history

Honnschaft Bertenau

Wonderfully country belonged Bertenau earlier to Electorate of Cologne . The place gave its name to the " Honnschaft Bertenau", which belonged to the parish of Neustadt and was under the administration of the Electoral Cologne Office of Altenwied , which was established in the middle of the 13th century . In 1670 the towns of Bertenau, Neustadt, Altehütte (left of the brook), Borscheid, Dasbach, Eilenberg, Fernthal, Funkenhausen, Grübel, Hombach, Hombachsmühle, Jungfernhof and Manroth belonged to the Honnschaft; later also the places Mettelshahn, Neschen and Steinshof.

By order of the Elector Maximilian Heinrich , an inventory of the settlements in all honnships in the Altenwied office was carried out in 1660. The following were named for the Honnschaft Bertenau:

In Neustadt there were court ranks: Mandtenhaus, Witumshof, Hermanns Kuck Obrist-Haus, Philipps-Haus as well as the Arendt- and Ludwigs-Hof. At Eilenberg there was Thonei's house, the Ralshof and the Vollges Hof. In addition, the Hof zu Manrodt, the Hof zu Berthenau, the Obrist Hof zu Berthenau, the Hof zu Dörres and the Jufferhof (Jungfernhof) existed in this monastery. At Boscheidt (Borscheid) there were seven courtyards, at Verenthal (Fernthal), Funkenhausen, Grüffel (Grübelsberg) and Hambuch (Hombach) there was one courtyard each, in Neschen there were two courtyards and in Dasbach three.

Bertenau community

The rule of Kurköln ended in 1803 after more than 500 years with the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss . The Electorate of Cologne area in this region was initially the Wied-Runkel assigned and came in 1806 due to the Act of Confederation, the Duchy of Nassau . The Honnschaft Bertenau was then subordinate to the administration of the Nassau office of Altenwied . After the treaties concluded at the Congress of Vienna , the area was ceded to the Kingdom of Prussia in 1815 .

Bertenau was a municipality in the then newly formed civil registry district Neuwied (from 1848 district Neuwied ) in the administrative district of Koblenz and administered by the Neustadt mayor . According to a census from 1885, the community of Bertenau with its 19 districts had 752 inhabitants who lived in 151 residential buildings. The localities of Altehütte, Bertenau, Borscheid, Dasbach, Eilenberg, Fernthal, Funkenhausen, Grübelsberg, Grübelshof, Hombach, Hombachsmühle, Jungfernhof, Manroth, Mettelshahn, Neschen, Neschermühle, Neustadt, Steinshof and Telegraf belong to the municipality of Bertenau.

The municipality of Bertenau was renamed Neustadt (Wied) in 1953, but initially remained unchanged in terms of the localities belonging to it. Due to the Rhineland-Palatinate administrative and territorial reform that began in the mid-1960s, the municipality with its last 2,090 inhabitants was dissolved on January 1, 1969. From it, together with the also dissolved municipalities of Bühlingen (915 inhabitants), Elsrachthal (802 inhabitants) and Rahms (999 inhabitants), today's local municipality Neustadt (Wied) was re-formed. In 1987 Bertenau had 41 inhabitants.
