history

Mandelsloh is a very old place, where the legendary church was founded as early as 880 by the sister of the Burgundian Duke Osdag. Osdag (Ostdach, Osdacus), Duke of Burgundy, saint and patron saint of the church in Mandelsloh, according to a story by the chronicler Hermann von Lerbeck (around 1400), was killed on February 2, 880 in the battle of Ebstorf , which the Ebstorf martyrs left behind be. He is said to have been buried in Mandelsloh afterwards.

According to the medieval chronicle, a church had existed in the district of “In der Wiek” since the end of the 9th century. Mandelsloh was the seat of a go court, an archdeaconate and a manor. The first written mention is under the name Mandeslum for the year 988. In 1167, Heinricus de Mandeslo , the noble family of Mandelsloh from this place, was first mentioned in a document. Around 1393 a monastery with nine priests was established in the village.

Still very unusual for the time, a lightning rod was installed on the Osdag church between 1782 and 1784.

Mandelsloh originally consisted of the two communities Mandelsloh in the Wiek and Mandelsloh above the lake , which were merged in 1959 to form the community Mandelsloh. On March 1, 1974, the Mandelsloh community was incorporated into the town of Neustadt am Rübenberge.

In 1946 a Catholic parish was established, which initially bought a half-timbered house and set up an emergency church there. In 1976 the Catholic Church of the Immaculate Heart of Mary was built opposite the St. Osdag Church . Most recently she belonged to the parish of St. Peter and Paul in Neustadt am Rübenberge . In 2009 it was profaned and the church and rectory were sold. Today the nearest Catholic churches are each 12 km away in Hagen and Schwarmstedt .

coat of arms

• The design of the coat of arms of Mandelsloh comes from the heraldist and coat of arms painter Gustav Völker , born in Isernhagen and later living in Hanover , who also designed the coats of arms of Großburgwedel , Mellendorf , Wunstorf and many other localities. The approval of the coat of arms was granted on March 15, 1956 by the Lower Saxony Minister of the Interior .
• The former municipalities of Mandelsloh in the Wiek and Mandelsloh above the lake were merged by law on April 1, 1959 to form the municipality of Mandelsloh. The municipality of Mandelsloh has adopted the coat of arms of the municipality of Mandelsloh over the lake . The former community of Mandelsloh in the Wiek did not have its own coat of arms.

Blazon : "In blue under three golden ears standing next to each other,a red-banded , silver horn placedwith the mouthpiece to the right ."

Reasons for the coat of arms: coat of arms and seal represent three ears of corn with a buffalo horn; the buffalo horn was taken as a symbol from the coat of arms of the von Mandelsloh family by mutual agreement. The family coat of arms of the Lords and Counts of Mandelsloh has been used for 800 years. The council of the municipality decided to make this coat of arms of the family that emerged from Mandelsloh according to the oldest documents theirs. As a symbol of the predominantly agricultural population, the coat of arms has three ears of corn in the upper part.

Buildings

• The brick basilica of St. Osdag was probably built by Heinrich the Lion around 1180. It was named after the Burgundian Duke Osdag, who is said to have died in a battle against the Normans. The church is considered to be the first monumental brick building in northwest Germany. The apse is decorated on the outside with a rare double-arched ornament, an intertwined arched frieze also found on the church of the Jerichow monastery and the church of St. Blasii and Marien (Fredelsloh) . In the 1870s, renovation work was carried out on the building under Conrad Wilhelm Hase .
