geography

Söderhof is located on the eastern bank of the Innerste . The following places surround the place:

history

Söderhof was on June 6, 1209 in a document from Pope Innocent III. first mentioned. In this document, the Ringelheim Monastery is confirmed to have 26 Hufen (195 ha) of land in Söderhof.

In this first mention of the place name is given with Tserede . Other names for the place are Zerthe (1227), Xzeredhe (1240), Zerede (1255), Tzerde (1322), Zerden (1542), Seerhof (1690) and Söhderhof (1694). The original name Tsedere emerged from the word * ker through a sound change ( zetazism - change into a sibilant sound) , which in Old Saxon means something like turn or turn and in place names has the meaning of a border . The name -hof was later added to the place name to indicate the status of the settlement as an outbuilding of the monastery.

Another interpretation is based on a derivation from the Old High German word kar , which originally stood for a bowl or a vessel, later also got the meaning of a valley basin (used for pasture).

1227 the monastery Ringelsheim received by the Wohld Berger Count the Bailiwick over Söderhof, this pledge was renewed in 1236 and 1251. In 1532 Achen von Cramm sold the monastery hereditary (“as long as it is and remains a monastery”) a piece of land near Söderhof, so that since then the place has belonged to the Ringelheim monastery as a suburb. After the Hildesheim collegiate feud from 1519 to 1523, Söderhof belonged to the Principality of Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel until 1643 . In 1552, the troops of Count Vollrad von Mansfeld from the Schmalkaldic League raided the Duchy of Brunswick and destroyed large parts of the Ringelheim monastery and the Söderhof farm. At the end of the Thirty Years War (1618-1648) the monastery was rebuilt. In Söderhof the monks had already created a fish pond in 1640, from which the monastery could be supplied with fish in order to comply with the rules of the order. The monastery borrowed the money from the Goslar Abbey. The buildings in Söderhof fell into disrepair and as a result the farm buildings of the Söderhof farm collapsed in 1715. Under the direction of the then abbot Bernward Peumann (Bernward I.) the new manor house was completed in 1721, three years later the southern barn. The inscription on the manor house “AO THOUGHT SEBEN HUNDRED TWENTY ONE, BERNWARDUS THE FIRST LAYS THE FIRST STONE.” Is a reminder of this building. The gate passage of the two-story manor house is covered by a cross vault, two small niches with figures of saints remind of the time of the monastery.

On May 5, 1803, the Ringelheim monastery was dissolved. King Friedrich Wilhelm III. transferred the former monastery to the Count von der Schulenburg-Kehnert for his services. On the occasion of the handover on April 29, 1803, the monastery goods were listed, at that time Söderhof included 482 acres of land, 6 acres of garden land and 7 fish ponds with a total of 52 acres. The Count's first tenant was Rudolph Heinrich Jaeger.

In June 1817, Caroline von Hatzfeld zu Trachenberg, b. Countess von der Schulenburg, inherited the Ringelheim estate from her father with the Söderhof farm to Count Johann Friedrich von der Betten (1769–1840). The purchase price was 200,000 thalers. The estate was extensively renovated in the 1840s. Until 1932 Gut Söderhof remained in the possession of the von derdecke family under various tenants.

In 1932 the Söderhof estate was sold to the widow of the entrepreneur August Oetker for 720,000 Reichsmarks . Ringelheim Castle was taken over by the Reichswerke in early 1938 , while Gut Söderhof remained in the possession of the Oetker family. With the establishment of the city of Watenstedt-Salzgitter on April 1, 1942, Söderhof was detached from Ringelheim and incorporated into Haverlah to compensate for the area around the Haverlahwiese mine , which fell to Salzgitter.

In 1947, Oetker sold half of the property to the then tenant of the farm. The other half was sold to the von Alten family from Linden in 1970 . The two buyer families still manage half of the former property today. In the post-war period, the economic upswing in agriculture led to several construction measures and restorations. Today the place consists of the manor with manor park, two ponds and the two large farms. More recently, around a dozen single-family houses have been built alongside the original farm workers' houses.
