history

First mentioned in 1190

The name Günne is probably derived from Gunethe (grant, turn, be gracious). Günne was first mentioned in a document in 1190. In a document from 1245 Count Gottfried III confirmed. von Arnsberg the sale of the Osthof by the nobles von Itter to the Benninghausen monastery ; where in this document the place Gunethe is mentioned. In a document of 1263, Count Gottfried, two to build committed to Wöllnern of Soest Walke mills on the Möhne . A Godefridus scultetus in Gunedhe is named as a witness in this document . It is referred to as villicus de Guneden again in 1275. The Schulzenhof in Günne was table good from the Electorate of Cologne ; Stephan Schulte to Günne became hereditary with the Kameralgut Günne 1667 bemeiert .

In a copy of the Paderborn goods list from the 13th century it says:

These are the goods that the Lord Philip, Archbishop, acquired for the Cologne Church

According to Westphalian regional historical research, this Paderborn goods list can be traced back to a computatio (medieval calculation) from 1190. At that time, a predecessor of the aforementioned archbishop acquired Gunnethe from the Count of Arnsberg, among others. With the acquisition of Gunnethe, the later Günne, and numerous other acquisitions of goods, Archbishop Philipp von Heinsberg decisively expanded his feudal sovereignty in southern Westphalia. The archbishop also held the secular title of Duke of Westphalia and, after disputes with the Counts of Arnsberg, established his own sovereignty. Günne remained tied to this state rule of a spiritual lord until the end of the Old Kingdom (1803). The name of the settlement Gunethe, as it was listed in the aforementioned goods acquisition lists, was changed to Günne in later centuries. According to the results of historical research, Günne means a field, corridor, place that has been awarded, granted, granted.

Written sources from the 13th century tell of the Schultenhof as a Cologne table good and of a fulling mill in the Möhnetal. After 1532, the Reformation belief hardly penetrated from the nearby Protestant county of Mark and from Soest across the border between Deiringsen and Theiningsen into the Sauerland in Cologne. Around the middle of the 16th century, 25 farmsteads were used for the valuation tax. The “wealth” of the Günner residents, as the Günner are called in the files, is less the result of arable farming on the karst soils than the use of the Arnsberg Forest south of the Möhne. Here the residents in the almost 2000 acre forest area of ​​the Günner Mark procured their firewood and construction wood, here they fattened their pigs in autumn under the oaks, here they fought for the fields.

19th century

At the beginning of the 19th century, the general property tax was introduced in Westphalia under French influence.

Basic map original cadastre

Due to a cabinet order of the king of July 26th, 1820 the basis for the measurement of the parcels and the determination of the yield was created. The tax municipality Günne of the office Körbecke in the administrative district Arnsberg was surveyed in 1828. The soil is classified according to creditworthiness and usage. The basic cadastre for Günne comprises three corridor areas.

• Corridor I called Brüningsen parcels 1 - 71
• Corridor II called Weltenberg parcels 1 - 86
• Hall III called Günne Plots 1 - 322

A base map assigned to the original cadastre shows the settlement around 1829. The location of the properties and houses with the owners at that time is shown on land map 6 for Günne and on land map 7 for Brüningsen.

On August 12, 1853, 31 men and a wife (accompanied by their husband) from Günne and Brüningsen founded the Hudegenossenschaft. It - as it is handwritten under No. 179 of the register for 1853 - appeared before the lawyer and notary in the district of the royal Prussian court of appeal in Hamm, Hermann Joseph Hehse, resident in Soest.

The teacher Ferdinand Grewe from Günne was present as a participant in credible personal details. The majority of those who appeared were “farmers”, “farm owners”, “innkeepers” and “day laborers” from Günne and Brüningsen. The notary has stated that the parties appointed three people from among their number to carry out the necessary business.

• Host Andreas Jürgens gt. Wiethoff
• Host Christian Grothe
• Farmer Johannes Stütting gnt. Cutter,

These persons had extensive powers for future common property. They could buy land, hire a lender, sign a contract with a forester. A community was created in the form of a cooperative through the initiative of the village population. A necessary contribution to the mostly poor livelihood was created through livestock farming on a communal shack. This community survived difficult times and was only dissolved after 110 years. In the years after the First World War - around 1921 - the need for a new legal regulation arose. From February 19, 1929, the Hude property became the property of the municipality of Günne-Brüningsen. The previous sole owners were entitled to the uplift. If the sole site is sold, the right of the lift should go to the new owner. However, if the old owner builds a new house in the parish, he keeps the right. The new owner is then treated like a newcomer and has to be granted a right by those entitled to it and the municipality. Those entitled to hud also had the right to raise cows and goats. Up to 1921, 137 cows and 39 goats were permitted for 39 sole sites of the old beneficiaries. The majority of the Sohlstätten was able to raise 2, 3 and 4 cows and a smaller number of 5, 6 and 8 cows. A sole had the right for 12 cows. There were also 1 to 2 goats. From the 1950s onwards, livestock farming in Günne decreased steadily. At first individual, then gradually more and more Sohlstätten gave up cattle farming. A process for the division of the Hude was set in motion. Due to the high demand for building land, a new settlement should also be built on the Hude land. After a value class determination, the Hude was divided into building land, arable land and green areas. The sole site owners were given either building land or arable land or grassland according to a value and share key. On June 1, 1963, the apportionment procedure came into force; in the same year the plots in the land register were rewritten. To commemorate this time of the Hudegenossenschaft, a group of figures "The Günner Heuer" was set up in 1999 on the village square in Günne. At this point the employed Heuer had collected the herd of cattle twice a day in the summer months - in the morning from 6:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and in the afternoon from 2:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. - to drive them to the herd.

20th century

The industrial development on the Ruhr meant that Günne became known at the beginning of the 20th century for the construction of the Möhne dam . The water requirements of small industry and later also of the rapidly expanding large industry on the Ruhr required increased efforts to meet this demand. With the rapid development of industry, the cities along the Ruhr began to grow rapidly. Big cities emerged from the smallest villages. The groundwater was no longer sufficient to meet the demand for water. While water was mostly available in abundance in spring due to the snowmelt, the streams and rivers often fell dry in the summer months. In order to be able to provide enough water for the summer months, a few smaller dams were built first. When an exceptional dry period made the lack of water threateningly perceptible, the construction of larger dams was considered. On April 15, 1899 the Ruhrtalsperrenverein - RTV - was founded in Essen. One of his most urgent tasks was the promotion of dam construction. From around 1905, the calculations about the increasing demand for water had to be corrected again. The RTV decided to build its own dams. The geological investigations at various locations in the Sauerland led to the result that an overflow of the Möhne and Hevetales could form a large reservoir. The Möhne reservoir was to be built at the confluence of the Möhne and Heve rivers in Günne. The construction work required a large number of skilled workers from all professions. In Günne rooms were rented to the workers. Craftsmen from the village worked with hired bricklayers and carpenters from all over Europe. In particular, workers were recruited from Italy and the areas around Trieste. Despite the good earnings, Günne did not achieve the desired prosperity. The strangers withdrew after the barrier wall was completed. Few families from this period settled in the village. The work on the construction site was tough, as the pictures show. The breaks to take meals also took place on the side of the road.

The RTV had set a deadline for the construction company to complete the dam, October 31, 1913. The barrier was completed on October 14, 1912, one year before the scheduled completion. On December 31, 1912, the RTV took over the Möhnetalsperre and on July 12, 1913 the official inauguration took place. The announced visit of the German emperor, who made the construction possible through a cabinet order, did not take place.

The road to modernity led the building of Möhnestrasse Belecke-Neheim in 1854 and the opening of the Ruhr-Lippe-Kleinbahn Niederense-Himmelpforten-Günne-Möhnetalsperre in 1907. Stones for the construction of the barrier wall from the Röhrtal and wood for the tunnels in the Ruhr area could now be easily transported. In six inns and two private guest houses, the Günner served and accommodated the day trippers to the Möhne reservoir.

The First World War suddenly interrupted the development of the village. 24 men lost their lives. The post-war period, the 1920s and 1930s and National Socialism had an impact on village life in Günne.

politics

From the end of the Second World War in 1945 to July 1, 1969, the citizens of Günner elected their community representatives in seven election periods. The municipality of Günne had three mayors during this time.

• 1945–1947: Eberhard Hershoff
• 1947–1955: Franz Rocholl
• 1955–1969: Hubert Belke

On July 1, 1969, Günne was incorporated into the municipality of Möhnesee. After that there were only mayors:

• 1969–1975: Hubert Belke (mayor and mayor of the Möhnesee community)
• 1975–1979: Eberhard Schulte-Günne
• 1979–1989: Hans Alteköster
• 1989–2014: Karl-Heinz Wilmes
• since 2014: Egbert Nölle

societies

There is a lively and active club life in the village, which is run by the following organizations: Voluntary Fire Brigade Möhnesee Lz Günne, Fanfarenzug Möhnesee, Choral Association St. Antonius Günne 1902, Günner Carnival Association, Beekeeping Association Günne, Catholic Workers Movement, Catholic Women in Germany, Naturefriends Möhnesee, Ensemble Vocalitas (formerly the Günne project choir), St. Antonius Günne shooting association, Günne games and sports club.

particularities

The old mill building is now used as a landscape information center (Liz) for water and forest.

The holiday and education center (home folk high school) of the Catholic workers' movement " Heinrich-Lübke -Haus" is located in Günne . There is also the “LIZ - Das Landschafts-Informationszentrum Wasser und Wald Möhnesee e. V. “(formerly Schulte-Günnische Mühle, then Schade - also called Schadische Mühle -), there is an exhibition on the topics of the Möhneseesee and the Arnsberg Forest Nature Park .

The listed Antonius Church is also worth seeing .

Schützenbruderschaft / Schützenhalle

The rifle brotherhood was first mentioned in 1754. 1860 was probably celebrated under the tent / tents. The documents about it got lost in the course of the Möhne disaster . Built in 1921, the Schützenhalle stood on the current (northern) parking lot of the sports field. Today's Schützenhalle was built in 1952 and expanded in 2001.

Sports field / play and sports club

Together with von Günne's teacher at the time, Josef Deppe, who provisionally headed the club until the first general meeting, Johannes Behrens founded a football department on November 12, 1926 and a gymnastics department on December 2, 1926. From these two departments the game and sports club Günne emerged.

In the years 1961 to 1964, the sports grounds were further expanded by the association's own contributions and with the support of the community. Changing rooms, an apartment, the swimming pool, a children's playground and a parking lot were created. The sports field received training lighting, which was replaced by today's floodlights in 1981. In 1976 the training ground was created, which was later enlarged and also provided with a floodlight system. In the following years, a large number of further modernizations and changes on and around the sports grounds were carried out through own work.

primary school

The old building, built in 1909, is a listed building and used to contain three classrooms and two teacher's apartments.

The new building dates from 2002/2003. The gym was built in the 1970s.

kindergarten

A kindergarten was supposed to be built before the Second World War, but this was prevented. In 1950 a Catholic kindergarten was established, which was once run by the Vincentians.

graveyard

There has been a cemetery since the 1920s. When Günne did not have its own parish, the dead were brought to Körbecke . That is why the Westricher Weg, which the mourners walked, is also called the Totenweg .
