history
The village of Tespe is first mentioned in the Ratzeburg tithe register from 1230 as Toschope . Research assumes that Tespe was founded by Saxon settlers around the year 1000. The place name is based on the old Saxon basic word Hop "Haufe" and, like Wiershop, describes the place where something comes together. Like the village of Avendorf, the village was relocated to the Elbmarsch opposite , before the middle of the 14th century . The Tesperhude customs office was later built on the old parcel of the former village.
Since 1986 there has been an above-average number of children in Tespe with leukemia . These diseases are brought up in the press and also by some expert scientists in connection with the Krümmel nuclear power plant and the GKSS research center on the opposite side of the Elbe .
