history

The Jäckelchen residential area was first mentioned in 1536. The name of the place was spelled differently over the centuries with Gackul (1536), Gaukel (1543), Jekell (1565), Jackel (1575), Jäckel (1666), Jackelgen (1696) or Jäckelgen (1841). The type of naming of the place name is unclear. Presumably it could indicate a wooden building or part of a building, such as gable yoke, gable post, wooden stick, coat stick .

In Schatzungsregister of 1536, in the Official Bilstein , Bauer shaft Niddern Hylden , a Gobell Uff the Gackull with an output of 2 ort (½ Goldgulden ) and a Heynman Uff the Gackull 5-called location. In the register of 1565, Gobbels' children on the Jeckell had to pay taxes of 2½ gold gulden.

On February 22, 1556, the Mayor of Attendorn Markus in dem Winkel and his wife Anna sold a pension from their Rauterkusen farm to Hans op dem Jackel in the parish of Helden . In 1576, Peter on the Jaekel was named as a witness in a lease. Noble families were also wealthy in Jäckelchen. In 1578 Heinrich von Heygen pledged his farm on the Jäckelchen to Hermann von Neuhoff . In 1630 Wilhelm von Neuhoff zu Ahausen sold his court to Drosten Friedrich von Fürstenberg .

Jäckelchen belonged to the court and quarter Bilstein of the Electorate of Cologne until the 19th century . From 1816 the place was part of the tax community and the parish of Helden within the rural mayor's office of Bilstein in the Olpe district, in 1818 31 residents lived in the place. The place categorized as Höfe am Osterloh and named Am Jäckelgen according to the locality and distance table of the government district Arnsberg had two residential houses and seven agricultural buildings in 1839. At that time, 24 residents lived in the place, all of them of Catholic faith.

The municipality and estate district statistics of the province of Westphalia in 1871 listed the place as a farm Jäkelchen with two houses and 17 residents. The municipality encyclopedia for the province of Westphalia in 1885 also gives a number of 17 inhabitants for Jäckelchen who lived in two residential buildings. In 1895 the place had two houses with 16 inhabitants, in 1905 two houses and 15 inhabitants are given.

The address book from 1929 lists the following names in Jackelchen: "Albus, Drüeke, Gabriel, Kern, Sauer (2) and Wenzel". The farmer and landlord Johann Gabriel ran the “Haus Jäckelchen” inn.

On July 1, 1969, the Helden community was dissolved and the area around Jäckelchen was incorporated into the town of Attendorn.

Wallburg

During the excavations of a rampart in Jäckelchen in 1952, fragments of shards from blue-gray spherical pot products from the 11th to 13th centuries were recovered. Only a few sherds are older and should belong to the pre-Roman Iron Age. The aforementioned finds do not allow an exact dating. August Stieren, chairman of the Antiquities Commission, and Albert K. Hömberg counted the Jäckelchen hill fort among the post-Carolingian-Ottonian castles of the 8th to 10th centuries. The relatively small castle complex and the findings so far suggest that the jacket was one of those fortified mansions that arose in many places in the Middle Ages. There are no other evaluable finds for a reliable determination of the age of the Wallburg Jäckelchen, although stone tools and flint finds from the Jäckelchen are known as early as 1900.
