The class of Fe1+x(Te1−ySey) compounds is the counterpart of Fe-pnictides, special effects as magnetic order or superconductivity are found. A special topic is the interplay of magnetic and lattice properties which is crucial for a number of correlation phenomena. Thermal expansion and isothermal magnetostriction was measured on Fe1+xTe (x = 0, 0.06, 0.13) and compared to other experiments and model concepts. As one fact, it is shown that magnetic order exists independently of lattice distortions, already at higher temperatures than the latter ones. Moreover, strong thermal hysteresis effects occur. This behaviour differs from that of the Fe-pnictides and therefore, microscopic mechanisms (as for example magnetic fluctuations) should stay a matter of particular interest.
