Büchsenschinken is a district of the city Reinbek in the northern German state of Schleswig-Holstein. It was first settled by Johann Daniel Witten in 1825 as a small stop in the route between Hamburg and Mölln. The settlement has historically always been part of Ohe, never constituting its own municipality. When Ohe was integrated into Reinbek during a 1974 territorial reform, Büchsenschinken was as well.[1]

Büchsenschinken is home to the Hof Büchsenschinken horse stable[2] as well as a small settlement of around 200 people.

History[edit]

Büchsenschinken was first settled by Johann Daniel Witten from Witzhave in 1825 after he was granted permission by the office of Reinbek to build a timber-framed house in the area. When he acquired a license to distribute alcohol a few years later, his property developed into the inn Gasthof Büchsenschinken, a popular stop in the route between Hamburg and Mölln. The inn, which was maintained by his descendens, ceased operation in 2005 and was demolished in 2008.[3][4]

The small settlement consisted exclusively of the Witten family until 1945.[4][5]

Büchsenschinken was included in the formation of the municipality of Ohe in 1867,[6] which it stayed a part of until Ohe was fully integrated Reinbek during a 1974 territorial reform.[1]
