Verden district, Administrative district in Lower Saxony, Germany
The district spans 787 square kilometers between Bremen and Hannover, containing eight municipalities including the towns of Verden and Achim.
The district formation occurred in 1932 when Prussia reorganized the former Kingdom of Hanover region, merging the administrative units of Verden and Achim.
The district coat of arms features a horse, symbolizing Lower Saxony, along with a wavy line representing rivers and grain ears indicating agricultural heritage.
The region maintains direct train connections to Bremen and Hamburg through multiple railway stations spread across different municipalities in the district.
The district territory includes the confluence of two major rivers, where the Aller flows into the Weser near the center of the region.
