  Location of Lünzen in Schneverdingen
|
|
Lünzen is a district of the town of Schneverdingen in the Heidekreis district in Lower Saxony .
geography
The place is about seven kilometers west of the city center and is connected to it via Alte Landstrasse ( Landesstrasse 71). It is characterized by an extensive forest and meadow landscape as well as the valley of the Veerse with its mill pond and the 69 meter high Hahnenberg.
Lünzen's places to live are Lünzenbrockhof ( Low German / plattdüütsch Lünzenbrockhoff ), Bult, Lünzmühlen / Lünzmöhl and Riep.
history
The place Lünzen was first mentioned in a document in 1291 in the tax register of Verden Abbey.
Megalithic graves near Brockhof and Dreyershof, as well as urn finds near the school, near Dreyershof, in Heuberg and in Mühlenberg prove that Lünzen was already inhabited in prehistoric times . The urns were partly bronze jewelry, bronze lance tips and the like. added, which suggest an age of these tombs of 3,000 years.
The oldest spelling of the place name is Lünsen, Lünßen and also Lunsen. According to the tax and tenths of a tax register of the Verdenschen Höfe of the parish Schneverdingen from the year 1300, the monastery in Lünzen had 7 farms and the water mill. According to a census in 1575 (today in the Hanover State Archives ) Lünzen had 9 residential buildings, 28 outbuildings and 35 men and 33 women among the inhabitants. In 1664, i.e. immediately after the Thirty Years' War , on the other hand, only 25 men and 92 women lived in Lünzen. In a list of the Land Police in the Vogtei Schneverdingen from 1692, 3 full farms, 3 half farms , a small house and the mill operator with a plow are listed under “Lüntzen” .
The village's seven old farms are all on the Veerse. In 1650 a new farmer was added in Bult, as well as the school. There were no chimneys at all in the village until 1803.
In 1843 the law on division and coupling brought about major changes in all farms. In the spring of 1844, after lengthy negotiations, boundaries against the neighboring villages and the single-digit farms were determined for the first time by comparison. Only on October 22, 1858, the recess was finally carried out. With the common division , a new route connection was built in a straight line from Lünzen to Schneverdingen, as it still exists today as a state road, while two other routes previously existed, one along the north bank of the Veerse to Zahrensen , the old post route over the Hahnenberg.
In 1929, 382 people lived in 63 households in the municipality of Lünzen. During the First World War, 70 men were drafted from the community for military service. On March 26, 1927, the village's new cemetery was inaugurated. In 1931/32 the so-called settlement in the direction of Schneverdingen was built. A shooting club was only founded in Lünzen on May 8, 1920.
The high-lying field on the Hahnenberg belonging to the village has light sandy soil throughout. Lünzen does not have any loamy soil like the neighboring communities of Zahrensen or Schülern . The cultivation of the moor in meadows and pastures, also in arable land, began mainly after the First World War . Prisoners of war from Belgium, England, France and Russia, who were housed in a barracks camp near the communal border towards Schultenwede from 1915 to 1918 , were used to build 60 kilometers of drainage ditches .
On March 1, 1974, Lünzen was incorporated into the municipality of Schneverdingen.
Culture and sights
Buddhist meditation house "Semkye Ling"
Organizationally, the center belongs to the Tibetan Center Hamburg . Seminars and retreats for practitioners take place in the meditation house, as well as meditation evenings for those interested in the area. In addition, there are meditation huts on the premises for individual meditation . In the autumn of 1998 the 14th Dalai Lama blessed the temple of the meditation house. The Dalai Lama stayed ten days as part of the event "Buddha's Way to Happiness" in the vicinity of Schneverdingen and in Camp Reinsehlen , which was organized by the Tibetan Center.
Local museum "Dat Immenhus"
Since 2013, the "Dat Immenhus" museum has been showing exhibits relating to the history of Lünzen. It was founded and is operated by members of the local homeland association and also serves as a location for cultural events.
Watermill Lünzen
The watermill in Lünzen, which dates from the thirteenth century, is probably the oldest mill in the northern part of the old district of Soltau . It is also the last twin-wheel watermill in all of northern Germany.
The first written reference to the mill is from the Rotenburg money register for 1587 . The mill was located directly on Poststrasse, so that on January 2, 1695 it was under the “Zoll- u. Wegegeldern im Amt Rotenburg “was also listed as a lifting point for small customs duties that are levied here because of the Lüneburg border. On January 21, 1706 the bailiff in Schneverdingen reported "a great flood of water which washed away the dam and the bridge near Lünzmühlen, so that the miller could not grind for a long time".
The master miller Johann Christopher Heino (1749–1807) built a new mill in 1785, one-story and in oak framework with brick infill. The sandstone slab above the door bears the inscription:
A heart that
never forgets in happy days O father of
yours
A heart that is
quiet and humble in front of you under hardship and plagues
A heart full of confidence in you
And full of patience I give
Johann Christoph Heino ––– Dorothea Marie Heino born. Möhring
Lünzmühlen on April 5, 1785
In 1897 a sawmill was added to the side and the mill was expanded into a double-wheel water mill. The mill building was raised by one floor in 1913 because large quantities of grain had to be crushed for the local pig fattening operations that have since been established. A new massive base structure was built in 1908. Their own electrical lighting system was set up in 1905. In the same year the oil mill closed again. A locomobile set up in 1909 for additional power generation was replaced by a diesel engine in 1927. In April 1945, a few weeks before the end of the war, the demolition of the mill bridge was prevented at the last minute; it would have severely damaged the mill building. In 1948/49 the west side of the mill was renewed, as was the former crockery room; the electric motor slowly displaced the transmission. It was not until 1979, when the other water and windmills in this area had long since ceased their milling operations, that the last entry was made in the milling book of the Lünzen watermill.
The monument has been restored since 1999. Different eras of grinding devices or conveyor systems exist, as well as the systems with which the watermill generated electricity from 1905 to 1948.
