history

The history of Bissendorf is shaped by the different districts that have been attached to the community over the course of time.

Bissendorf

1160 is the year the district of Bissendorf is first mentioned as Bissendorp in the possession of the Knights of Bissendorf (first mentioned in 1182), who are said to have built a chapel in Bissendorf as early as the 11th century. The manor was the only knight's seat in the district around which the village settled after the construction of today's Catholic St. Dionysius Church. The property had church patronage rights, as well as the state parliament with all associated hunting, fishing, access and trademark rights. The aristocratic family died out around 1750. Today's single village currently has approx. 2,500 (Bissendorf total approx. 14500) inhabitants. The church houses numerous art treasures (early Romanesque baptismal font, triumphal cross from the 13th century, late Gothic carved altar around 1500).

Fetched

The noble family von Holte shaped the development of the district of the same name. The castle built by the noble lords was destroyed in 1147 and not rebuilt. Remnants of the castle ruins have been uncovered and can be viewed. The church in Holte mentioned in 1153 is a foundation of the Holter nobility, so it was a patronage church. The patronage was later held by the von Leden family , who also gave the Ledenburg its name. The family had taken over the ownership of the von Holte family, including 34 hereditary estates. The settlement around the church has been preserved and is now considered one of the most beautiful examples of a church settlement. The meierhof, pastorate, old schoolhouse and inn are grouped around the church. The church settlement is a listed building.

Schledehausen

The noblemen of Sledesen (Schledehausen), episcopal Osnabrück ministers, gave the moated castle and the place their name. In 1396 their ancestral castle was inherited after the noble family had died out through the marriage of Rabodo III. von Schele with the heiress Elisabeth von Sledesen into the possession of the Lords of Schele , who added their coats of arms, the three Wolfsangeln, to their own in memory of the first owners. Sledesen Castle was soon renamed Schelenburg .

Incorporations

Today's municipality of Bissendorf was created through the merger of the municipalities of Bissendorf, Ellerbeck, Holte, Jeggen, Linne, Schelenburg, Schledehausen, Waldmark, Wissingen, Wersche and Wulften on the occasion of the Lower Saxony regional reform , which came into force on July 1, 1972.
