history
Early place names for Mölme were Muilnem (around 1260) or Molnem (1264) they changed several times over the years. It is first called Mölme on August 21, 1260, when Bishop Johann I transferred 20 Hufen land from the Mölmer Feldmark to the Loccum monastery . The Loccum Cistercians had made up for the previous owners with monetary payments. From then on, the farmers of the farms on this site had to pay their taxes to the monastery. In the following years the monks bought more land. As a result of a collegiate feud, this area came under the sovereignty of Brunswick for 120 years. When the Reformation was introduced in Hoheneggelsen in 1542, the inhabitants of Mölme accepted the evangelical creed.
With the regional reorganization Mölme lost its independence on March 1, 1974, became part of the new unified community Soehlde. Mölme celebrated its 750th anniversary in 2010.
Oil production
In 1935 crude oil was found in the Mölmer Feldmark at a shallow depth. The Elwerath union (now BEB Erdgas und Erdöl ) produced up to 50 oil pumps, but the deposits were exhausted and production was stopped in 1959. To commemorate this chapter of Mölmer's history, the place has three oil rigs on a silver background in the right part of the coat of arms. On the fiftieth anniversary of oil production in 1984, a memorial stone and a disused oil pump were donated to the site, which can be viewed as an industrial monument in the Kohlengasse.
As a reminder, the divided coat of arms of the municipality of Mölme shows grains in the left field and pictures of drilling rigs in the right part.
