geology

The salt dome at Waddekath begins at a depth of around 400 meters. It extends in an oval shape east from Waddekath to Neuekrug . It was explored by drilling in the course of the natural gas exploration in the 20th century, but was not used economically. The salt dome was examined as a possible nuclear waste repository in the BGR salt study as early as 1995 and is also being considered in current studies.

history

The original round square village was later expanded to the northeast.

The place Waddekath was first mentioned in 1112 as Walenkote . The Hamersleben monastery owned 10 farms there. Watekoten was mentioned in 1160 when Bishop Hermann von Verden confirmed a donation from Count von Wertbeck over seven villages to the Diesdorf monastery . In 1178 the place was called Wadencote .

In 1946, 489 hectares were expropriated in the course of the land reform , of which 411 hectares were divided among 74 settlers. In 1952 the first agricultural production cooperative, the LPG "Unity and Peace", was founded, which was initially of type I and shortly afterwards of type III.

The border to neighboring Rade was finally opened on February 17, 1990 after the fall of the Wall .

The five or six large stone graves at Waddekath were already destroyed in the 19th century.
