history

The founding of Sinsworth is not known, allegedly it goes back to a farm named Memmenburg, which belonged to a chief named Hayo. This went to the county of Hoya . It is probably a legend. In 1560 the place appears for the first time in writing as "Synswarden" in the manpower register. The villages of Memmenburg, Hutzwarden, Hofwürden and Mundahn belonged to the farmers of Sinswürden. At Gutzwarden there was a ski jump with military importance around 1500 , it was still in use in 1514. The first school existed in Sinswürden from 1618 to 1685, after which the children attended school in Seeverns .

Count Anton Günther von Oldenburg founded a hospital / poor house for the Ovelgönne office in 1659 . This had a capacity of 24 people. In 1685 it was abandoned by the Danish government due to floods. The property ownership of the facility was combined with the Blankenburg monastery from 1706 . As a replacement, the Butjadinger received 24 free poor places in the Blankenburg monastery.

Mundahn

Mundahn was first mentioned in 1315. It is a group of houses between Eckwarderhörne and Tossens . Its name is borrowed from the town of Mundahn, which almost disappeared during the Christmas flood in 1717 . The first secondary school existed there in 1629, which was united with grand dignitaries in 1699. The village of Mundahn was partially closed in 1721, the rest followed in 1786.
