View of the Bärwinkel farm

The Bärwinkel farm is a historic farm on Felderbachstrasse 103 in the Oberelfringhausen district of Hattingen ( North Rhine-Westphalia ). The farm buildings are located above the Felderbach , about 600 m away from the Felderbachstraße and can be reached via a forest / hiking trail.

geography

The farm, surrounded by forests, meadows and fields, is located in the Niederbredenscheid / Elfringhausen landscape protection area and, to a lesser extent, around the Felderbach in the Felderbachtal / Paasbachtal / Deilbachtal landscape protection area . A summer linden tree , a pedunculate oak and two beeches are designated as natural monuments . The hiking trail (Kreiswaldweg) through the Bärwinkel was recreated by the community in the second half of the 20th century and a bridge was built over the Felderbach. It replaced the former ford and the narrow wooden footbridge over the stream.

history

The Bärwinkel farm was first mentioned in the Werden Urbar in 1220 as the feudal farm “Berewinkel, mansus” of the Werden abbey. Presumably, the ancestors of the Bärwinkel family immigrated here as settlers from the east of the Saxon tribal areas around 1200. In 1297 the “Berenwinkel, mansus” farm was bought by the monastery and is still owned by the family today. In Schatz book County Mark 1486 is in the Bauer shaft Elffrinckhuysen a Sroeder op den Berenwinckel with a delivery of 6 OIRT (1½ Goldgulden called).

There are no related reports on the family history in the past. Of course, she has only dedicated herself to cultivating and cultivating her own clod of land on the remote farm from time immemorial. Like most Westphalian farmsteads was by the Anerbenrecht the court Bärwinkel after Hattinger court law indivisible and always came to a son.

The family name has been different over the centuries with Berewinkel (1220), Berenwinckel (1486), Beerwinkel (1615/1827), Beerenwinckel (1633), Berwinkel (1651), Behrwinckel (1738), Berewinckel (1773), Baerwinkel (1825) and first Written with Bärwinkel from 1868 . The name Berwinkel or Bärwinkel could mean Waldwinkel because of the location of the farm. In Köbler's Old Saxon dictionary , the word “bere” is referred to as a tree, forest or grove, the word “winkil” as an angle or corner. The onomologists Udolph and Flöer also suspect an old word for forest in the first part of the name, so Bärwinkel would therefore be understood as "Waldwinkel".

Since the time when the Hattingen church registers began (1614), family records have been kept in the baptism and marriage register of the Protestant parish of Hattingen-Land. The first entries at baptism were the twins Anna and Henricus Berwinckel on July 12, 1615 and when Margreta Beerwinkel married Jurgen Am Unffer from Bredenscheid on November 4, 1615. It was mostly the sons or daughters of the farms in the Elfringhausen neighborhood that were married. Plattdütsch was spoken. In the 19th century, in addition to farming, family members also ran ribbon knitting on the farm. There was an electricity connection from 1908, and the water was supplied from the farm's own well.

The courtyard buildings, which are several hundred years old, consist of a half-timbered house with an attached stone stable building. Above it, there used to be a separate pigsty made of rubble. Ten meters away from the house is the half-timbered Kotten with an attached small cheek, above it the wooden barn. The Kotten was formerly the personal breeder's house ( senior part ) of the farm. Two tree nurseries were established at the beginning of the 20th century. The farm has 27  hectares of land. In the 1990s agriculture was given up and the land was leased.

Paul Bärwinkel (1922–1991) built and ran the “Haus Bärwinkel” café-restaurant on Höhenweg 38 from 1962.
