In the course of time the meaning of the name Hochemmerich changed. Hochemmerich has existed as a parish ( parish ) since around 900, as a mayor's office (with the communities of Hochemmerich, Bergheim and Oestrum at least from 1798).

A jury in Hochemmerich is mentioned for the year 1343. An order of the St. Sebastian Schützen Brotherhood was recorded in 1603. Before the French occupation, the area belonged to the County of Moers . Between 1794 and 1814, the region was under Napoleon French territory, u. a. the Civil Code was introduced here. The occupation by Prussian troops took place on December 6, 1813. When the left bank of the Rhine was again passed to Prussia as a result of the Congress of Vienna (1815), the canton of Moers with Hochemmerich came to the administrative district of Kleve of the Cologne provincial administration . Hochemmerich came to the Rheinberg district in 1816 and after its dissolution in 1823 to the Geldern district . Friemersheim belonged to the Krefeld district and came with Hochemmerich in 1857 to the newly formed Moers district . From 1819 to 1901 the mayor's office Hochemmerich was run in personal union with the mayor's office of Homberg.

On April 1, 1921, the communities of Hochemmerich, Bergheim and Oestrum merged to form the community of Hochemmerich and on April 6, 1923, the communities of Hochemmerich and Friemersheim were united by ministerial decree to form the largest rural community in Prussia under the name Rheinhausen, which had been a small peasantry until then . which joined the village of Werthausen to the east. Both belonged to the mayor's office of Hochemmerich (referred to as "Amt" Rheinhausen from January 1, 1928).

On July 1, 1934, the community of Rheinhausen received city ​​rights . Hochemmerich was one district among others in the city of Rheinhausen (e.g. Asterlagen, Bergheim, Oestrum, Trompet). With the dissolution of the Moers district and the incorporation into Duisburg on January 1, 1975 (to the Rheinhausen district together with the Rumeln-Kaldenhausen community ), the districts within the districts were redefined. Hochemmerich now became the north-eastern part of the Rheinhausen district (including the eastern part of Asterlagen with the district number 602, the southern part became Rheinhausen-Mitte ).

Districts

Alt-Hochemmerich

The heart of the old Hochemmerich is the Christ Church, which was consecrated to St. Peter until the Reformation in 1574 . The oldest predecessor of today's Christ Church dates from the 8th century and was a hall church about 6 × 8 m in size. At that time it belonged to the sphere of influence of Werden Abbey, in the south of today's city of Essen.

About 300 m southwest of the church existed in the 5th – 7th centuries. Century a Franconian burial ground, of which individual remains have been uncovered again and again since 1928. The first documentary mention of the place (as Embriki ) and a church can be found in a lift register of the Reichsabtei Werden from around 890.

In the course of the expansion of Krupp 's ironworks and with it the population growth in the surrounding villages, Hochemmerich grew into the center of the local retail trade and is still the focus of retail trade in Rheinhausen today, especially with the twice-weekly weekly market that has existed since March 1901. The bucket ("Emmer") in the Rheinhausen city arms symbolizes this district.

Atrop lies in the south of Hochemmerich between Rheinhausen-Mitte and the Rhine , bounded by the Wesel-Duisburg-Mönchengladbach railway line . The center is located on Atroper Straße. It consisted of around 10 farms that had already settled in around 900. The most famous court was Heinrich Köhnens, who ran the Kronenbrauerei on Atroper and Hochfelder Strasse from 1868 to 1919. Parts of the Margarethensiedlung , a workers' settlement, built around the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, also belong to the district.

The small district, located directly on the Rhine dike, is known for the former Werthauser ferry, known since the Middle Ages , which instead of today's bridge of solidarity connected Hochfeld and Werthausen. The small fort in Werthausen from Roman times is also documented by archaeological finds. The name Werthausen (formerly Werthuisen ) means the house on the Werth (island) .

Mayor's office building

The entire administration of the mayor's office in Hochemmerich (consisting of the mayor, a secretary, an apprentice and 2 policemen) found space in 2 living rooms in the Altenschmidt house on Asterlager Straße from 1901, during the registration office in the Kirchstrasse house. 8 was housed. Due to the rapidly expanding Krupp factory, these rooms were only makeshifts. On October 17, 1901, the district administrator of the district of Moers issued the instruction to obtain offers for a specially built mayor's building. The building permit for the building at Moerser Straße 26 (Kommunalweg from Hochemmerich to Oestrum) was granted on April 22, 1902.

On May 25, 1903, the mayor's office in Hochemmerich moved into the newly constructed building at Moerser Straße 26, which until 1929 housed the municipal administration and later a school and for many years was the seat of a branch of the Duisburg Institute for Youth Welfare, a municipal advisory service.

Dialect and colloquial language

Hochemmerich (like Rheinhausen as a whole) is located in the Lower Franconian dialect north of the so-called Uerdinger line , which runs from the Rhine via Kempen to Venlo . This dialect line (also called ek-ech border) separates the southern Lower Franconian (which is spoken in Uerdingen and Krefeld, for example, with the pronunciation of “esch” for the personal pronoun “I”) from the northern Lower Franconian Platt, which is in the Krefeld district Hüls (see Hölsch Plott ) begins and is (or was) spoken in different variants throughout the northern Lower Rhine - with the pronunciation of “ek” instead of “I”.

The Rheinhausen dialects are influenced by the Moers “Grafschafter Platt”, but differ from one another in the individual districts. However, the dialect is rapidly disappearing and is hardly understood by the younger generation. Instead, a “new” colloquial language prevails, the so-called “Lower Rhine German”, called “Regiolekt” by linguists. Although it is based on Standard German, it has special characteristics due to the inclusion of expressions from immigrants or words of youth language . The miner's language has also left its mark on everyday language. Many know the saying of: "..da hate abber Futtsack off" (the term. Futtsack indicates that something "went wrong" It comes from the time when yet. Pit pony worked underground, which in difficult conditions with have been immobilized in the feed bag .)

sons and daughters of the town

Theodor Timmermann (1627–1700), born in Hochemmerich, was a pharmacist , mayor of Mannheim and mayor of the Palatinate colony of Magdeburg .
