history

St. Anna chapel, forester's house Dahm

After the noblemen of Bilstein died out in 1363 without heirs in the male line, Count Engelbert III moved. von der Mark took over the rule of Bilstein as a settled fiefdom, but without the cities of Drolshagen , Olpe and Attendorn as well as the manors on the lower Lenne and the goods of the bailiffs of Elspe . The new boundary of the Bilstein rule led from above Schnellenberg Castle , the Leimer Seiffen down to the Bigge , this along the Dähmer fields and along the Ahausen Castle to the Ahauser Bridge. Accordingly, the Dahm court was on the Bilsteiner side, Ahausen Castle on the Attendorn-Elsper side; the Bigge river formed the new "national border". The associated Landwehr or remnants of it can still be found today in sections of the Leimer Seiffen and on the steep bank above the Ahaus reservoir.
