history

The city is first mentioned in a document
"Crempe" 1645 in the Atlas Maior by Willem Blaeu
City map of Krempe in the New Country Description by Danckwerth and Mejer (1652)
Brim 1588

Krempe was settled early on. The first documentary mention took place around 1234, the granting of the city charter happened at the instigation of the knights of Barmstede . Since 1361 there was evidence of an infirmary for lepers west of the city . Dutch settlers were involved in the drainage of the city, which helped the city to a solid foundation in the Middle Ages . From 1535 Krempe was by the Danish King Christian III. Strongly fortified to protect the Holstein Elbe marshes. From 1595 - according to other information from 1607 - under Christian IV the extensions were expanded so that a complex with a moat, bastions and four gates was created, the moat was up to 25 meters wide and the wall up to 4.5 meters high. At this time the city was in its economic boom and was the second largest fortress in the Duchy of Holstein after Rendsburg . The Krempau was also used to trade with important cities such as Venice and Lisbon . The town hall of Krempe also served the merchants' guild as an administrative building.

The fortifications of the place proved inadequate during the Thirty Years' War and Krempe was captured by Wallenstein's troops on November 14, 1628 after a siege of several months . Due to war damage, the silting up of the formerly navigable Krempau and above all the founding of Glückstadt , Krempe increasingly lost its importance during the 17th century. In 1857 the Glückstadt-Elmshorn railway line was extended to the Stör. This gave the city a rail connection.

On January 26, 1984, the city was host city in a game played for the first time in the 127th episode of the television show Dalli Dalli .

coat of arms

The design of the municipal coat of arms of the city of Krempe, in the form of coat of arms that was binding from 1957 to the present day, comes from the heraldist and graphic artist Alfred Brecht .

Coat of arms of brim
Blazon : “In gold above and below a narrow blue wavy bar, threeblue fish placedin three passages, with their heads turned towards each other. Between the top two a red -tongued black wolf's head . "
Justification of the coat of arms: The town of Krempe, as the main town of the Kremper Marsch, has a historical coat of arms that goes back to a medieval seal. The oldest town seal shows a bear's head as the main figure, which is borrowed from the coat of arms of the local noble family "von Barmstede" . In the 20th century this bear's head was probably misunderstood as a wolf's head. In any case, when the coat of arms was reworked in 1957, the wolf's head was established as the valid version and apparently no approval was required for it. The fish and the wave bar refer to the local Kremper Au with its abundance of fish at the time.

City partnerships and sponsorships

Krempe maintains partnerships with the communities of Gramzow in the Uckermark in northeast Brandenburg and Sankt Martin im Sulmtal in Styria ( Austria ), and Krempe maintains a sponsorship relationship with Reichenbach in Prussian Holland in East Prussia , now in Poland .

Culture and sights

Buildings

  • The center of the city is the Renaissance town hall from 1570 . The house was formerly decorated with a stepped gable and has a small roof turret. Inside there are the Council Hall and the Great Hall , both of which are decorated with rich paintings, as well as a large warehouse on the north side of the building. The town hall was extensively restored in 1990 and is one of the most beautiful historical town halls in the country. Around the town hall is the market, which is almost completely surrounded by old buildings.
  • The Kremper Church of St. Peter is located in the immediate vicinity of the market and town hall. The Kremper Church is at least the third building at this point, a first church is mentioned around 1239. This church received a new tower in 1506, which fell on the nave during a storm in 1648 and largely destroyed it. The successor building burned out in 1814 after Swedish troops had stored powder supplies here. Today's church is a classicist building from 1832, for which Christian Frederik Hansen provided the designs.
  • The royal court was built as Nye Hus in 1543 and acquired by the Danish king in 1558. The half-timbered house was used by Christian III. as a residence when he was in a brim.
  • On the Mühlenberg stands the former water tower from 1902 , which, with its height of about 36 meters, helps shape the city's silhouette.
