==History== The first mention of the village of Ölper, then called Elbere, is in 1251. In 1642, the Ölper Tower (Ölper Turm) was built as an outer defence for Braunschweig and a customs post, but it was demolished in 1825 and replaced with a dance hall which still carries the name. An important part of the early economy of Ölper was a large water mill, the Ölpermühle. At one time, the mill had eleven mill-wheels and was one of the largest mills in northern Germany. It fell out of use in the 19th century.
