history

In the early days in the years after the Franco-German War was on a farmyard in the village center of Northen the brandy - distiller founded sheaves. In the neighboring village of Ditterke there had been a distillery on the local Garben farm since 1766.

The Northen distillery was shut down in the 1910s. The striking distillery chimney was demolished in the 1930s. Towards the end of the Second World War , on April 10, 1945, during the advance of the US troops , fierce fighting, including the use of artillery, broke out around the ordered "nest of resistance in Northen". The distillery barn burned down completely.

The community Northen bought the property in 1950/51. With the exception of the residential building , all remaining buildings were demolished. A teacher's house was built on the former distillery site and in 1954 the new school on Brunnenstrasse was built . After the school closed, the school building served as a kindergarten from 1974 and now as a day-care center with a children's playground . At the end of the 1970s, the preserved old building on Brennereiweg was converted into a fire station .

The building was erected as a residential building in the second half of the 19th century. It is a two-story timber -framed building, filled with red bricks, on an almost square floor plan with a low upper floor under a hipped roof .

The ground floor of this so-called parish hall was converted into the new fire station of the Northen volunteer fire brigade in the middle of 1979 by adding a vehicle hall and setting up a training room.

The rooms of the apartment on the upper floor, which were initially rented to socially disadvantaged families, were converted into the Northen Dorfstube in 2009 . The approximately 30 m² room should provide space for the village archive, meetings and smaller events. The Dorfstube is one of the two wedding rooms in the town of Gehrden in Northen , the other is in the town hall.

The city of Gehrden, as the building owner, had the facade renovated in 2009 and a new entrance to the building created in the outdoor area.
