history

Early traces

In wiping breaking on the shore edge of the former Eyter , the Court Meier were urns found. An urn cemetery from the pre-Roman Iron Age around 700 BC was located here between Lindenstrasse and the lowlands . Chr. To Chr. Birth. A part of the tithe barn still stands on the main road as an extension at the Rennekamp travel agency . Up until the 19th century, farmers here had to give up their tenth part of the harvest to the feudal lords since the Middle Ages . Today the bus station is the mentioned in the 18th century oldest Brinksitzer point Oyten. Next to it stood the old town hall until 1984, which had to give way to the construction of the old federal highway 75. The oldest inn in Oyten, Zum Alten Dorfkrug , used to be a kötnerstelle that was licensed to drink at the beginning of the 17th century. A former barn served as a relaxation area for the horse-drawn carriages. The innkeepers included Clauss Jäger, Albert Meinken, Hermann Schwarmann and Lina Schwalkewitz ("Aunt Lina").

19th century

During the French period in Bremen , the Oyten area belonged to the department of the Weser estuaries from 1811 to 1814 . In the Bremen district was the canton of Achim with the places around Oyten such as Tüchten (50 inhabitants), Hoffstall (25), Heinsberg (12), Große-Hollen (32), Kleinen-Hollen (6), Schaphusen (67), Zum Vieh (46), Bickbeerenheide (6), Carlshop (30), Brammer (8), Mühlendor (13), Nadahe (4), Baßen (352), Oyten (358), Oyterwümme (6), Oytermoor (3), Wischbruch (24), Oytermühle (16), Breitenmoor (104), Oyterzäunen (6), Oyterdamm (81), Sagehorn, Veermoorhusen (130), Meyerdamm (91), Clüverdamm (17) and Bockhorst (130 inhabitants).

After Napoleon's defeat and the subsequent Congress of Vienna , Oyten became part of the Kingdom of Hanover in 1815 . Since 1866 it belonged to the province of Hanover in the Kingdom of Prussia .

In the middle of the 19th century, when Oyten still had around 400 inhabitants, there were four farms, two Kötner sites, five cultivation sites, an inn and a bakery between the current bus station and the town hall. A field stone behind the bus station with the inscription “J. Hollmann - B. Hollmann born Schlobohm - 1871 - No. 40 ”is reminiscent of the old Hollmann blacksmith's workshop. Here two Brinkitzer houses had to give way to a social station.

In 1891, the Kruse siblings built a corner house on Bremen-Harburger-Chaussee, which was run until 1939. Then Hermann Bartelheimer bought the department store. In 1895 a distribution warehouse for the goods cooperative was built, which later served as a dairy, then was Hollings' roller mill and, after 1945, became the Königs Mühlenbäckerei .

20th century to 1945

During the Nazi era , forced laborers were also used in Oyten , mainly in agriculture. At the beginning of the war, an anti-aircraft battery was set up in Oyten on the hill at the western entrance to the town for air raid protection in the greater Bremen area. The accommodation barracks were located along today's Danziger Straße and were initially used by civilians after the end of the war. After the death of two students in the early 1980s due to the explosion of munitions residue , the site was finally cleared of ammunition residues and the ammunition bunkers along Verdenerstrasse and Königsberger Strasse were dug.

Since the important engine production of Borgward was endangered by the increasing air raids on Bremen , the "external plant Ottersberg" was built in the winter of 1943/44 under the direction of the Todt organization . The majority of prisoners of war and forced laborers built six halls in solid or wooden construction in the forest of Nadah . For the production, the staff, also mostly forced laborers or “ Eastern workers ”, were driven to the main factory in Bremen-Sebaldsbrück every working day. A barrack was built for the forced laborers from the Soviet Union. The Ottersberg fieldworks was not bombed and after the end of the war delivered engines for the production of the 3-ton Borgward B 3000 trucks, which was urgently needed in post-war Germany, in Sebaldsbrück .

At the end of the war, at the end of April 1945, there were stubborn fighting in various areas of Oyten. In Sagehorn, on the county road near the Kackebart restaurant, anti-tank barriers were erected against the British units coming over the motorway and advancing towards Wümme. The fallen German soldiers, some of them buried by the wayside, were reburied in a newly built memorial at Oyter Friedhof in the early 1980s.

After 1945

A Hawk anti-aircraft missile position was put into operation in 1966 as part of the Lower Saxony NATO defense belt . The site of the position is in the south of the municipality of Oyten and partly in the area of ​​the city of Achim. After the reunification and restructuring of the Bundeswehr, the missile facility was closed in 1995 and partially dismantled. An industrial park "Oyten-A1" is currently being built on the site and the surrounding area.

The bus station was created in 1985.

Sports

The largest sports clubs in the municipality of Oyten are TV Oyten and TSV Bassen. TV Oyten, founded in 1911, is known nationwide for its first women's handball team. The team currently plays in the 3rd handball Bundesliga.

With the start of the 2017/2018 season, TV Oyten will be represented by the male A-youth team in the JDKB Handball Bundesliga. After 2 qualifying rounds on 27./28. May 2017 in Groß Lafferde and on the 3rd / 4th June 2017 in Hanover-Burgdorf, the team of coach Thomas Cordes, consisting of players born in 1999 and younger, qualified for the youth handball Bundesliga season 2017/2018 and was able to leave some previously established clubs behind.

It has been known since June 16, 2017 that the mA youth team of TV Oyten will play in the north relay and will compete with the following teams: Füchse Berlin, Eintracht Hildesheim, HSV Hamburg, SG Flensburg-Handewitt, SC Magdeburg , VfL Bad Schwartau, THW Kiel, HC Empor Rostock, HSG Grüppenbühren / Bookholzberg and VfL Potsdam.

Both clubs are also particularly active in the field of football.

At the Pestalozzistraße school center there is already a sports hall, a second one on Stader Straße and two soccer fields, one of which has an athletics tartan track and a floodlight system. There is also a tartan handball playing field, a small artificial turf playing field and a skater facility.

In 2009, the relocation of the sports fields from Jahnstraße and the construction of additional sports fields on Pestalozzistraße began, including an artificial turf field. Another sports hall was also built (opening in 2012). Adjacent to the new sports hall, TV Oyten has built its new clubhouse with an exercise hall. The resulting facility has thus become the largest contiguous sports area in the Verden district. The Lower Saxony Football Association has turned the sports facility into one of its youth support centers.

On June 15, 2017, the TV Oyten's beach handball facility, which was expanded to two fields and is located directly at the Stader Strasse sports hall, was inaugurated. The construction work was supported by the Kreissparkasse Verden, the members of the association mostly carried out the work themselves. The first official use of the beach handball facility took place on the weekend of 17/18. June 2017 at a tournament for all age groups, from E-youth to A-youth.

Economy and Infrastructure

economy

Just off the highway exit Oyten at the A 1 located business park Oyten. In recent years, this business park has developed very well thanks to its convenient location, so that only a few remaining areas are available for development. In the previously agriculturally used area south of the motorway, there will be an extension.

Companies from different areas work in the business park. Mechanical engineering, services and logistics are the focus. For Oyten and the wider region, the business park with over 2000 jobs is of great importance. There are many companies that are active throughout Germany, in Europe and in some cases worldwide, in the business park.

traffic

rail

Sagehorn train station in the part of the municipality of the same name is located three kilometers north of the center of Oyten on the Wanne-Eickel-Hamburg railway line . Here, within the framework of the Hanse network , trains of the metronom railway company stop on the Hamburg – Bremen connection and a freight bypass line for the Bremen bypass to Dreye branches off. Individual train connections between Hamburg and Cologne leave Bremen out and use this freight transport link with a journey time reduction of approx. 20 minutes.

On June 3, 2015, the municipal council approved the planning approval process for a new station. The new station is to be built a little further west in the Schwarzer Weg / Sagehorner Dorfstraße area and will cost 3.5 million euros. The relocation was based on an initiative by Deutsche Bahn. A citizens' initiative had collected 2,700 signatures against the move. The local council was originally against it, too, but ultimately agreed because it was feared that Deutsche Bahn could otherwise close Sagehorn station without replacement.
