Baumberg Aue

Baumberg is a district of Monheim am Rhein , a town in the Mettmann district ( North Rhine-Westphalia ).

history

Baumberg was first mentioned in a document in 1296 as "Boimberg". Settlement cores were courtyards such as Kirberger, Sander-, Verresberger and Hoher Hof. In the Baumberger Aue, also called Urdenbacher Kämpe , is Haus Bürgel , which was built on the remains of a Roman fort from the time of Constantine I (306 to 337).

Up until the 20th century, Baumberg was a village that made a living from Rhine fishing, agriculture, goat breeding and traditional handicrafts such as basket weaving . The eel - smokehouse in Baumberg was from 1857 to 2009 and used fish from their own catch, until the 1960s, the water pollution of the Rhine was too large, and then eels from Northern Europe.

At the end of 1900 the population was around 1,200, the proportion of Catholics was 98 percent.

The communities Monheim and Baumberg joined the goat breeding association of the district of Solingen in November 1902 . The goat, colloquially known as the hip , was the little man's cow . The district promoted goat breeding, particularly in the small and poor rural community of Baumberg. A stand was specially set up on Schallenstrasse.

In 1908 the Baumberg volunteer fire brigade was founded.

In 1929 Baumberg belonged to the newly founded Rhein-Wupper district .

After the Second World War , the municipality had just over 2,000 inhabitants in 1946 and the population began to grow steadily.

Baumberg gave up his independence in 1951 and merged with the neighboring community of Monheim to the south. Baumberg and Monheim today form the town of Monheim am Rhein with a total area of ​​2,312 hectares, Baumberg's share is 612 hectares.

From 1952 to 1956, the Hein Lehmann AG workers' settlement was built.

From 1965 onwards, the increase in the population accelerated considerably through forced housing construction. In 1965 Baumberg had almost 5,000 inhabitants, in 1969 it was over 10,000. In Baumberg-Ost, a new housing estate was built with large multi-storey buildings, but also numerous single-family houses, the so-called Österreichviertel .

Evangelical Peace Church

As a result of the influx, the proportion of Protestant citizens in Baumberg increased, so that in the 1960s it became necessary to build a separate Protestant church for Baumberg, which was popularly known as a bunker due to the architectural design (hence the name of the newspaper that existed since 1975 Protestant parish Baumberg Bunker-Echo ). The concrete building was designed by the Swiss architect Walter Maria Förderer. In the 1980s the Evangelical Church was baptized with the name Friedenskirche .

Allotment garden in Baumberger Feld

In the mid-1980s, the allotment garden in Im Baumberger Feld was created on the border with Düsseldorf-Hellerhof .

In 2002 the Knipprather Busch allotment garden association moved to Loheck in Baumberg, as the original location on the former Henkel landfill was to be renovated.

On 26 September 2004, the club unveiled Boom Berger Hippe Guard in memory of the former goat breeding station of the district Solingen on a traffic island at the confluence of sound street / In the streets, a monument . The bronze sculpture is industrially manufactured and shows a billy goat standing on its hind legs.

Around a third of the 43,000 inhabitants of Monheim lived in the Baumberg district in July 2004.

Catholic community

The Catholic community was mentioned for the first time in 1296, and in 1890 it gained independence as an independent parish with 1,800 believers, the number of which has grown to around 7,000 today.
