Emmerthal
municipality of Germany
Emmerthal (German pronunciation: [ˈɛmɐˌtaːl] ) is a municipality in the Hameln-Pyrmont district, in Lower Saxony, Germany. It is situated on the river Weser, approximatively 6 km south of Hameln. Its seat is in the village Kirchohsen.
In 1973, the Emmerthal was formed by merging the previously independent municipalities of Amelgatzen, Bessinghausen, Börry, Brockensen, Emmern, Esperde, Frenke, Grohnde, Hagenohsen, Hajen, Hämelschenburg, Kirchohsen, Latferde, Lüntorf, Ohr, Voremberg, Welsede.
The Grohnde Nuclear Power Plant is located in the Emmerthal.
From 1933 to 1937, the National Socialists held their national thanksgiving festival in a field on the nearby Bückeberg hill.
Begin with the source’s own compact description: “Emmerthal” is municipality of Germany. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through Emmerthal, municipality and Germany, not as a finished interpretation.
Why this record matters
The phrase “municipality of Germany” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 2, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q534670. VIAF identifies the subject as 127860725. The Library of Congress control number is n82038349. Authority coordinates are 52.050, 9.383. 4 of 4 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1973, 1933 and 1937.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
