Opposite the Protestant church of Lahde, a neo-Gothic building from 1894, you will find the "Meierhöfe Lahde" - founded in 1471 by the monastery Loccum. The name Meier is originally a professional title, which dates back to the time of the early churches and monasteries before the year 1000. As the population grew, a so-called "meyer" was set up in each village, a fronhof charged with collecting taxes. It is probable that the three Meier farms have remained in the same family since their foundation in 1471. At Court No. 1, the professional name "Meyer" also became a surname. In the other two farms, the right surnames have prevailed over time.

A detour to the Lahde Meyerhöfe farms is worthwhile – they tell the exciting story of monastic farming in Lahde. Originally founded as a branch monastery of Loccum, five farms of economic importance developed here over the centuries. Today, traces of this past can be discovered around the church and the historic farmsteads.
