history

The settlement of the area around Nörten-Hardenberg dates back to about the Iron Age , as found in fragments show . In the early 8th century, the region was Christianized from Mainz , which was also due to the fact that the place in what was then Nordgau above the Leinegau offered a favorable starting point for the purposes of proselytizing. Furthermore, the location at the fork of the medieval Harster Heerstraße and the Leinetalstraße favored the early development of a fair. In the middle of the century the foundation stone of the parish church of St. Martini was laid. On the north side of the church, archaeologists found bones from previous burials or reburial in September 2014. The scientists also found the Nörten Abbey Crypt under the former chancel of a previous church .

Between 800 and 1000, a castle complex was built in Leineholz near Nörten. The place was first mentioned in a document in 995. 60 years later, the St. Peter Foundation was founded . In 1098 and 1103 Archbishop Ruthard von Mainz stayed in Nörten. During this time, the castle complex, which was first mentioned in a document after its renovation in 1105, and the archdeaconate of Nörten were established. Around 1500 it reached beyond Einbeck , in the west it was from Solling and between Lippoldsberg and Hann. Münden limited by the Weser. In the south the towns Hedemünden , Friedland , Rustenfelde and Etzenborn then formed the boundary. The Steina Monastery (later Marienstein ) was founded two years earlier . As an archdeaconate, Nörten was the administrative center of the region. In 1287 the Archbishop of Mainz pledged the castle to the Hardenberg and Rosdorf dynasts . In 1303 the entire court district goes to the von Hardenberg family. In 1346 the place including the monastery was completely destroyed. In 1357 the Lords of Hardenberg appear as owners of the castle. In 1360, Archbishop Gerlach of Mainz made Nörten a city with the permission of Emperor Charles IV and granted Frankfurt city ​​rights , while at the same time allowing the construction of a city wall. But the city was destroyed again in 1365. Between the years 1369 and 1389 the expansion of the market settlement probably took place. This fact was promoted by the levy of market differences and the collection of customs duties, since Nörten benefited significantly from its location on the two streets already mentioned. This may also be the reason why the impulses of long-distance trade had a much stronger impact on the local infrastructure than, for example, the establishment of the archdeaconate.

For Nörten, the 15th century was marked by feuds and other armed conflicts, which also contributed to the fact that the place could not develop into a city again. Among these feuds was the one in which Duke Wilhelm of Saxony participated. In 1447 he moved with a large army, in which there were many Hussites , to Soest , which was in feud with the Archbishop of Cologne, and also touched the Principality of Göttingen . According to reports, Wilhelm was three days before the Hardenberg without attacking the castle. Before the troops set out and moved on, they burned Nörten. Another feud overtook the place during the clashes in 1485 between Bishop Bertold von Hildesheim and the city of Hildesheim . Bertold found support from Duke Wilhelm von Braunschweig and his son Heinrich , while the citizens of Hildesheim found support from the cities of Einbeck, Northeim and Göttingen. Heinrich von Hardenberg joined the dukes and thus had the city of Göttingen as an enemy. During the feud, Lütgenrode and Bishausen burned down, Nörten was set on fire in 1486 during the siege of the castle by its own residents in order to forestall the other cities. In further feuds of the Hardenbergers, the place was almost always inevitably affected, which hampered the steady development of the place.

On May 27, 1580, a hail of stones fell over the area of ​​Nörten, causing damage and injuring people and animals here, at Hardenberg Castle and Schloss Hardenberg as well as in Wolbrechtshausen and Lütgenrode, but also in other nearby places. Today this is explained as a meteorite fall with airburst accompanied by a pressure wave and heat .

In 1599 and 1616 there were two major fires in which considerable parts of the town were destroyed. In 1700 the counts grain distillery is founded. Since 1717 Nörten has been allowed to hold three annual markets. In 1744 Mainz finally recognized the property and court claims of those von Hardenberg in Nörten. In 1812 the monastery was abolished. In 1851 the aristocratic court in Hardenberg was also dissolved, and from 1852 to 1859 Nörten was then royal office. In 1854 Nörten was included as a route point of the Hanover Southern Railway , which opened up new opportunities for the town to develop. During this time, industrial companies were established, the former brewery was established, and production facilities for paper and wood products were also built. The oldest company in Nörtens, however, is the brandy distillery , the beginnings of which go back to the 16th century. In 1873 one of the largest sugar factories was opened in Nörten. Since the administrative reform in 1885, the Nörten area has belonged to the Northeim district, whose district court has jurisdiction over court cases. The Catholic Martini Church was rebuilt in 1894 , before an Evangelical Lutheran Church was built ten years later.

In 1928/1929, due to the "law [es] on the regulation of various points of municipal constitutional law", the Nörten spots were combined with Marienstein and the Hardenberg manor district to form the Nörten-Hardenberg spots. This law was passed under the then Prussian Prime Minister Otto Braun and his Interior Minister Albert Grzesinski , on the one hand to democratize manor districts (such as Hardenberg) and on the other hand to save administrative costs by amalgamating several rural communities (such as Marienstein).

In 1947 the "Königshall-Hindenburg" potash plant was reopened in Rodetal near Reyershausen . 1958 saw the inauguration of the A7 motorway section from Nörten to Northeim as part of the important north-south axis. In 1987 the town twinning began with the municipality of Bondoufle in France.

In the 1980s, as part of the construction of the high-speed line Hanover – Würzburg , the Nörten-Hardenberg station was fundamentally rebuilt.

Incorporations

On February 1, 1971, the municipality of Elvese was incorporated. On March 1, 1974, Angerstein, Bishausen, Lütgenrode, Parensen, Sudershausen and Wolbrechtshausen were added.

Noble families

The von Nörten family, probably originally from Nörten, became extinct in the late Middle Ages. Most recently they were probably based in neighboring Göttingen.

Around 1000, representatives of an immigrant noble-free family were employed as employers of the Archbishop of Mainz at his castle near Nörten. This family succeeds in acquiring possessions and rights in the Nörtner area through a consistent family and rule policy. Soon she called herself von Hardenberg after her place of work, the castle on the Hardenberg .

A line of the von Hardenberg family still lives in the community today . This family came from among others

Since 1987 there has been a lively and friendly partnership with the French community of Bondoufle (35 km south of Paris ). One street was named after the twin town.

coat of arms

Coat of arms of Nörten-Hardenberg
Blazon : "In blue, two facing, red-armored golden lions holding a golden pretzel with one front paw and a golden crown with the other."
Justification for the coat of arms: In a secretion from around 1550, only a pretzel can be seen in the seal of that time , while in the stain seal of the late 17th century it appears with a crown placed on it. At that time it was cleared of oak branches. In the 18th century the lions were added, alluding to the Hanoverian rule of 1692. The similarity of the coat of arms with that of the bakery trade explains that of Nörten-Hardenberg with the earlier baker's guild in the village.
