The Hagenberg is a 139.2 meter high mountain in the area of ​​the city of Bad Iburg in Lower Saxony .

location

The Hagenberg is located on the south side of the Teutoburg Forest, east of the Bad Iburger center and the Iburger castle . The next elevation in the east is the Freeden . The Hagenberg is largely populated. On the eastern slope of the old cemetery of the former is patch Iburg. The "Grundschule am Hagenberg" is named after the mountain. It was built as a primary school in 1959 on the north side of the Hagenberg and initially run separately as a Catholic and Protestant primary school. The Ahornweg, an approximately 90-kilometer-long hiking trail in the form of a loop, whose node is in Bad Iburg, leads over the Hagenberg.

history

Landgoding has taken place four times a year on the Hagenberg since the Middle Ages ; the “required thing”, which the gographer called up as needed, met on the square below today's “Klotzbahn”, the access to Iburg Castle . The entire population took part in Landgoding.

The Hagenberg is made of limestone . In the 19th century, the Hagenberg was next to the 206 meter high Langenberg west of Iburg and the Freeden a center of limestone mining in the stain.

Around 1850 Johannes Adolphus Vornbäume began to quarry limestone on the eastern part of Hagenberg, which he processed on site in a lime kiln and delivered to Münster . In 1893 Vornbäum gave up the burning of lime and returned to his original business activity, the cattle trade and slaughterhouse.

In 1854 Wilhelm Tepe built a lime works with a lime kiln in the middle of the mountain, which was supplemented by another kiln in 1871. The company, which Heinrich Tepe had taken over from his father in 1901, continued to grow. Heinrich Tepe had a lime powder plant built in 1911 and the now outdated lime kilns were replaced by new buildings with greater capacity in 1920/1923. A new shaft furnace was also built in 1954. In 1968 lime production was given up when the limestone deposits suitable for mining were exhausted.

The family business Tepe am Hagenberg has been running a hemp and wire rope factory since 1870, initially equipping mines and businesses in the area. It is the fifth generation to manufacture wire ropes.

Three other lime kilns from other operators were located on the western part of Hagenberg, including the Petermöllersche Kalkofen, whose operation was closed in 1878.
