background
The Hildesheimer Börde is an agriculturally used border landscape in the middle of the cities of Hildesheim in the west, Braunschweig and Wolfenbüttel in the east, Peine in the northeast and Salzgitter in the south. The region, which is delimited differently by different sources, is delimited by the Hildesheim Forest to the south, by the Leine to the west and roughly the Mittelkanal to the north. According to the most common definition, it goes to the east via the district Pain and the county Wolfenbüttel in the Magdeburg Börde over, and extends here beyond the borders of the Hildesheim district. Ultimately, the peculiarity of the Bördelandschaft, the black earth loess soil, is the decisive criterion for belonging to the region.
Due to the extremely fertile soil, the region is heavily agricultural with many smaller and larger villages, but no cities. Many of the villages in the Hildesheimer Börde were so-called Stiftsdörfer, They were part of the secular possession of the Diocese of Hildesheim for over 500 years and are therefore still very Catholic today, which is a peculiarity in the largely Protestant Lower Saxony.
In the small villages there is often a large number of private accommodations due to the close proximity to the large cities of Braunschweig and Hanover, especially during trade fairs like the CeBit and Hannover tradefair are in high demand. Also, many farms have come up with it vacation on the farm built a second pillar. Holidays in the Börde make it possible to combine rural holidays with culturally ambitious excursions to the cities without having to accept long travel times.
language
High German is spoken in the Hildesheim region, while Low German is now rather unusual even in the villages.
