history

Like many other Eschdörfer in the region, Mansie and Lindern have been settled continuously since the Carolingian era , i.e. from the 9th or 10th century. During systematic archaeological excavations in the middle of the 20th century, however, much older traces of settlement were found in Mansie. So there was on the verge of Mansier Esch's a settlement from the pre-Roman Iron Age between the 9th century BC and the birth of Christ ( Hallstatt or La Tène ), and during the Roman Empire something was higher on the Esch a settlement that probably the Chauken associate is.

In Mansie, formerly Mans Ingen was in the 13th century near the ancient Heerwegs of Oldenburg about Apen to empty the Burgmans Ingen . This motte with features of a Gräftenburg was one of several protective defenses that the Counts of Oldenburg had built on the borders of the Ammerland to protect against attacks by the neighboring East Frisians . It was the ancestral seat of the Knights of Mansingen , which is documented from 1226 to 1425. After the family presumably died out after this point in time, the castle also seems to have fallen into disrepair. Today only the ramparts and the former castle square are preserved. The site has been under landscape protection since 2003.

In 1457 there was fighting on the Ammerland-East Frisian border. In January Ulrich Cirksena , later Count Ulrich I of East Frisia , invaded the Ammerland and burned Apen . In retaliation, Count Gerd the Brave of Oldenburg attacked the East Frisian villages of Hollen and Detern . Thereupon the East Frisians again moved against the Ammerland and plundered and destroyed Westerstede, Linswege , Hüllstede , Mansie and Lindern. On March 28, 1457, farmers from the Ammerland region finally lay in wait for the retreating East Frisians in Seggernford , which the military route between Mansie and Fikensolt crossed, and defeated the East Frisians. In 1912 the "Friesendenkmal" was erected in Seggernford to commemorate those who fell in this battle.

The further development of the two villages has been agricultural since then. In 1677 the first school was founded in Mansie. In 1679, according to the contribution register of the county of Oldenburg, there were nine house husbands - and one mutt post in Mansie . The oldest farm was first mentioned in a document in 1382. The contribution register records four househusband positions for Lindern, the oldest of which can be traced back to 1428.

There has been a garbage dump in Mansie since 1969 , which was operated by the municipality of Westerstede until 1975 and since then by the district of Ammerland.

The current district head of Mansie-Lindern is Herbert Hobbje .
