Hohenbudberg is a place on the left bank of the Rhine and belongs to the city of Krefeld . Today there are only four houses left here, as the original location was largely displaced by the expansion of the Bayer plant in Uerdingen . Hohenbudberg, together with the district of Vennikel belonging to the Traar district, is a statistical district of the city of Krefeld with around 4800 inhabitants.
history
Already from the year 732/733 a donation of a farm in Hohenbudberg im Gellepgau to the monastery Pfalzel ( Trier ) is mentioned.
In 1927 Hohenbudberg, which until then was part of the Hohenbudberg-Kaldenhausen community in the Friemersheim mayor's office in the Moers district , joined the city of Uerdingen in the Krefeld district . This affected the old town center and Hagschinkel (southern part of Kaldenhausen ). As part of Uerdingen, Hohenbudberg was incorporated into the entire city of Krefeld-Uerdingen in 1929.
The northern part with the site of the former Hohenbudberg marshalling yard , which was demolished in 1986 and was one of the largest in Europe , came to the municipality and later the city of Rheinhausen with the railway settlement built in the 1920s for railway workers and is now located in the Duisburg urban area ( Rheinhausen , Railway settlement ).
building
Worth mentioning is the Catholic Church of St. Matthias , which is the oldest church in the Krefeld city area. The parish is mentioned for the first time in 1150, the tower also dates from the 12th century. The Church of St. Matthias was the mother parish for the parishes in Uerdingen (until 1285), in Friemersheim (from the Reformation until 1910) and Kaldenhausen (until 1919). The Hohenbudberg water tower, which is now a listed building, is located in the railway settlement that is now part of Rheinhausen .
Business
The site of the former Hohenbudberg marshalling yard was redesigned into an approximately 35 hectare industrial park, and the forensic clinic is also located there .
Rail transport
The Hohenbudberg stop was the only access to the railway network in the area of the former village of Hohenbudberg on the Uerdingen - Kaldenhausen - Trompet route . It was put into operation in 1905, was located directly at the barrier post on Friedensstrasse and consisted of a platform with a clock and at times a station building. It was used for passenger traffic until May 25, 1961 and was heavily used by commuters to the Bayer factory. Since the entire line was closed on October 1, 1961 (the Bayer company acquired the closed line south of the former Kaldenhausen station in order to enlarge the factory premises), the track and the barriers were only used for company traffic, as the company did both for the Plant expansion took advantage. In return, the Hohenbudberg Bayerwerk stop on the Rheinhausen - Krefeld-Uerdingen route was set up for commuters to the Bayerwerk . This has now been renamed Krefeld-Hohenbudberg Chempark .
