Losebeck

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The village of Losebeck was roughly where the college building stands today

Losebeck or Lusbike (Low German for "place on the Schilfbach") was the name of a village settlement in what is now Hildesheim .

history

A first documentary reference to Losebeck dates from 1141. In a document from Bishop Bernhard I from that year, the brothers Thidericus et Beringer de Lusbike are named as witnesses. These two gentlemen were probably aristocratic servants of the bishop who were well off in Losebeck. Since a Lusbike maior is expressly mentioned in later documents , it can be assumed that there were actually two villages lying close together - Groß- and Klein-Losebeck. These can be located in the area of ​​today's "Zimmerplatz" (officially: Goschentor) or the northern part of the street Hohnsen. The eponymous Schilfbach was a brook leading to the Innerste , which ran along the last-named street today and which is still recorded on plans from the late 18th century. Since the middle of the 12th century, the residents have been mostly fathers of the church. In 1182, Bishop Adelog von Hildesheim abolished the bailiwick and gave the Hildesheim cathedral provost, among others, the villication of Losebeck. Because of its proximity to the seat of the monastery , it became the center of the Hildesheim Dompropstei . After the Hildesheimer Neustadt was founded on the Losebecker Flur around 1215 , the name Losebeck was used mockingly by the citizens of the old town for centuries for the undesirable urban competition immediately in front of their own city wall. The actual Losebeck existed in front of the gates of the Neustadt until the end of the 14th century; last in 1377 a "very small community" of servants of the provost court is mentioned.
