geography

Stemmen is located in the Calenberger Land immediately west of the Stemmer Berg . The B 65 runs through the village in its section Nordgoltern - Göxe , which connects the village to the west with the A 2 (junction Bad Nenndorf ) and to the east leads to the nearby city of Hanover . Neighboring towns are Barrigsen in the north-west , Lathwehren in the north-east, Göxe in the east, Eckerde in the south, Großgoltern in the south-west and Nordgoltern in the west-south- west. The Südaue flows past the village to the southwest .

history

Stemmen was close to the medieval trade route that connected Hildesheim and Braunschweig with the cities of Westphalia and whose course largely corresponds to that of today's B 65.

In the files of the Minden cathedral chapter there is a note about the request of the Calenberg land rent master Christoph Blume for a lease discount for Stemmen in the years 1650 to 1658 due to reduced grain due to the wet weather. The cornflower in the Stemmer coat of arms still reminds of this today.

According to records in the Stemmen church register from 1746, Pastor Schmersahl in Stemmen cultivated the first potatoes in the Hanover region. A memorial stone opposite the local church commemorates this “potato pastor”.

On July 1, 1968, Stemmen merged with the communities of Eckerde , Göxe , Großgoltern and Nordgoltern to form the community of Goltern . On March 1, 1974 the incorporation of golfers into the town of Barsinghausen followed.

coat of arms

The draft emblem of Stemmen comes from the in Gadenstedt born and later in Hannover living heraldic and graphic artist Alfred Brecht , who has the coat of arms of Aligse , Bantorf , Barrigsen has designed and many other villages in the district of Hannover. The approval of the coat of arms was granted on January 13, 1964 by the district president in Hanover.

Blazon : " Red : silver split , in front two blue-armored and −tongued , golden leopards at the gap, behind over a red ploughshare a red cornflower with a golden seed core."

Justification of the coat of arms: The coat of arms of Stemmen contains the state colors, which were once the colors of the diocese of Minden and the counts of Schaumburg . The Guelph leopards indicated that the dukes had ruled for several centuries, the cornflower honored the memory of the land rent master Christoph Blume, who donated the church in the village and thus created a permanent monument, and the ploughshare symbolized the village that is still rural today .

Culture and sights

The rural townscape of Stemmen is largely determined by the Stemmen manor , whose current owner is Jahn Friedrich Freiherr von Rössing. The church forms the center of the village. In 1996, Stemmen was awarded the title “Most Beautiful Village” in the Hanover district .
