history
The oldest document about the dismantling of the line in the Cederwald dates from September 3, 1765. This is a 24-year lease between the Malteser coming to St. Johann and Cordula in Cologne and Johann Bützler over the new line pit in the Cederwald. On November 22nd, 1766, the Maltesercomende received permission from the Porz Office's winery for her leaseholder Bützler to cut trass in the Cederwald. The waiter's bill of February 6, 1777 shows that the levies in the form of a license fee affected the operation of the lime kilns and the tapping of trass. On October 10, 1839, the Siegen Mining Authority determined that the mine had still not been given a name in the past. Due to Heinrich Fues' request for encouragement for the heirs of Gerhard Jakob Fues on August 29, 1839, it was decided to use the name Cedernwald. On December 18, 1839, Heinrich Fues informed the Bonn Mining Authority that drilling tests had yielded favorable results. After December 21, 1839 field visit by the mountain jury Behner in the presence of Urban Odenthal, Gerhard woods and Heinrich Fues had taken place, which took place investiture of the mining area Cedernwald heirs on 13 March 1840 Heinrich Fues for action GJ Fues. In 1859, the unions of the Cedernwald, Johann Wilhelm and Heidkampsmaaßen mines united to form a joint facility with steam engine operation .
business
An undated overview by Jean Baptiste de Caluwé of the operation of the lime kilns shows that, from 1767 to 1784, trass from the Cederwald was used year after year to operate the lime kilns . In 1803, in connection with the secularization, the Maltese comer had his concession "to break lignite in the cedar forest" withdrawn. No information is available about the further operation.
