Hondelage

Hondelage is a Stadtbezirk (borough) on the river Schunter in the north-eastern part of Braunschweig, Germany.

During the early 16th century, the farming village became property of the Imperial abbey Riddagshausen.

Hondelagia, an extinct genus of snakefly, is named after Hondelage, the only place it has been found so far.
