About this picture

Reinbek ( Low German Reinbeek ), located in the southern geest of Schleswig-Holstein , is the second largest city in the Stormarn district with around 27,000 inhabitants . Reinbek is located in the eastern metropolitan area of Hamburg and belongs to the Hamburg metropolitan region .

geography

The east and south borders of Reinbek form the nature-protected Bille dammed up to the mill pond . Some of the areas between the districts are still used for agriculture. Characterized by the neighboring Sachsenwald , Reinbek offers a green, relaxing cityscape. A large part of the city is built up with individual houses, the area around Täby-Platz and the Paul Luckow Stadium consists largely of multi-storey apartment buildings that were built in the style of the 1960s. The tallest of them, the Sachsenwald skyscraper with 20 floors, is on Hamburger Straße. Reinbek includes the districts of Alt-Reinbek , Hinschendorf , Schönningstedt , Neuschönningstedt , Ohe mit Büchsenschinken and the more recent development area Krabbenkamp (→ list of districts and districts of Reinbek ). The next largest directly adjacent metropolitan areas are the Hamburg districts of Bergedorf and Lohbrügge .

history

Numerous barrows testify to the settlement of today's Reinbeck area in prehistoric times . The first documented mention of Reinbek dates back to 1238 and goes back to the founding of the Cistercian monastery of the same name (see Reinbek Monastery ). The oldest known forms of writing of the place name are (ville) Reinebec (1238), (in) Reynebeke (1309 and 1350), (to deme) Reynenbeke (1400) and (tome) Rynenbeke (1466); the name is interpreted as a compound from the basic word bek for "Bach" and the adjective "pure" as a defining word. After the destruction of the monastery (1534), the place only gained importance again with the construction of the palace complex (1572).

The settlement of artisans in the late 18th century finally brought economic growth. The construction of the railway line between Hamburg and Berlin (1846) provided a decisive impetus for the development of the place : Reinbek temporarily became a health resort and popular excursion destination. The old spelling "Reinbeck" was changed on September 1, 1877 by an order on the uniform regulation of the spelling for place names by the provincial government in Schleswig in "Reinbek".

At the end of the Second World War , Germany was gradually occupied. On May 3, 1945 British troops also occupied Reinbek, the neighboring Glinde and the last part of the still unoccupied Stormarn . In addition, the occupation of Hamburg , which had previously been agreed in the Villa Möllering near Lüneburg , began in the afternoon of the day . A day later, Hans-Georg von Friedeburg also signed the surrender of all German troops in northwest Germany, the Netherlands and Denmark on behalf of the last Reich President Karl Dönitz , who had previously left for Flensburg - Mürwik with the last Reich government . The unconditional surrender of the Wehrmacht followed on May 8, 1945. At the end of the war, Reinbek experienced an increase in the influx of refugees and hamburgers who had become homeless as a result of the war.

Since the 1960s, several industrial parks have been developed and expanded. On June 28, 1952, Reinbek received city ​​rights . On January 1, 1974, the community Schönningstedt (with Neuschönningstedt and Ohe ) and part of the community Glinde with then about 100 inhabitants and part of the dissolved community Stemwarde were incorporated.

religion

Reinbek originally belonged to the Steinbek parish until it became an independent Evangelical Lutheran parish in 1894. The neo-Gothic church (today Maria Magdalenen Church) was built in 1901. The Catholic parish was founded in 1908 and the Herz-Jesu-Kirche was built in 1953. In Reinbek, 44% of the population are Protestant and 9% Catholic, 26% belong to other denominations, 22% are without religious affiliation. The most important municipalities in the city are:

Blazon : "A silver wavy bar in red, accompanied by three oak leaves facing each other in a three-pass with the stems, two at the top and one at the bottom."

Spared from the waves of destruction of the Second World War, Reinbek's urban architecture shows a continuous picture through the epochs of North German building history, starting with the Dutch Renaissance and old peasant cottages, through upper -class mansions from the imperial era, clinker expressionism of the Weimar Republic and large residential buildings from the 1970s to more cautious architecture 1990s.

Today the faithfully restored building is available for public use.

  • The Bismarck column on the Hammelsberg between the districts of Krabbenkamp and Schönningstedt, near the former Bismarckschen Gut Schönau, was completed in 1903.
