history
Charles the Bald left the former royal property to his henchman and chronicler Nithard in 845 . The property later belonged to the Prüm Abbey , followed by the Lords of Le Nouvion-en-Thiérache and, in 1137, the Premonstratensian Abbey. In 1210 the abbey built a village. The lordship rights were transferred to the ducal family of the House of Guise . In 1462 Johann von Luxemburg took over the village after the castle had been destroyed by the English in 1423. In 1650 the village was taken by the Spanish. The first local chronicle was published on March 8, 1888.
In the course of history, the spelling of the place name has been changed several times. In the past we find Anapia , Hanapium , Henappe (on the Cassini map ), Hannape , Hannappes (this designation is still on the town hall and on the lock sign) and currently Hannapes on the town sign. The spelling differs from the place Hannappes in the Ardennes, only 60 kilometers away.

In 1766, 156 fires were counted in the place, i.e. dwellings, which corresponds to about 600 inhabitants. In 1795 a census of residents over 12 years was carried out, in which 455 people are recorded. A realistic projection of the total population at this point in time also corresponds to approximately 600 people.

There were also tailors, butchers, coopers, shoemakers, traders of various goods (tobacco, fabric, grain, fruits, horses, groceries), farriers, turners, a guesthouse operator, brewers, shepherds, upholsterers, carpenters, hauliers, innkeepers and agents other professions that were needed in every place, as well as a large farmer, a notary, a justice of the peace and a teacher.
