history

Surname

The Wardamm was named after the small village of Ware (Ware = fish weir ), first mentioned in 1201 and several times after 1290; it existed until 1400. Due to the marshland, the place could only be reached by a dam.

development

The area on the left side of Ochtum became the Warfeld . In 1290 three to four houses were named in a document in the village of Ware . The road was the trade route from Bremen to Delmenhorst and Oldenburg and it was probably the oldest road connection from Bremen to Huchting. In 1311, the Counts of Delmenhorst and the City Council of Bremen agreed to prepare and maintain this strata communis for pedestrians and wagons, the Counts of Delmenhorst to Huchting and the city of Huchting to Bremen. In 1390 the Landwehr was strengthened here and the Torn to de Warebrughen was built.

In 1523 the road was paved, which was later called Wahrdamm and then Wardamm . Until the construction of Huchtinger Heerstraße in 1867, the street was still the old post route from Bremen to Oldenburg. During the floods in Bremen in December 1954 and the storm surge in 1962 , the area by the street was flooded and the residents had to be evacuated.

Grolland was mentioned for the first time in 1189 and belonged to the county or duchy of Oldenburg until 1803 and then to the Goh Obervieland . In 1870 Grolland became part of the Bremen rural community of Huchting. In 1946 Huchting was incorporated with the Grolland district.
