Legendary bears served as a deterrent **Saddle bears served as a deterrent**There are two theories as to the origin and meaning of the word Sattelmeyer. On the one hand, Sattel can refer to "Sadel = seat" or "sadeln = to settle" (Saxon), and designates these farmsteads as ancestral seats or original settlements, where the first settlers had their homes. On the other hand, according to documents from the 17th century, the Sattelmeyer were farmers who always had to provide a strong man with a horse and saddle to defend their sovereigns. This could also be the origin of the name Sattelmeyer. The unpopular standby service was soon converted into a monetary levy. The Baringhof (with the Barmeyer family) was - like all Sattelmeyer farms - so large from the outset that it could not be managed without outside help. In addition to the main house, there were several houses for farm workers and their families. On December 6, 1926, the farm burned down completely except for a cottage and a stable, and the new house was built in the East Elbe manor house style. The farm has 120 hectares of land, including around 26.5 hectares of forest with a high proportion of conifers. The Barmeyer family has a bear in their coat of arms because, according to legend, they looked after bears here, which were taken into battle to scare off the enemy.Further information: Read more Good to know ------------ Openings 1.
