geography

location

The district of Hameln-Pyrmont is located in the Weserbergland on the Upper Weser in southern Lower Saxony. The entire district is traversed by low mountain ranges: the Süntel and Weser Mountains lie in the north, Deister , Osterwald , Ith and Thüster Berg in the east and the Lipper Bergland adjoins the border with North Rhine-Westphalia in the south and west . The highest elevations in the district are the Kanstein (441 m above sea level) on the northern edge of the Thüster Berg near Salzhemmendorf and the Hohe Egge (440 m above sea level) in the Süntel near Pötzen. The Weser flows through the area in a north-south direction through the middle of the district town of Hameln, where the Hamel flows into it. In the municipality of Emmerthal in the south of the district area, the Emmer flows into the Weser coming from the Höxter district. The district extends over 35 km in a west-east direction (Hagen to Benstorf-Quanthof), in north-south direction 38 km (Nienstedt to Baarsen)

Neighboring areas

Starting in a clockwise direction in the northwest, the district borders the Schaumburg district , the Hanover region and the Hildesheim and Holzminden districts (all in Lower Saxony) and the Lippe district (in North Rhine-Westphalia ).

history

In 782 hit during the Saxon wars of the Great Charles Franks and Saxons battle in Blutbachtal (Süntel) where the Franks defeated.

In 1523 Hameln , Bodenwerder , the offices of Aerzen , Lauenstein , Grohnde and the "Goe auf der Hamel" (= settlement and judicial district on the Eichberg near Klein-Hilligsfeld) were incorporated into the Duchy of Calenberg. The economic situation and the social position of the peasant class improved in the following years, the Weser area became a closed area again. The craft spread, and industrial activity began with the production of salt in Salzhemmendorf and the mining of coal in Osterwald (1587).

In 1823 some smaller offices were dissolved. Ohsen came to the office of Grohnde, the offices of Lachem and Aerzen formed a new office of Hamelin with the Hamelin city bailiwick. The patrimonial jurisdiction of the Hastenbeck and Ohr estates was abolished. The manors connected with the offices became independent domains. The offices as the lowest administrative authorities were subordinated to the newly established Landdrosteien (later government districts). The Hamelin area belonged to the Royal Landdrostei Hanover .

The old Hanoverian constitution of offices ended on April 1st, 1885 with the entry into force of the district regulations for the Prussian province of Hanover: The Hameln district was created as a new Prussian administrative district from the cities of Hameln and Bodenwerder and the offices of Hameln, Polle and Lauenstein. The new order aimed at a more conscious self-administration of the communities and districts: The district became a state administrative district and an independent local authority association at the same time. The villages were given their own municipal administration with a community leader, accountant and community committee.

The district of Hameln-Pyrmont has existed since April 1, 1922. It emerged from the merger of the two districts of Hameln and Pyrmont . From April 1, 1923 to December 31, 1972, the city of Hameln was independent and was not part of the district at that time. On April 1, 1938, the municipality of Holzhausen was incorporated into Bad Pyrmont . Bodenwerder and Pegestorf were reclassified to the Holzminden district on November 1, 1942.

On March 1, 1973, the administrative and territorial reform changed the delimitation of the district:

On March 1, 1974, the town of Bad Münder am Deister was added from the dissolved district of Springe ; on August 1, 1977 also the city of Hessisch Oldendorf from the dissolved Grafschaft Schaumburg district .

In September 1999, the district and the co-shareholders sold the Wesertal power station to the Finnish Fortum Group.

Population development

The district of Hameln-Pyrmont was significantly enlarged by the regional reforms in the 1970s.
