Geography
Trittau is located close to the Hahnheide forest. Nearby rivers are the river Aue and the river Bille. The county is abundant with small lakes.
History
The Trittau village dates back to the 12th century. It was first mentioned in 1167 in a document of Duke Henry the Lion.[2] In those days it was situated close to the Hamburg - Rostock and Hamburg - Lübeck trade routes.
The village then consisted of a Saxon part (Groß-Trittau) and a Wagrian part (Klein-Trittau). In 1326, a castle was built to defend the region and the trade route against the Scarpenberg knights from nearby Linau castle.
