Bliesheim

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bliesheim is a south-eastern district of Erftstadt in the Rhein-Erft district in North Rhine-Westphalia .

The Erft in Bliesheim

location

The place is between Erftstadt- Liblar and Weilerswist southwest of the Ville an der Erft . The motorway junction Bliesheim of the A 553 , A 61 and A 1 is located south of Bliesheim . The next junction is Erftstadt on the A 1 / A 61 .

history

Pre-Roman and Roman times

The first traces of settlement point back far into prehistoric times. Next to the route of the motorway, fragments were recovered from a darkly discolored area of ​​the ground, which could be assigned to the linear ceramic tape . A circular moat discovered at the southern exit of Bliesheim and several barrows on the boundary of Liblar point to the Latène period .

Linguistic research assumes that the name Blisna, as Bliesheim was referred to in the first written sources, denotes a pre-Roman settlement, which is derived from a water body designation "shiny water".

The foundations of a Roman manor, a villa rustica , in the area of ​​today's old cemetery as well as other buildings, ceramic remains, bricks and Roman coins from the 3rd and 4th centuries refer to a larger settlement in Roman times . A Roman burial ground with cremation graves was at the southern exit of the village.

middle Ages

Franconian time

In Franconian times, a Fronhof was built near the abandoned Villa rustica . The residents buried their dead in row graves outside the settlement on a hill east of the Erft.

In the 6th century at the latest, the burial ground was given up and the dead buried in a newly laid out cemetery next to the Fronhof, where a small church for the courtiers was also built in the area of ​​the former Roman villa.

Acquisitions by the St. Mariengraden Abbey

The village of Bliesheim developed around the Fronhof and the church. It was first mentioned in 1059 in a deed of donation of the possessions of the Archbishop of Cologne Annos to the St. Mariengraden Monastery in Cologne, confirmed by Pope Nicholas II .

The St. Mariengraden Abbey continuously expanded its property in Bliesheim to become a subordinate . Around 1260 it acquired the Fronhof and the mill from knight Gerhard Kolf von Ahrweiler, then, with the consent of Archbishop Konrad von Hochstaden , it acquired the bailiwick from Count Wilhelm von Jülich with all court rights, high and low jurisdiction. Through an exchange of goods with Archbishop Heinrich von Virneburg , the monastery acquired the tithing rights of the Archbishop in Bliesheim and the right of patronage for the Bliesheim church.

The parish "Blisne", mentioned around 1155 in a manuscript of the Deutz Abbey , the codex theodorici, and the church in Bliesheim, mentioned in a directory of all parish churches of the Archdiocese of Cologne and their income, the Liber valoris , in 1308, was in the possession of the archbishop until 1328.

The subordination of the Mariengraden Abbey

Land map of Mariengraden Abbey

After these acquisitions, the St. Mariengraden Abbey owned Bliesheim as a subordinate. After the farm, which the canon Johann Stolle had acquired from Wilhelm von Buschfeld in 1403, came into the possession of Mariengraden through his will and the monastery succeeded in buying back the feudal farm in Muschenbach (lost place) in 1489, there was no other important aristocratic property more in Bliesheim. Of the possessions of the pen Marie degrees in Eylau, a forest and heath area between Bliesheim and Lechenich, a part was to the Lechenicher and Ahremer citizens in perpetual lease granted as pasture, which for a wheat tax, the so-called bush wheat paid.

Limits of subordinate rule The limits of subordinate rule were recorded in 1405 and renewed in 1489 after a border inspection, called an escort. In the centuries that followed, the canons and the residents of Bliesheim took part in accompanying visits, during which the borders were confirmed by representatives of the neighboring communities and recorded by a notary.

Administration and jurisprudence The rights of the St. Mariengraden Abbey in its subordinate rule Bliesheim were protected by an “bailiff”. The first known bailiff was Konstantin vom Horne, canon at St. Mariengraden, who in 1357 led the negotiations in a legal dispute with Johann von Buschfeld.

Since the 15th century, members of the local knighthood took over the office, including Godart Wolff von Rheindorf, who was both mayor and tenant of the Fronhof. In the 16th century the mayor's office was separated from that of the bailiff. Family members of Wolff Metternich zur Gracht have repeatedly held the office of the bailiff.

Fronhof The center of the subordinate rule was the castle-like courtyard surrounded by moats, which also included a prison tower.

In the Fronhof, the court with mayor and lay judges exercised high and low jurisdiction. Crimes large and small were convicted there and in some cases the death penalty was imposed. Smaller offenses were usually violations of the applicable legal provisions, such as unauthorized fetching of wood, theft of grass, grain, gardening, careless handling of fire, disputes with fights, which were punished with a fines.

Real estate matters were negotiated before the court court, on which the owners of the court estates appeared as court jury members and, if necessary, paid a Kurmut when new court estates were awarded . The mayor and lay judges negotiated disputed claims, notarized and sealed inheritance divisions, land sales, bonds, pension income and foundations and had copies of the documents recorded in the lay judges' book.

The rights of the pin and the obligations of the residents were in a Weistum recorded, which was presented three times a year to the Hofgerichtstagen the residents. So the half of the Fronhof was obliged to keep the breeding cattle. The inhabitants were subject to the mill compulsion, that is, they were obliged to have their grain milled on the mill of the monastery. On the court days, millers and innkeepers had to appear at the Fronhof to have their measurements checked.

Modern times

Villagers In a survey of the property in Bliesheim carried out on the order of the elector in 1660 and the subsequent tax assessment in 1664, two large farms owned by Mariengraden were recorded. The villagers, about 80 families, lived mainly from agriculture. The day laborers also cultivate a few small plots of land. The income from agricultural labor was reduced by the poor quality of the soil, land lease payments, tithe payments, crop damage and other taxes such as chicken levy, wax deliveries to the church and sovereign taxes.

Administration and court In the 17th century, trained lawyers appeared at high court hearings. So two lay judges of the High Secular Court in Cologne led the witch trials , which took place from 1629 to 1632 on the Fronhof. The witch trials, which for the most part had their origins in village disputes, neighborly accusations and denunciations , ended mostly with death sentences and subsequent executions , in which the Cologne lay judges, the "commissioners", were significantly involved.

The respective Friesheim mayor, a lawyer, had presided over the court since the middle of the 18th century.

Wars and fires Like those of the other towns in Erftstadt, the inhabitants of the subordinate Bliesheim suffered great damage from numerous marches through troops and arson. Many of the houses destroyed in the Dutch War of Independence in 1591 had not yet been rebuilt when a tax assessment was made in 1601.

In the so-called " Hessian War ", part of the Thirty Years' War , numerous houses were burned again after the siege of Lechenich, also when the French allies of Cologne Elector Maximilian Heinrich of Bavaria and his coadjutor Wilhelm Egon von Fürstenberg-Heiligenberg withdrew .

The residents had to borrow money several times and provide a guarantee with their property, for example in 1644, in order to meet the required payments by the Hessian troops in Neuss and thus avert the threatened pillage and the kidnapping of citizens. In the wars of the French king Louis XIV. Bliesheim suffered from billeting and Fouragelieferungen . Borrowings were necessary in 1674 because of demands for contributions from the imperial troops, in 1676 because of demands from French troops and to redeem a kidnapped Bliesheimer.

French time

In the first years after the French troops marched into Bliesheim in 1794, the revolutionary army demanded contributions, manual and clamping services as well as deliveries of forage. A village fire in 1790 and a flood of the Erft in 1795 had caused such damage that the impoverished residents were unable to provide the required supplies for the French army.

This burden was ended by the Peace of Campo Formio in 1797. In 1798 the administration and the legal system were redesigned based on the French model. The old territories and thus also the subordination of the St. Mariengraden Abbey in Bliesheim with their judicial rights were abolished. The jurisdiction of the courts was restructured and the small legal cases of Bliesheim were assigned to the peace court in Lechenich.

When the administration changed in 1800 under Napoleon , Bliesheim became a municipality in the Mairie Liblar in the canton of Lechenich . Buschfeld was assigned to the community of Bliesheim.

With the Treaty of Lunéville in February 1801, the left bank of the Rhine became part of France.

In 1801 Bliesheim had 604 inhabitants, 160 of them children. 32 people lived in Buschfeld. 43 farmers worked in small family businesses, three tenants ran the large farms in Bliesheim and Buschfeld. Almost half of the 70 working-class families had moved here in recent years. Some traders, including a Jewish trader, covered daily needs.

In 1802, after the Concordat concluded in 1801 between Napoléon Bonaparte and Pope Pius VII, monasteries and monasteries were abolished, their property expropriated and auctioned in the following years. In Bliesheim, as a result of the secularization of the Mariengraden Abbey, the following properties in Aachen were auctioned and sold: the mill in 1806, the Fronhof and the Kallenhof in 1807. The goods of other religious institutions in the area were also sold.

Prussian time

By the Prussian authorities, the previous Mairien were continued as mayor's offices and from 1927 under the name of Amt . Bliesheim belonged to the mayor's office in Liblar in the Lechenich district and, after 1827, to the Euskirchen district .

Donatus briquette factory

Lignite mining The 19th century brought significant changes for the place, which up until then had been agricultural. The influx of many workers who found employment in lignite mining began at the beginning of the century. It was reinforced by the intensified mining of lignite and its industrial processing in briquette factories at the end of the 19th century. The Donatus mine , which began operations in 1889, was of particular importance to Bliesheim . A large part of the population found work here, but agriculture continued as a sideline for personal needs.

Infrastructure The improvement of the infrastructure began in 1857 with the expansion of the Bliesheim - Buschfeld - Liblar road. The infrastructure was further expanded during the imperial era . In 1909 the place was connected to the public water supply, in 1910 the paving of the main street followed, also in 1910 the connection to the electricity network. A postal agency existed as early as 1899, a telegraph company since 1900. The first telephones in Bliesheim were registered in 1912.

School system

Erich Kästner Elementary School

In the 17th and 18th centuries, the sexton was also responsible for teaching children, a practice that continued under French administration. This was initially the sexton teacher who had taken over from the time of the elector, whose son took on this task after the death of his father in 1806. He received his training by completing a course at the "College" established in Brühl.

A survey carried out in 1814 showed that of 143 children in Bliesheim only about half attended school during the winter months. The school was closed in the summer.

After the introduction of compulsory schooling in 1825, the Prussian government assigned the Bliesheim pupils to the Liblar school, but after a few years the town was given back the right to its own school, so that from 1827 teaching was carried out on site. This first happened in the hall of an inn and in 1834 a new school building could be moved into. The lessons now took place both in summer and in winter, given by the previous teacher who was now permanently employed. Even if only half of the school-age children attended classes, the increased number of pupils meant that another classroom had to be built, which could be used from 1853.

The limited space for a number of school children, which had grown to 67 boys and 88 girls, almost all of whom attended class, made a larger new building necessary.

The red brick school building, erected in 1885, was designed by the district architect Müller-Deutz. Due to the increased number of pupils, the school building received another extension in 1930.

Saint Lambertus

New construction of the church The former parish church of Bliesheim on today's cemetery had become dilapidated and did not offer enough space for the growing community. However, a planned new building was repeatedly delayed for financial reasons. The wooden spire , threatened by collapse, had already been torn down to the masonry in 1827. After parts of the ceiling of the nave collapsed, a new building could not be delayed any further. The ashlar stones uncovered when the old church was demolished in 1863 refer to a previous building in Carolingian times, as Peter Anton Tholen discovered during an investigation into the processing of these stones.

The community decided to commission a larger church building according to plans by the Cologne master builder Robert Ferdinand Cremer , the location of which was relocated to the center of the village. The future location was filled with earth so that the church would tower over the village in an elevated position. The hill created in this way was intercepted by an enclosure wall.

The building was built in the years 1860 to 1863 with an imagined 54 meter high west tower and was consecrated to St. Lambertus in 1866. Built in brick three-nave church was a pillar basilica without transept designed and received a crossing ridge vault . According to the master builder's plans, St. Lambertus in Bliesheim was reminiscent of the Romanesque basilicas of the 12th century and was the first large church building in the region to be built in the neo-Romanesque style.

Weimar period

The post-war period brought Bliesheim advances in economic and social areas. In the first years of the so-called Weimar Republic, a new settlement was built on the outskirts in the direction of Weilerswist, which was built for the employees of the Donatus mine in the style of the newly emerging garden cities .

Another step forward was the cooperative “Vegetable and Fruit Growing Association Untere Erft” founded towards the end of the “Weimar Period” (1931). The farmers in Bliesheim and the surrounding area found a central one in the “wholesale market for fruit, vegetables and potatoes” operated by them Sales market for their products to wholesalers.

With regard to health care, an initiative by Pastor Stephan Pflugfelder caused the Schoenstatt Sisters of Mary of the Gymnich Father Josef Kentenich, founded in 1926 , to settle in Bliesheim as one of the first branches to devote themselves to outpatient nursing. In 1931 they moved into a newly constructed building that was designed by the Cologne architect Hans Peter Fischer.

In this building, the Marienheim, they set up Bliesheim's first kindergarten. In 2012, the community's commitment was given up due to a lack of young talent. The building is being sold.

time of the nationalsocialism

The NSDAP found few supporters in the traditionally Catholic community with a long center tradition . Some of the patriotically-minded citizens who had not got over the collapse of the Empire and the consequences of the Versailles Treaty , however, elected the National Socialists in 1933, who received 18% of the votes in town.

For the time being, some streets were renamed. The market square, which arose after an old farm was torn down, became Adolf-Hitler-Platz, and Feldstrasse (today's Lambertusstrasse) was renamed Horst-Wessel-Strasse. The previous community leader was replaced by a party member. Eventually, however, most of the residents accepted the new government's measures.

During the Second World War, Bliesheim was largely spared from destruction. With the arrival of the Americans on March 4, 1945, the war ended for the town, but many of the men drafted for military service did not return.

Changes after World War II

The municipality of Bliesheim remained part of the Liblar office until its dissolution through the municipal administrative reform and the formation of the city of Erftstadt on July 1, 1969.

New development areas, new schools and erft regulation

In the first post-war years, outside the old town center on the left of the Erft, beyond Erft and Liblarer Mühlenbach, community halls were built as apartment buildings to accommodate the large numbers of expellees who had moved here . Some of these new residents bought one of the reasonably priced plots for building their own home on the Langen Heide on the Villehang .

The new development area Lange Heide developed into a popular place to live. Due to its elevated location with a panoramic view, its convenient location due to the connection to the Eifelbahn (Cologne -) Hürth-Kalscheuren - Trier via the Liblar train station (today: Erftstadt ), many Cologne citizens or residents from the surrounding areas were also in the 1960s of the Rhenish lignite mining area to new citizens.

The previous classroom was insufficient for the large number of students. In 1958 a new building with a teaching pool was built. Jakob Riffeler created a wall mosaic made of colored tiles for the staircase .

Until the Erft was regulated, the lower areas of Bliesheim were affected by the floods that occurred at regular intervals and caused considerable damage. The expansion of the Erftbett in the 1960s defused the risk of flooding.

Change in employment and economy With the closure of the Donatus briquette factory in 1959, an important employer for the population of Bliesheim ceased to exist.

In 1967 the "auction" of the "Landwarengenossenschaft Untere Erft" was stopped, but the sale of other products such as fertilizers and heating oil continued.

In 2003 the Bliesheim headquarters of the “Buir-Bliesheimer Agrargenossenschaft”, which had moved its headquarters to Nörvenich, was closed.

Due to the end of lignite mining and the changes in agriculture, employment changed.

Most of the working people today work outside the town, mainly in the nearby city ​​of Cologne or in its periphery .

Population development In the last two centuries Bliesheim developed into a street village with a population of around 600 in 1801 to 1212 in 1900. With 2425 inhabitants in 1956, the population had doubled, the number of which in 1969 was 3048.

Club life Like many local communities in Erftstadt, the people of Bliesheim maintain a lively club life that has been handed down from ancient times. The oldest of these associations, to which young and old people alike, are:

  • The men's choir from 1868
  • The St. Sebastianus Shooting Society from 1870, since 1948 the Bliesheim 1405 e. V.
  • The Ballspielclub Bliesheim 1927 e. V. (BC Bliesheim) with several departments (football, youth, table tennis)

Almost all clubs and interest groups are united in the Bliesheim village community and offer a variety of social and cultural events as well as a wide range of sports.

Today's townscape

Lambertus Church

Like the majority of the Erftstadt districts, Bliesheim also has a large number of well-preserved architectural monuments , the origin of which goes back to the 18th century. These include the Fronhof, the mill and the forge. Other listed houses and courtyards as well as the parish church of the village were built in the 19th century.

The Erft flows between the old district, which has retained its village character, and the new development area on the Villehang. On its banks, as part of the regulation of the river bed, a wide strip of green was created in view of rising water levels.

General facilities The most necessary medical care on site is provided by a pharmacy, doctors' offices and the nearby hospital in the Frauenthal district . There are bank branches and a few smaller shops on site, larger purchases can be made in the Erftstadtcenter, two kilometers away.

Bliesheim is well connected to the regional transport network. The county road 45 and the country roads 163 and 263 as well as the bus route 920 connect the place with the neighboring places.

The local elementary school, which was retained after the school reform of 1968, teaches elementary school students from Bliesheim and Blessem. Classes take place in the old school building and an extension from 1958 with additions from 2000 and 2007.

On March 31, 2018, Bliesheim had 3,400 residents, who were represented on the city council by Mayor Norbert Vianden (CDU) from April 26, 2015, who died in a car accident in July 2017. His successor was Frank Jüssen.

Lauerbusch

The Lauerbusch is an 8.3 hectare forest in Bliesheim. It served as an ammunition store for the German Wehrmacht during World War II . Around 1940 18 buildings were erected there, which were used as apartments for refugees after the end of the war. Since at least four fatal accidents occurred as a result of the residual ammunition stored, the apartments were vacated in 1969 and later demolished. In 1988 the Lauerbusch was placed under nature protection.

Personalities

The best-known Bliesheimer (with an international reputation) is the composer Bernd Alois Zimmermann (1918–1970). A Bliesheimer Straße has been named after him (east of the L 163, between Rotdornweg and Am Wachberg).
