View of Verden (Aller)

Ferdi in Saxonia, under this name Verden is mentioned for the first time in roughly today's name form in a document from Charlemagne. The name refers to a ford or ferry. In 782, the subjugation of the Saxons by Charlemagne came to a cruel climax in the Verden area during the Saxon Wars: Apparently 4,500 residents of the then sparsely populated region were executed in the so-called “Verden Blood Court” after they refused to submit to the Frankish King Charles and embrace the Christian faith. Around 850[2] the diocese of Verden was established, which disappeared as an ecclesiastical diocese during the Reformation. In the following centuries, the city grew together from two settlement centers: the Norderstadt with its town hall and St. John's Church and the Süderstadt with the spiritual center around the cathedral, to which the fishing settlement on the Aller was attached.Source and further information: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verden_(Aller)
