GfK surveys for 2016 and 2017, the district was one of the ten districts with the highest purchasing power in Germany and ranked tenth nationwide. In 2018, the Stormarn district was ranked 17th in a nationwide comparison of the regions. In the Future Atlas 2016 , the Stormarn district was ranked 75th out of 402 districts and urban districts in Germany, making it one of the districts with “high future prospects”.
Fifty years ago (March 23, 1957) the Stormarn district founded what is now Germany's oldest business development company - the Stormarn Economic and Development Company (WAS) .
The elongated shape of the district area on the one hand and the large population concentration in the communities in the southwest of the district (Reinbek, Glinde, Barsbüttel) on the other hand are unfavorable for the district structure. This often leads to long journeys for citizens. The district is now trying to compensate for this through administrative cooperation with the respective city and district administrations.
traffic
The location of the district along the motorways 1 (“ Vogelfluglinie ”), 24 (Hamburg– Berlin ), 20 (Lübeck– Rostock ), 21 ( Bargteheide - Kiel ) is decisive for traffic . On the railways, the Hamburg-Lübeck railway line is important, from which Bad Oldesloe u. a. the connection to Neumünster branches off. The local public transport in the district was incorporated into the HVV in 2003 .
Major airports in the vicinity are Hamburg southwest and Lübeck east of the district.
education
The Stormarn district is responsible for two vocational schools, one in Ahrensburg and one in Bad Oldesloe. The vocational school in Bad Oldesloe is a project school for the “Regional Vocational Training Centers” concept, or RBZ for short. These should be more independent of their wearer and be able to make many decisions themselves. The school is already organized like a company, which means that it should be able to work more effectively due to improved delegation and participation of the students. The name of the vocational school in the district in Bad Oldesloe is "RBZ Nordstormarn".
