Petershagen [ peːtɐsˈhaːgn ] ( Low German : Päitershaugen ) in the Minden-Lübbecke district is a town in the extreme north-east of North Rhine-Westphalia , north of Minden an der Weser and Ösper , in the unification of the former offices of Petershagen and Windheim zu Lahde (a total of 29 localities) Northeast of the Mindener Land . The districts of Petershagen and Lahde, located opposite each other on the Weser, form the core .
geography
Geographical location
The urban area is located in the extreme northeast of the district of Minden-Lübbecke and North Rhine-Westphalia. After Rahden, Petershagen is one of the northernmost communities in the country.
Petershagen lies on both sides of the Weser in the North German Plain . Aside from Porta Westfalica , Petershagen is the only municipality in North Rhine-Westphalia with the greater part of its area to the right of the Weser. There is hardly any noticeable elevation. Most of the villages are at an altitude of between 40 and 50 m above sea level. NN . The Weser crosses the urban area in a strongly meandering manner from south to north. In the floodplains of the Weser, there are numerous lakes and ponds, especially in the area of Hävern and Windheim. Between Döhren and Lahde, a lock canal running parallel to and east of the Weser and a significantly shorter canal running west to the Weser shorten the “Wasserstraße Weser”. In terms of nature, this section of the river is counted as part of the Middle Weser Valley . The larger tributaries of the Weser in the urban area include the Aue , the Ösper , the Rottbach and the Gehle .

In the east the urban area has a share in the Loccumer Geest , in the west in the Rahden-Diepenauer Geest . Like the middle Weser valley, the above natural areas are part of the Dümmer-Geest lowland, a sub-area of the North German lowlands. In terms of culture, Petershagen is in the Mindener Land .
The closest major cities are Bielefeld (50 kilometers southwest), Osnabrück (64 kilometers west) and Hanover (50 kilometers east).
geology
Most areas are near the surface of Quaternary rocks that cover deeper layers of rock from the Mesozoic Era. Layers of the uppermost chalk come to light in individual hills . The soils are predominantly sandy and not very fertile geest soils . In the Weseraue the area can only be used extensively for agriculture.
Petershagen is mediocre in the western area, good in eastern locations, and very well suited in individual locations for the use of geothermal heat sources by means of a geothermal probe and heat recovery through heat pump heating (see the adjacent map).
Expansion and use of the urban area
With an area of about 211 square kilometers, Petershagen is by far the largest city in the Minden-Lübbecke district and the fifth largest municipality in the state in terms of area. The maximum north-south extension is approx. 23 km, the maximum west-east extension around 21 km. The highest point in the urban area is the Lusebrink in the village of Neuenknick at 79.1 m above sea level. NN , the lowest point is the Weser in the northern town of Wasserstraße at 27 m above sea level. NN .
Around 70% of the urban area is used for agriculture; this value is only around 50% for North Rhine-Westphalia and around 66% in the district. In contrast, the proportion of settlement and traffic area in the state and district comparison is low at 13.6% (national average: 22.2%, district average: 19.1%). The proportion of water bodies is comparatively high due to the Weser, its side channels and numerous lakes in the floodplains. As in the entire district, the proportion of forest is below half the national average. With the exception of the Heisterholz forest south of the city center and the Minden Forest with around 750 hectares in the west of the urban area, there are hardly any larger contiguous forest areas. Small parts of the 4,000 hectare Schaumburg Forest , which borders the city to the east, are in the Petershäger area.

nature
fauna
Petershagen has the only red deer district in the Minden-Lübbecke district, apart from a tiny portion of this area, which extends to the area of the city of Minden. To the east of the federal highway B 482 to the state border is red deer area. The district is around 9,000 hectares, including 250 hectares in the very south in the Minden city area. H. red deer are allowed to live here as standing game; outside it is consistently shot down. The red deer population density is low, however, with 0-15 animals per 1,000 hectares. To the east, the red deer area in Lower Saxony continues into the Schaumburg Forest.

The climate in Petershagen is determined by its location in the ocean-continental transition area of Central Europe and by its location in the North German Plain and in the Weser Valley. The area is mostly in the sub-Atlantic maritime climate , but has temporary continental influences . The winters are mostly mild under the influence of the Atlantic, the summers are moderately warm and the rainfall is relatively evenly distributed. Westerly and southwesterly winds predominate, which bring precipitation with them. The mean annual temperature is around 9.5 ° C. The annual precipitation amounts to a long-term average between about 650 mm and about 700 mm. This makes Petershagen one of the driest and warmest areas in East Westphalia .

history
The first evidence of a settlement in Petershagen go back to the Paleolithic as well as the Bronze and Iron Ages . The first Cherusci settled around the birth of Christ in today's Petershagen. Saxon settlers founded the first localities in the following centuries.
In 784 Charlemagne was unable to cross the Weser here due to a flood. In this context, the place was mentioned for the first time - under the name Huculvi .
The place was later called Hockeleve . In 1306 the Minden bishop Gottfried von Waldeck had a castle built here, named after St. Peter, the patron saint of his diocese. It was given the name Petershagen , which was later transferred to the place. From 1545 to 1547 the castle was expanded into a palace by the master of the Weser Renaissance, Jörg Unkair . From 1608 to 1611, Christian von Braunschweig-Lüneburg had the palace rebuilt further.
In 1648 the Principality of Minden became part of Brandenburg through the Peace of Westphalia . The seat of the Brandenburg government remained in the castle until 1669; 1649–1659 the castle was also the residence of the Brandenburg governor.
From 1654 to 1656 witch hunts were carried out in the Protestant Petershagen . In the witch trials 39 people, 35 women and 4 men, were executed for alleged sorcery.
In 1810 the area was divided between the two offices of Petershagen and Schlüsselburg . The French Empire received the parts to the left of the Weser, and the areas on the right became the Royal Westphalian Canton of Windheim.
A teachers' seminar was set up in 1831 after teachers for elementary schools had been trained in Petershagen since 1792. The teachers' seminar existed until 1925.
During the Second World War , the Lahde Labor Education Camp (AEL) of the Hanover Gestapo office was set up in Petershagen-Lahde from spring 1943 to April 1945 . The prisoners were used to build the Lahde coal-fired power plant, the cooling water drain, the Bierderloh substation and the railway line from the station to the power plant. Further labor camps were located in the Wesermarsch near the military construction site (probably Jewish workers, dissolution 1940) and north of the AEL Lahde at the power plant construction site ("Ostarbeiterlager", dissolution April 1945).
In view of the expected immigration of around 150 “power planter families”, the Windheim office adjusted from 1942 to the growing central importance of Lahde for the area east of the Weser by planning a new building area and improving the local infrastructure. However, the construction work made only slow progress until the end of the war. The acts of war on the ground ended in the period from April 5 to 8, 1945 with the occupation of today's urban area by British troops (6th Airborne Division). In the urban area and the surrounding area there were still isolated fighting with fallen soldiers on both sides. On the evening of April 4, 1945, one day before British troops (6th Airborne Division) marched into the village of Petershagen, according to oral tradition, the anti-tank barrier built by the Volkssturm on the Ösperbrücke (today Mindener Strasse) was rendered unusable by some residents.
From April 9, 1945, Detachment 127 of the military government set up a "Displaced Persons Assembly Center" (DPAC) in some of the villages of the Windheim zu Lahde office (Lahde, Bierde, Ilserheide, Raderhorst, Frille Wietersheim, Päpinghausen) as well as in Cammer in Schaumburg. The local population, including the German bomb evacuees and refugees, was largely evacuated. Subsequently , thousands of liberated prisoners of war, forced laborers and prisoners were housed separately according to nationalities in the localities, now " DP camps ". After Germany surrendered , UNRRA Team 65 (United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration) took over the administration of DPAC Lahde under the control of the military government.
According to British information, the occupancy rate at the end of May 1945 was around 20,000 displaced persons . According to German information, between 12,000 and 17,000 "homeless foreigners" lived in the DPAC Lahde until its dissolution in September 1949. The immediate repatriation of the Baltic, Polish and Ukrainian DPs planned by the Western Allies was delayed by several years, mainly because these states had come under the rule of the Soviet Union. With the dissolution of the Päpinghausen camp in spring 1948, the dismantling of the DPAC Lahde began, which was completed in September 1949 with the dissolution of the Lahde camp. The local population returned to their localities and immediately began to rebuild.
After the Second World War, the expansion of the Mittelweser, which had been planned in the 1930s, was implemented. In 1953, the Petershagen barrage with an integrated run-of-river power plant was put into operation, which on the one hand guaranteed inland navigation a greater draft all year round and on the other hand decisively changed the river landscape near Petershagen. The coal-fired power plant in Lahde was also connected to the grid in 1953 under the name “ Heyden I ”. The planned new building area in the village was built like the "power station settlement" in the sixties according to a revised concept.
Central places of remembrance and learning in the urban area of Petershagen are the former synagogue in Petershagen, the Jewish cemeteries in Frille, Petershagen and Wasserstraße, the memorial of the Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge eV on the Seeberg in Ilvese, especially in connection with the time of National Socialism Memorial stone for the labor education camp (AEL) Lahde, the communal burial ground for the victims of war and tyranny on the Lutheran. Look at the cemetery in Lahde and the "Ostarbeiterfriedhof" in Bierde.
In 1970 the Weser Bridge was built in Petershagen. The ferry service between Petershagen and Lahde was discontinued.
Since 1898, today's urban area to the left of the Weser has been opened up by the Minden– Uchte railway line of the Mindener Kreisbahnen (MKB) with stops in Heisterholz, Petershagen, Bad Hopfenberg, Gernheim and Ovenstädt. The regular passenger traffic from Petershagen to Uchte was discontinued in 1967, from Petershagen to Minden in 1974, the goods traffic and a tourist operation of the Minden Museum Railway in stages between 1973 and 1980. The Friedewalde district, which is now part of Petershagen, has also been developed with stations by the MKB since 1915 in Südfelde, Friedewalde and the Wegholm terminus. Passenger traffic on this route ceased in 1959 and goods traffic in 1975.
Since 1921 the Nienburg – Minden railway line has been running on the right bank of the Weser through the area of today's city of Petershagen; of the original train stations in Schluesselburg, Heimsen, Döhren, Windheim, Lahde and Frille, only the train station in Lahde remained in operation.
Incorporations
Today's city of Petershagen was created in a territorial reform under the Bielefeld Act of October 24, 1972 with effect from January 1, 1973. For this purpose, 29 of the 36 legally independent municipalities of the offices of Windheim and Petershagen in the Minden district were combined. The remaining seven communities of the former offices were incorporated into Minden. The 29 combined former communities form today's districts of Petershagen. At the same time, Petershagen became a municipality in the newly formed Minden-Lübbecke district. After January 1, 1973 there were no further reclassifications or incorporations into the urban area.

religion
The population is predominantly Evangelical-Lutheran after the prince-bishopric of Minden accepted the evangelical doctrine and at the latest since it was secularized in 1648 and was added to Protestant Prussia as the Principality of Minden . Smaller shifts in the denominational landscape were the result of general internal migration and secularization, the influx of ethnic repatriates from Eastern Europe and the influx of southern European guest workers after the Second World War.
The Protestant congregations belong to the Minden church district and are located in the districts of Buchholz, Friedewalde, Heimsen, Lahde, Ovenstädt, Petershagen, Schluesselburg and Windheim. The Catholic community belongs to the Mindener Land pastoral network with churches in Petershagen (St. Johannes Baptist) and Lahde (St. Maria).
An indication of the distribution can be the denomination of the Petershäger students. According to this, around 77% of the students are Protestant, 5% Catholic, 1% Islamic. 8% say they belong to another denomination and 10% do not consider themselves to be a denomination.
politics
mayor
The first mayor of the newly founded city of Petershagen was the mayor of the community Jössen Wilhelm Krömer (CDU) in 1973 , he held this honorary position until the new election in 1994, when the council surprisingly voted 20 to 19 over the SPD candidate Herbert Marowsky Votes voted against the incumbent mayor Krömer, who then became deputy mayor. After the amendment of the municipal code by the state parliament of North Rhine-Westphalia and the abolition of the previous municipal "dual leadership" of honorary mayor and full-time city director , the majority of the CDU and FDP took the opportunity to appoint the then city director of the city of Petershagen Joachim Thiele (CDU) to be elected first full-time mayor in 1994.
After internal quarrels within the CDU Petershagen, Joachim Thiele was not nominated again for the 1999 local elections, but Heinrich Schaper (CDU), against whom SPD candidate Marianne Schmitz-Neuland (SPD) prevailed in the runoff election with 54.8%. In the local elections in 2004 she was re-elected mayor in the first ballot with a result of 62.33% against Hermann Kleinebenne (CDU).
In the mayoral election in 2009, the CDU candidate Dieter Blume prevailed with 45.85% against Ingo Ellerkamp (SPD), Günter Wehmeyer (FDP) and Klaus Behrmann. In the mayoral election on May 25, 2014, he was confirmed in office with 56.13% of the valid votes.
