Klein Lengden

Klein Lengden is a village in the Gleichen in the Göttingen district of Lower Saxony, Germany, about eight to ten kilometers south-east of Göttingen. According to the 2010 census, it has about 1363 inhabitants. The village lies in the Garte valley, south of the forested hills of Lengderburg with its Lengdener Burg and Westerberg and is otherwise surrounded by farm fields. The nearest neighboring villages are Gross Lengden to the east and Diemarden to the west-south-west, each of which is about two kilometers distant.

Just outside the village, on L569, the road to Benniehausen, is the Historische Spinnerei Gartetal . In the late 16th century, a flour mill was erected on the site. In the middle of the following century, a paper mill was added. The Industrial Revolution led to the conversion to a spinnery for flannel and woolen yarn.
