Loppenstedt is a desert near Lühnde in the area of ​​the municipality of Algermissen in the district of Hildesheim , Lower Saxony . The village was probably abandoned in the 15th century.

location

The name "Loppenstedter Weg" gives an indication of where the village of Loppenstedt was once located for the developed wide path that leads south from the southwest of the village of Lühnde. According to the land map drawn up before the link, this path only bore his name up to the confluence with Braunschweiger Heerstraße, the field path that connects Bledeln with Kleinalgermissen. At this intersection you will find the place where the farms of Loppenstedt stood more than 600 years ago. Oral tradition and earlier finds of stones from the foundations of the disappeared buildings confirm this.

history

The name "Loppenstedt" is mentioned for the first time in a document from 1274. At that time it was "Luppenstede", which means (living) place of Luppo. At that time, the monastery of St. Bartholomew disposal to Sülte in Hildesheim a hoof country in the Bledelner Feldmark.

Around the same time, Bishop Otto von Hildesheim (1260–1279) bought a county near Sarstedt from Bruno von Gustedt, which involved Liberal property in Hotteln, Loppenstedt, Kleinlobke and other field stamps for 50 pounds Hildesheim pfennigs. Most likely this is the area of ​​the later Loppenstedter Freiding.

The cathedral chapter in Loppenstedt had, as can be seen from the interest registers of the cathedral provost Johann from 1277 to 1286, 7 hooves of real estate, which were cultivated by 6 farmers who were subject to interest by their names. Two of them, Conrad Slic (1 hoof) and the widow Tetmann (2 hoofs), each had 1 hoof cathedral chapter in Bledeln. All of these Loppenstedt farmers are marked as Liten (Laten) in the certificate. So they were not free and, as far as their country and personal circumstances were concerned, belonged in court to Meierding in Großalgermissen. In one year, the cathedral chapter collected 19 bushels of rye, 11 bushels of barley and 10 bushels of oats, as well as pigs, or the equivalent of 10 solidi, as well as other money and natural goods. In Loppenstedt there was also a Meierhof of the cathedral chapter, which in 1277 paid 30 bushels of oats and 20 bushels of barley in interest, in 1283 once 2 and the other time 4 solidi for sheep.

This Meierhof in Loppenstedt can only be meant when the cathedral provost listed an allod among his property there in 1361, which delivered 1 load of barley and 1 oat each. From the description of the property of the Dompropstei from 1385 it can be seen that 3 hooves belonged to the allod in Loppenstedt. Another property is 6 small hooves, which each delivered 6 bushels of barley, 1 bushel of Vogtweizen and 7 solidi to the levy.

According to a document from 1294, the Hildesheimer Johannis Foundation received income from Loppenstedt. Knight Siegfried von Rutenberg stated that Johann Slich, whom he referred to as "our Vogtmann", had to deliver 22 bushels of barley, rye and oats each to the Johannis pen, as well as 6 solidi Hildesheim coins and 3 taps for 3 years. Later it can be determined that there were 2 hooves that the pencil owned in Loppenstedt.

With the document from 1382, the news about the existence of the village of Loppenstedt stop. A record of the Sültekloster from 1501 shows that Loppenstedt was already a desert at that time, i.e. that its inhabitants had left it, because these are missing in the interest register without exception from this year on. According to this, the village was abandoned by its inhabitants in the course of the 15th century, because they were probably tired of the recurring looting and pillage during the frequent feuds.

It is significant that at this time the place name Loppenstedt appears relatively often as a family name in the neighborhood, for example in 1425, 1431, 1449 and 1487 in Hildesheim. The brewer Eggert Loppenstede is referred to as a new citizen in 1449. In Bledeln there is a Curt Loppenstede, who probably owned a half-horse farm, and a servant Cordt Loppenstede in the tax register of 1537. In Lühnde a Lüdeke Loppenstede had a small farm job at that time. Family names were still emerging at that time. When moving, the newcomer was often given the name of his previous place of residence as a family name. ("Dat is de van L. I"). So one can assume that this or that of the named had not moved from Loppenstedt long before, because he too had given up his place of residence.

Even if the village of Loppenstedt no longer existed, the fields remained untouched for about five centuries. It could not be divided because the tithing burden still rested on it, the beneficiary of which was the Carthusian monastery in Hildesheim. According to the records of the Sültekloster mentioned above, the field mark 1501 consisted of the Winterfeld, the Gerstfeld, the Haferfeld and the Brakfeld. At that time, four-field farming had already replaced the previous three-field farming. There were still a few gardens of the village. From the field names are mentioned in 1501: Boven den Wörden (= above the (abandoned) village), Beim Loppenstedter Beeke, on Wedemeswege (Weg am Pfarrlande), Bei der Krümme (in the corner of Algermissen), Remmerdes Busch, Bei dem Hemlinge, In the Uitzen-Pohle (frog swamp), on the Loppenstedter Klint.

As far as can be ascertained, the following property existed in Loppenstedter Felde:

  • the cathedral chapter: 3 hooves (belonging to the allod), 6 small hooves
  • the Sültekloster: 1 hoof
  • the Lühnder Church: 1 hoof
  • the Oesselse church: 5 mornings
  • the Carthusian monastery: 2 hooves
  • the Barner 1 hooves

When the base loads were replaced around 1840, the Loppenstedt tithe was also included. At that time, 71 tithe people in Bledeln and Lühnde had to raise the sum of 9042 thalers, 4 groschen, 6 pfennigs (9042.46 thalers) for 599.5 acres of land to the Carthusian monastery and to pay 5 thalers each in Louisdors. Now it was possible to divide up the Loppenstedter Feldmark. This happened in the course of the coupling that was tackled in 1849. Before that, however, an exact recording of the parcels and their owners took place. From the map made and the recess, more details about the field mark Loppenstedt can be found. It consisted of about 754 acres of arable land, 110 acres of common land and 2 acres of flax rotten.
