About Vahrenwald
What are the main landmarks in Vahrenwald?
Three, and all of them churches. The Heilig-Geist-Kirche and the Matthäuskirche take two of the three places, and beyond them Vahrenwald records no tower, no park, no museum and no monument of any kind inside the quarter's own boundary. A third church completes it.
Beyond those three churches, Vahrenwald files nothing at all.
What is the history of Vahrenwald?
The village is first documented in 1183, as Vorenwalde. What else Vahrenwald keeps is three church dedications, and they are the sum of what the register keeps about the quarter's past inside the city of Hannover. Churches date a place indirectly.
Hannover's own first mention came twenty years earlier. The Heilig-Geist-Kirche and the Matthäuskirche are the two the record names outright.
Where is Vahrenwald?
Vahrenwald is built ground inside Hannover, with the Heilig-Geist-Kirche and the Matthäuskirche standing among its streets.
