history

The village of Seethen was first mentioned as Sethen in 1380 , when Schulte, a citizen of Gardelegen, prescribed lifts from the mill for life to his daughter, a nun in Neuendorf Monastery . Further mentions are: 1418 Zeten , 1457 Sethen and 1498 Seten . The Urmes table sheet from 1843 shows that the original cul-de-sac village was expanded into a street village. At the beginning of the 20th century there was still a windmill on the Hörsterberg. Today there is a stable there.

In the mid-1906s, building sand was mined on the Hörsterberg. The dismantling did not start again until 1988, when urn graves were destroyed. The excavations in 1900 and 1991 allowed the salvage of a stone circle complex with 74 urn complexes from the younger Bronze Age .
