location

City structure Dorstens

Hervest is located northeast of the Dorsten core city on the north bank of the Lippe .

history

Hervest has had its own parish since the Middle Ages, to which, in addition to the parish of Hervest, the farmers' communities Orthöve and Wenge also belonged. The municipality of Hervest belonged to the Lembeck office since 1844 and to the Hervest-Dorsten office in the Recklinghausen district since 1929 .

After the commanding general of the VII Army Corps , Oskar von Watter , had previously obtained the consent of Gustav Noske , he had the General Soldiers' Council dissolved by the Freikorps Lichtschlag on February 11, 1919 and its members arrested. On February 16, a pacification campaign was ordered against Hervest. The blood trail that began here earned the formation the name "Freikorps Totschlag".

On April 1, 1943, Hervest was incorporated into the city of Dorsten.

Mining

Hervest was shaped in the 20th century by the Fürst Leopold mine , which mined hard coal from 1913 to 2001. The former port railway has been converted into a sidewalk, which now runs from the former colliery area to the Lippe and is a reminder of the mining era.

Due to subsidence in the northeast of Hervest, a wetland area was created, which is now a nature reserve. There are two stork nests and a cattle breeding facility.
