geography

Geographical location

Buxtehude lies on the border between the Stader Geest , the Lüneburg Heath and the Altes Land , i.e. the Elbmarsch. The urban area north of the railway line is on the flat marshland , the southern districts on the hilly Geest . In the district of Neukloster there is a forest that is worth seeing, with in places untouched landscape and three large mill ponds. From south to north, the urban area is traversed by the Este , which here has a width of about three to five meters. The geographical altitude in the old town is about 5 meters above sea ​​level (see overview), but varies between individual areas in the moor that are even a few centimeters below sea level up to the height of 51 meters above sea level, the Bullenberg. On the Bullenberg there is a water storage of the Stadtwerke Buxtehude (SWB).

history

Early history

The Spitzwecken from Ovelgönne with an attempt at reconstruction

In 1952, the Ovelgönne Spitzwecken was found in the Buxtehude district of Ovelgönne . It is part of a bread roll from the Pre-Roman Iron Age.

Since a city council resolution in 1980, urban archeology and the preservation of monuments have been politically planned in Buxtehude and implemented administratively since 1993 by a separate specialist group for building regulations and monument protection in the city's building and building regulations office.

Surname

Hude places form a group of place names. They are common in Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg, Mecklenburg, Lower Saxony, the Netherlands (-hijde) and England (-hithe) . Buxtehude was called Buochstadon (= stade ) when it was first mentioned in 959 . It was not until 1135 that the name Buchadihude came up, which over time became Buxtehude.

Buxtehude since the Middle Ages

Since 959 there was a rural settlement on the Este with the name “Buochstadon”, mentioned in a deed of donation from King Otto I to the Mauritius monastery in Magdeburg. The name probably means "beech site". A ship landing site (“hude”) constructed from stakes was found near the settlement.
In 1197 the settlement was expanded to include a Benedictine monastery (" Altkloster ") on the Geest .

1747: Floor plan of the town of Buxtehude by Nicolaus Rohlfs

Between 1280 and 1285 Archbishop Giselbert von Bremen had a city fortress built about one kilometer north of this settlement. This was first called Neustadt and later took over the name Buxtehude. The Estonians were led through the city in a canal- like Flethanlage . The moat was designated with the Dutch word Viver (vijver; Eng. Pond, pond). Five kennels were later added to protect them, of which only the Marschtorzwinger is preserved today. 1285 is officially the year the city was founded.

1328 the award was the Stader town charter by Archbishop Borchard , that meant for the city's full autonomy and economic independence by a council constitution. In 1363 Buxtehude became a member of the Hanseatic League and experienced its heyday.

With the first Lutheran preacher, the Reformation moved into Buxtehude in 1541 .
After the outbreak of the Thirty Years' War , Buxtehude was also ravaged by the plague . From 1627 onwards there was a brief Catholic restitution by the imperial general Tilly . After Buxtehude was conquered by the Swedish general Tott in 1632 , it fell into the possession of the anti-Swedish coalition during the Northern War in 1676 after the conquest of the Duchy of Bremen-Verden . In the course of the Peace of Nijmegen , Buxtehude fell back to Sweden from 1679 to 1712.

During the French era , from 1811 and 1814, Buxtehude was part of the canton of Buxtehude in the Département des Bouches de l'Elbe , which also included Mairie Estebrugge and Moorende-Ostseite, Mairie Haßelwerder and Mairie Moisburg.

Buxtehude was an independent administrative unit as a town until 1885, when it was attached to the Jork district . In 1932, when this district was dissolved, Buxtehude came to the Stade district , to which it still belongs to this day.

Since April 28, 2014, Buxtehude has been nicknamed Hanseatic City in the city name.

Witch hunt

The peak of the witch hunt in the late 16th and early 17th centuries coincided with a profound change in the field of criminal justice. Since 1532, the Embarrassing Court Regulations of Emperor Charles V ( Constitutio Criminalis Carolina ) developed into the decisive legal basis in the field of criminal law in general and especially in the field of witch trials . The Carolina regulated the widespread torture for obtaining confessions for the first time , thereby creating a certain degree of legal security for the accused. However, due to a severability clause, regional law was still applicable. Its use was only slowly pushed back in favor of the Carolina and for decades led to criminal trials with sometimes excessive use of the "embarrassing questioning".

The Criminal Court Code of the Archbishop of Bremen issued in 1603 , the edict of the trial in sorcery cases , was not only based almost literally on the Carolina, but also expressly propagated its validity.

Witchcraft was only treated as one offense among many, not as an exceptional crime (crimen exceptum) that justified a special procedure. The notorious Hexenhammer was therefore not used to justify judgments in northern German courts.

Between 1540 and 1644 there were a total of 21 witch trials in Buxtehude, and 18 women were executed. The persecution was thus far less intense than in southern Germany, for example in the Bamberg monastery , where around 900 people were killed at that time.

A decree of Queen Christina of Sweden of 1649 ushered in the end of the witch trials in the Duchy of Bremen-Verden .

The Hexenkartothek , created from 1935 on behalf of Heinrich Himmler , tried to incorporate the early modern witch hunt for the völkisch Nazi ideology . For this purpose, employees of the so-called H-Sonderkommando recorded a collection process in the former diocese of Verden in July 1940.

On April 19, 2016, the City Council of Buxtehude decided to symbolically make amends for the witch trials in Buxtehude by erecting a memorial at the historic town hall. Since November 2017, three bronze plaques have been commemorating the historical events.

Political-territorial affiliation

From its first documentary mention in 959 until the Reformation, Buxtehude belonged to the diocese of Verden in the ecclesiastical province of Mainz . From a secular and political point of view, however, it was subordinate to the Prince Archbishop of Bremen from the 11th century . With the Peace of Westphalia in 1648, its territory fell to Sweden together with the likewise secularized monastery Verden as the Duchy of Bremen-Verden with its administrative headquarters in Stade . After the Congress of Vienna , this territory became part of the Kingdom of Hanover in 1815 and belonged to the German Confederation . Annexed by Prussia in 1866 , the Kingdom of Hanover lost its independence and was a Prussian province when the empire was founded in 1871 . Since the Second World War , the area of ​​the former province of Hanover has belonged to the state of Lower Saxony, which was newly founded in 1946 .

Incorporations

In 1931 the parishes of Altkloster, until then in the district of Stade, and Neuland were incorporated into the city of Buxtehude. On July 1, 1972, the communities Daensen , Dammhausen , Eilendorf , Hedendorf, Immenbeck , Ketzendorf , Neukloster, Ottensen and Ovelgönne were incorporated, with Daensen, Eilendorf, Immenbeck, Ketzendorf and Ovelgönne belonging to the Harburg district until then .

Result of the incorporations

The area Ovelgönne / Ketzendorf / Immenbeck and Eilendorf still belongs to the Protestant parish of Elstorf , not to the Buxtehude parishes. The Ottensen area belongs ecclesiastically to Apensen. However, this is ignored by most parents who still have their children confirmed in Buxtehude. Hedendorf still has the Horneburg area code (04163) and Ketzendorf and parts of Ovelgönne the Elstorfer area code (04168).

In Hedendorf and Neukloster there are still local councils with the local mayors elected from their midst, in the other localities there are local councilors who are supposed to represent the interests of the citizens from the localities in the city council and towards the city administration.

Current localities of Buxtehudes: Westmoor, Weide, Vogelsang, Ovelgönne / Ketzendorf, Ottensen, Ostmoor, Neuland, Neukloster, Immenbeck, Eilendorfermoor, Eilendorf, Dammhausen and Daensen (consisting of the districts Daensen, Heimbruch and Pippensen).

coat of arms

Heraldic shield
Great coat of arms of Buxtehude.svg
 Blazon : “On a blue shield two diagonally crossed, upward-pointing golden keys with turned away beards, raised by a black cross with paws. On the helmet with blue and gold covers, two blue and gold buffalo horns divided across the corner, with another black paw tip crossed between them. "
Justification for the coat of arms: The black cross with paws is also found in the coat of arms of the Diocese of Verden , the crossed Petruskeys in the coat of arms of the Archdiocese of Bremen , to which Buxtehude belonged for a long time. The colors blue and yellow were the colors of the Swedish state and war flags during the Swedish conquest of Buxtehude in the 17th century.

The seal stamp (Typar) is exhibited in the Buxtehude Museum of Local History.

Town twinning

Buxtehude maintains the following city ​​partnerships :

International memberships

Buxtehude is a member of the European Route of Brick Gothic Association and the HANSE association of cities .

Culture and sights

Old town

Urban redevelopment area

The state spatial planning program of Lower Saxony identifies the city of Buxtehude as a medium-sized center with the special development tasks of “housing and commercial economy”. To achieve this development goal, the Buxtehude city center has been thoroughly modernized since the 1970s.

In 1978 the city of Buxtehude issued a design statute to protect the cityscape in the old town.

In May 2002 the city presented a final report on the formal redevelopment measure "Old Town", which was made possible with funds from public urban development funding and a private initiative. The redevelopment agency commissioned by the city was NILEG Norddeutsche Immobiliengesellschaft .

Since 2009 the so-called town hall district between Breite Straße, Lange Straße and Kirchenstraße has been under the special protection of a conservation statute .

Buildings

St. Peter's Church

  • Evangelical parish church of St. Petri. The three-aisled vaulted brick basilica with a western tower in front was built towards the end of the 13th century. The completion of the building is expected to be around 1320. The original tower was destroyed by lightning in 1853. The subsequent restoration was carried out according to plans by the Hamburg-based architect J. Wimmel. The tower of the St. Petri Church is the landmark of the Hanseatic city of Buxtehude. Several valuable pieces of equipment are preserved partly in the church and partly in the city museum.
  • The Marschtorzwinger at the Liebfrauenkirchhof has been preserved as part of the medieval city fortifications and is now used for exhibitions, readings and other public events.
  • The medieval town hall from 1418 was destroyed by fire in 1911 together with the neighboring residential buildings. The current new building was designed by the architect Alfred Sasse (Hanover). It is a brick building in the style of homeland security architecture with a polygonal corner tower. Inside, remains of the old furnishings from the 16th century from the previous building were inserted.
  • Old market hall (brewery), Kirchenstrasse 13 . In the Buxtehuder brewery, built in 1912/1913 as a cattle market hall in neo-Romanesque forms, two types of beer were brewed: Buxtehuder Pilsener and Buxtehuder Dunkel. These beers could be drunk in the restaurant of the same name, but could also be purchased. The Buxtehuder Brauhaus had a large hall and a winter garden, in which music events (mainly jazz) often took place.
    The brewery was closed at the end of 2011. As part of the construction of the so-called Rathausquartier , the listed rooms will be used as technical rooms for the new shopping     gallery for air conditioning and heating systems.
  • Flethmühle . The former grain mill , built in the 19th century, was converted into a residential and commercial building in 1979.
  • Town houses: The urban monument protection was able to preserve a number of older residential buildings in the old town. Closed streets are as good as nonexistent, but the street on the West Fleth still gives an approximate impression of the originally gable-side buildings. Almost without exception, the residential buildings were constructed using timber-frame technology, solid buildings remained the exception until the 19th century. However, several houses were later plastered or even provided with massive fronts, so that today they appear as stone buildings.
    Lange Straße 25 is the only remaining late medieval stone building in the city. Erected from large-format bricks above a high basement, it probably dates from the second quarter of the 16th century. The large pointed arch portal shows a richly profiled garment with rope and pear rods. The associated rear building was built in 1548 as a half-timbered building.
    The half-timbered buildings at Abtstraße 3 , Westfleth 35 and the rear buildings at Lange Straße 37 and St. Petri-Platz 13 also date from the mid-16th century .
    One of the town's particularly lavishly designed town houses is the house at Fischerstraße 3, which was built around 1600 and today belongs to the Heimatverein. Rich     flat carvings can be found on the hunched foot struts . Breite Straße 17 , which was probably built around the same time, is designed in a similar way . Abtstraße 6 was the town house of the archabbots of Harsefeld since the 15th century. The house with figural consoles was rebuilt in 1618–1628. Kirchenstrasse 5 was built in the 17th century . During the renovation carried out in 1977, the Utlucht was restored. Stucco ceilings have been preserved in houses Westfleth 29 , marked 1768 and no. 45 . Westfleth 25 , a two-story building with a mansard roof, was built at the end of the 19th century. It still has the old front door from the Rococo period . On the rear part of the property there are remains of the medieval city ​​wall . On August 14, 1911, a fire broke out in the rear building of what was then the Koop inn on Breiten Straße , which destroyed not only the medieval town hall but also numerous older residential buildings. This area, which extended to Kirchenstrasse, was then completely rebuilt. Recently there have been renewed interventions in the historical building fabric. For example, in the spring of 2010, houses no. 13 and 15 in the Breite Strasse were demolished in favor of a new business building, but half-timbered facades similar to the previous buildings were placed on the street side.

Buxtehude · Museum

Half-timbered facade of the local history museum from 1913
Sign at the entrance of Buxtehude with the tower of the St. Petri Church (left) and Marschtorzwinger (right). Above it a rabbit and a hedgehog.

The museum with the elaborate half-timbered facade was built in 1911 by the soap manufacturer Julius Cäsar Kähler as a purpose-built museum for the collections of the Museum Association founded in 1880 (today the Heimatverein Buxtehude) and opened as a museum of local history on February 9, 1913. In 1992, a new building to which the main entrance was relocated was significantly enlarged and conceptually and creatively modernized. The museum combines regional history and art: the museum of local history offers interesting facts about the fairy tale of the race between rabbits and hedgehogs, home decor and old craftsmanship. In the new building, the historical development of the city and "Buxtehude in modern times" are presented. The exhibition is complemented by contemporary artistic works that deal with the collection. In the “sacred tower”, Christian works of art and their restoration are shown in the context of modern conceptual art. In 1997, the British artist Michael Craig-Martin transformed the rooms into a walk-in painting. Among other things, the medieval Passion Altar, a triumphal cross group and other sacred works of art are worth seeing. The Buxtehude · Museum regularly presents special exhibitions on art and regional history topics. In addition, the museum acts as the publisher of the Buxtehude museum books, which have been published since 1992.

Fairytale town

Buxtehude is also known as the fairytale town. The fairy tale of the race between the hare and the hedgehog by Dr. Wilhelm Schröder (included in the collection of children's and house tales by the Brothers Grimm ) plays in Buxtehude (although Schröder originally heard it in the similar-sounding town of Bexhövede ). The hare and the hedgehog, with the tower of the St. Petri Church and the Marschtorzwinger, are among the landmarks of the city and are their mascots . They have been represented since 1968 as a hare and hedgehog fountain, designed by Fritz Fleer . Buxtehude has been on the German Fairy Tale Route since the end of 2007 .

Buxtehude is also mentioned in many other children's books, for example in Otfried Preußler's Der Räuber Hotzenplotz , in which the magician Petrosilius Zwackelmann flies to a friend who is a magician in Buxtehude. Also in the illustrated book Hein Schlotterbüx from Buxtehude by Barbara Bartos-Höppner and also in Duck Noise in Buxtehude . The city also plays a role
in the German film Tante Trude from Buxtehude from 1971.

It is noteworthy that in Buxtehude the saying goes "dogs bark with their tails". According to a bronze plaque that is attached to a small memorial in front of the Sparkasse Harburg-Buxtehude, this is a Dutch saying: “De Hunten bellen”, which means “the church bells are ringing”. Since in Buxtehude the bells had already been rung with a rope pull when it was done with a clapper elsewhere, the visual comparison of the tail and the rope pull as well as the Dutch language led to the saying that dogs would bark with their tails in Buxtehude. However, this derivation cannot be proven, and bells in Dutch were never called Hunte. Other sources suspect, due to the unusual place name with "x", a transfer of a similar saying from East Prussia , which was known there in connection with the village " Kraxtepellen ".

Another anecdote is the story of the blacksmith with the miracle cures. This says that there is a blacksmith in Buxtehude who, with the help of his daughter, has mastered the art of steeling Membrum virile . This story is told in order to make fun of precisely those who apparently need a corresponding improvement in nature.

Youth Book Prize

Buxtehude annually awards the prize for the best narrative book for young people in German, the Buxtehude Bulls . The prize was awarded annually from 1971 to 1980 by the bookstore Ziemann und Ziemann , and since 1981 by the city. The prize is currently endowed with € 5000. The jury is made up of equal numbers of young people (14-18 years of age) and adults.

In addition to this, the Buxtehude calf is awarded as a picture book prize.

Buxtehude cabaret hedgehog

The Cabaret Igel is an association that has committed itself to promoting cabaret in Buxtehude. The forerunner of the association was founded under the name “Das III. Program". In addition to the usual touring theaters and music performances, they wanted to bring a “third line” of art to the smaller Buxtehude stages. Today well-known artists such as Mathias Richling , Dieter Nuhr , Django Asül , Ina Müller or Georg Schramm also perform in Buxtehude through the cabaret . For these “big players in the industry”, Buxtehude's largest hall, the hall of the Halepaghen School (599 seats) is used. These appearances are usually sold out two to three days after ticket sales have opened. However, the cabaret hedgehog has remained true to its original goals and also promotes regional or as yet unknown artists. The performances take place in the Forum Süd (approx. 150 seats).

Cultural forum at the harbor

The culture forum at the Buxtehude harbor was opened in 2008 and is located in the converted side wing of the Buxtehude painting school. The monument was once the main building of the earthenware factory built in 1853 by the English entrepreneur William Dawson. This was built on the island that was raised in 1849 to improve the flow conditions. The factory closed its doors in 1861. The remains of an old kiln can be viewed through a pane of glass in the floor.

Concerts, cabaret, regular exhibitions, readings, workshops, theater and films are offered, whereby most of the program can be financed with entrance fees. The Kulturforum also rents its rooms for seminars to companies and for private events. In the expandable cinema and theater hall, the KIK (Kommunale Initiative Kino) shows children's cinema, film series, documentaries, short films and classics.

Freizeithaus Buxtehude

The municipal leisure center near the train station is operated by the Buxtehude municipal youth welfare organization. Concerts and flea markets are also held here. There is a bicycle self-help workshop, the café, the arena event room , the band rehearsal room, a creative workshop, offices and several seminar rooms.

Theater in the backyard

The theater in the backyard is a small, independent stage in the Altkloster district. Professional artists perform there. The soprano Nina Zober was the principal until her death (2010). Since then, a support association has ensured the continuation of the theater.

A royal night

The Royal Night is a musical and literary open air event on St. Petri Square in Buxtehude. The first performance was in 2005, after a redesign the second performance took place in 2006. It was a staged reading with Dagmar Berghoff , Wilhelm Wieben and Horst Niebuhr. The musical program was created in the first round by the Harburg trombone choir under Heinz Korupp and the Buxtehude youth orchestra under Christian Klett, and in the second edition the youth symphony orchestra of the Schwerin Conservatory under the direction of Matthias Lorenz . Royal Night refers to the British Queen Caroline Amalie Elisabeth (1768–1821). Her body was transferred to Braunschweig and laid out for one night in the St. Petri Church in Buxtehude. The historical spectacle is about Caroline as Princess of Wales - and the contemporary historical context, such as Buxtehude's affiliation to Imperial Napoleonic France during the continental blockade .

International Music Festival

In 2010 the Chinese pianist Zhang Hai'ou , the president of the Kulturforum am Hafen and a private entrepreneur founded the International Music Festival Buxtehude & Altes Land . The philosophy of the concert project is to present classical music by young, highly talented performers from home and abroad on several days once a year in Buxtehude.

Buxtinale film festival

City Marketing

In 2003 the city ​​marketing working group was founded with the motto: Buxtehude's way into the future . The aim of the activities was to strengthen Buxtehude as a medium-sized center in competition with the surrounding centers of Stade , Hamburg-Harburg and Lüneburg . The city ​​marketing association that emerged from the working group was dissolved in 2014. Since then, the tasks have been carried out by the Buxtehude city administration.

Bundeswehr barracks - re-use

Buxtehude was a garrison town until 1994 . In the Estetal barracks, in addition to the telecommunications battalion 3, the staff and the headquarters company of the 3rd Panzer Division were housed. Since the building technology of the barracks was outdated, the entire area of ​​the barracks had to be provided with new supply and disposal lines after the withdrawal of the Bundeswehr . In the course of the conversion , some of the historic apartment blocks were demolished and replaced by new buildings. The former staff building was technically refurbished and today houses a music school and a fitness studio in addition to many smaller offices. The adult education center moved into the former building of the telecommunications battalion. The building tract 10-14 was created by the association buxbau , funding of the University of Applied Sciences in Buxtehude e. V. converted by students into a student residence hall. The new private university 21 is gradually building up its studies here.

Hitradio Buxtehude logo

Event radio north (EFN)

In 2004, Eventfunk Nord started its program in Buxtehude and Stade (so-called "event radio ") on special occasions (e.g. old town festival). The broadcast studio was an old double-decker bus. The program was transmitted over four ISDN lines to the telecommunications tower in Buxtehude or Stade, where it was broadcast on the 106.0 MHz frequency (only in one city at a time). The initiator was Bodo Lorenzen from Buxtehude, who runs an event agency. He produced commercials for Buxtehude companies that were broadcast in the program. The transmission power was weak, and in the south and south-east of Buxtehude the program was difficult to receive (due to interference with the strong Dannenberg transmitter, Hitradio antenna on 106.1 MHz). However, the program was very well received from Dollern to Neu Wulmstorf. Originally, it was planned to cover costs through sponsorship from industry. Unfortunately, there was not enough support here, and the organizers for whom the concept was developed showed no interest in this modern medium. As a result, the program was discontinued at the end of 2004, as operations did not pay off. The Yagi antennas that adorned the Buxtehude telecommunications tower have been dismantled, and in Buxtehude you only receive radio programs that are broadcast outside the Stade district (main transmitter locations: Hamburg, Rosengarten-Langenrehm). The frequency 106.0 MHz with an output of 1 kW from the telecommunications tower on Buxtehuder Poststrasse is to be used in future for the Lower Saxony private broadcaster Radio 21 (Germany) . A corresponding decision by the state media authority NLM was issued in June 2012.
