Neuenwalde coat of arms
 Blazon : "In red on a green shield base coveredwith silver wavy stripes ,a silver bell tower with a golden bell in a black sound hole , golden gate and golden cross on top ."
Justification of the coat of arms: The bell tower is reminiscent of the monastery, which was moved to Neuenwalde in 1334 and which had the greatest importance for the development of the village. The silver wavy stripe on the green shield base indicates the Mühlenbach in the meadows.

Culture and sights

Buildings

Neuenwalde women's monastery
  • Neuenwalde Monastery: In 1219 the forerunners of the Neuenwalde Monastery were founded in Midlum on the edge of the Geestrücke Hohe Lieth by the noblemen of Diepholz on their inheritance. The local Benedictine nuns had to move twice because of their hostility to the residents of Wursten , first in 1282 to Altenwalde and finally in 1334 to Neuenwalde. The Reformation was introduced around 1571. In the chaos of the Thirty Years' War , the monastery was burned down because the Swedish occupiers had not kept a contract. During this difficult time, the reconstruction proceeded only at considerable expense and very slowly. After the Thirty Years' War, the monastery was given the knighthood of the Duchy of Bremen- Verden in 1683 from the Swedish rulers of that time under King Charles XI. The intention was to offer the unmarried daughters of the nobles an independent support facility as conventual women of the monastery. Until 2015 the monastery was run by a prioress. Even today (2018) the monastery is inhabited by conventual women. Since 2014, parts of the building complex have been used by the Bad Bederkesa Evangelical Education Center on the basis of a cooperation agreement .
  • Holy Cross Church: The monastery church has also been the parish church for Neuenwalde and Krempel since its foundation. The cross relic to which it was dedicated has been mentioned there since 1334. In 1629 the roof and interior were destroyed in a major fire. When it was rebuilt between 1630 and 1634, it received its present form and a large part of the interior. The bell tower has remained almost unchanged since it was built in 1334.
