Location of Horneburg in the Recklinghausen district

Horneburg is a district in the southwest of the city of Datteln with over 600 years of history around the Horneburg Castle .

geography

Surrounding localities

On Dattelner city Horneburg bordered to the east by the district Meckinghoven , on the north by the peasantry Hagem. To the neighboring cities the village borders in the south on Castrop-Rauxel's district Henrichenburg (peasantry / Becklem settlement ), in the southwest on Recklinghausen - Suderwich and in the west on the Oer-Erkenschwicker district Rapen .

Topography and soil conditions

Horneburg lies on the foothills of the Vestische Höhenrücken east of Recklinghausen on a marl soil, in the area of ​​the place loamy soil in places affected by waterlogging. The area around Horneburg is particularly fertile because of these soils.

Several streams arise south of Horneburg on the watershed of Lippe and Emscher and flow to the Dattelner Mühlenbach. For a long time, a nameless brook fed the Horneburg Graves, whose outer trenches south of the Alte Freiheit were filled in as early as 1859.

Borderline

The last two residential buildings at the western end of Horneburger Straße are geographically in the Oer-Erkenschwick city area. The entire village is signposted as a district of Datteln.

The village area in Datteln is also not delimited by the district boundary. The two parts of the Dattelner Südfriedhof and the new building area at the chapel are statistically located in Mecklenburghoven.

history

The starting point for a settlement in the Horneburg region can only be traced back to the 13th century, although there were excellent agricultural conditions. Entries in the bailiff's role of the Werden Abbey indicate that Horneburg Castle was probably the core of the village's development .

Around the palace complex there was a small village that consisted of three short streets that can still be seen today. The castle consisted of a main building and an outer bailey. Today only the old east wing of the outer bailey remains of the entire castle. A special school boarding school is now housed in this and some new buildings.

Freedom houses

For a long time, the village of Horneburg was an independent municipality with the status of a freedom . Until the middle of the 20th century it consisted of only a few houses, some of which can still be seen today in Schloßstraße , Horneburger Straße and Straße Im Ort (all today's names). As an ensemble, these houses still bear the name Freedom Houses . The houses are half-timbered and form a closed unit. Some of them are more than 200 years old. The house Horneburger Str. 28 is the oldest standing house in Horneburg, possibly even the oldest standing house in the whole of Datteln.

Horneburg primary school

In 1610, the rectors of the village church at the time ensured that a school could be set up in Horneburg on (today's) Horneburger Strasse near the Recklinghausen gate. It was expanded there in several construction stages until the 19th century, until it had to be relocated for reasons of space. She moved to Magdalenenstrasse, in front of the town gates. It always had a well-attended standard, but its child strength decreased significantly towards the end of the 20th century.

In the summer of 2009, exactly one year before the 400th birthday of the school, it was closed and the children were referred to classes at the primary school in Meckinghoven. This drew protests from parents and students.

The old elementary school was sold in the summer of 2014, making it the new owner of the Diocesan Caritas Association in Münster. Thus she became part of the special school boarding “in order to accommodate the so-called diagnostic class of the special school boarding school Horneburg there in the long term”.

Territorial reform

Horneburg has been assigned to the city of Datteln since the municipal reorganization on January 1, 1975. Before that, it had been part of the Waltrop Office since 1844 . On August 1, 1929, a small area was ceded to the city of Recklinghausen . Mainly it concerns the northern part of the forest area Becklemer Busch , whose southern part, from Henrichenburg , also came to Recklinghausen and today occupies the extreme northeast of the Suderwich district .

The coat of arms approved by the Prussian State Ministry in 1937 shows the castle tower of Horneburg , first mentioned in 1220 ; the horn was included in the coat of arms as a speaking symbol for the place name.

Description of the banner : "The banner is red and white striped lengthways with the coat of arms above the middle."

Description of the flag : "The flag has red and white cross- stripes with the coat of arms in the white part , which makes up a third of the flag."

New development areas and construction work since 2000

In March 2002, Wolters Partner presented a village development concept. It was also noted that the approx. 100 building units in the Orot development area would increase the population by an estimated 300 new residents to around 1,900 residents.

Orot development area

In the years 2003 to 2008, the new development area Orot was developed in the south of the village , which consists of the streets Im Orot and Auf der Heide . It is responsible for the fact that, on the one hand, almost 250 inhabitants were added to the Horneburg population, but also that the average age of Horneburg fell.

New building area at the chapel

In the summer of 2010, when there was already a new construction project in Horneburg with the L 511, a new area was developed that is still not fully developed. Directly to the north of the cemetery, the area up to Horneburger Straße was opened up by the street An der Kapelle with around 25 new building units. Of this, all of the properties were sold at the end of January 2012, but only around 75 percent of all buildings were finished or under construction.

The playground and rainwater retention basin have also already been completed. As part of the area, a footpath to the Feldstrasse bus stop at the roundabout was also laid out. Furthermore, the area along the Dortmunder Straße from the rain retention basin to the roundabout and further to the border of the cemetery has been surrounded by a noise protection wall.

Even if it was statically located in Meckinghoven, the new building area was signposted as Horneburg and a neighborhood was also anchored in the Horneburg village community.

Groundbreaking for the bypass on September 22, 2009

New bypass road L 511n

Horneburger Straße is the town's main thoroughfare, which up until September 21, 2010 was the main street in its entirety. It drove some cases up to 12,000 vehicles through the town center, including many trucks (about ten percent) as the road the main link of the Oer-Erkenschwick industrial areas for A 2 showed. The speed on the street was limited to 30 km / h, but due to the enormous amount of traffic and the narrowness of the location, it had actually been overloaded for decades. Almost 40 years of planning entered the final phase with the groundbreaking ceremony for the new bypass road on September 22, 2009. The construction project was finished exactly one year after the start and thus before the planned date.

Since that day, the bypass has been running in an arc around the town in the north. A roundabout was built at the eastern end of the bypass route, which also prevents major congestion. The route leads partly over the Dattelner and Oer-Erkenschwicker area.

The “Feldstrasse” bus stop in the direction of Mecklenburghoven was also relocated as part of the expansion. If it was formerly east of the intersection, it was moved to the west side and also got a raised bus platform. The stop on the north side also got a raised boarding edge.

Traffic lights were installed on the streets of Horneburger Straße , Am Bollwerk and Buschweg . However, it became clear that the system on Horneburger Strasse was leading to a backwater up to the intersection of Verbandstrasse , so this system was shut down.

At a meeting of the Horneburg village community, the street was named Landwehrring in a vote , which was then officially confirmed by the Datteln city council.

After the completion and opening of the bypass road, the width of Horneburger Straße was reduced in width, within the local area the sidewalks in the area of ​​bottlenecks were widened to a minimum, and Horneburger Straße was given a new road surface.

Reconstruction of Horneburger Strasse

The Horneburger road shortly after the completion of the bypass

After the bypass road was completed, the access road Horneburger Strasse in the northwest and Dortmunder Strasse in the southeast were dismantled accordingly. The width of the lane has been reduced to 6.5 m. This also created space for the footpath on the southern side of Dortmunder Straße.

The entire district was converted into a 30 km / h zone. The right-before-left rule now also applies continuously on Horneburger Straße. As part of this dismantling, the sidewalks along Horneburger Strasse were also extended at the narrowest parts of the townscape and parking spaces were marked on the street.

Pedestrian crossings (zebra crossings) were also created at the intersections with Wilhelmstrasse and Schloßstrasse. The pedestrian lights at the Schloßstraße intersection fell away.

New training place

The municipal sports field of SV Horneburg 1948 e. V. better connected. The economic stimulus packages of 2009/2010 also made it possible to set up a new standard size training facility. This was officially inaugurated in summer 2010.

Culture and sights

Historical path Horneburg

One of the panels on the Horneburg Historical Path

From the home committee of the Bürgererschützenverein Horneburg 1384 e. V., a tour through the historical cityscape has been set up, with nine information boards around the castle and through the Horneburger Busch and through the old town ensemble.

A flyer has also been issued to further clarify this path. In 2010 the flyer also became the basis for a website that presents the route accordingly. All boards can also be found there as photos.

Club life

In addition to the five large clubs, there are also a large number of smaller clubs that excel in terms of sport or other activities.

The associations organize most of the events in the village centrally and thus also offer a cultural image of the village. Most of the appointments are held in the premises of the only restaurant in town, which in 2012 almost got lost.

More than 50 associations and neighborhoods are represented in the village community. The five largest clubs are named here as representative.
