About this picture

Verden (Aller) [ ˈfeːɐ̯dn̩ ] ( Low German Veern ) is the district town of the Verden district in Lower Saxony and an independent municipality . The city is located in the Central Weser region on the Aller just before it flows into the Weser . As the center of horse breeding and equestrian sport, it is known as the equestrian town . The addition “Aller” became common at a time when the name “Verden” was also common in German-speaking countries for the French city of Verdun . The city name comes from "Furt" or "Fähre". The city was conveniently located on a ford through the Aller, near an important trade route.

history

1000 years of market and coinage law in Verden: Postage stamp from 1985

Until the early Iron Age , traces of human settlement can be found in the cityscape .

Middle Ages and Early Modern Times

Ferdi in Saxonia , under this name Verden is mentioned for the first time in a document of Charlemagne in its present-day form. The name suggests ford or ferry. In 782, the submission of the Saxons by Charlemagne during the Saxon Wars reached a cruel climax in the Verden area : Allegedly 4500 residents of the then sparsely populated region were executed in the so-called " Verden Blood Court" after they had refused to submit to the Frankish King Karl and to embrace the Christian faith. Around 850 the diocese of Verden was established, which perished as an ecclesiastical diocese during the Reformation . In the following centuries, the city grew out of two settlement cores: the northern city with the town hall and Johanniskirche and the southern city with the spiritual center around the cathedral, to which the fishing settlement on the Aller was affiliated. The Nikolaikirche on Sandberg also existed. Outside the place existed in the time of 10/11. Century on a hill on the Aller the old castle Verden as a hill fort . From the 11th century to 1648 the prince-bishopric of Verden existed as an independent territory, in which the Verden bishops and their Lutheran legal successors ruled as imperial princes . On March 12, 1259, Verden was granted city charter under the law of Bremen by episcopal privilege . In 1476, Berthold II von Landsberg founded the Mariengarten Benedictine monastery "our leven Frouven Rosengarten" in the northern part of the city, in whose rooms Franz Wilhelm von Wartenberg had the Jesuits move in in 1630, so that the nuns had to move into the Frankenberg monastery . In the 15th century Verden became a free imperial city until the end of the Thirty Years War . In 1568 the Reformation was introduced in the “Stifte Verden” by the sovereign and Protestant bishop Eberhard von Holle (born in 1531 in Uchte).

Witch hunt

From 1517 to 1683 witch hunts took place in Verden . 80 women and nine men got into witch trials , 26 women and six men were burned. Margarethe Sievers, 15 years old, daughter of a stone mason, presumably nervous, reported by her own parents, was beheaded in 1618. Six women died under torture and five in custody. In 1606, 16 processes were noted: escape, process outcome unknown. Heinrich Rimphoff , from 1642 superintendent of the diocese of Verden , was responsible for the resumption of the persecution of witches in the diocese of Verden. Together with the Verden cathedral chapter , the magistrate and the law faculty of the University of Rinteln , he was the driving force in a witch trial in 1647, which ended in death for several women.

The witch trial against Catharine Wolpmann was the trigger for the ban of witch trials in 1649 in the Swedish kingdom , to which Verden an der Aller belonged at that time, by Queen Christina .

Belonging to Sweden and Hanover, Napoleonic period

As a result of the Peace of Westphalia , the Diocese of Verden fell to the Swedish crown as an imperial fief. In 1667 the north and south cities were forcibly united by the Swedish crown. During the Swedish-Brandenburg War in 1675 Verden was conquered in a campaign by several states of the Holy Roman Empire and Denmark and remained in Allied possession until the end of the war in 1679. In the course of the Peace of Saint-Germain in 1679 Verden fell back to Sweden. After a short period of Danish rule, Verden came to the Electorate of Braunschweig-Lüneburg in 1719 , which was colloquially known as Kurhannover . From 1765 to 1805 the city was garrison of the 5th Kurhannoverschen Cavalry Regiment . From March to December 1810 Verden was the district capital in the department of the Elbe and Weser estuaries , part of the Kingdom of Westphalia . Then it was annexed by the French Empire and was part of the Weser estuary department until the end of 1813 . In 1814 Verden came back to Kurhannover, which rose to become the Kingdom of Hanover at the Congress of Vienna , and took on the Hussar Guard Regiment as a garrison.

Prussia and the German Empire

After the German War lost by Hanover , Verden, like the entire Kingdom of Hanover, was annexed to Prussia as a province . From 1873 the House of Hohenzollern and thus the German Emperor also carried the title of Prince of Verden . Until the First World War , trade and handicraft as well as numerous local and regional authorities and offices and the garrison (first cavalry, then artillery - Uhlan Regiment No. 14 , Field Artillery Regiment No. 26 ) determined the development of Verden.

Weimar Republic and the time of National Socialism

During the last four Reichstag elections, the NSDAP recorded consistently higher proportions of votes in the old district of Verden than in the constituency of East Hanover , to which Verden belonged. Compared to the Weimar Republic, this constituency, in turn, had a higher share of the votes for the NSDAP:

Percentage of votes for the NSDAP
Reichstag election from Verden district East Hanover constituency Weimar Republic
September 1930 20.6% 20.6% 18.3%
July 1932 54.7% 49.5% 37.3%
November 1932 44.4% 42.9% 33.1%
March 1933 56.5% 54.3% 43.9%

The Wehrmacht housed front and replacement troops in the barracks, some of which are still preserved today, as well as command authorities or offices and other facilities of Military District X elsewhere . From November 1943, Verden was the formal seat of a special looting court . With the furniture factory Wöhler , the gas works and individual craft businesses (" social work "), there were companies in the city of Verden that used civilian forced laborers. Furthermore, the Neuengamme concentration camp operated a satellite camp in Verden from January to April 1945, in which eight concentration camp prisoners had to work for the Verden SS construction management in the expansion of a training facility for the Schutzstaffel (SS) in Sachsenhain . The city was largely spared from fighting.

post war period

At the beginning of the 1950s, the Socialist Reich Party was the strongest faction in Verden. From 1945 to 1993 Verden was the garrison town of the British Army of the Rhine , including the British 7th Panzer Division . Many expellees from Silesia , East Prussia , Pomerania , Czechoslovakia and Bessarabia settled in the urban area . There were also guest workers from southern Europe and Anatolia in the 1960s. In 1985 the city celebrated the 1000th anniversary of its own market , coin , customs and ban rights . After 1990, many immigrants from Eastern Europe came to Verden, where living space had become free, not least as a result of the withdrawal of British troops.

The old town of Verden is located on the east bank of the Aller, mostly on slightly hilly terrain. It is divided into the Norderstadt around the Norderstädtischer Marktplatz and the Rathausplatz, the cathedral district in the south around the Lugenstein square and the park-like cathedral cemetery , the fishing district below the cathedral district and the Sandberg southeast of the Norderstadt. The pedestrian zone mainly consists of the Große Straße and stretches between the Norderstädtischer Marktplatz and the Lugenstein. It has numerous half-timbered houses.

At the foot of the Geest there is an industrial park to the northwest. To the left of the Aller there is little urban development, but the incorporated villages are increasingly growing into suburban settlements.

Buildings

Church buildings

  • Verden Cathedral , Gothic three-aisled hall church from the 13th and 15th centuries with a Romanesque brick tower from the middle of the 12th century, perhaps the oldest in Northern Germany.
  • St. Andrew's Church , late Romanesque brick building, built around 1200, in which the grave slab of Bishop Yso is kept
  • St. John's Church . Basically built around 1150, it is one of the oldest brick churches in northern Germany. The Gothic aisles were added in the 14th century. The Romanesque tower was given a baroque dome in 1697.
  • Catholic provost Church of Saint Joseph , neo-Romanesque three-aisled basilica of brick from 1894, according to plans by Richard Herzig
  • Evangelical Lutheran Zion Church of the SELK from 1938, brick building based on a design by the Berlin architect Richard Oertwig (1908–1944)
  • Former Nikolaikirche on the Sandberg . Mentioned as a chapel in 1254, completed in 1263. Gothic church rebuilt in the 14th century; it last served as a garrison church until 1810. Profaned in 1814, it was converted into a brewery. The tower was demolished in 1834, the nave vaults in 1850 and the choir and the aisle vaults in 1906. After the brewery was closed, the church, which had now been expanded to three floors, was used differently. It is currently empty.

Secular buildings

  • Half-timbered house Strukturstrasse 7 , arable citizen house from 1577.
  • Old Gothic defensive tower on Piepenbrink made of brick; the last remaining tower of the city fortifications, which were largely removed in 1838.

The new brickwork can be seen in the pointed arch on the city side, which occupies almost the entire height of the building.
  • Syndikatshof on Norderstädtischer Markt
  • Canon House , Domstrasse 18

Franz Goldmann died on May 11, 1818 at the young age of only 20 as a result of a hunting accident in Rieda near Verden. His father, the bailiff and tenant of Förste am Harz, Christoph Goldmann, kept his son's memory alive through a legacy for which he donated 1000 Thaler. On May 11th every year, a "good and virtuous girl" should receive 30 thalers if she married on the same day and had decorated Franz Goldmann's grave with flowers the day before and prayed there.

traffic

Railway bridge new construction (2015)
Passenger ship at Verden pier

The station Verden linked in the network of Deutsche Bahn the Bremen-Hanover railway with the Rotenburg (Wümme) . It is a stop for Intercity, Regional Express, Regionalbahn and (occasionally) ICE trains. Verden has been part of the regional S-Bahn network in Bremen / Lower Saxony since mid-December 2011 .

The railway bridge over the Aller has been a new building since 2016, replacing the previous building, with a total length of 380 meters. Verden is the seat of the Verden-Walsroder Railway (VWE), the main line of which is divided into a 12.5 km long railway line from Verden to Stemmen and another from Böhme to Walsrode . For decades now, only goods traffic and occasional museum railroad traffic have taken place on the VWE routes . Among other things, the Mars plant is connected to the rail network via VWE . In addition, the city has some local and regional bus routes . Verden is part of the Bremen-Lower Saxony transport association. Inner-city traffic and bus traffic to Kirchlinteln is supplied by the Verdener Verkehrsgesellschaft ( VVG , subsidiary of VWE), while most regional connections are served by buses from the Verden-Walsroder Railway, and occasionally also from the Weser-Ems Bus ( WEB ).

Verden is on the federal highway 27 Cuxhaven-Bremen-Walsrode, on the federal highway 215 Rotenburg (Wümme) -Nienburg / Weser-Minden and on the state roads 171 Verden - Visselhövede - Schneverdingen and 203 towards Thedinghausen. In the architecture museum of the Technical University of Berlin there are three photos that document the construction of the “Allerbrücke near Verden”.

In Verden-Scharnhorst is located airfield Verden-Scharnhorst (an airfield ICAO : EDWV code) kg for machines to 2000 MTOW . The core city is located directly on the Aller, which is passable for inland navigation (only extremely little sport boat and excursion boat traffic; there are sometimes many canoeists, kayakers and rowers), which flows into the Weser in the north of the urban area (district Eissel near Dauelsen) . The Weser is also used for commercial inland shipping. The excursion boat occasionally goes to Intschede and Bremen. The location on two rivers regularly leads to floods at the end of winter. Most of the time, state road 203 (Verden-Blender) and the district road between Eissel and Verden and Eissel and Langwedel are closed due to flooding. Eissel can then only be reached temporarily by boat, drivers from the direction of Blender have to take kilometer-wide detours via Hoya (Nienburg district) or Achim.
