location
The house Uentrop is located at Zollstrasse 2 in the Hammer district of Uentrop . The Lippe crossing to Dolberg is at this location . Just as House Stockum served to secure the Brandenburg territory below Hamm, House Uentrop was dedicated to protecting the Lippe crossing between Uentrop and Dolberg, i.e. the properties above the city of Hamm.
Structural condition
Haus Uentrop is a two-storey, simple brick building with a narrow central projection and a hipped roof. A double coat of arms from Reck-Baer from 1720 can be found above the main portal. The room is arranged according to the scheme of the apartment double . In the entrance hall there is an elaborate wooden staircase with intermediate posts and dock railings.
The property also has three two-storey residential and farm buildings made of field fire bricks: The servants' house from 1849 with a central projectile; a barn from 1860 with a stepped gable and horse stables with original equipment inside. This includes a carpeted pillar of the boxes, tiles on the walls and a coffered ceiling.
The monument protection results from the importance of the property for the history of the people of the region and for scientific reasons within the meaning of § 2 Monument Protection Act. The monument property covers the area between the Lippe and Grften (inclusive), the main house, the surrounding park, the servants' house, the barn and the horse stables. The interior of the servants' house, the barn (cowshed) and the horse stable are not listed, but with the exception of the space behind the central projection. In this are the horse boxes.
An outside view of the property from the street is possible, but not an inner courtyard or even inside. The building is uninhabited, but entry is still prohibited. The farm buildings are used for agricultural purposes.
history
As early as 1198, Haus Uentrop and Haus Heidemühlen served the Counts of Berg-Altena to secure their territorial borders against the Monastery of Münster .
In 1226, Count Adolf I von der Mark founded the city of Hamm . His castle team at Burg Mark included the Lords von der Recke , who lived in a castle in the town of Hamm and later came into possession of the Uentrop estate.
Members of a knight family von Uentrop are documented for the years 1325 and 1380. A direct connection to the Uentrop house cannot be proven. According to von Steinen, the house was owned by a certain Dietrich von Grimberg in 1328.
According to a document from the year 1393 was Count Dietrich II. Von der Mark possession in the same year a Hermann von der Recke from the 10 marks money as Erbburglehen to Kamen .
In the 15th century, the Lords of the Recke shared ownership of the property with the Lords of the Mark.
In 1427 Hermann's son Alef von der Recke combined his share in Haus Uentrop with a share in the neighboring Haus Haaren . He bequeathed both of them through his son Goddert to his nephew, Alef's grandson Johann von der Recke. He married Rorich von der Mark in 1478. In return for the payment of 1,000 guilders, otherwise as a dowry, his father-in-law Everd von der Mark signed over the larger half of the Uentrop house that he owned. The brother-in-law, the younger Everd von der Mark, waived the buyback in 1494. Since Johann acquired sole ownership in 1504, Haus Uentrop has been firmly in the family's possession.
Johann had several sons; Heir to the Uentrop house was Evert, Droste zu Hamm. In 1541 Emperor Charles V granted him a milling privilege for services rendered to the emperor and empire. Evert had a son of the same name who died in 1560. The estate was already so heavily indebted that his widow Gertrud von Münchhausen had to sell it in the mid-sixties (alternative information: 1579). The buyer was the Klevian Marshal Dietrich XV. von der Recke, named and on behalf of his brother Mathias, Commander of Doblen and Lord of Neuchâtel in Courland. His second son Dietrich founded the younger line of the family on Haus Uentrop:
- Konrad von der Recke zu Haaren and Uentrop (1630 - 1630), Rittmeister, ∞ Gerberga von Wylich
- Dietrich von der Recke zu Haaren and Uentrop (1632 - 1656) ∞ Elisabeth von der Recke
- Dietrich von der Recke zu Haaren and Uentrop (1664 - 1693)
Dietrich, grandson of the founder of the line, was raised to the status of baron together with his brother Johann in 1677 (alternative information: 1688). His widow Anna Magdalena von Bar had the current manor house built between 1713 and 1720; the old castle and the farm buildings burned down in 1679. The new property is a two-storey, simple brick building with a central projectile and a walmbach. The builder was Lubbert Hagen from Bentheim / Gildehaus.
The residential and farm buildings made of field fire bricks were added in the course of the 18th century.
In 1763 the line of the warriors died out to hair in the male line. Anna Magdalena's daughter-in-law, the angel Luise von der Recke zu Haaren, inherited her parents 'house in Haaren after the death of her only brother, the jurisdiction of the same name created in 1716 over the parish of Uentrop, Mundloh and the three Dinker farmers' groups in Märkischen. By marrying into the ranks of the Uentrop branch of the von der Recke family, the properties came into the hands of the Recke zu Uentrop. In 1764 Johann Matthias Dietrich von der Recke was enfeoffed with the goods by the king.
The patrimonial jurisdiction granted to Haus Haaren in 1716 over the parish of Uentrop and the farmers of Norddinker was transferred to Haus Uentrop.
The warriors and their descendants have been traceable at Haus Uentrop for over 600 years. House Uentrop is thus the only knight's seat of the old Brandenburg office of Hamm, which is still managed today by the noble family who are seated. In 1976, members of the family lived on the property, which is now uninhabited. The last owner was Wilhelm-Dietrecht Freiherr von der Recke (1928–1992), who sold the house in 1990.
