Geography

Geographical Location

A still apt description can be found in the Barnstedter school chronicle. It was recorded in 1900 by the village schoolteacher William Knigge:

" Barnstedt is located in a valley to the north, south and west the ground is much higher. At too dry, the village does not suffer, at some points in places it is even quite damp. If a strong rainy weather breaks loose, so some road is to be compared with a rushing brook. During the rainy season there is always a great dirt on the streets. The neighborhood is rich hill. Higher mountains are not available. West of places within a short distance is the Goldberg, but where no gold, but the most beautiful white and yellow sand is found. It is gradually removed. In the north of the mill mountain on which the windmill is. East of the places the butter mountain and farther rises in a small shrubs on the road to Ebstorf the cake mountain, which has, in fact, something similar to a pancake. If one converts the way to the Süsing, so you have to exceed the Krahenberg and if one goes by the Richtweg Glüsingen, climb up the steep Spitzberg. "

Culture and sights

Worth seeing in Barnstedt is probably going back to the 8th century manor Barnstedt robbery, which is owned by the family of Estorff since 1165. The oldest part of the manor, which was destroyed in the course of the story several times by fire, is the estate chapel was built in 1593. This is now used not only for worship but also for concerts and readings.

History of the estate chapel Barnstedt

Since the 12th century the family of Estorff on the manor Barnstedt is established. 1576 decided the brothers Henry, Carl and Luleff Estorff to build a chapel in Barnstedt. 1593 fulfilled Ludolph of Estorff his father's wish and built this chapel. 1731 was Eleonore de Farcy de St. Laurent, wife of Ludolph Otto von Estorff put to Barnstedt the chapel at this place, provided them with a tower and a bell from the year 1368. Altar The pulpit also dates from this period. 1893, the dilapidated chapel of Albrecht von Estorff through a thorough renovation has been restored. The north entrance will be relocated to the west side and provided with a stem. In 1966, over painted pictures of the pulpit altar were uncovered from the period of 1731 again, as is the bar liveries. In 1985, through the district of Lüneburg thoroughly renovated. Here, an old tile floor was exposed again. The previously hidden -been half-timbered gable front was made ​​visible again. The ceiling area was returned to its old version. On the oak ceiling planks the " grisaille " painting of been added. The aim of the renovation was the original character of the chapel to be restored.

Geology

The municipality is part of the North German Middle Pleistocene landscape, that is, the surface shape was formed not by the past, the Weichsel ice age, but the older Saale glaciation by deposition of Scandinavian boulders. During the Saale glaciation again it was the older Drenthe stage, during which the deposits were made here. This puts them since 165000-210000 years in the territory of the present municipality Barnstedt.

For the most part it is sand and gravel glazifluviatiler nature, that is, they were transported by melt water and then deposited. Only a very small area proportion Kolkhagen north and the south-western outskirts of Barnstedt is ground moraine and thus loamy, because the finer particles were not only removed from the water, but remained lying on the spot.

On the northern outskirts of Barnstedt there is finally an occurrence in small areas of fine sandy clay and silt, a sediment basin. So it has to be during the Saale glaciation a water surface have been located at the bottom of which finer suspended solids could settle into a more meters thick layer over long periods. This clay deposits was the livelihood for the former Barnstedter brickyard, which is listed on the first edition of the measuring table sheet 2828 Bienenbuttel, which was published in 1901 as such.

The geological feature that is hidden under the mighty glacial cover layer and the eye of the beholder of the landscape almost entirely cut off, the salt dome is Kolkhagen. He is a tremendous Aufstülpung dormant in 3000 to 5000 m depth Zechsteinschicht. The Zechsteinsalz comes from the Palaeozoic era, the time of the Permian. The layer is about 250 million years old. It combines all of the salt domes near and far together.

The salt domes have been highly compressed with different intensity: during the salt dome Lüneburg, just ten kilometers from the lies of the northern boundary of the salt dome Kolkhagen, the surface has broken through and was not covered by the glacial boulders, the upward movement of the salt dome Kolkhagen has been somewhat weaker, so be Gipshut is below the earth's surface in such a short distance that the salt is in the sphere of influence of groundwater and is continuously leached a little. This Salzabtrag has been as salinity in Barnstedt - Melbecker Bach about a mile west Melbeck detected in the municipal boundary Barnstedt / Melbeck.

The Salzabtrag also leads to an underground chamber which, when they are grown up enough to have dips in the glacial surface layer result. Since the top layer of sands and gravels is, are funnel-shaped hollow forms - to be expected at the surface - according to the natural angle of repose. It is precisely this more or less round sinkholes are a characteristic of the community Barnstedt as well as the east adjoining districts Eitzen I and Beverbeck the community Bienenbuttel, until the salt base ranges Kolkhagen.

If the sinkholes had little depth and are the field marks, they often appear only slightly in appearance, as they are then plowed like their adjacent surfaces or used in forestry. Some, however, are so profound that they are beyond the control of ground water and become lakes. This is true for three sinkholes in the community part Kolkhagen, two of which have become valuable from a nationwide perspective biotopes: the so-called " Heinser sea eye" (on the border with the north-western neighboring community Embsen ) and the pond in the Grewoh (see Section vegetation). The third pond is located in a coniferous forest on the edge of the valley of the Barnstedter Bach and is almost without vegetation. He's only in 1933 arose and the youngest of all sinkholes. Neither on the German base map still on the Messtischblatt it is charted.

Two other relatively deep sinkholes south Kolkhagen ( on Triftweg ) and south Barnstedt only by surface water inflow sporadically filled with water. These sinkholes were next to two other object palynological investigations. The sinkhole on Triftweg was also mapped as habitat of national importance for nature conservation.

A sixth more significant sinkhole, still shown at the time of the Prussian land survey of 1901 as surface water has been drained, temporarily converted to agricultural use, then broke and fell verbinst and as a sinkhole barely noticeable (corridor designation broken mast ).

To reduce damage within the built-up local documents it has not yet come, although there is a risk at any time.

Waters

Watercourses

The municipal area drains into four streams: Barnstedter Bach, Hein Sener Bach, Bach Glindemann and to a small extent in the neighboring district of Uelzen to Eitzener Bach. Hein Sener Bach and Bach Glindemann are left tributaries of the Barnstedter Bach. This as well as the Bach Eitzener are left-hand tributaries of Ilmenau, which is a left tributary of the Elbe.

Barnstedter Bach

The Barnstedter village is heavily influenced by the Barnstedter Bach and the mill pond. The Barnstedter Bach is by joining up just south of the municipal boundary Barnstedt / Melbeck included in the alder swamp forests in the western neighboring community Betz village in the map of the valuable for nature conservation areas in Lower Saxony, with directly adjacent forest and marsh areas. It is located in FFH area " Ilmenau with tributary streams " and is part of the European ecological network Natura 2000. The high for protection has been met with under protection as a nature reserve on December 6, 2007. The NSG includes the lowlands of Barnstedt - Melbecker brook with its tributary streams of Betzdorf to Melbeck and related Talrandbereiche.

The Barnstedter creek rises to about 80 m in the west village and neighboring community Betz already in the natural area Hohe Heide. There, falling on an annual average 730 mm of precipitation, while it is in the natural space Luheheide in which Barnstedt, only 630 mm. In addition, the Barnstedter Bach in the community Betz village still has a relatively large catchment area, which up to 115 m above sea level. NN ranges. These are the reasons for the constant and relatively uniform runoff of this stream.

With its tributaries, the Barnstedter Bach is characterized by a realistic or slow, sometimes fast flowing strongly to slightly meandering, mostly shaded stream with diverse structures. Then the creek flows strongly straightened by pastures and meadows, patchy shadows on the edge of a wooded area along.

The peculiarity of the Barnstedter Bach is his means mountain character, which is due to be boulder- rich bed substrate, its low average temperature, its very good water quality and consequently its special aquatic fauna ( the protective regulation is intended, inter alia, the protection of brook lamprey, bullhead, river mussel, otters and rare birds serve ).

In the water quality map, 2000, the headwaters of the Barnsteder Bach Class I -II, a rare good predicate that is achieved by its settlement and traffic- distant history, through brownfield or biologically cultivated areas in the source areas, as well as its miles -wide course through natural alder - swamp forests. Through their complete shading of the stream to its low temperature is due in the summer, which in turn has a positive effect on the oxygen content of the water and the aquatic fauna.

In the past, Bach learned his first stronger warming in Barnstedter mill pond, to which he had been dammed. The utilization of EU funds here in late August 2006, the largest renovation project of Barnstedter creek was completed. The " Water and Land Stewardship Association of Middle and Upper Ilmenau " had taken over the project sponsorship as well as the detailed design and construction management of around 550,000 euros expensive measure. The aim was to restore the ecological continuity of the stream. With the generous delimitation of the waters plots an intense natural alder nursery is in the rich seed supply from the above -lying swamp forests emerged in the water exchange area, which is now free to unfold, and already in another two to three years to complete shading of the stream to the district Kolkhagen may cause.

However, there is also criticism of the impact of the measure, which was bound to lead to a lowering of the river bed in the river section above the Barnstedter mill pond. It is this channeling of the stream arose and before it joined the draining of the original stream bed and the Ossenbruches, the meandering of the river formerly flowed into the mill pond. The water supply to the mill pond has been reduced to a minimum; because the stream no longer flows through the pond. This had led to the pond started to go stale. As a countermeasure, the old alder trees were removed around the edge of the pond (although alder leaves is not considered as a cause for the acidification of waters ). The original idyll is destroyed for the time being. The creek and the mill pond will still need several years to recover from this surgery and to find a new equilibrium.

Glindemann Bach

The Glindemann creek that lies with its adjacent relatively unspoiled forests also in the nature reserve " Barnstedt - Melbecker Bach " is fundamentally different nature than the Barnstedter Bach. It rises to about 40 m above sea level. NN in the natural area Luheheide and has a relatively small catchment area, the highest elevation of the Osterberg in the district Kolkhagen 66.8 m above sea level. NN is. This means that the Glindemann Bach brings worse conditions, which the runoff and the continuity of the drain as far as the Barnstedter Bach. Of course, can also have led to groundwater extraction that the Glindemann Bach had fallen during the period of (at least) April 1997 to 2001, on its middle reaches completely dry, so even during the winter half-year. Only in March 2002, he led again through water and this condition lasted sure to May 2003 (maybe longer? ) To. In the fall of 2009, however, the underflow was completely dried out ( a comparative observation of the middle reaches was no longer possible because of the protection associated with the regulation Betretungsverbotes ).

Hein Sener Bach

There are no detailed findings to Hein Sener Bach. He is neither part of the FFH area has been classified as worthy of protection even at the Lower Saxony biotope mapping. The Hein Sener brook rises to about 50 m above sea level. NN in the northern neighboring community Embsen, but as the Barnstedter Bach has quite a large water catchment area in the municipality Betz village, located up to 117 m above sea level. NN in the natural environment Hohe Heide extends into it. Accordingly, the Hein Sener Bach always leads water.

Within the community Barnstedt he has the class II

Former Bach from the Süsing

A fourth stream that even the Barnstedter stream flowing not in the 1960s as a right tributary of the Süsing is completely dried up, perhaps because its narrow, used as grassland valley in the upper reaches has been afforested (in the range of Glüsinger path ) with softwood.

Still waters

Natural pond in the community Barnstedt are already mentioned in the section geology three sinkholes that lie in groundwater: the Heinser Meerauge, the pond in the Grewoh and the recent sinkhole on the eastern edge of the valley of the Barnstedter Bach and the two are not constantly water-bearing sinkholes south Kolkhagen and south Barnstedt.

The Heinser Meerauge in 1988 classified as valuable for nature conservation with the habitat types Nutrient-rich pond and fen / swamp. As a Red List species Marsh Calla ( Calla palustris ) and fever clover ( Menyanthes trifoliata ) were observed. In the past 20 years, the state of the water has improved appreciably by a complete absence of the hitherto fairly intensive recovery traffic as Eutrophierungsfaktor. This is reflected in the multiplication of the Marsh Calla stocks and the spread of more mesotrophic to oligotrophic conditions characteristic beak - sedge ( Carex rostrata ).

The pond in Grewoh was taken with the habitat types Nutrient-rich pond, fen / marsh and birch carr in the map valuable for nature conservation areas in Lower Saxony subsequently, 1990; as an endangered species, the white water lily (Nymphaea alba) was quoted at the time, but which is only in the so-called " early warning " since 2004.

The sinkhole on Triftweg south Kolkhagen is also according to national criteria classified as worthy of protection with the habitat types Nutrient-rich pond, fen / marsh and wetland shrub; here was found as an endangered species, the thread - sedge ( Carex lasiocarpa ).

In addition to these natural standing water bodies, there are a number ponds, but due to its artificiality, its current or former use could not develop into valuable habitats. The knowledge, however, is based on random observations - a more recent systematic inventory does not exist.

Groundwater

The groundwater within the meaning of the term is hidden in the underground, only in sources or Erdaufschlüssen to light occurs and then to surface waters. Source outlets are available in alder forests in particular above Barnstedts in large numbers. You then mark the height of the groundwater level at that point.

Groundwater levels move in the municipality Barnstedt between 22 m above sea level. NN at its lowest point in the far north of the municipality and about 80 m above sea level. NN, documented by two seepage in Süsing, one of which is still a stream fed into the 1960s, the brook flowing not the Barnstedter (see above → watercourses ). This formerly torfmoosreiche source area is now also by Wildankirrung and concentrations of wildlife in such a crush that only a mud surface is reminiscent of what was a place full of poetry once.

Vegetation and Flora

Potential natural vegetation

According to the map of the potential natural vegetation of Lower Saxony ( commented by Ernst Preising ), the community Barnstedt lies in the transition region of the common oak - birch woodlands of low quartz sand soils to book - sessile oak forest in the loam and sandy soils Flott. The small scale of the map - 1:500,000 - does not allow statements to the forests of the groundwater- influenced lowlands.

It is clear in any case that without human intervention the entire municipality - with the exception of geographically marginal areas of water, would be covered with forest and the forests were composed of the main tree species oak, beech, birch, hornbeam, alder, ash and black cherry. And only those wooded areas, which are mainly composed of these tree species can ever be addressed as forests in vegetationskundlichem sense, all the rest are forests or, in smaller size, copses. The pine incidentally would also be naturally blended into the oak-birch forests in our area, which is assignable pollen analysis and based on archaeological finds. In order to delineate forests against forests attracts Hartmut Dierschke next to the tree species especially the ground vegetation up who are in full harmony with the natural site conditions, or at least has yet to be closely related to a natural species composition.

Real vegetation

The description of real vegetation are related to the peculiarities of nature and landscape in the municipality. The surfaces and the Shares to which the data refer are mentioned in the individual subsections. The rest of the surface, which are 97.25 % must, addressed as North German average landscape and its vegetation should not be considered further here.

Forests

Forests in the sense described above, there is in the municipal area only in the lowlands of the Barnstedter Bach, the Hein Sener Bach and the Glindemann Bach, outside the lowlands only rudimentary in the canyons ( glacially shaped, narrow Trockentälchen ) and on the steep slopes to Süsing (but on utilization only very small area close to nature ), in Albertinen enclosure east of the manor in Barnstedt and on a partial area of ​​the Dewelsheide.

These forest areas together comprise about 47 ha, which is 19.71 km ² in area community, a proportion of semi-natural forests of 2.38 %.

The forests of the lowland areas are alder carrs, alder and ash forests of the floodplains and source areas, birch and pine swamp forest (only in Glindenbachtal ) and the slightly higher Talrändern above Barnstedts and on Glindemann Bach transitions to mesophiles oak and hornbeam mixed forests ( habitat types according to O. v. Drachenfels ).

The largest area occupy the alder and ash forests of the floodplains and source areas.

All these forest types occur in six forest areas: one above Barnstedts, one in Grewoh, two in the valley of Barnstedter Bach east and northeast Kolkhagens and one each in Glindenbachtal and in the valley of Hein Sener Bach.

The Albertinen enclosure, the only forest outside the more basic -influenced areas, is a mixed deciduous forest on mostly fresh, only small areas of moist to wet, gently undulating, loamy- sandy soils. Is prevalent Melick - beech forest with altersheterogenem, some very old trees (beech to about 90 cm diameter at breast height ). It is a stepped inventory, some with shrub layer of young beeches, the herb layer is predominantly of medium coverage. In the northeast very small area transition to moist oak-hornbeam forest and wet in source areas of species-rich bird cherry - alder-ash forest. Fragmentary also comes Milzkraut - alder-ash forest source, in the east a small, less than a meter wide, some meandering spring creek before. In border areas, the forest floor as Saurer beech forest with wavy hair, pronounced at one point as a floor Saurer oak forest with bracken.

The Albertinen enclosure earned in two ways special attention: on the one hand it is a mesophilic Buchenwald for lowland conditions above average expression, on the other hand it is the only forest in the municipality Barnstedt, which can give an impression of how the municipality naturally on almost entire surface would look like.

Special attention finally deserves a small area pine forest in the Dewelsheide, which is characterized in contrast to the widespread pine forests of old, gnarled, widely spaced and deep betrauften pines that can be addressed even as a quaint tree shapes. This forest has significance as a document of the landscape history of Barnstedt: Just 100 years ago were indeed most of today's pine forests, with the exception of the edge regions of the Süsing that were planted earlier, extensive moors. From them is not one left in the village area, all of which were with conifer afforested with the exception of this pine forest, which was created by natural jaw approach and has of course evolved into the present-day state. The occurrence of sage - Gamanders ( Teucrium scorodonia ) in the herb layer, a kind of oak and pine forests and the Gentiles ( Erich Oberdorfer ) is a testament to the history and nature near this forest.

From this forest type, there are also fragments in the pine forests between the cemetery of Kolkhagen and the Gallows, but too small to call it a forest. However, there is still some copies of juniper (Juniperus communis) as a remnant from the time of Heath Economics ago. He was regarded as endangered nationally and is also specifically threatened by shading on the one hand and the use of machinery in forestry on the other.

Sedges, rushes and herbaceous swamp

This habitat type occurs without human intervention only in the peripheral areas of standing water (see section Still waters). Away from the water, where the forest is the highest stage of development of vegetation, are sedges and rush Riede or herbaceous marshes on utilization and come in the municipal area in front where the use has been abandoned or is done with such low intensity that the surfaces are not as wet grassland can be addressed.

Three such areas are shown on the map of the valuable for nature conservation areas in Lower Saxony within the municipal territory is described in the text: in the valley of the Barnstedter Bach west of Galgenberg to 1.5 ha sedge, rushes and Sims Riede, east of Barnstedter mill pond to around 2 ha marsh sedge, reed reeds, forest rush- Ried, small areas also slim sedge. Finally, there are the south-west of the enclosure Albertinen a small area sump with predominance of flutter Rush and transitions to forest rushes -Ried. The areas referred to take a total of about 4 ha, 0.2 % of the municipality.

Mesophile grassland, wetland and wet grassland

Grassland, which stands out in its species composition or expression from the fertilized and / or dehydrated average condition, has become rare, especially the fact that the free-range cattle has decreased in recent decades, many areas fall fallow and then floristic develop the grassland away (see section sedges, rushes and shrubs swamp ).

Mesophile grassland and wetland and wet grassland were found during the acquisition of the valuable for nature conservation areas in Lower Saxony only on a less than 0.8 hectare patch of extensive pasture with the corridor designation Large yard. Today, however, there is yet another, about 1.7 ha pasture area west of the former clay mining for brick Barnstedt that can be raised here as mesophilic grassland. Both areas make up about 0.13 % of the municipal territory.

Flora of the valuable for nature conservation areas

This flora for parts of its territory is necessarily incomplete, because the valuable for nature conservation areas have only a very small area proportion and they are not systematically mapped, but usually once, rarely committed several times and been written down the recognizable straight to the appropriate season species. This mapping from the years 1988 and 1990, information provided. The name and hazard degrees of ferns and flowering plants in accordance with the list of Garve, E., of the Moose the list of Monika Koperski:

For an endangered species of fungus is for the year 2009, a random observation before: in a powerful, ancient English oak in the " Adersahl " south Barnstedt comes the Shining Reishi ( Ganoderma lucidum, RL 3 by Knut Wöldecke ) ago. 2011, the rare water violet ( Hottonia palustris) was found in the Forstort Breetzkamp in a partially water-filled, well- periodic low-tide area sink.

Nature and landscape as a recreational area of human

Through its diversified rich relief and its relatively high proportion of forests and woods, the region is well suited for the recovery of the human principle. Accordingly, in the past, this investment has been made ​​- for example, a cross-regional cycle route from Hannover to Lüneburg was signposted within the municipal area and developed as a separate Sommerweg next to the forest roads in some cases.

There are also some much-used footpaths: the Holtorfer Miihlenweg from Barnstedter mill pond towards Holtorf, a pedestrian connection to the sinkhole in Grewoh over over the Barnstedter Bach to Albertinen enclosure, a path through the pine forest in the Dewelsheide as well as some ways to Gallows Hill. Because all have in common is that they touch valuable areas for conservation, cross or provide insights into them - a proof that the holiday maker has no detail or expertise on a global sense of something special in the landscape.

Around the transition from the 20th to the 21st century is a deep incision in the recovery suitability of the landscape especially done with the intensification of forest management in private forests. Since then, the harvesting is done mainly with large machinery and to make their use more economical to all year, day and night.

Three conditions may have contributed to this intensification: the post-war reforestation with pine initially led only to costs for thinning. This has therefore probably often postponed or stayed so many areas extended period remain unaffected and were able to develop more natural, at least at the outer edges and roadsides.

With the reunification of Germany in the new Länder new industries, wood processing have also been constructed so that timber sales offered opportunities that had not existed until then.

Finally, the progressive consumption of oil has moved the finiteness of this raw material into consciousness, causing the prices and at the same time the interest in wood raw material rise.

The intensification of use has significant consequences for nature and landscape:

The summer thinning carries the associated disturbances in the more used for rest of year.

Most machines use makes the way for even longer time unusable for walkers and cyclists, also are often romantic forest trails to wide machines routes. The Wegrandvegetation ( moss carpets, heather, blueberry, bush coats ) will be destroyed, because the harvest machines require a regular system of feedback loops iron. The forests are thus forced into a rather use grid as was customary until then. The advantage which the holiday maker had given the forest areas because of their greater closeness to nature before the field corridors, so remove the underlying causes. This is further enhanced by paint marks on the trees, with which the use of machinery is being controlled by the opening up of roads, which are also used by leisure seekers. Forestry, which present themselves as a marketplace for wood, but can not be perceived as natural.

In this situation, declining suitability for recreation ( the removed parts of the Cycle Route are now overgrown or destroyed by the Forwarding ) has been included with the February 14, 2007, the municipality in the Lüneburg Heath Nature Park. Nature Parks should be designed as large-scale model landscapes, specifically with a holistic approach to planning, the task fields landscape management and nature protection, securing an environmentally and socially responsible tourism, promotion of nature- methods in agriculture and forestry, preservation of cultural heritage, environmental education, information and public relations and coordinate other, the Natural Park area should comprise of respective plans (Wolfgang Strasdas ).

The discrepancy about the latest developments in the forests is so large that it will require enormous efforts to become the theoretical demand. Approaches for this are there, if, for example, ways how the Glüsinger path in the edge region of the Süsing be removed, even with local building material ways. It remains to be seen whether the perfect Holzabfuhrweg on duration will be the holiday maker replacement for the former forest path. The perception of the people for recreation suitability of the landscape often has a lot to do with intangible assets that are scientifically difficult to grasp or to hold at all into words.

Such intangible assets are described, for example, if the municipality is heard in the spring, the call of the cranes from the quarries and swamps, in the first cold September nights, the roaring of the stags in the extensive forests is up to the local situation of Barnstedt audibly or in the late dusk of summer evenings the strange guttural sounds of the woodcock are noticeable when it changes on the fly from one forest to another.
