Bandorf

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bandorf lies in a valley between Birgel and Unkelbach . The place belongs to the Remagen district of Oberwinter . Even the Romans seem to have recognized the advantages of the Bandorf valley; time and again there were corresponding archaeological finds. The Mithras altar and a Jupiter head , both of which are in the Rheinisches Landesmuseum Bonn , should be mentioned here.

history

Tithe tower

Bandorf was first mentioned in a document on September 7, 1054 in a deed of gift from the Polish king's widow Richeza , who belonged to the Otton family . In 1276, the Lords of Bandorf were first mentioned in the form of Baggerdorp . In 1318 Bandorf was given to the Count of Landskron as a fief together with Oberwinter and Birgel .

The landmark of Bandorf is the Zehnthof , built in the 17th century , which presumably stood on Roman foundations. It was originally about 30 meters high. The number 1657 can be seen on the south side. Here are the duties of the rural population, who were tenth , for the manorial collected. In 1973 the Zehnhof was extensively renovated.

Bandorf was never its own parish; at the beginning of the 14th century it belonged to the parish Birgel and then to the parish Oberwinter. The population of Bandorf rose from 55 people in 1850 to 184 people in 1900. For a long time, the community was structured agrarian; around 1950 there were still 15 farmers in the area. As of December 31, 2010, Bandorf had 406 households with 747 residents.
