Office Sprockhövel

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Sprockhövel office was an office in the Bochum district (until 1819), the Hagen district (until 1887), the Schwelm district (until 1929) and the Ennepe-Ruhr district (until 1937).

The office was established as the mayor's office of Sprockhövel in 1817 as the successor to Mairie Sprockhövel in the Hagen arrondissement in the Ruhr department of the French-occupied Grand Duchy of Berg . Prussia provisionally administered the Grand Duchy after the French had withdrawn in the Generalgouvernement of Berg before it was finally granted the area at the Congress of Vienna . After the founding of the Province of Westphalia , Prussia introduced its administrative structures. The mayor's office Sprockhövel was initially assigned to the Bochum district, but was added to the Hagen district as early as 1819.

Noelle was mayor from November 1839 to November 1847 and then bailiff of the Sprockhövel office; he wrote a chronicle.

In 1843 the mayor's office was converted into an office. The rural communities ( farmers ) Obersprockhövel , Niedersprockhövel and Hiddinghausen II (also known as Klein-Hiddinghausen) belonged to the office.

In 1887 the office was split off from the Hagen district and assigned to the newly founded Schwelm district. This was dissolved in 1929 and the office was succeeded by the Ennepe-Ruhr-Kreis.

In 1937 the rural community of Hiddinghausen II was united with the rural community of Hiddinghausen I (Groß-Hiddinghausen), which belonged to the Haßlinghausen office , and the newly founded rural community of Hiddinghausen was incorporated into the Haßlinghausen office. The Sprockhövel office was dissolved at the same time and the two remaining municipalities Obersprockhövel and Niedersprockhövel were incorporated into the Blankenstein office. On January 1, 1970 , the city of Sprockhövel was expanded from the former administrative area to include the rest of the Haßlinghausen office and peripheral parts of the Hattingen office .
