Woltmershausen's few houses were burned down by order of the Bremen council in 1666 in order to maintain a clear field of fire against the advancing Swedes. The village had around 300 inhabitants in the 18th century. In the 19th century, shipbuilding was carried out on the left bank of the Weser , and sawmills and planing mills were located there. Shops, inns and businesses were now developing on Woltmershauser Strasse.
