Stapelholm (Danish: Stabelholm ) is the name of a cultural landscape in Schleswig-Holstein that lies between the rivers Eider , Treene and Sorge and owes its name to an elongated Geest island that rises south of the Treene from the moor and marsh lowland . Stapelholm is located in the Schleswig-Flensburg district and in the North Friesland district in the Eider-Treene lowlands . The area of ​​the municipal political administrative unit Amt Stapelholm , which became part of the Amt Kropp-Stapelholm in 2008, is not congruent with that of the historical cultural landscape, which extends right up to Friedrichstadt . Historically, Stapelholm was a Danish administrative unit (landscape) that belonged to the higher-level administrative unit Fræzlæt . Stapelholm ( Stapeleholm ) is mentioned in 1260 in the Waldemar-Erdbuch .

Etymology and geography

The first part of the name, stacks , originally meant post , block , support and has two meanings, stacking place / landing place and court pillar / court location Norderstapel and Süderstapel were important transshipment points on Stapelholmer Weg . But there was also a high court in Süderstapel .

The second part of the name Holm results from the geographic location of the Geest landscape in the marshes and moors of the river lowlands. Before the drainage measures taken by Dutch Remonstrants from the 16th century onwards, these lowlands were covered by the Stapelsee lakes , and geest areas protruded from them as islands. Villages that are southeast of the actual Stapelholm on Geestinseln also have the suffix, such as Friedrichsholm and Christiansholm .

Stapelholm is bounded in the north and northwest by the Treene, in the east by the original course of the Sorge, of which the Alte Sorge has been preserved as residual water , in the south by the Eider and in the west it tapers towards Friedrichstadt, where the Treene in the Eider is headed. The lowlands lie below sea ​​level , the highest points in the region are the Twieberge (High German: two mountains) near Norderstapel, the highest point there is 28.8 meters above sea ​​level .

The elongated, partly wooded Geestinsel begins in the northeast near Wohlde , continues via Bergenhusen to Norderstapel (on the Treene side) and Süderstapel (on the Eider side) and ends at Seeth and Drage in the march near Friedrichstadt. The localities Erfde (located on a separate Geest island) and Tielen also belong to the cultural landscape . Meggerdorf , which belonged to the former Stapelholm office, is east of Alten Sorge and therefore not in the historical cultural landscape of Stapelholm.
