== History == Blekendorf was first mentioned in 1259 as Blegkendorpe (later spelled Bleckendorp ). The name probably comes from Middle Low German and means "looking" or "shining village." Since the 13th century, Blekendorf has been the ecclesiastical center for the surrounding villages of Futterkamp, Friederikenthal, Sechendorf, Sehlendorf, Rathlau, and Kaköhl. In 1855, 258 people lived in the village of Blekendorf itself.
