Aplerbeck was first mentioned in a deed of foundation in 899 under the name Afaldrabechi . The name is made up of Afal , which means apple (but berry bushes were also called that way) and Bechi ~ Bach . The first traces of settlement can be found for the Neolithic Age . Stone axes have been found in several places, dating from around 3500–2800 BC. Were dated. Outstanding is the find of a hammer ax with a cast seam reproduced in stone, as is the case with bronze casting. A burial mound on a small knoll has been preserved from the Bronze Age in the Berghofer Wald. Another barrow was found during the construction of the Schwerter TV tower in the Berghofer Wald. Other graves are suspected there. The Golden Legend , according to the 7th century the two were brothers Ewaldi , Anglo-Saxon missionaries slain at Aplerbeck.

Politically, Aplerbeck belonged to the county of Mark since the 12th century . The Counts of the Mark succeeded in taking over the fiefdom from the original feudal lord, the Archbishop of Cologne , through armed conflicts. In the 14th century the county fell to the Counts of Kleve. During the "Great Feud" between Dortmund and the Counts of the Mark in the 14th century, Aplerbeck was spared looting and pillage, but like other communities was devastated by the Dortmunders in 1422 in a campaign of revenge. During the Thirty Years' War , hordes of robbers and plunders also marched through Aplerbeck. In 1630 the master of the Rodenberg family, Johann von Voss, was captured and only released after paying a ransom. A document from 1652 shows that the necessary repairs to the church, caused by "war evils", were carried out with money from the church fund. In the 17th century, Aplerbeck was politically attached to Brandenburg. After the defeat of Prussia against Napoleon , the county of Mark (with other areas) was incorporated into the Grand Duchy of Berg as a Ruhr department and was thus under French control . In 1813, after the Wars of Liberation , the mark was added to Prussia and belonged to the Unna office. 1818 Aplerbeck was as mayor of the district Dortmund affiliated, 1887 the district Hörde .

With the beginning of industrialization, the United Schürbank & Charlottenburg colliery was built in Aplerbeck ; the population increased sharply. In 1855 Aplerbeck was connected to the Dortmund-Hörde-Aplerbeck-Unna railway line of the Cologne-Mindener Railway Company . The Aplerbecker Hütte was founded in 1862 . In the years 1906-07 was Amtshaus Aplerbeck by the official architect Wilhelm Stricker directly to a separate pond moat rebuilt the house Rodenberg. In 1920 this pond was filled in and today's market place was created. At the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century, Aplerbeck was known for its apple varieties, including the Aplerbecker Rambour variety. In 1925 the Aplerbecker hut, which had employed around 1,000 workers in its heyday, was closed. On August 1, 1929, the previously independent community was incorporated into Dortmund.

During the National Socialist era , the Jewish population was deported from Aplerbeck . Of around 120 parishioners in 1933 around 40 died in the Nazi camps, around 30 were able to emigrate, the fate of the others remains unclear. Approx. 340 forced sterilizations were carried out in the psychiatric clinic . There were also many victims of Nazi euthanasia, known as Aktion T4 : on July 1, 1941, 95 patients were first transported to Herborn , then transferred to Hadamar and killed there within a few days. A second deportation of 77 sick people was carried out on July 24, 1941 from Aplerbeck to Eichberg . A temporary euthanasia freeze was issued before the transport to Hadamar. This can also be traced back to the sermons given in July and August by the Münster bishop and cardinal Clemens August Graf von Galen . Most of the sick died in the following years of starvation and illness, only two of the previously deported patients survived the war. In the “ children's department ”, which was moved from Marsberg to Aplerbeck in 1941 , 229 children were also killed. Today, a memorial by the Dortmund artist Antje Kietzmann in the clinic's park commemorates the victims.

On December 13, 1959, the district suffered the greatest catastrophe in post-war history . Two houses were destroyed in a gas explosion and 26 people died. The rescuers of the Dortmund fire brigade and soldiers from the British Rhine Army stationed in Aplerbeck spent two days looking for survivors in the rubble. At the site of the accident, directly opposite the current terminus of the U 47, nothing reminds of the disaster.

religion

Big church
George's Church

The Reformation reached Aplerbeck in the middle of the 16th century . The community went over to the Augsburg Confession , which the Aplerbeck pastor Nicolaus Witthenius confirmed in writing at the Synod in Unna in October 1612. Up until 1850 there were two parish offices. After that, with the influx of thousands of people during the industrialization, further parish positions were necessary. The Reinoldikirche in Dortmund had the right of patronage over the Aplerbeck Georgskirche , which was never properly enforced and was therefore suspended at the beginning of the 19th century. Due to the high level of immigration, a larger church was necessary. The Georgskirche could not be enlarged; Therefore, the Great Aplerbeck Church was rebuilt according to the plans of the Barmer builder Christian Heyden . It was consecrated on December 15, 1869. The communities in Berghofen, Schüren and Sölde became independent parishes, and the Aplerbecker Mark and “Neu” -Aplerbeck were given their own parish positions.

As a result of immigration from southern and eastern Germany and from the eastern Prussian provinces with a large Polish population, more and more Catholic families settled in the Protestant Aplerbeck. A separate community should be founded for them as a religious and social home. On January 1, 1867, a Kötterhof was bought and rebuilt as a mission center. With great sacrifices, partly with bricks fired by the house , a new church was built according to plans by Cologne architect August Carl Lange . It was consecrated on December 21, 1880. The Catholic Church in Aplerbeck gave itself the name St. Ewaldi. The name goes back to the legend of the two Ewalde ( Schwarzer Ewald and Weißer Ewald ) who were killed in Aplerbeck in the 7th century, thrown into the Emscher, then miraculously driven up the Rhine to Cologne . The Catholic parish saw strong growth after the Second World War. A new church was consecrated on May 29, 1971, and the first church was demolished in the following years.

The New Apostolic Church in Aplerbeck was built in the direct vicinity of the Catholic St. Ewaldi Church.

Jews first settled in Aplerbeck in the 19th century . The community grew from six members in 1818 to around 120 in 1933. Since the persecution of the Jews under the Nazi regime, there has been no Jewish community in Aplerbeck. Two cemeteries have been preserved .

After the end of the Second World War, more and more people of Islamic faith moved to Aplerbeck, but did not maintain their own community there.

politics

On August 1, 1929, Aplerbeck was incorporated into Dortmund. After the Second World War, a citizens' committee was available to the Dortmund City Council until 1975.

Committees and administration

The district council has been taking care of matters in the district, which consists of 19 members, since 1975. They are headed by the district mayor, since 2016 Jürgen skull (SPD). The council members of the City of Dortmund who are directly and indirectly elected from the constituency of Aplerbeck have advisory voting rights. The aim is to establish a close connection between the work of the council and the district council. The first elected district council began its work on June 6, 1975. The cooperation between the CDU and Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen that had existed since 1999 was ended in January 2016.

Culture and sights

Buildings

House Rodenberg
Park Haus Rodenberg
House in the style of Friedensreich Hundertwasser

Aplerbeck's landmarks include the remains of the Rodenberg moated castle , which was first mentioned in 1290. In 1422, the castle was destroyed by Adolf von Kleve in the Clevisch-Märkischen succession dispute and then rebuilt and enlarged. It was then converted into a baroque moated castle in the 17th century. It fell into disrepair in the 19th and 20th centuries; all that remained was the outer bailey with the business section. Today the remains of the building, which was restored in 1996, are used by the adult education center and the Märchenbühne puppet theater .

Another attraction in Aplerbeck is the Georgskirche in the ruins street. It is very likely based on a previous building from the 9th century, as grave finds from renovation work suggest. There is evidence that the church was first mentioned in a papal confirmation in 1147 and has been rebuilt over the centuries. When, due to the population increase, the Great Aplerbeck Church on Märtmannstrasse was inaugurated in 1869 and all services were held there from then on, the Georgskirche fell into disrepair. This is how the ruin street, which until then had been called Königstraße, got its name. In 1963 a comprehensive restoration was completed under the direction of the State Monuments Office in Münster. Since then it has been available to the Protestant parish again for services. In 2006, severe damage to the masonry of St. George's Church due to water ingress was discovered, which was repaired through extensive restoration work financed by donations.

Museums

The Tridelta company maintains a magnet museum on its factory premises , which deals with historical and current applications of magnets in electrical engineering. One focus of the collection is the history of the Aplerbeck magnet factory , which was founded in 1920 as part of the Aplerbecker hut.

education

The first records of the Aplerbeck school system come from the year 1694 by the deacon Conrad Hermann Witthenius, who, as a teacher at the school, kept a record of the school fees, which were also paid in kind. He also mentions activities such as spinning wool, herding sheep and delivering wood. The subjects taught included religion, reading, writing, and arithmetic. Much time has been devoted to memorizing religious texts.

In 1857 a new school building was needed. The Protestant parish built the "Rectorate School" directly on the main street, Cologne-Berliner-Straße. The rectorate school developed into a secondary school that prepared for the entrance exam for a secondary school after completing elementary school. It existed until the 1930s. Today your building is used by the Westphalia regional association of the DLRG .

In 1862 the first school was built for the Catholic students who had moved here. As early as 1877 a new building was necessary due to the sudden increase in the population. This had to be expanded in 1880, 1890 and 1912/13. Today the Aplerbeck primary school is located here. After the Second World War, the bombed-out Hörde Realgymnasium in Aplerbeck was reopened as the Humboldt-Gymnasium, but in 1954 it was relocated to the Dortmund garden city . The Aplerbeck school center was built between 1969 and 1974. To the west of Schweizer Allee, the secondary school (formerly Hauptschule Aplerbeck, today's name Emscherschule Aplerbeck) and the Albrecht-Dürer-Realschule are located in a shared building, to the east the grammar school on Schweizer Allee . In 2002 an extension of the secondary school was completed and the core renovation of the grammar school was completed.

There are five special needs schools in the district. The Adolf-Schulte-Schule , a special school with a focus on learning, is located near the Aplerbeck school center. The school on Marsbruch , special focus on physical and motor development, the Martin Bartels School , special focus on vision and the Frida Kahlo School, school for the sick in the Elisabeth Clinic on Marsbruchstrasse, were built on the grounds of the Westphalia-Lippe Regional Association. Since the summer of 2010, the Martin-Buber-Schule , language support school , has also been located on the site .

"Film-Bühne" cinema in Aplerbeck

movie theater

Current situation

Aplerbeck is the last suburb of Dortmund with its own cinema , which has survived the big deaths with its current film program. Because of its proximity to the Hotel Postkutsche, it is only known under the name “Postkutsche Aplerbeck”, although it is actually called “Film-Bühne” and bears this name above the entrance. The name "film stage" is based on the fact that behind the pull-up cinema screen there is a stage on which big bands played until the 1950s.

Cinema history

The first Aplerbeck cinema was opened in 1912 under the name Viktoria-Lichtspiele . It was located in a new building erected by the manufacturer Ferdinand Klas at what was then Chausseestrasse 44, today's Köln-Berliner-Strasse. Klas ran the cinema with a war-related interruption until 1919. After a change of ownership, the landlord Albert Grossilbeck opened a cinema under the name Kammer-Lichtspiele on November 13, 1920 in the large hall of his restaurant . At the end of the 1920s, the Kammer-Lichtspiele changed hands again. The cinema was now called the Alhambra and was run by Karl Derendorf. Due to structural defects, there were occasional interruptions in gaming operations. In September 1935 the house was foreclosed and no more cinema screenings took place in the following 13 years.

From 1926 to 1928, regular cinema screenings took place under the name Schauburg in the specially converted hall of the innkeeper Fritz Velten. Veltens cinema with restaurant was located in Ruinsstrasse 5 on the site of today's parish hall of the New Apostolic parish.

Immediately adjacent to today's Aplerbeck elementary school, also popularly known as the Yellow School , the Capitol opened in 1932 in the converted former ballroom of the neighboring restaurant. With a change of ownership in mid-1948, the new owner changed the cinema name to Scala . Film screenings took place in these rooms until the mid-1960s.

The Capitol moved to the meanwhile renovated building at Köln-Berliner-Straße 44 in mid-1948 and continued its gaming operations there until mid-1962. Afterwards and until it was demolished after a severe fire in the early 1980s, there was a supermarket there.

The Aplerbeck film stage opened on September 14, 1954 with the film If you still have a mother by Paula Wessely in the building on Schüruferstrasse, which is still used for this purpose today.

From 1954 to 1962, cinema screenings were offered simultaneously at three locations in Aplerbeck , along with the Capitol , Scala and the film stage .

The district library is located in the former Stadtsparkasse building , the sandstone facade of which has been extensively restored.

Economy and Infrastructure

economy

Aplerbeck has experienced immense change since industrialization. The Aplerbecker hut closed in the 1920s . At the end of the 1990s, several hundred jobs were lost at the Aplerbeck magnet factory, which was located on the site of the former smelter, due to interim closure (Thyssen Magnettechnik); Today the production of magnets is continued on a smaller scale by the Tridelta group. New business locations (large-scale printing, Plexiglas production) created new jobs. The retail structure has recently been significantly changed by the urban redesign of the western town center, which was completed in the early 2000s, with a bypass road and a new shopping area.

The material testing office of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia is known beyond the city limits . The state company has the task of testing substances, products, systems and processes in the public interest with the aim of protecting the general public against dangers and supporting the economy in quality assurance. The materials testing office was founded in Dortmund in 1947 and was located in 1952 on Marsbruchstrasse in Aplerbeck.

Wilfried Rasch Clinic

The Aplerbeck forensic clinic , the Wilfried Rasch Clinic , was inaugurated on January 13, 2006 by the North Rhine-Westphalian Minister of Health, Karl-Josef Laumann . It was obtained on January 26, 2006 by 49 mentally ill offenders from the Eickelborn Clinic . The facility is designed for 54 prisoners. Since September 2006 it is planned to increase the capacity to 62 patients in order to increase the profitability of the facility. These plans are highly controversial among the population and local politicians. The clinic after the 2000 deceased professor was named Wilfried Rasch , who for the forensic unit has made strong. It is one of the psychiatric institutions in Aplerbeck alongside the LWL Clinic Dortmund for Psychiatry (established in 1890) and the Elisabeth Clinic for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Psychotherapy .

The Rodenberg park is attached to the Aplerbeck market square with its regular weekly market. The market square and town center were redesigned after many years of major construction work for canal construction and for the renaturation of the Emscher . Since 2010 the Emscher has been flowing through the town center above ground in a naturally designed stream. Only a short canal passage between the confluence of the Nathebach and the market square remained.

traffic

Aplerbeck is conveniently located in the triangle of the A 44 and B 1 in the north, the B 236n in the west / south-west and A 1 in the south-east. Because of the steadily increasing road traffic, a bypass road ("Nordumgehung") was completed in 2001, which relieves the town center of through traffic. Almost at the same time a new shopping center was built on this bypass, which is why the retailers in the town center have since complained of a decline in customers and had to close some traditional shops.

Aplerbeck can be reached by public transport from the center of Dortmund with the U 47 light rail . The districts and cities bordering on Aplerbeck are connected by more than half a dozen bus routes, plus four night express bus routes , which then run every hour.

Two Deutsche Bahn stations open up Aplerbeck. Both lost their station buildings after the Second World War . The Dortmund-Aplerbeck train station, built in 1855 by the BME on the Hellwegbahn Dortmund - Unna - Soest, is located near the town center . In the medium term, it is planned to move to the east in order to achieve a better connection with local public transport. In the south of the district, the Dortmund-Aplerbeck Süd stop was built in 1912 , which is now served by the Ardey Railway Dortmund - Schwerte - Iserlohn . At the end of 2006 this station was repaired.

freetime and sports

Facade of the indoor swimming pool

Aplerbeck is the location of a district indoor swimming pool with a 25-meter lane, a teaching pool and a one-meter board. In 2004, the sponsorship was transferred from the city of Dortmund to the Aplerbeck swimming clubs, which prevented an impending closure. By switching to a disinfection process using electrolysis , the pool water is now free of chlorine gas. In 2006 the facade was repainted and lavishly designed. Completely renovated with funds from the economic stimulus package II , the swimming pool was reopened at the end of January 2011.

Skater facility on Schweizer Allee

Aplerbeck offers other sports: gyms, sports fields and places for trend sports such as inline skating , mountain biking or beach volleyball are spread across the district. Extensive jogging and walking trails as well as mountain bike and riding trails have been created in the neighboring Schwerter Wald.

The Sauerland Mountain Association (SGV) maintains an official circular hiking trail (13 km) around the district. He's with the sign  ◯  excellent and starts at the market square in front of the administration building Aplerbeck , leads past the Church of St. George on the Aplerbecker Mark and the nature reserve Aplerbecker forest to the Great Church , on the buildings of the psychiatric hospital and the moated castle Haus Rodenberg along back to the marketplace. In the Aplerbecker Wald nature reserve there is another, shorter circular hiking trail that has been awarded  A1  .

societies

In the sports and leisure sector, Aplerbeck is characterized by a large variety of clubs. In addition to various sports clubs, there are u. a. Horticulture, society, singing, animal breeding, shooting, beekeeping, history, cultural and music associations. This diversity developed in the 19th and 20th centuries. Due to the population explosion of the incipient industrialization, “neighborhood” associations could no longer last, and smaller and spatially restricted communities were founded. The resulting new personal networks were especially important for the workforce. Today, these associations meet every autumn for a weekend on the market square and the now traffic-calmed main road to the Aplerbeck Apple Festival.

Retirement homes and residential complexes for the elderly

In recent years, a home and three residential complexes have been built for senior citizens. The senior citizens' residential complexes with facilities for assisted living are located directly in the center of the village or at the park of Haus Rodenberg, the retirement home was built in the “Neu Aplerbeck” area north of the center. Another facility, the “Pflegewohnstift Rodenbergtor”, was opened in early 2008 at the eastern end of the bypass road in front of the Great Church, together with the newly created Ewaldipark . There is also the Caritas nursing home “St. Ewaldi ”on Weisse-Ewald-Strasse.

graveyards

Old Jewish cemetery on Schweizer Allee
Historic mourning hall in the municipal cemetery

Until 1848, burials were carried out in the cemetery directly at the Georgskirche in the town center. Gravestones from the 16th to 19th centuries have been preserved. Since this cemetery became too small with the beginning of industrialization, the community built the Aplerbeck municipal cemetery in 1846 . To the northeast of the town center are on the eastern side of Aplerbecker Straße der Evangelische and on the western side the Catholic cemetery Aplerbeck. These cemeteries were laid out at the end of the 19th century with the construction of the Protestant Great Church and the establishment of the Catholic community. These cemeteries are also occupied to this day.

The Old Jewish Cemetery is located on Schweizer Allee. There is no reliable data about its opening. A stone, predominantly inscribed in Hebrew, bears the date February 11, 1855. In 1926 this cemetery was closed.
