history

Today's church in Marschacht

The original church village was first mentioned in 1216 as "Hachede" . In this document from 1216, Count Albrecht von Orlamünde, governor of the Danish King Waldemar II, granted the citizens of Hamburg exemption from customs at some customs offices, including Hachede. In the Ratzeburg tithe register of 1230, the name of the parish place is "Hagede" , although this spelling apparently reflects the older phonetic form of the place name. It is based on a formation from the old Saxon field name * hag-: "fence, enclosure, hedge, pasture" and the widespread place name suffix -ithi, -ithja (* hag-ithi> * hag-ede). Due to the name formation, the first settlement can be expected in the 9th century at the latest. getting closed. A change in the course of the river cut the place in two, creating the older Hacht an der Geest ( Geesthacht ) north of the Elbe and a younger Hacht an der Marsch (Marschacht) south of the Elbe . It is believed that the old village could have been cut up by the Elbe river as early as the 12th century. The final separation of these two places is said to have taken place at the latest in the middle of the 13th century, when the common church sank in the Elbe (between 1230 and 1258).

Marschacht probably had its own church as early as 1258, because the contract for the cultivation of the marshland from 1258 describes the expansion of the marsh from Bleckede to the parish of Hachede (" palus a Blekethe vsque ad ecclesiam Hachede "), with which the Hacht in the march should be meant. A separate parish of Hachede south of the Elbe is documented in 1308. The name Marschacht only appears in 1428.
