Schwiederstorf ^{? / i} (Swiersdbod inLow German ) is part of theNeu Wulmstorf communityinthe Harburg districtin northeastLower Saxonyin theHamburg metropolitan region. The population of Schwiederstorf amounts to approx. 922 people.

The small, actually nameless "Schwiederstorf settlement" is located about one kilometer east of the village in the Harburg Forest ( Harburg Mountains ). Although the distance is negligible, one has the impression that there are two districts, such as B. Neu-Wulmstorf-Tempelberg. A little further south-east lies the Karlstein natural monument in the Harburg mountains.

Together with Elstorf , Schwiederstorf forms roughly the geographical center of the municipality of Neu Wulmstorf. The agricultural character of Schwiederstorf has declined sharply in the last few decades and therefore today offers many new residents a new home in a green and scenic location with convenient transport links.

Painting of the large stone grave in Elstorf by Jacob Gensler , 1839

Traces of the Neolithic beaker culture , such as the Elstorf large stone grave located 2 km to the east or the Daerstorf large stone grave, prove that the area was settled earlier.

During the French period , Schwiederstorf had 124 inhabitants and belonged to the Département des Bouches de l'Elbe . On December 1, 1910 Schwiederstorf had 163 inhabitants.

Elstorf and Schwiederstorf were taken shortly before the end of the war on April 20, 1945 by the "A-Company" of the infantry unit "1st Rifle Brigade" and the "8th King's Royal Irish Hussars" of the English troops.

Incorporation

On July 1, 1972, the formerly independent communities Schwiederstorf, Elstorf, Rade and Rübke were incorporated after Daerstorf had already joined the community of Neu Wulmstorf in 1970.
