Eberholzen is a village and former municipality, located in the district of Hildesheim in Lower Saxony, Germany. The village has been a part of the municipality Sibbesse since November 1, 2016.[1]

History

[edit]

Eberholzen is an old village dating back to 1240. It was first mentioned in a document written in the same year, where it was referred to as Eilber Holthusen. According to the document, Eberholzen was a tributary to a monastery in the nearby village of Escherde.

Sights

[edit]

The tower of the Protestant church dates back to the 12th century, where a medieval stone coffin can be seen in front of it. According to legend, it belonged to Ritter von Eberhardt, a knight who was excommunicated and not buried on the cemetery of Eberholzen.[2]
