Bamenohl is a district of the municipality of Finnentrop in the district of Olpe , North Rhine-Westphalia in the southern part of the Sauerland with around 2,900 inhabitants.

Geography and origin of name

The place is between Finnentrop and Grevenbrück on the federal highway 236 . It is divided by the Ruhr-Sieg route opened in 1861 , the Lenne and the federal road. Neighboring places of Bamenohl are, besides the named ones: Altfinnentrop , Dünschede / Silbecke, Sporke and Weringhausen . The highest point is the Dumberg on the southern border with 406 m. The place is located in the Rhenish Slate Mountains , a large part of the Attendorn-Elsper double hollow . The Bamenohl nature reserve is located in the village .

The origin and exact meaning of the name are unclear. In connection with the Ortschronik published in 2004, more than 25 different spellings for Bamenohl were found. The description for a damp area with the word part "-ohl" is undisputed.

history

Up until the end of the 19th century, the history of Bamenohl is very closely connected to Haus Bamenohl . Since there is no evidence of any original feudal dependence of the manor Bamenohl, it was probably an allod . Probably the possessions already existed in the first half of the 14th century through the division of inheritance in the house of the von Hundem gt. Pepersack from two halves.

14th and 15th centuries

According to the latest findings, Bamenohl was first mentioned in a document on March 5, 1324: Herbord Vogt von Heyen left Count Wilhelm von Arnsberg his own Conradum (Konrad), the son of Dietrich von Adorpe, and in exchange received the Gobelinus from Bawenole inferiore (Nieder- Bamenohl). In Herbordus of Heyen is a person who appears at the relevant time in several documents, as well as demonstrates the Heggener Dorfchronik. One of Herbord's brothers was Franco , who had a son Heidenreich , who was a second marriage to the Beleke von Hundem called Pepersack . Through this marriage, he and the von Heygen family came into possession or partial ownership of Haus Bamenohl.

A Kotten oppe dem Borne zu Bamenohl is mentioned for the second time on October 10, 1362 , in connection with the Wedemhof and the chapel in Oberbamenohl. Presumably this Kotten was located immediately southeast of the Bamenohl house. Since the von Hundem bequeathed a Kotten belonging to them in Oberbamenohl to the pastor in Schönholthausen , Gerd von Elspe , in the document mentioned, at least one branch of the family was presumably already located in Bamenohl with a noble house before 1362. Because in the document of 1324 a distinction was made between Ober- and Niederbamenohl, which meant that up the Lenne and down the Lenne was meant Nieder-Bamenohl.

16th to 18th century

An appraisal register from 1543 gives approximate indications of the size at that time. According to this, at that time there were a total of twelve persons liable for treasury in Bamenohl and Weringhausen, which should have roughly corresponded to the number of existing families or houses. Over the centuries, Bamenohl consisted only of the castle and four repeatedly mentioned farms, whose feudal lords were the respective owners of the Bamenohl family.

Modern times

1899, House Bamenohl with track of the lime works railway

In the course of the municipal reorganization of North Rhine-Westphalia in 1969, the council of the community of Schönholthausen, which existed until June 30, 1969, decided that Finnentrop should be designated as a central location and that the places Bamenohl and Weringhausen should be incorporated with the elimination of their place names. The aim was to give it the name “city”. After this goal could not be achieved due to a lack of "urban appearance" and the indignation of the Bamenohl and Weringhauser population because of the discontinuation of the historical place names grew, the council decided on September 21, 1982 to reintroduce the old place names. In doing so, Bamenohl lost a large part of its area to Finnentrop.

Population development

With the construction of the Ruhr-Sieg Railway and the onset of industrialization in the neighboring towns, the population grew from around 90 people in the first half of the 19th century over 1,400 at the beginning of the Second World War to 2,884 in 1961 and stood at 2,867 at the end of 2016 .

religion

2007, parish church St. Joseph Bamenohl

The majority of the Bamenohl population is of the Catholic faith. The only church in town is the parish church of St. Joseph , which was consecrated in 1926. The first pastor for the new Catholic parish of Bamenohl-Weringhausen was Franz Zeppenfeld, who held the first Holy Mass on December 13, 1901 in the Schützenhalle, which had been converted into an emergency church. The parish of St. Joseph Bamenohl-Weringhausen is now part of the Archdiocese (until 1930 Diocese) of Paderborn, the Deanery of South Sauerland and the Bigge-Lenne-Fretter-Tal pastoral association.

Another chapel belonged to Haus Bamenohl: The Albinus Chapel was built in 1647 and demolished in the early 1930s. That this was not the first church building that belonged to the castle is evident from a document dated May 28, 1379, according to which the pastor of Schönholthausen, Gerd von Elspe, undertakes to celebrate the Exaltation of the Cross (September 14) and the feast of the patron saint of this chapel to read a Holy Mass in Bamenohl. The Bamenohl family also had patronage over the churches of St. Jakobus in Elspe and St. Hippolytus in Helden .

Culture and sights

Economy and Infrastructure

1958, Mannesmann rolling mill and galvanizing plant

Bamenohl only gained economic importance with industrialization. The largest employer in the 20th century was Wolf Netter & Jacobi , which emerged from a rolling mill relocated here from Sondern near Olpe in 1867 , and from 1938 onwards Mannesmann , today ThyssenKrupp , the largest part of which was located in the Bamenohl area. But the lime industry was also important for almost a century. The limestone deposits in Bamenohl were mined and processed on an industrial scale between the second half of the 19th century and 1958. Today, despite several department stores, retail stores, insurance companies and the iron processing industry, a large part of the population earns their income outside of Bamenohl.

Bamenohl is on the federal highway 236 , about 25 km away the federal highway 45 can be reached via the junction at Olpe. The next train station is Finnentrop on the Ruhr-Sieg route or the Biggetalbahn .

Debate about controversial street names

In the 1960s, two streets in Bamenohl were named after the writers Maria Kahle and Josefa Berens-Totenohl . Because of their proximity to National Socialism, the two street names are controversial. After the Christine Koch dialect archive at the museum in Eslohe took up this problem at the beginning of 2013 on the basis of a contribution by the publicist Peter Bürger , there were street name debates and changes to street names in the Hochsauerland district. In July 2013, the council of the municipality of Finnentrop rejected the renaming of the said streets in Bamenohl after the majority of street residents had spoken out in favor of keeping the name. The council decision was criticized by the theologian Hubertus Halbfas because, as far as he knew , there was no comprehensive explanation of the respondents about the Nazi past of the writers and it was otherwise not acceptable, on the one hand, to the Nazi victim Father Kilian Kirchhoff with a corresponding street name in the Finnentrop district -Rönkhausen and on the other hand to keep street names after Nazi supporters like Maria Kahle and Josefa Berens-Totenohl

After the parties represented in the council of the municipality of Finnentrop did not come to an agreement in the renewed debate, the opinion prevailed among those responsible that renaming the controversial street names to end, also against the background of the recent negative findings about the poets the negative debates is necessary. According to the residents, the new street names should no longer be based on people, but rather neutrally on old districts. Accordingly, the council of the municipality of Finnentrop decided on April 8, 2014 to rename the previous Josefa-Berens-Strasse to "Alte Mark" and the Maria-Kahle-Strasse to "An der Legge".
