History

1091, the village was first mentioned. Gerhard II of Stumpenhusen was once supposed to cede seven farmsteads and eight serfs in Asendorf and four other farmsteads in Uepsen to the Church. He was allegedly occupied by the princes of the church with a curse and has cheated on her, because he yielded only four farmsteads from Asendorf and two from Uepsen. Because of the fraud and the Schuldens of farmsteads and serfs him the Church has made ​​in the process Achim. It was chaired by the highest ecclesiastical prince of the region, Archbishop Liemar of Bremen and there were many other nobles present, such as Duke Magnus ( persecuted and put Gerhard von Stumpenhusen ), Mark Graf Udo, Count Friedrich Vogt of the Church, Count Lambert of Westfala, Thieoderich the Sveve, Brother Marcellinus, Folcbert and knights of Count Heinrich von Hamburg, Reinhold and Heriman of Imina and the brothers of Gerhard, Margrave Gerbert and to more Free in the wake together more than 300

Asendorf was at the time already a Kerkspeel with the presbyter Lambertus, so the church as a building must already have existed at that time. The origin of the village is well in front, but the official 900 - year anniversary was celebrated in 1991.

Around 1250 there is evidence of a parish church ( " parochia in Asenthorpe " ) and it arrived in the 16th century to a further mention in the church records: The St. Paul Monastery in Bremen, which included the Asendorfer Church, refused the debt with ablate that were created by the crew of the county Hoya by the Dukes of Brunswick- Lüneburg. Count Jobst II von Hoya confiscated in consequence, the goods of the monastery in Asendorf.

In 1524 the tower of St. Marcellus Church was built and extended the nave. 1778 was a renewal of the Church and in 1909 the two transepts and the apse were grown. Between 1950 and 1964 there were a total repair with painting of the interior of the church.

The Asendorf station is today endpoint of the First Museum Railway in Germany.
