The place is also known for the 1998 Eschede train disaster, in which an ICE 1 train crashed, killing 101 and making it the worst German rail accident since the Second World War.

The Ortschaft Höfer contains the villages Höfer, Aschenberg and Ohe. Höfer has an abandoned mine named Mariaglück, about 910 m deep, from which the sum of 13.2 million tons of common salt and potash salt was mined between 1916 and 1977. As the maximum, in 1943 about 241,000 tons of salt were produced. The excavation left a hole of 5 million cubic metres. In World War II some military equipment was manufactured underground, safe from bombing raids. Radioactive waste from the deep geological repository Schacht Asse II in the Wolfenbüttel district and ashes from waste incineration facilities, containing toxic metals, were frequently transported to the mine Mariaglück. In 2009, the district court of Lüneburg prohibited any further waste transport by issuing a preliminary injunction. Höfer has its own volunteer fire brigade, an open-air bath, and a kindergarten.
