Blutbachquelle History?
Does anyone know where I can find information on the Blutbachquelle close by Langenfeld/Hattendorf, Niedersachsen, Germany. In english though.
Answers: Battle of the Süntel (782) [Edit]
During the violent Christianity by Karl the Great encounter in the year 782 francs and Saxony on Süntel clash. A Fanken army , originally against the Sorbs contained by Thuringia sent, learns of a renewed uprising of Saxony, discovered at the military camp and stormed Süntel blindly at the enemy. The Saxony underneath the leadership of Duke Widukind expect the attack contained by good decree, a part of them bypasses the franc, which consequently almost all slain. The name Totental and Blutquelle at Hohenstein and Dachtelfeld ( dachteln = schlagen [beat]) still remember the massacre. Karl the Great revenges himself with the "blood court contained by Verden in the Aller", which allegedly 4500 Noble of Saxony be executed. The historians are not unanimous but here, see blood court of Verden.
