history

Stöckheim is one of the oldest places in the Northeim district . The village was founded in Carolingian times. The first documentary mention is in the Traditiones Corbeienses from the time between 826 and 876 AD, the place name is written there Stocchem . However, only a 15th-century copy of the document has survived. In the next most recent document by Stocheim from 1142, a mother church is already mentioned as part of a donation to the Fredelsloh monastery . A document from 1141, sometimes listed as the first mention, is doubted by some researchers in its assignment to Stöckheim. One of 12 so-called “mother churches” in the area of ​​today's southern Lower Saxony was founded here in the ninth century by the Archdiocese of Mainz . The land and church in Stöckheim belonged to the Knights Templar. After its abolition in 1312, the goods were divided. Some of the goods fell to the Fredelsloh monastery, as did the right to appoint the pastor in Stöckheim, which it retained until 1542. In 1589 Stöckheim received a school to which the residents of the parish of Stöckheim could send "otherwise their children, both boys and girls".

On March 1, 1974, Stöckheim, which until then belonged to the district of Einbeck , was incorporated into the city of Northeim.

Culture and sights

church

Ev.-luth. St. Martin Church

The original church building was demolished in the middle of the 18th century while retaining the baptismal font and replaced by a new baroque building in 1763 . This has been renovated several times. In 2017 the organ built by Carl Giesecke was redesigned. The font is made of sandstone and was donated in 1614. Its bowl is 8-sided and, like the foot, is decorated with 4 putti and ornaments. In addition, an inscription names the year of the foundation and the names of the donors, a Hans Lüdemann, probably related to Veit Lüdemann, who was notarized as bailiff of the Rotenkirchen office in 1626, and Ilsebe Schwartzkopf, apparently from the Schwartzkoppen family according to the family coat of arms incorporated below . Grapes of grapes are depicted under the putti as Eucharistic figures. On the west side the church was furnished with the former altarpiece of the Hollenstedter chapel, which was demolished in 1970. The altar wall on the north side of the church shows depictions of the evangelists .

The parish of Stöckheim in the parish of Leine-Solling still includes the villages of Hollenstedt , Drüber and Sülbeck .

Kemnate

In 1322, a settlement or estate is named for the first time with Wetsen , which can be seen as the forerunner of Wetze. In 1411 it was then referred to as a village, and in 1556 it finally functions as a Vorwerk . Until the mid-16th century, is for the district Stöckheimer Wetze Kemenate testified. In 1524 Heinrich IV. Von Braunschweig-Grubenhagen transferred the building with the huse efte borchgesethe Wetze and all accessories to his wife Elisabeth as body breeding . The Duchess had previously released the same property from the former pledgeeers Hans and Hermann von Minnigerode . The castle seat in Wetze probably existed since the Middle Ages and was originally owned by the Lords of Wettese, who are mentioned in a document until 1341.

Economy and Infrastructure

The subsidiary of Einbecker KWS Saat SE forms an important branch of industry ; it has a branch in the Wetze locality of Stöckheim. There is a carpentry shop in Stöckheim itself. The former boys 'and girls' school, established in 1589 as a Latin school for the Rotenkirchen and Salzderhelden offices , no longer exists. The students are taught today in Northeim or Edesheim .
