Stubben

The town really began to grow when Stubben station was built as part of the Bremen–Bremerhaven line, allowing the residents to get to the nearby cities where they worked.

Stubben grew and merged with the former independent communities of Adelstedt, Brunshausen, and Elfershude and with the Erbhof Plein, an area which previously belonged to neighbouring Bokel.

The Stubben railway station eventually developed into a major transhipment point for livestock, timber, fertilizer and agricultural products.

Together with the importance of highway 134, with the Beverstedt Hagen and the Bundesautobahn 27, the town is the hub of many convenient transport links.

For leisure, there are sports facilities including a gym, football field and tennis courts.
