The area of the velvet municipality is located on the Lower Elbe side of the district of Cuxhaven, in Lower Saxony. It is part of the historical-cultural tract of land Hadeln in the Elbe- Weser triangle and roughly covers the central part of the " Hadler highlands " between the present area of the city of Cuxhaven and the mouth of the Elbe river Oste.

History

The country Hadeln looks back to a long time politically independent development. Only when the Kingdom of Hanover was annexed after the Austro-Prussian War in 1866 by Prussia, ended the special status of the country Hadeln.

Together under the name "Five parishes ": In the Middle Ages the Hadelner Sietland was ( siet = " low " of low German ). ( Until the 14th century, existed alongside the churches in Wanna, Ihlienworth, Steinau and Odisheim also a chapel in Süderleda. ) Together with the Hadler Highlands ( "Seven parishes " ) and the city's residents Otter village, formed the Sietland one of the three " readings" of Hadler self-administration (see Warning Sacker ). However, from 1388 to about 1484 the Sietland was under the Bremen Bailiwick Bederkesa. In place of the parish Süderleda was entered at that time Wester- Ihlienworth (next Easter Ihlienworth ) as the fifth parish that had won through the medieval Holler colonization on population. After the five parishes came back to the country Hadeln.
