Postal history

In 1694 the messengers used the route Hamburg - Glückstadt - Itzehoe - Remmels (Hohenwestedt) - Rendsburg and further north. They passed Innien about 10 km to the west . The next post office was then in Rendsburg . Nortorf received a mail on July 1, 1764 . Johan Jacob Ritzius is appointed Nortorf postman. A post office was set up.

In 1879 the "Landwirtschaftliche Verein an der Bünzau" applied for the establishment of a post office. The mail in the Aukrugdörfern came from Nortorf until 1881. A Nortorf postman walked over Schülp - Timmaspe - Krogaspe - Böken - Bünzen - Bargfeld - Homfeld - Bucken - Innien - Gnutz .

In 1881 a post room was rented in the house of the weaver Markus Brüggen (today Hauptstrasse No. 8) and a post office was opened. In 1908 a post office was built in Hauptstrasse 11 and the agency was converted into an independent post office . As part of the reorganization of the postal system at the beginning of the Weimar Republic, the Innien post office was set up again as a postal agency and post offices were set up in the other four Aukrug villages to accept and distribute the mail. In Bünzen the post office was with Hinrich Harms, in Böken with Heinrich Hein (hence the name Poststrasse in Böken), in Bargfeld with Ida Rathjen and in Homfeld with Miss Diekgräf.

At the beginning of April 1930, the first telephone connection in the Innien district was used as a self-connecting device at the telephone exchange. As early as November 1969, the Post informed its customers that with the merger of the Aukrug villages from January 1, 1970, only the new place name 2356 Aukrug would be used. On July 1, 1993, Aukrug received the new five-digit postcode 24613. Since 1996, mail has been delivered from Hohenwestedt. In 1998 the post office was closed and a post office was opened in a grocery store on September 21st. In February 2014, the Post partner branch moved to a Skribo stationery store at the same address through a change of operator . On June 24, 2013 a postcode festival was held at the u. a. 650 Aukruger citizens filled in the digits 2-4-6-1-3 as supposedly the largest human postcode in Schleswig-Holstein .

At the Aukruger zip code festival, 650 Aukrugers formed the largest human zip code in Schleswig-Holstein
