History of Lensahn
The oldest document that proves Lensahn's existence comes from the year 1222. In it the name "Linsane" is mentioned in a sales contract and "Rotbertus de Linsane" is named as a witness. The place name is of Slavic origin and translated means something like "inhabitant of the undeveloped new land". Attempts to derive the place name from the Low German language could not prevail. The old name "Linsane" should therefore indicate "a field tilled with linseed". In 1245 the construction of the brick-Gothic village church began as the founding of the rulers of the Schauenburg region . A certain Eggert von Heesten became the first owner of Lensahn in 1440. Ten years later, in 1450, Hartwig von Buchwald acquired the Lensahn estate, which in turn was replaced ten years later by Mathias von Ratlau .
Several plague epidemics are mentioned in the church chronicles and the turn to the Lutheran faith is confirmed from 1542, since the Reformation in the Duchies of Lensahn certifies a total of 36 hooves (together with Wendisch-Lensahn and Beschendorf).
The Petersdorf estate is located north of the Lensahn community. Petersdorf emerged in the first half of the 16th century through an inheritance from the Gneningen estate, which no longer exists today . The manor house got its current appearance under Baron Hans Detlef von Hammerstein . Today the estate is a pure arable farm, where, among other things, rapeseed , wheat and winter barley are grown. The entire facility is under monument protection .
Thirty Years' War
The "Petrus" bell was cast in 1622 - it still rings today in the church tower. Imperial troops under Tilly looted and devastated Lensahn in 1628, which in 1633 received a new owner in Detlef Ratlow zu Lensahn . Lensahn was hit again in 1643 by a Swedish occupation.
18th century
Billing during the Great Northern War (1700–1721) did not have any negative consequences for the now small village.
Pastor Hartmann , who was in office in 1760, made Lensahn a paradise for marriage in Holstein and at the same time promoted the introduction of the potato . In 1769 Koselau, Sebent, Lübbersdorf, Kuhof, Kremsdorf, Bollbrügge, Sütel and Sievershagen became the property of the grand ducal family (so-called “younger Fideikommißgüter”). In 1795, Duke Peter Friedrich Ludwig set up work and industrial schools (handicraft lessons for young women) in Lensahn and Beschendorf. In preparation for release from serfdom , practical skills such as spinning, knitting, darning, sewing, etc. were taught.
With the end of serfdom in Lensahn, Pastor Petersen founded an economic reading society in 1798 (i.e. an association for the procurement of specialist agricultural literature). The Hufner became time leaseholders and received lease contracts that precisely regulated all rights and obligations.

In the revolutionary years of 1848/1849 Schleswig-Holstein rose against the Danish government, and a fighting association was formed in Lensahn. But it was not until after the German War in 1867 that the duchies of Schleswig and Holstein were incorporated into the Kingdom of Prussia .
