Schulenburg is a district of the city of Langenhagen in the Hanover region of Lower Saxony .

geography

Schulenburg is located southwest of Hanover-Langenhagen Airport in parts directly on the runway; the northern runway runs across the district. The neighboring town to the east is Godshorn , to the south the Hanoverian district of Nordhafen and to the west Engelbostel .

The place is divided between the Kananohe nature reserve in the north and the Schulenburg industrial park in the south of the municipality in Schulenburg-Nord, Schulenburg-Mitte and, separated by the A 352 federal motorway , Schulenburg-Süd. The connection between Schulenburg and Schulenburg-Nord was interrupted in the 1950s by the construction of the southern runway at Hannover-Langenhagen Airport ; since then, Schulenburg-Nord has been connected via Engelbostel . Due to the development of a large new building area on Dorfstraße, the landscape joint closes to the west of Engelbostel. Schulenburg-Mitte and Engelbostel are effectively growing together.

The future of Schulenburg-Nord is uncertain. This smallest part of the village with only 50 inhabitants is located between the runways. The airport is buying up individual properties; the demolition of houses has started. It is expected that Schulenburg-Nord will have to give way to the airport's expansion plans in the medium term. To the west of the airport, a nine-hectare industrial area Airport-West is being built on the Schulenburg arable land , which will be accessed from the east through a tunnel under the airport site and thus not via Schulenburg.

history

The name Schulenburg developed from "Schulenborch", which, when the forest was cleared around 1200, had a meaning in the sense of "to the mountain place (hiding place)".

Schulenburg was first mentioned in a document in 1308. The 700th anniversary of the place was in 2008 a. a. honored with a knight festival. The War of the Succession of Lüneburg brought Schulenburg into the administration of the Vogtei Lauenrode in 1371. A tax list from 1585 shows eight farmers who lived in Schulenburg.

Incorporations

For the regional reform in Lower Saxony , Schulenburg was incorporated into the city of Langenhagen on March 1, 1974.

coat of arms

The Schulenburg municipal coat of arms was designed by the heraldist and graphic artist Alfred Brecht , who designed all the coats of arms in the Hanover region. The approval of the coat of arms was granted on February 15, 1962 by the district president in Hanover.

Schulenburg coat of arms
Blazon : Red  : gold divided , above a striding, looking, blue - armored , golden lion ( leopard ), below growing outof the base of the shield a hollowed, green trunk with dead branches on the right and left, each accompanied by a green acorn . "
Justification of the coat of arms: The golden lion (leopard) on a red background symbolizes the centuries-long supremacy of the Guelph princes since the early days; the hollow trunk is supposed to symbolize the place name "hiding place" and at the same time the cleared forest here. The local history and the interpreted place name alone offered essential support for the design of the municipal coat of arms.

In Schulenburg-Nord there is one of the well-known Langenhagener planespotter places, directly on the north runway, where landing aircraft pass in the immediate vicinity.
