Geography edit

Ollndorf lies south of the municipality Niendorf, about six kilometres southwest from Schönberg and 15 kilometres southwest from downtown Lübeck. The area falls from about 30 to 15 m over NHN until 500 meters east of the settlements up to the river Maurine (stream).

History edit

Ollndorf's first documented mention is in 1194 A.D. in the Isfriedschen Teilungsvertrag as Bistenowe, and it was later named Oldendorf.[1]

In 1933 Ollndorf had 101 inhabitants; this figure dropped until 1939 to 84.[2]

On July 1, 1950 the surrounding municipalities of Niendorf, Bechelsdorf, Klein Siemz, Ollndorf und Törpt were merged to just one named Gemeinde Niendorf.[3]

Infrastructure edit

About 350 meters west lies the country road 1 starting in Schönberg and reaching to the border of Ratzeburg. There are buses to the nearest town Schönberg. The connection to the nearest highway Bundesautobahn 20 lies about 6 km away next from the village Lüdersdorf. The closest train connection to the nearby Route: Lübeck – Bad Kleinen can be accessed over Schönberg or also over Lüdersdorf.[4]

Ollndorf belongs to the school catchment area of Schönberg.[5]

Celebrities edit

The farmer poet Wilhelm Bade (1841–1928) lived in Ollndorf.[6] He dedicated the poem De ohle Katenschult to Franz Maaß (born 1774), who was mayor (in old German Schultzen) of the municipality at that time and whose nickname was "Katenschult".[7]
