Ahrensburg

Ahrensburg is a town in the district of Stormarn, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. It is found upper east of Hamburg and is a piece of the Hamburg Metropolitan Region. Its population is around 31,000. Schloss Ahrensburg, the town's image, is a Renaissance chateau dating from 1595. Ahrensburg is arranged in the Tunneltal, in which Alfred Rust exhumed numerous things going back to the ice age.

The Ahrensburger Tunneltal is a position of various unearthings from the Upper Paleolithic culture. The way of life is called Ahrensburg culture by archeologists. The town goes back to the 13^th century, when the Counts of Schauenburg established the town of Woldenhorn and the neighboring towns Ahrensfelde, Meilsdorf and Beimoor. Woldenhorn is first referenced in the year 1314.

The town came into the ownership of the Cistercian Reinfeld Abbey in 1327, and Woldenhorn turned into the seat of the religious community reeve until the center of the 16^th century. At the point when Ahrensburg got city rights in 1949, the town had somewhere in the range of 17,775 occupants – around half of which were exiles from the previous eastern German locales. Erica Keck, who was chosen civic chairman in 1950, turned into the principal female chosen city hall leader in Germany.
