geography

Panorama picture Lohausen

Lohausen is located in the north of the city of Düsseldorf and borders the districts of Kaiserswerth and Kalkum in the north, Stockum in the south, Unterrath in the southeast, and Lichtenbroich in the east and belongs to district 5 . The district extends in the northern outer ring from the Rhine with the Rhine border to Meerbusch - Ilverich in the west to the eastern Düsseldorf city limit to Ratingen - Tiefenbroich . With an area of ​​12.42 km² it is the third largest district in terms of area, but with around 4,200 inhabitants it only has a population density of 337 inhabitants per km² (all data as of December 31, 2016). After the southern district of Stockum had to be ceded to Düsseldorf in 1909 , the remaining rural community of Lohausen also lost its self-government to Düsseldorf in 1929. The resulting flight operations had aroused the Düsseldorf desires.

history

Church of St. Mary of the Assumption

Lohausen was first mentioned in a document in 1047 ( Lohuson iuxta Werthe ) on the occasion of the ten-year jubilee of the Werden abbot Gerold. The next message comes from the noble noble family of the lords of Kalkum- Lohausen. Knight Arnold von Lohausen ( Arnoldus miles de Lohusen ) awarded in 1236, together with his wife and children, a tenancy dependent tithe at Eversael to the Abbey Camp on a long lease. In addition to the knight's seat in Lohausen, the lords of Kalkum also owned the knightly seats in Haus Remberg near Huckingen and Haus Leuchtenberg (old name form: Leuchtmar). Lohausen and Leuchtenberg were acquired at the beginning of the 19th century by Heinrich Balthasar Lantz , who had a new manor house built on the foundations of the castle near the Lohausen farm, the Vorwerk, and a large park, the Lantz'schen Park . In 1972 the city acquired the Lantz family property. Considerable parts of the Leuchtenberg house near the Rhine dike and its former Vorwerk , the Nagelshof , are still preserved.

The Church of St. Mary of the Assumption is a sight. The memorial chapel of Count Franz von Spee was built in the neo-Romanesque style in 1839, on Niederrheinstrasse by Rudolf Wiegmann . The house Hannemann is a listed building in the style of conservative modernism.

Other buildings

The residential development in Lohausen is low and very relaxed. The district is characterized by one- and two-family houses as well as villas and agriculture that is still in operation. There is a water protection area along the Rhine. The Rhine dike, which has been in great need of renovation since 2003, is a popular destination for riders and tennis fans, along with the leisure facilities.

Düsseldorf Airport is located in the east of this part of the city, but because of the current traffic route, it no longer has a road connection with the Lohausen residential area and is actually connected to Unterrath today. However, there is a connection for pedestrians and cyclists by means of a bridge over the Danziger Straße, which has been developed as an expressway. Deutsche Lufthansa first flew to the Golzheimer Heide airfield as early as 1927 . Until the Second World War, the access to the former airport buildings in the western part of the airport area was via today's 'Alte Flughafenstrasse'.
