Wedesbüttel , together with the Martinsbüttel settlement, is a district of Meine in eastern Lower Saxony and has around 550 inhabitants.

geography

location

The town of Wedesbüttel is located in the eastern part of the slightly undulating diluvial geest plateau of the Papenteich and here especially the "Meiner Lehmplatte". The district is divided into a larger eastern and a smaller northern area by the Mittelland Canal . The village of Wedesbüttel is located east of the Mittelland Canal on the eastern terrace of the former Hehlenriede (height: 73-77 m NN), in the north of the district lies the Gut Martinsbüttel on the eastern slope of the uppermost Hehlenriede (height: 76-73 m NN).

Local division

Wedesbüttel consists of the two settlement areas Wedesbüttel and Martinsbüttel. The old village of Martinsbüttel fell into desolation in the late Middle Ages, and the lands were assigned to the estate in Wedesbüttel. In 1863 the seat of the estate was relocated from Wedesbüttel to Martinsbüttel.

Neighboring communities

The neighboring communities or places clockwise are: Wasbüttel in the north, Edesbüttel , Allenbüttel , Brunsbüttel , Essenrode , Grassel in the south, Abbesbüttel , Meine , Wedelheine in the west, Ohnhorst .

geology

In relation to the deeper subsoil, Wedesbüttel lies in the area of ​​a north-south, Rhenish strike , which occurs in front of the subhercynian hill country . Between Bechtsbüttel - Abbesbüttel - Wedesbüttel there seems to be a tectonic fault zone between the Chalk in the west and the Jura in the east. Since there are also other geological phenomena that otherwise occur in the vicinity of salt domes, a corresponding connection was assumed. However, measurements at Wedesbüttel with the Eötvös'sche rotary balance did not provide any evidence of a salt dome in 1926.

On the surface, the area around Wedesbüttel is geologically shaped by the Pleistocene . Although the Jura is still pending in the east near Hondelage and Essenrode and the younger Upper Cretaceous emerges in the west near Vordorf and Meine , the area was formed in the Ice Age. The glacial marl plain of the Papenteich runs through a uniform "strip" of sand and gravel between Abbesbüttel and Wedesbüttel towards Wasbüttel and thus follows the course of the former Hehlenriede ; this zone is also known geologically as the "Abbesbütteler Senke" or "Abbesbütteler Tal". As boreholes during the planning of the Mittelland Canal showed, it is laterally interlocked with the glacial till and represents the characteristics of a typical glacial channel with a depth of more than 20 m in the till. The above very fine-grained, below somewhat coarser sands of this channel form a Uniform groundwater storey, the surface of which at Abbesbüttel is around 74 m above sea level and which, with a gradient in a north-easterly direction, is around 70 m above sea level at Wedesbüttel and Wedelheine. The groundwater has a noticeable amount of aggressive carbonic acid. In 1959 the Wedelheine waterworks went into operation, which pumps this groundwater. The catchment area for this groundwater resource is the Geest of the Papenteich in the west and the upper part of the Pleistocene channel in the south-southwest. The extremely powerful and almost pure glacial till on the eastern edge of the channel prevents any major inflow of groundwater from this direction. Areas around Wedesbüttel and west of Martinsbüttel are part of the water protection area. Holocene dunes are sporadic or existed in the Papenteich landscape, but not detectable for Wedesbüttel despite the Old Pleistocene channel. In modern times, the surface of the terrain has been greatly changed by humans, especially through cuts and tilts during the construction of the Mittelland Canal .

Gley soils , especially pseudogleye and locally parabrown earth pseudogleye, predominate. The gleye in the brook valleys are based on the alternating and superimposing of fine-sand clays and clayey coarse sands.

climate

The place lies in the transition area between Atlantic and continental air masses and accordingly two types of climate. The annual mean westerly and southwest winds, especially from November to January and from June to August, represent a climate with a maritime impact. For February through April, the humid continental climate often delivers easterly and southeast winds. Precipitation occurs throughout the year, with a maximum of around 71 mm in June and around 37 mm in the driest month of February with annual precipitation of around 620 mm. The annual average temperature is 8.8 ° C, with July being the warmest month at 17.5 ° C and January being the coldest month at around 0.2 ° C. The climate classification according to Köppen and Geiger is accordingly: " Sea climate " Cfb.

history

The place was first mentioned in 1022 in a document from King Heinrich II . As a -büttel -dorf it was probably founded during the inland colonization in the Papenteich in the 10th century. The name consists of the two parts of a male given name and the ending "büttel" in the general meaning for settlement.

The village grew very little as a farming village, in 1489 there were 6 half-farms (as buhove = farms) and 3 Kötner, in 1678 6 farms and 7 Kötner were registered, also in 1777. Only after the Second World War did the number of residential buildings and residents increase. Until the dissolution of the manor in the 19th century (1841), the farms had various landlords.

On the northwest edge of the original village was an estate that belonged to the von Campe family. The estate seems to have come into being relatively late, as the medieval documents never mention a privileged farm in Wedesbüttel and the farm's area was not particularly large. On the other hand, there are indications of a special fortification and system for crossing the damp valley of the Hehlenriede at this point.

With the extinction of the von Campe family line belonging to Wedesbüttel, the estate with its lands as well as the manorial courts belonging to the village were transferred to Thomas Grote (1594–1657) as a lordly fief in 1639 . In 1656 Thomas Grote also bought the fiefdom of Martinsbüttel and then finally replaced Campe as liege lord.

The alternative name and the spelling of the place name Wedesbüttel as "Wäsebüddel" clarifies the pronunciation in the dialect of the Papenteich Platt . The long e is pronounced as long ä and the consonant duplication tt as dd.

Incorporations

Wedesbüttel was an independent village until 1970. Part of Wedesbüttel was Martinsbüttel, which was likely to have become desolate in the 15th century, the area of ​​which then became part of the district of Wedesbüttel. With the Lower Saxony regional and community reform in 1970, the village became part of the community of Meine , which in turn became a member of the joint municipality of Papenteich .

Population development

The district currently has around 550 inhabitants

religion

When it was founded, the place was part of the Roman Catholic diocese of Halberstadt under canon law . The Reformation brought under Duke Ernst the Confessor already in 1527 the priority for the Lutheran faith. With the end of the Second World War, changes began. Since there is no obligation to register, the known religious communities are listed as representatives: Evangelical Lutheran parish of St. Stephani, Meine; St. Andreas (Meine) as part of the Catholic parish St. Altfrid Gifhorn / Meine ; Free Evangelical Bible Congregation Mine.

politics

coat of arms

The place does not have its own coat of arms, but symbols of this place have been incorporated into the coat of arms of the municipality of Meine : The jumping black horse comes from the coat of arms of the Wedesbüttel lord of Grote .

Local partnerships

The place has no official or official local or town twinning of its own. A special kind of partnership exists with the neighboring town of Wedelheine . Already in the 19th century there was a common choral society (1871), the cemetery in Wedelheine was (until the establishment of an own cemetery in Wedesbüttel) compulsory burial place for the inhabitants of Wedesbüttel, in the elementary school ("Volksschule") in Wedesbüttel were also the children from Wedelheine have to go to school. With the construction of the Mittelland Canal , a small, special bridge was built for the residents of the two villages: a narrow bridge only permitted for pedestrians (it was replaced by a much narrower bridge in 1973 due to the canal expansion ). Rifle and sports club as well as the volunteer fire brigade span both villages. The kindergarten "Villa Kunterbunt" in Wedesbüttel is accessible to children from all villages.

  14. The topographical record in the original map from 1901 shows an artificial embankment opposite the estate on the western slope and a clear extension of the height line 71.25 m across the slope on the eastern slope of the uppermost Hehlenriede (original map). Both contradict a natural structure or condition of the valley or the depression of a flowing water and indicate deliberate change e.g. B. for a safer and possibly controllable crossing of a damp lowland. In 1931 the triangular complex, which was then still open to the east and surrounded by a moat, on which the lord's residence was located, is referred to as the "Burgstelle" and the moat as the "former moat" (Kiecker and Lütgens 1931). Contemporary witnesses (e.g. Erich Köstel, Willi Ahrens, Heinrich Bosse) reported about massive oak timbers that had to be removed at this point during the construction of the Mittelland Canal in the 1920s, and construction workers reported about hard oak planks that were an obstacle to the widening of the MLK in the 1970s prevented the ramming of the bank steel walls by deepening, so that the steels could not be completely rammed and the protruding material had to be welded off.
