This HL is about the church. I can't understand why so many pictures are posted that have nothing to do with it, e.g. B. Iserhatche, forests, etc.

The parish belongs to the Hippolit Church

Their guiding principles:

Live – believe – act together

Together

That is the central word. Live, believe and act together in villages, groups and circles.

The church is more than a collection of individuals and interests. It is a challenge and challenge, as well as home and a source of strength. Only together can we live, believe and act!

History of the church

The Hippolit parish in Amelinghausen probably has a history going back more than 1,000 years. The exact circumstances surrounding the founding of the municipality are unclear.

Were they Frankish settlers who once built the church and gave Saint Hippolitus a special veneration? Documents about it are missing. If that were the case, then the first foundation could have been made as early as the middle of the 9th century.
Or was the church builder a century later the Verden bishop Amelung, a brother of the controversial margrave Hermann Billung? Bishop Amelung is well known as an admirer of Hippolitus.

Bishop Amelung died on May 5, 962. Did he found the church to express personal appreciation for St. Hippolitus? There are still no documents that would prove this step by Bishop Amelung.
