Becklingen is a German village in the Lower Saxon borough of Bergen in the northern part of Celle district on the Lüneburg Heath.
Becklingen lies about 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) north of Bergen just off the B 3 federal highway and has 382 inhabitants (as at: 31 December 2000).
Farms to which the so-called manorial rights applied had been hitherto obliged to give numerous services and make frequent payments to the manor.
On 13 January 1872, west of Becklingen in the forest known as Becklinger Holz, which is nowadays within the Bergen-Hohne Training Area, the last wolf seen on the Lüneburg Heath in over a century was shot.
From the 14th century Bergen was recorded as having a vogtei's office, the lowest level of administration and justice, which was presided over by a ducal vogt.
Matters of importance that only affected Becklingen were discussed and decided by the Realgemeinde, i.e. the farm owners who had common land rights.
