history

The Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715, Blatt Amt Steinbach , proves that the place already existed as a mill in 1715 and was called Humemühle . From the chart of the Duchy of Berg in 1789 by Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking , it can be seen that Hommermühle was part of the Breibach community in the parish of Kürten in the district court of Kürten at that time .

Under French administration between 1806 and 1813, the Steinbach office was dissolved and Hommermühle was politically assigned to the Mairie Kürten in the canton of Wipperfürth in the Elberfeld arrondissement . In 1816 the Prussians converted the Mairie to the mayor's office in Kürten in the Wipperfürth district . At that time Hommermühle belonged to the village and later municipality of Bechen.

The place is recorded on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 as a lobster mill and on the Prussian first survey of 1840 as Hommer mill . From the Prussian new entry in 1892, it is regularly recorded on measuring table sheets as Hommer-Mühle or Hommermühle .

In 1830 the place had 18 inhabitants and was called Hommermühl . The place, which was categorized as a courtyard and fruit mill according to the overview of the government district of Cologne in 1845 , had two houses at the time. At that time, 17 inhabitants lived in the place called Hommermühle, all of them of Catholic faith. The municipality and estate district statistics of the Rhine province list Hommermühle 1871 with three houses and 20 inhabitants. In the municipality lexicon for the Rhineland province from 1888, two houses with 14 inhabitants are given. In 1895 the place had two houses and 13 residents. In 1905 the place had two houses and ten residents and belonged denominationally to the Catholic parish of Bechen.

In 1927 the mayor's office in Kürten was transferred to the office of Kürten. In the Weimar Republic in 1929 the offices of Kürten were merged with the municipalities of Kürten and Bechen and Olpe with the municipalities of Olpe and Wipperfeld to form the office of Kürten. The Wipperfürth district became part of the Rheinisch-Bergisch district on October 1, 1932, with its seat in Bergisch Gladbach .

In 1975 the current municipality of Kürten was established on the basis of the Cologne Act , to which, in addition to the offices of Kürten, Bechen and Olpe, a sub-area of ​​the city of Bensberg with Dürscheid and the surrounding areas was added.

The Hommermühle

Only the mill building and millstones in the village bear witness to the watermill that gives it its name . Originally it was a bone mill . Later it was also used as a flour mill. The house is entered in the list of architectural monuments in Kürten .
