The Heudeber-Danstedt – Bad Harzburg / Vienenburg railway runs directly south of the estate .

history

The place name Wennerode , mentioned for the first time in the 11th century, can refer to the Wends (Slavs) as well as the striking border location on the edge of the diocese of Hildesheim and earlier ruled areas. In the immediate vicinity there is an etymologically similar desert called Wenderode between Vienenburg and Harlingerode .

After the Second World War, Wennerode was part of the Vienenburg domain. The hamlet was in an extremely isolated position due to the cordoning off of the inner-German border; the way to Lüttgenrode was blocked and the field mark was completely cut off in the north, east and south. The field mark, which is about one kilometer wide and two kilometers long, penetrated the state territory like a spike from the GDR perspective.

The conversion to a public manor was made from the 1960s.

Wennerode belonged to the city of Vienenburg. On January 1, 2014, the cities of Vienenburg and Goslar were united by integrating the city of Vienenburg into the city of Goslar. The city of Vienenburg was dissolved and its six former districts have since formed districts of the city of Goslar.

coat of arms

The design of the municipal coat of arms of Wennerode comes from the graphic artist and heraldist Philipp Schmidt , who designed all the coats of arms in the Goslar district.

Blazon : "In Green a gespickelter red beams (barbed wire; 3: 4), diagonally left the field by pulling, jumping darüberhin a silver horse ."

Justification of the coat of arms: Wennerode only got a coat of arms after Vienenburg was enlarged on July 1, 1972. When the city administration of Vienenburg decorated the town hall with enamelled coats of arms of all districts, it was noticed that u. a. Wennerode did not yet have a coat of arms. So they thought up some for them and placed them next to those of the districts that had been carrying coats of arms for a long time. Barbed wire was chosen for Wennerode, which marked the location of the district close to the former GDR zone border. The horse jumping beyond this refers to the residential area "Weißes Ross" with its own post office.
