Hamm-Bockum-Hövel is a district of the independent city of Hamm , which was formed from the former city of Bockum-Hövel and the northern districts of the old city of Hamm. The district has 35,540 inhabitants (as of December 31, 2017) and covers an area of ​​32.68 km² (for comparison: City of Hamm 226.25 km²). The population density is 1088 inhabitants per km².

Geographical location

Today's Hamm-Bockum-Hövel district is located north of the Lippe tributary to the Rhine . It is part of both the Münsterland and the Ruhr area . The eastern border of the city district runs from the Lippe to the west of the Münster – Hamm railway line . Shortly before it is passed over the Geinegge , the border separates from the railway line and runs east over the Kötterberg to the Geinegge road. From there it follows the course of the Geinegge and the Krähenbusch to the B63 . The western edge of the B63 - Münsterstraße - forms the further course of the district border to the north. Furthermore, the district boundary is congruent with the Hammer city boundary.

The following cities, municipalities and districts adjoin the district in a clockwise direction: In the north the district of Warendorf with the city ​​of Drensteinfurt , in the east the district of Hamm-Heessen and in the south the districts of Hamm- Mitte and Hamm-Herringen . To the west, the Unna district joins the city of Werne and, to the northwest, the Coesfeld district with the municipality of Ascheberg (Herbern district). The farmers around Bockum-Hövel are Geinegge, Hölter, Holsen and Barsen.

The coordinates for the central location refer to the former town hall , today's seat of the district council. The height information must also be related to these coordinates: 65.53  m above sea level. NN . According to the statistical yearbook of the city of Hamm 2005, the highest natural elevation is in the district area and also in the city of Hamm at 102.0 m above sea level. NN on the Kurricker Berg . In fact, only about 10% of the Kurrickers Berg belong to Bockum-Hövel; the greater part, including the highest point, is in Drensteinfurt. The highest point in the district is actually at 100.5 m above sea level. NN west of the Geinegge spring between Brökers Weg and the street "In der Sommerbree" at Hof Schulze Krutmann and is part of the Lipper heights . The lowest point is 37.7 m on the Am Lausbach road .

Natural allocation

The urban district of Bockum-Hövel naturally belongs to the Westphalian Bay , a main unit group in the system of natural areas. Within this main unit group, the entire area of ​​the city district belongs to the main unit Kernmünsterland . The area of ​​Bockum-Hövel lies in the north on the Lipper heights and in the south in the Middle Lippetal , both sub-units of the Kernmünsterland.

Historical assignment

Münsterland

The places Bockum and Hövel historically belonged to the bishopric of Münster and bordered in the south and southeast on the county of Mark , to which the city of Hamm also belonged. This division of secular domains developed in the 13th century and lasted until the secularization of the bishopric in 1803. De facto, however, it ended in 1802 with the Prussian occupation of the bishopric. The area of ​​the former municipality of Bockum-Hövel is thus part of the historic Münsterland . This finds u. a. in the Münsterländer Platt, which is still partly spoken here today . From 1803 it belonged to the Kingdom of Prussia and was later added to the province of Westphalia together with the county of Mark .

Ruhr area

The area of ​​the city district has been part of the Ruhr area since 1905 , which at the beginning of the 20th century grew far into the Münsterland with mining. In 1905 the Radbod mine started operations; the villages of Bockum and Hövel developed into the Ruhr area town of Bockum-Hövel. The rural character typical of the Münsterland is still evident today in the Geinegge, Hölter, Holsen and Barsen peasant communities surrounding the urban area. The city of Bockum-Hövel was incorporated into the city of Hamm in 1975 with the city of Heessen. This forms the eastern end of the Ruhr area.

Waters

Flowing waters

The creeks of the community all belong to the river basin of the Lippe. The Lippe also roughly forms the border to the southern Hammer city districts and runs through the Bockum-Hövel area from east to west.

Geinegge

As a more than nine kilometers long tributary of the Lippe, the Geinegge is the most important flowing body of Bockum-Hövel.

Eversbach

The Eversbach has its origin in the meadows of the Everding farm between Hauerwinkel and Hammer Straße. It flows through the former colliery colony south of the Radbod industrial and commercial park. On a long stretch it follows the course of Marinestrasse, which is why it is also known under the name Marinebach . Today it is almost completely piped up and is important for the disposal of the sewage that it feeds to the lip, into which it finally flows.

Lausbach

Almost the entire course of the Lausbach, which was very rich in fish in the old days, forms a large part of the municipal boundary between Bockum-Hövel and Stockum . It flows into the Lippe about one kilometer southwest of the former Laake house , today's garbage dump.

Erlenbach

The Erlenbach has its origin near the Bockumer Friedhof. It flows through Köhnes Büschken , crosses the wooded area between Stockumer Straße and Jansenstraße and shortly afterwards flows its water to the Lausbach.

Radbodsee

The Radbodsee, which originated from underground coal mining at the eponymous Radbod colliery , is now part of the Alte Lippe and Radbodsee nature reserve and is a valuable biotope for migratory fish and migratory birds.

history

Early history

There were places to live on the Lippe Heights very early on; the first Stone Age residents are believed to have been around 1000 BC. Have lived. The first written evidence of settlement comes from Roman times. At that time the Lippe heights belonged to the area of ​​the Germanic tribe of the Brukterer . Before the conquest of Charlemagne , the region was under the rule of the Saxons. At that time, the area of ​​today's Bockum-Hövel was probably already densely populated for the conditions at the time. So Bockum appears in old documents as Buckheim (Bukheim / Buchenheim), which means settlement with the beeches .

Charlemagne subjugated the Saxons in 804. This gave the so-called holy Liudger the opportunity to Christianize Westphalia. In the same year the diocese of Münster was founded and Liudger was its first bishop. The Franks left the old district division of the Sachsenland unchanged. The Saxon tribal duke was still at the head of the country. The bishops only had sovereignty over the churches and monasteries.

Around the year 950, under the name Athalheringwik, the oldest knightly seat in the region is apparently documented, the knightly seat Aquak , to which a peasantry of the same name probably already belonged at that time.

County Hövel

When Hövel became its own county is controversial among historians. According to the conclusions drawn from a medieval source, the Annalista Saxo , the previous rule of the Counts of Werl was divided between three brothers who were entitled to inherit from the year 1000 . The area of ​​today's Bockum-Hövel passed into the possession of Bernhard von Werl-Hövel. In 1003 he had the house or the Hövel castle built on the hill (Huvili) in the northeast of today's city district . Today there is the old Vicarie (400 m north of the St. Pankratius Church). The castle was based on the village of Hövel. At the time of its greatest expansion, the county reached as far as Münster, Dortmund, Soest and the Paderborn possessions. Bernhard von Werl-Hövel founded the churches of St. Pankratius in Hövel and St. Stephanus in Bockum on the occasion of the birth of his daughter or granddaughter around 1025 and 1050 respectively . A Bockum parish was first mentioned in a document in 1092 and a Hövel parish in 1193. When Bernhard's granddaughter Adelheid von Lauffen married Count Adolf von Berg-Hövel , Bockum and Hövel came into the hands of the Counts von Berg .

Paul Leidinger contradicts this: There is a mix-up in the Annalista Saxo. The Bernhard mentioned there can be identified with Bernhard II von Werl , ancestor of the Counts of Arnsberg . Hövel was owned by Arnsberg until 1124 and only after that year, when the Arnsberg family of counts became extinct in the male line, passed through the Arnsberg heir to the Counts of Berg, who was married to Adolf II von Berg . Thus Adolf II von Berg was the first Count of Hövel. On this topic, see also the article Count von Hövel . Accordingly, the Stephanus and Pankratius churches were not founded by a Count von Hövel according to this variant, but are foundations of the diocese of Münster. They probably date from the time the bishopric was founded after 804 and may have been personally consecrated by St. Liudger .

It was probably already Count Eberhard I von Berg-Altena who had the first Nienbrügge castle built on the southern edge of Bockum-Hövel in order to better control the properties south of the Lippe via this important bridgehead. His son Arnold von Altena is responsible for the expansion of the castle and the settlement south of the Lippe. Nienbrügge was destroyed in 1225 when the last Count of Hövel, Friedrich von Isenberg , played a major role in the assassination of Archbishop Engelbert I of Cologne . Friedrich was executed in Cologne in 1226. In the inheritance dispute, the Isenberger Wirren , which lasted until 1243 , the areas south of the Lippe went to Count Adolf I von der Mark , who had given the residents of Nienbrügges a new home with the city of Hamm . Bockum and Hövel, which are north of the Lippe, were lost to both the Isenbergers and the Märkers. From then on, they were under the rule of the Prince-Bishop of Münster and / or the Hochstift Münster , which had the jurisdiction of the goalkeepers and thus the de facto right to rule. Bockum-Hövel still belongs to the diocese of Münster today . The former county of Hövel was integrated into the other possessions of its new rulers.

Monastery of Münster

After the end of the county, Hövel Castle was taken over by the Lords de Hüvele . They also lived at Geinegge Castle , a castle complex that presumably existed before 1200 and was also owned by the Counts of Hövel. Over the centuries, the de Hüvele grew into a widely ramified noble family. This family owned properties in Bockum-Hövel's neighborhood, for example Haus Laake and Haus Stockum . The gentlemen de Hüvele carried a silver coat of arms with two red block stripes, the forerunner of the later city coat of arms of Bockum-Hövel.

In 1265 the Unterhof Bockum , later the Köhne farm, on whose grounds the Ludgeristift stands today, is first mentioned in a document; It almost certainly existed at a much earlier point in time. During this time, Bockum and Hövel's history is shaped by the border location between the Diocese of Münster and the County of Mark with its newly founded capital Hamm, which was part of Cologne's sphere of influence. The first stone-built Stephanuskirche dates back to 1270; the Pankratius Church was replaced by a stone building between 1325 and 1330.

In the years that followed, Bockum and Hövel came more and more under the rule of the lords of House Ermelinghof . When Gert von Galen, owner of Ermelinghof, converted to the Protestant faith in 1550, Lutheran masses were also held in the Pankratius Church. In 1652, Prince-Bishop Christoph Bernhard von Galen (at Haus Bisping) arranged for the von Galen family to return to the Catholic faith in Ermelinghof. During this time, Pastor Baggel reintroduced the Catholic service in Pankratius. Baggel, who was pastor in Hövel for the entire Thirty Years' War from 1618 , is one of the most dazzling and shady figures in Bockum-Hövel history. In 1622 he appointed himself tax collector; In 1624 he moved into desolate farms; In 1631 he acquired Hövel Castle and moved there; In 1633 the castle burned down for him, thereupon he confiscated the Geinegge castle, moved there and had some of its outbuildings demolished in order to rebuild Hövel Castle; In 1643 he moved there again; In 1650 he was sentenced to a fine for embezzling community funds; In 1663 he set up a family foundation that only benefited his relatives. He died in 1668. Bockum and Hövel were badly affected by the Thirty Years' War. The region was plundered in 1625 by the great Christian ( Christian von Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel ). In Bockum, the turmoil of the war had to close the Stephanuskirche, in whose neighborhood a Wolf had moved into quarters.

Even in the Seven Years' War (1756–1763), the rural region became the scene of acts of war. In 1787 the Ermelinghof house was foreclosed because the von Galen family was in debt. It came into the possession of Baron von Wintgen.

Grand Duchy of Berg

The parishes of Bockum and Hövel belonged to the Werne office until the beginning of the 18th century and were sovereignly assigned to the monastery of Münster . In the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss (1803) the region was assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia , both villages became part of the new Lüdinghausen district . Of the countries ceded by Prussia in the Tilsit Peace Treaty (1807) , Napoleon linked the Principality of Münster and other areas with the Grand Duchy of Berg, established in 1806, by a decree of March 1, 1808 . Bockum and Hövel now belonged to the canton of Ahlen in the Hamm arrondissement or to the Ruhr department and were administratively assigned to Mairie Heessen . After the French withdrew (1813), Prussia took over, initially provisionally, its previous areas on the right bank of the Rhine.

Due to the agreements made at the Congress of Vienna (1815), the region became part of Prussia on a permanent basis. The municipalities of Bockum and Hövel were assigned to the new administrative district of Münster and the province of Westphalia under the Prussian administration together with the Lüdinghausen district .

Prussian rule

After returning to the Prussian State Association in 1816, Bockum and Hövel were merged into one mayor's office, which, however, was dissolved again two years later. Bockum and Hövel have now been assigned to the Drensteinfurt mayor, along with Walstedde. This regulation existed until 1908. As the population numbers rose very quickly as a result of the establishment of the Radbod mine, a separate administration appeared necessary. The previously about 2 km apart remote villages and Bockum Hövel made from 1 April 1908, the Office Bockum-Hoevel in the district Lüdinghausen , Münster Region . This office was initially administered from Ermelinghof Castle until 1910 and later from an official building in the village of Hövel.

In 1820 the moats of the former Hövel Castle were filled in and the old buildings demolished. Geinegge Castle burned down completely in 1840.

On May 26, 1848, the Münster – Hamm railway was opened. The village of Hövel was connected to it with the Ermelinghof train station. In 1861 the villages together had only 1242 inhabitants, 2128 in 1905. Up to the end of the 19th century, both villages lived mainly from agriculture, handicrafts and retail trade. Strontianite was also mined at the end of the 19th century . The mineral was mined about 1 km west of the Kurricker Berg, it was needed in the sugar industry as a catalyst for molasses desugarization. However, the demand for strontianite lasted only a short time. After the cheaper Celestine was used as a substitute, production was discontinued.

The 20th century until today

Radbod shaft frames I. and II. As in 1997

The sinking work for shaft 1 of the Radbod colliery began on March 13, 1905. The mine, named after a Frisian king of the 8th century , had lasting significance for the urban and economic development of the villages.

Both villages had 2128 inhabitants in 1905. In the next few years settlement activity expanded rapidly and changed the space between the communities, which had been dominated by agriculture and villages up to that point. Between Bockum and Hovel, but initially without functional reference to the old villages, emerged with a focus on the bill at the Hammer road and along the Werner Zechenbahn by the architect Karl Siebold from Bethel in Bielefeld planned garden city dominated housing estates , such as the colony Radbod and the Wittekindstrasse settlement.

On November 12, 1908, there was a firedamp explosion in the colliery. 348 of 1805 miners were killed; two more died later as a result of the accident. The sensation in the media and in politics was enormous for the conditions at the time. Kaiser Wilhelm II also gave condolences, whose son, Prince Eitel-Friedrich, traveled to the funeral ceremonies. The trade union and social democratic press in particular massively criticized the working and safety conditions in the mining industry. Significant donations were received from all parts of the empire to provide financial support to the miners' families.

Due to the accident and the strong public response, the mountain inspection in the Ruhr area was strengthened. The need to better understand the formation and course of coal dust explosions and to be able to prevent them by taking precautions was the reason for the involvement of the mining trade association in the establishment of two test tracks on the site of the Derne mine between 1909 and 1911. As a result, electrical mine and helmet lamps henceforth the petrol-powered lamps. The mining accident also gave the final impetus for the construction of the St. Josefs Hospital on Hohenhöveler Straße. It was built on Hohenhöveler Strasse as the foundation of the Order of Malta (foundation stone laid November 21, 1911, opening March 10, 1913, 100 beds). The land required for this comes from a donation from the von Twickel family to the Cooperative of the Rhenish-Westphalian Maltese Knights of Devotion . The supply area of ​​the hospital, which was operated by the Clement Sisters until 1974 , was initially Bockum-Hövel and the neighboring farmers.

On October 1, 1976, apparently due to financial cuts by the federal government, the Maltese National School for nurses' helpers, which had previously been located on Albert-Struck-Strasse, was closed.

The number of inhabitants continued to rise due to mining. In 1908 Bockum-Hövel had 5290 inhabitants, in 1914 there were 13,786. The working-class families recruited by the mine administration came mainly from Silesia , East and West Prussia, Bavaria , Saxony and Thuringia . Approx. 350 families came from Carinthia , Styria and what was then Bohemia in Austria-Hungary . Due to immigration, the Protestant population increased sharply in the region north of the Lippe, which up until then had been almost entirely Catholic. Separate institutions were created for the Protestant portion of the population, which became stronger as a result. The valley school was built as a Protestant elementary school and inaugurated in 1911 with a pupil number of 190.

Towards the end of the First World War, two Jewish merchant families moved into the Hövel community. After the boycott of Jewish businesses by the National Socialists, they saw no future for themselves in Germany. On the night of April 27, 1933, they and their seven members fled to the Netherlands. There they came under the Nazis' sphere of influence again after the German occupation. Between 1942 and 1944 they were deported to Auschwitz and murdered.

In April 1939, 17,401 residents lived in Bockum-Hövel. On April 1, 1939, the villages of Bockum and Hövel merged to form the unofficial municipality of Bockum-Hövel . From then on, the post office (previously Radbod) and the train station (previously Ermelinghof) were called Bockum-Hövel.

Between 1940 and 1945 more than 4,000 forced laborers lived in Bockum-Hövel, most of them Soviet prisoners of war and Eastern European deported civilians. They lived on farms, in private houses, farms and above all in seven camps, four of them at the Radbod colliery.  

In 1946 the population was 19,168. The population structure changed again permanently due to the influx of refugees from Silesia and East Prussia between 1945 and 1950.

On May 20, 1956, the state government of North Rhine-Westphalia elevated the municipality to the city ​​of Bockum-Hövel . From the 1960s onwards, additional new settlements emerged, primarily in single and row house construction on the scenic outskirts of Bockum and Hövel. Correspondingly, from 1965 to around 1975, when the economy was booming and working conditions were comparatively poor, there was a "tendency to flee" from the mining industry. The labor shortage was compensated for by recruiting mainly Turkish workers.

On January 1, 1975, the 31.52 km² city , which had previously belonged to the Lüdinghausen district and now had 26,210 inhabitants and was in the course of the municipal reorganization carried out in North Rhine-Westphalia against the will of the population, became a district in the south of the Lippe, Brandenburg City of Hamm incorporated ( Münster / Hamm law ). This contradicted the historical, linguistic ( Münsterländer Platt ) and, since it was located north of the Lippe, geographical affiliation of Bockum-Hövel to the Münsterland . Despite the foreseeable merger, the Bockum-Hövel town hall was built on Teichweg in 1971 and 1972 . Today the building is used as a district and citizens' office as well as for the municipal JobCenter Hamm. The old town hall or office building in Hövel on Bahnhofstrasse (later Ermelinghofstrasse) was then sold to an architect and, apart from a small remainder, was torn down on July 7, 1982.

After the incorporation, the town of Bockum-Hövel became one of seven districts in Hamm. According to the main statute of the city of Hamm, the district formed from parts of Hammer Nord and the former urban area was given the official name of Hamm-Bockum-Hövel.

In 1990 the Radbod colliery was closed. As early as the mid-1970s, long-established Bockum-Hövel companies in the Römerstrasse industrial park have expanded and various external or newly founded companies have been added.

An overview of historical castles and knight seats

Bockum-Hövel has a number of historic castle complexes, none of which are preserved today.

Hövel Castle

Hövel Castle was the ancestral seat of the Counts of Hövel . After the death of the last Count of Hövel, Friedrich von Isenberg , in 1226 the castle passed to the Lords of Hövel as a fiefdom from the Brandenburg region . In the hands of other owners, the castle burned down, was rebuilt and finally fell into complete disrepair.

Geinegge Castle

Geinegge Castle is a castle belonging to the Lords of Hövel on the Geinegge. It was located in the area of ​​the former Hövel outdoor pool and the area of ​​the Tuwa Bockum-Hövel with the Ferdinand Hübner sports hall.

Nienbrügge Castle

Nienbrügge Castle , located on the north side of the Lippe at the mouth of the Geinegge, was razed and the city of Nienbrügge was destroyed after the killing of Archbishop Engelbert I of Cologne with the participation of the last Count of Hövel, Friedrich von Isenberg. Adolf I von der Mark offered its residents a new home in the city of Hamm, which was founded for this purpose .

House Laake

Haus Laake (also: Haus Lake) was a seat of the von Hövel family. In 1980 the property was demolished and the municipal waste dump built over it.

Knight seat Aquak

One of the oldest knights' seats in Bockum-Hövel is the Aquak knight's seat , after which a separate peasantry was named for a long time. Its exact position is unknown today, but it was probably on the Geinegge.

Population development

The population development and thus also the development to the town of Bockum-Hövel is directly related to the development of the Radbod colliery since 1905. Before 1905, Bockum-Hövel was still a very rural, shared administrative area of ​​two villages that were not structurally connected in the southern Munsterland landscape. The colliery created a new settlement block between the villages. The colony of miners grew rapidly, and this is how the urban context and the urban character of today's urban district emerged. The strong dependence of this development on the number of miners can be seen from the following tables.

It was not until the beginning of the coal crisis in Germany that the importance of the Radbod mine declined significantly, and when it was closed in 1990 it became extinct. It was the largest employer in the district until just before the end of coal mining.

The district council has nineteen members and is elected for five years on a separate slip of paper in the local elections. It elects the district head from among its members. This / r chaired and has representative tasks. The party composition of the district council does not have to be a reflection of the council. This is also due to the fact that the individual city districts have very different weightings in terms of political attitudes.

The district council has important decision-making and hearing rights in local matters. These result from the municipal code and the statutes of the city of Hamm. The district representation is u. a. Responsible for the decision on new construction, renovation and expansion of streets, entries in the list of monuments, establishment of weekly markets, improvements to the living environment and the naming of streets.

Udo Helm has been the district representative since 2009, succeeding Günter Bachtrop.

Name and coat of arms declaration

The city ​​of Bockum-Hövel received the coat of arms in 1955. It shows a division into four horizontal bands, starting with red at the top, then silver (shown as white), red and again silver. This division stands for the gentlemen from Hövel , who were originally called de Hüvele . Hüvele means something like hill. In the second volume from the top, the coat of arms shows two beechnuts in the colors gold (yellow) and red. They symbolize the district of Bockum, the name of which is derived from the name Buchenheim . The lower band shows the miners' tools, mallets and irons . Today's coat of arms is an artistic creation made up of various elements, as there was no older, uniform coat of arms for the previously separate districts of Bockum and Hövel. It was created on the occasion of the granting of city rights by the state government of North Rhine-Westphalia . When the city of Bockum-Hövel was incorporated into the independent city of Hamm , none of the elements of this coat of arms were adopted. The city of Hamm continued its older historical coat of arms unchanged.

schools

The oldest Höveler school was on what is now Mesenkamp's property on Overbergstrasse. When it became dilapidated around 1800, the community sold it including the sexton's apartment and built a classroom in a house by the church. This is where the town hall stands today .

At that time there were two classrooms in the village of Bockum, one of which was housed in what is now the Striepens house.

The great immigration since 1905 requires new schools. Seven school buildings were erected in the course of the next twenty years: the Stephanusschule in 1905, the Ludgerischule in 1909, the Valley School in 1910, the Pestalozzi School in 1911, the Overberg School in 1912, the von Vincke School in 1912, and the Freiligrath School in 1924.

The valley school was partially destroyed by the effects of the war and restored in 1948/49.

The influx of students in the first few years not only presented the administration, who had to take care of these buildings, but also the teaching staff with a difficult task. The children came from all over Germany and neighboring European countries. At that time, a school class offered a colorful picture of where the students came from. There were children from Thuringia , Saxony , Bavaria , Silesia , East Prussia , Posen , from the Austrian regions of Carinthia , Styria and Bohemia , as well as from Hungary , Poland , Italy and Serbia . They brought with them very different and often insufficient knowledge. In addition, they had previously grown up speaking different dialects and languages. The children often changed schools during this time, as their fathers kept taking up work in other mines in the Ruhr area. Registrations and de-registrations of students were part of the agenda.

The rapid increase in population after the First World War led to the establishment of numerous other schools.

With the municipal reform of 1975 , Bockum-Hövel was incorporated into Hamm . The former Nordenfeldmark Hamms, the north of Hamm north of the Lippe , was divided into the districts of Hamm-Bockum-Hövel and Hamm-Heessen. This brought more schools to the Bockum-Höveler area, including the only public grammar school in Hamm north of the Lippe, the Galilei grammar school .

The station is served by the regional trains RB 69 ( Münster - Bielefeld ) and RB 89 ( Rheine - Warburg ) operated by the Eurobahn . The regional express RE 7 (Rheine - Münster - Cologne - Krefeld ) also stops at Bockum-Hövel station in the morning and evening . The operator is National Express .

Until 1985, a passenger car also ran on the Werne – Bockum-Höveler railway line via Stockum to Werne. This was attached to the scheduled freight trains running once a day in each direction. A plan by the city and the state of North Rhine-Westphalia provides for the establishment of two light rail lines on these routes for the period after 2015 , one line as a regional light rail from Hamm via Bockum-Hövel, Werne , Bergkamen , Lünen to Dortmund and another as a light rail from Bockum -Hövel via Hamm to Werries .

On January 2, 1954, line 4 (Hamm - Bockum) of the Hamm tram , which had previously been operated as an island, was finally discontinued and transferred to bus traffic. Today the city district is integrated into Hamm's city bus network by bus lines 2, 4 and 9 from Stadtwerke Hamm . There are also the regional bus routes R14 and S10 operated by the Unna District Transport Company (VKU) . The entire Hammer city area belongs to the Ruhr-Lippe transport association .

Religions

Catholic Church

The former urban area of ​​Bockum-Hövels belongs to the diocese of Münster . Until December 31, 2004 the following independent parishes existed as dean's office Hamm-Nord, district dean's office Warendorf of the diocese of Münster zu Bockum-Hövel: St. Stephanus and Herz Jesu (Bockum); St. Pankratius and Christ the King (Hövel); Maria Queen (Hamm-North).

The Bishop of Münster , Dr. Reinhard Lettmann , merged the Bockum parishes of St. Stephanus and Herz Jesu as well as the Höveler parishes of St. Pankratius and Christ-King with effect from December 31, 2004 to form a new parish under the name "Catholic parish Heilig Geist Bockum-Hövel". The parish church of the new parish is the Church of St. Pankratius. The churches Christ the King, Herz Jesu and St. Stephanus are affiliated churches . The churches kept their previous patronage . The amalgamation of the Catholic parishes Christ the King in Hamm, Herz Jesu in Hamm, St. Pankratius and St. Stephanus in Hamm to form a new parish under the name "Catholic parish Heilig Geist Bockum-Hövel" was recognized for the state by the Arnsberg district government .

With a certificate from the Bishop of Münster dated November 2, 2005, the Catholic parishes of Maria Königin (district of Bockum-Hövel) and Herz Jesu (district of Heessen) in Hamm-Nord were named "Catholic parish Clemens August Graf von Galen" with effect from 27 November 2005 merged. State recognition took place with a certificate from the Arnsberg district government dated December 12, 2005.

Church buildings or Catholic churches

St.-Pankratiuskirche Hövel
View from Herrensteiner Knapp to Hövel with St. Pankratius Church

According to an unsecured tradition, there was a St. Pankratius church in the old town center of Hövel as early as 804 or the beginning of the 11th century. If it existed at all, it was a very humble wooden church. A Romanesque sandstone building was erected in its place at the beginning of the 12th century. At the end of the 19th century this building had become too small; the original building was replaced by the current church. The architect Wilhelm Rincklake , master builder of historicism in Westphalia, designed the new building in 1892. In 1894 the construction work was finished. In an air raid on March 23, 1944, two bombs laid the nave to rubble and ashes. Today's church was built according to plans by Eberhard Michael Kleffner and Christa Kleffner-Dirxen, incorporating the old westwork in the style of the 1950s. In 1954 the rebuilding of the building began under the direction of Pastor Wilhelm Weber . Auxiliary Bishop Heinrich Baaken consecrated the church again in a solemn pontifical office on November 3, 1957. The objectivity and severity of the ambitious interior are softened by the large-scale mosaic that was placed over the altar in the early 1980s. This represents the risen Jesus Christ. The bells from 1511 and 1678 are listed. Not far from the church on the street “Am Wemhof” is the old pastorate, which is now used as the parish hall of St. Pankratius - built in 1564 and also listed. The building is constructed as a hall building in Münsterland . Right next to the pastorate is a two-storey half-timbered store built around 1700.

St. Stephen's Church Bockum

St. Stephen's Church in the Bockum district was built between 1905 and 1907. It serves as a replacement for the Gothic so-called Old Church , whose existence is documented for the year 1092 and which had become too small at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries because of the population growth. Bockum citizens brought them to collapse together, as is handed down in Bockum, in order to evade the monument protection regulations that provided for the preservation of the medieval gem. There is a tradition that a small, wooden church was located here shortly after 804 or the middle of the 11th century; However, this must be regarded as unsecured.

St. Michaels Chapel

The St. Michaels Chapel stood between 1708 and 1977 in the Bockum district on the corner of Hammer Strasse and Stockumer Strasse.

Christ the King and Sacred Heart Church

Since the parish churches of St. Pankratius in Hövel and St. Stephanus in Bockum were too small in relation to the number of inhabitants and the Radbod colony had grown enormously, the two parishes began to build two new churches in the colony. Collections for this purpose began when the Bishop of Münster and the Province of Westphalia granted each of the two parishes a house and church collection. Building funds were soon amassed in considerable amounts. It is true that a large church in the middle of the colony had also been suggested. However, the two parishes of St. Pankratius and St. Stephanus each decided on a rectorate parish that was initially still dependent on them and the churches belonging to it.

The construction of the Sacred Heart Church and the parsonage began on Hammer Strasse. On May 2, 1928, the church was consecrated by the bishop with great sympathy from the Bockum population. It was initially the rectorate church of the St. Stephanus congregation. The first rector of the Sacred Heart Congregation was Johannes Wellekötter, who had been the vicar of the St. Stephanus Congregation since 1924. On June 1, 1939, the rectorate parish of the Sacred Heart of Jesus was elevated to a parish. Its first pastor was Rector Wellekötter, who returned to St. Stephen's parish as pastor in 1943. In the Sacred Heart Congregation, he was followed by Pastor Clemens Hörster, who was replaced by Pastor Norbert Brockhinke in 1968. He was followed by Leonard Rollnik.

In Hövel, the foundation stone was laid for the new church on Eichstedtstrasse on October 30, 1927. The building was given its name, the Christ the King Church, in view of the anniversary of Pope Pius XI in 1925 . Christ the King's Festival introduced for the whole Church . The sacred building was inaugurated by the bishop on October 25, 1928. Kaup became the parish rector. The new parish was initially the rectorate parish of the St. Pankratius parish. Under Parish Rector Wansing, she was raised to a parish on April 1, 1952, and he also became its first pastor. Pastor Hoppe followed him, followed by Pastor Küper. Due to cracks in the building structure and the increasing number of visitors, a new building was planned to replace the old church building, which was completed in 1977. The church, built in 1928, was demolished the following year. Only in 1987 was the church added its tower.

Mary Queen

When the paths to the Herz Jesu Church on Karlsplatz became too far for the Catholic believers in the west of Hammer Nord after the Second World War , they acquired a plot of land on the edge of a new building area in 1954 and built the Maria Königin church there. With the amalgamation to the "Catholic parish of Clemens August Graf von Galen", Maria Königin became a branch church. Parish church is the Herz Jesu church in Heessen, not to be confused with the church of the same name in Bockum-Hövel.

Protestant church

The Evangelical Church Community Bockum-Hövel is part of the Hamm parish of the Evangelical Church of Westphalia (EkvW). It is divided into three parish districts in the city of Hamm, the districts I. Kreuzkirche, II. Katharina-Luther-Centrum, and IV. Auferstehungskirche. The municipality III. Paul-Gerhardt-Haus ( Walstedde ) and Church of Resurrection ( Herbern ) are located in the area of ​​the city of Drensteinfurt and the municipality of Ascheberg .

Church buildings or Protestant churches

Kreuzkirche

The Protestant cruciform church was built in 1912 in the neo-Romanesque style, after the very small Protestant community in the 19th century grew rapidly after the Radbod colliery was founded. The Kreuzkirche was also badly damaged in World War II, but the war damage was repaired as early as 1950.

Church of the Resurrection

After purchasing a plot of land in Hövel on Uphofstrasse in 1956, the parish districts were redistributed on November 1, 1960. The actual laying of the foundation stone took place on May 19, 1962; the topping-out ceremony could be celebrated together with that of the rectory. After a long winter period during which work had to be stopped, the second independent Protestant church was inaugurated on October 6, 1963 by President D. Wilms. The inauguration of the bells cast by the Bochumer Verein took place on December 31, 1963. In 1964 an organ was purchased. The first pastor of this church was Pastor Georg Stöcker (previously pastor of the Kreuzkirche).

Katharina Luther Center

With the Katharina Luther Center, the Protestant church has had another church building in the Bockum area since 1989.

Johanneskirche

Hammer Norden is accessible through the listed Johanneskirche from 1938.

Evangelical Free Church Congregation

The emergence of this community is closely linked to the development of the Radbod colliery. The first community members came to Bockum-Hövel as workers and employees of the colliery. They joined together to form the community and were able to bring more members of their faith from Saxony, Silesia and East Prussia to Bockum-Hövel over the years. Initially, they were looked after from Dortmund. As early as 1906 the Christians of the Evangelical Free Church congregation gathered in houses for church services and prayer hours. Before 1942 they called themselves Baptists . In 1912 the community managed to move into the former emergency church of the Protestant community at Kaiserstraße 1 (today's Friedrich-Ebert-Straße) after the Protestant parish church was inaugurated on November 17, 1912. The emergency church was rented from 1912 to 1947. It was first used in the mornings by the Protestant parish as a place of worship. After the Protestant church was rebuilt in 1912, the church was available to the Baptists alone.

In 1916 a Sunday school was established . Although not yet an independent congregation, the Bockum-Höveler Baptists appointed Johannes Schneider as the first preacher. Thanks to the preacher's missionary commitment, the congregation grew to 112 members by the time the Baptist congregation in Radbod was founded on June 22, 1919. A youth group and a girls' choir soon formed. Johannes Schneider worked until 1924. Until 1928 the congregation was headed by an outside preacher. Walter Harnisch was a preacher from 1928 to 1930 and Julius Schlüsser from 1933 to 1939. During the war years, parishioners took on the field service.

1945 Preacher Wilhelm Mecklenburg came to Hövel. In 1947 he had the emergency church , which was badly destroyed in World War II, torn down. Then a chapel room with a preacher's apartment was built in-house. The property later became the property of the municipality.

Other preachers in the congregation were: Walter Schmidt (1953 to 1960), Ernst Schiffer (1960 to 1966), Albert Wilhelms (1966 to 1970), Klaus Bloedhorn (after 1970).

Further confessions

There is also a congregation of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and three Islamic congregations, most of which are Turks.

Monuments (sights)

Radbod colliery industrial monument

Headframe of the Radbod colliery

The industrial monument Radbod colliery with winding towers, headframes with hanging bench above shafts 1 and 2 as well as the associated machines testify to the mining of the last century that shaped the city. The winding machine houses of the Radbod colliery were built in 1905/06 in the historicist style. Arched friezes , pilaster strips and the alternation of brick and plaster fields structure the facades. Inside there are steam-powered twin tandem hoisting machines from 1907 and 1908, which are among the few that have survived in North Rhine-Westphalia. The socio-cultural center Kulturrevier Radbod is located in some of the buildings in the main entrance area .

Miners Monument

Miners Monument

The miners' memorial in Ermelinghofstrasse commemorates the mining accident of 1908. The dead were buried here in two mass graves in the old cemetery in Hövel. Three years after the accident, the Trier mining company erected a memorial based on a design by Prof. Ernst Müller-Braunschweig in the Ehrenfriedhof. The monument consists of three parts. In the middle rises an approximately 6 m high dolomite stone cross on a high base. On both sides of the cross there are two walls with benches - also made of dolomite - on which there are a total of 20 boards above the benches with the names of 350 miners who died in the accident. From the middle of these walls, opposite the cross, a 2 m high pedestal pushes out, on which a kneeling, praying miner stands on the left and two mourning women on the right. A plaque under the cross reads: “In memory of the miners who died at the Radbod colliery on November 12, 1908.” On the back it says: "Dedicated by the Trier mining company."

House Ermelinghof (Geinegge 38)

House Ermelinghof

With Haus Ermelinghof, an ensemble of buildings from different art eras has been preserved. The manor house is said to have received its name from its first residents, the von Ermel family from the Amalaric family, who lived there until the end of the 13th century. The property surrounding the moat flows through the Mesenbach. Ermelinghof Castle was first mentioned in 1350. The original form used by the von Aretin family is "Ermelinghoff".

The moated castle was the seat of a branch of the von Galen family from 1410 to 1786 . In the course of bankruptcy proceedings, the von Wintgen family acquired the property in 1786, which passed to the von Twickel family through the marriage of their heir Mathilde , into which the von Aretin family later married.

In front of the bridge crossing to the courtyard and the main building there is a statue of John of Nepomuk depicting the “bridge saint”, followed by a classicist column portal from 1831. Also worth seeing is the small plastered three-bay chapel with a pan-roofed gable roof and roof turret, which was consecrated to Saint Bartholomew in 1654 . Opposite the main building, which was built in neo-Gothic style after a fire in 1875 , is the two-storey brewery - made of fired clay bricks, with a three-tier gable - built in 1620 and almost unchanged to this day.
