Lindhorst


  

"Verden an der Aller  

 called Verden (Aller) or simply Verden,   




is a town in Lower Saxony, Germany, on the river Aller.  

It is the district town of the district of Verden in Lower Saxony and an independent municipality (de:Selbständige Gemeinde). The town is located in the middle Weser region on the Aller river immediately before it flows into the Weser.  

As a center of horse breeding and equestrian sports, it bears the nickname "equestrian town".

The suffix "Aller" was introduced at a time when the name "Verden" was also common for the French town of Verdun in the German-speaking area.  

The town name comes from "ford" or "ferry". The town was conveniently located at a ford through the Aller river, near an important trade route." 

"Verden is famous for a massacre of Saxons in 782, committed on the orders of Charlemagne (the Massacre of Verden), for its cathedral, and for its horse-breeding."
