history

An Iron Age settlement of the municipality can be proven by urn graves.

The place was first mentioned in 1190 as Gjievenstedt ( site on the Gjieve ). Gjieve is the old name of Jevenau, from which the place name is derived today. The place was originally in a wooded area. However, the forest was largely cut down when Rendsburg was expanded in the 17th century. The church was originally a hall, which was shaped like a cross by the two side buildings from 1605 (north transverse arm) and 1765 (south transverse arm). The shape of the cross is no longer recognizable because an organ was installed in the east behind the altar. There is a baptismal angel in the church . In 1559 the Danish King Christian II visited the place for a consultation about the conquest of Dithmarschen .
