Hardt is a district of Dorsten in the Recklinghausen district . It has 7549 inhabitants (as of December 31, 2017) and, together with Feldmark, is the fourth largest of the eleven districts.
location
The Hardt borders immediately to the west of the old town of Dorsten; the border is the Schölzbach and then the Clemens-August-Straße. In the south, the Hardt is bordered by the Kirchhellener Allee against the Feldmark; in the west of Hardter is Östrich, today the border is the A 31 motorway. The Wesel-Datteln Canal is in the north of the district; behind it lies the lip, which also acts as the border to Holsterhausen.
history
The earliest mention of Ganlinga (personal name plus clan suffix in the plural) is in the property register of the Echternach Abbey. Around 900 the noblewoman Athlgard gave the Werden Abbey four courtyards in the Gahlen, Hardt and Östrich districts. Before 1045 or 1075, Dorsten Imeza's last noblewoman (grave in Xanten Cathedral) transferred the Dorsten aristocratic court and the associated courtyards to the Xanten canon monastery; During this time the Hardt belonged to Dorsten ( Averbeck , that is, "over the [Schöls-] bach"). It was not until the 14th century that the Schölsbach formed the border between Kurköln and Kleve and thus between Dorsten and Gahlen-Hardt. In 1552 the community of Gahlen became Lutheran of its own accord. In 1614, in the Treaty of Xanten, the Duchy of Kleve, and with it Gahlen and Hardt, were transferred to Brandenburg-Prussia. In 1815, the mayor's office in Gahlen, with its farmers' groups Beste, Östrich and Hardt, belonged to the Dinslaken district. The law for the reorganization of the Rheinisch-Westfälische industrial area in 1929 struck the Hardt of the city of Dorsten. The Hardtberg and Östrich only became part of the town of Dorsten on January 1st, 1975 due to the municipal reorganization.
coat of arms
|
|
Blazon : "In green a silver (white) sloping strip and a silver (white) sloping strip." |
| Reasons for the coat of arms: The coat of arms symbolizes the location of the place on the Wesel-Datteln Canal and Lippe . The green shield color is reminiscent of the former peasantry from which the district has arisen and as it stands as a symbol of the agriculture and forestry. |
Attractions
One of the most important sights on the Hardt is the Church of the Catholic St. Nicholas Parish , a modern building with a free-standing bell tower. There is also the Evangelical Peace Church here. This church is special in that it belongs to the Gahlen-Hardt parish and is therefore a Rhenish church on Westphalian soil. The construction of the St. Elisabeth Hospital on the former grounds of the hospital courtyard in its current form, which belongs to the Catholic Clinic Ruhr Area North, began in 1985. It was moved into in 1989. In the vicinity of the Dorsten-Hardt rowing club on the canal, the Kohlhaus stood until 1972, which marked the end of “ Gahlenschen Strasse ”. Today there is a 4.10 m high stele made of steel and coal by the artist Hermann J. Kassel , which is supposed to remind of the long history of this place.
education
On the Hardt there is a primary school (Pestalozzi school), a secondary school (Geschwister-Scholl-Schule) and the private secondary school St. Ursula.

The most important club in the Hardt district is SV Dorsten-Hardt. There is also a shooting club and the Dorsten-Hardt general public shooting club.
