Wohlde (Bergen)

Wohlde is a hamlet in the parish of Dohnsen, that belongs to the Lower Saxon borough of Bergen in North Germany.

It lies in the northern part of the district of Celle on the Lüneburg Heath, 1 km east of Bergen, at a height of 77 to 81 m above sea level (NN).

On 31 January 1510 Pope Julius II issued the last letter of indulgence for the St. Michael's Monastery at Lüneburg, and this was for the pilgrims in Wohlde.

The chapel door, made of sturdy oak planks, has been preserved and is now the oldest exhibit in the Römstedthaus museum in Bergen.

The firm is a specialist in cereal breeding within the KWS Group and runs a total of four European companies in Germany, Great Britain, Poland and France.

In a wooded area northwest of Wohlde the Bergen Conservancy has created a so-called "forest classroom".
