Kölkebeck is a district of Halle (Westf.) In the Gütersloh district in North Rhine-Westphalia with 603 inhabitants (as of 2011) and is located on the southwestern edge of the urban area.

The village has had a volunteer fire brigade since 1909 , a poultry and horticultural association that has existed since 1900, a tennis facility, a football field, a children's playground, a mixed choir, a community center, a cemetery, a renatured quarry pond, two sand mining plants (quarry ponds), a disused one Mill pond, three wind turbines , the “Burg-Club” brothel and the “Rundheide” restaurant (with ballroom).

geography

The landscape is located in the Westphalian Bay . Ice Age sands, of which several sand mining areas testify, lie under large parts of the arable top . From a natural history point of view, the Barrelpäule nature reserve , a heather pond , is worth mentioning, which also includes the sand mining area to the northeast. The nature reserve can be viewed from Sinnerstraße.

The rivers Laibach and Künsebecker Bach run through Kölkebeck and meet in front of the mill pond that was artificially created in 1722. A flood descends from this pond in the north, and the water for the so-called mill stream at the disused mill. This creates the Kölkebeck Island. A little further below the pond, the northern flood and the southern Mühlenbach merge to form the Rhedaer Bach , named after the Rheda farmers in Harsewinkel. The Ellerbrockgraben also flows into the Mühlenbach below the mill . This is the result of a large-scale drainage project from Prussian times, before 1800.

history

Name story

The name of the place comes from a combination of "Kölke", which in Low German describes a swirling depression in a flowing water, and "Beck", which means "stream". Today's Laibach / Rhedaer Bach was previously called Kulkenbecke, and the area Kulkenbroich ("Broich" is Low German for " break "). In Ravensberger Urbar of 1556 Kölkebeck for the first time as a quasi-independent but closely related to Bokel standing peasantry documented: "Burschaft Boeckel and wonen uff the Kulkenbecke".

Middle Ages and Early Modern Times

The first settlement took place in the 15th century at the latest. The Count of Ravensberg as sovereign, or the successor, Duke of Jülich, Kleve and Berg, Count von der Mark and Ravensberg , transplanted several serf farming families in this inhospitable area in the border area to the diocese of Munster , probably at a different time . The Barrelmeyerhof in the north, with a special position, was probably founded a long time before. The Settelmeyerhof (today cellar) can be assumed as the second foundation. Until then, and for centuries in large areas up to modern times, “Kulkenbroke” was a wilderness or semi-wilderness, consisting of alder forests and similar types of biotope, with isolated open swamps, heather areas and oak-birch forests. The Laibach and the Künsebecker Bach, coming from the Teutoburg Forest, were rich in water all year round, and meandered in large loops through a break landscape, where today the school bush, the mill pond and the former Stolte estate are located. The entire catchment area of ​​today's Ellerbrokgraben, an artificial drainage system of modern times, was damp and inhospitable, right up to Brockhagen. In the Middle Ages, this area was used, if at all, for hunting, logging or acorn masts from Halle and Bokel.

The nobleman von Tatenhausen was the fiefdom taker of the Count von Ravensberg for the Bokel area, and the farms in this area were subservient to him. The farms established later in Kölkebeck, however, were directly subservient to Count von Ravensberg and his successors. It must have been a foundation by the supreme liege lord, regardless of Tatenhausen. When exactly the first courtyards were founded in this Ravensberg border area to the territory of the Marienfeld monastery cannot yet be determined.

The Kölkebeck Urhöfe are first mentioned in the Duke's church visitation from 1533 and in the Ravensberger Urbar from 1556.

Today's "center" of Kölkebeck was uninhabited and uncultivated at that time. Sand paths that were very difficult to drive led to the first farms. Most of today's streets did not exist. In the late Middle Ages, you have to imagine Kölkebeck as a very lonely place, with four courtyards at today's western end of the Dallweg and Rhedaer Bach, as well as the somewhat more remote Settelmeyer (today cellar), and the free Barrelmeyerhof in the deep bush. Agriculture was very difficult and most of the Kölkebeck was not yet arable. Around the individual farms were their small and not very productive arable land, on which mainly rye, buckwheat and oats were grown. The cattle, if any, were kept in damp meadows or driven into the forest and drank from the stream. The stream was also used to wash clothes. The pigs were regularly driven into the bush for acorn and beechnut fattening.

As is customary in Westphalia, the farmers mostly handed over the farm to their youngest son. The landlord (the Duke as Count of Ravensberg) could only intervene in the event of mismanagement and for other serious reasons. The farmers did not own the farms in today's sense of the word until 1808. They only received the right of use in return for cash payments, compulsory services and benefits in kind. The majority of the land was cultivated as common land by all farmers until 1797.

The border location of these farms between the county of Ravensberg and the properties of the Marienfeld monastery suggests that the sovereign wanted to cement his existing territorial claims against the prosperous monastery and its sovereign, the Bishop of Münster, with their establishment. The monastery was very active in the Middle Ages and founded, inherited or bought many farms. These activities may have prompted the Count of Ravensberg to set up farms in this remote area. In the case of the very remote and possibly much older Barrelmeyer, the founding background was that he was appointed as a supervisor for the huge, largely uninhabited forest areas southwest of Halle. This so-called barrel bush had been used for unregulated mast driving from Halle and Bokel since ancient times. Today only a small part of the barrel bush is left. In the 16th century, the entire semi-wilderness southwest of Bokel and south of Hörste was considered "Barllbusch".

The ideas of the Reformation spread in the Ravensberg region from around 1525 and were tolerated by the duke. The Reformation began in the Halle area in 1595 with the entry of a secular priest into the Hall church. Until 1916 (the village school was rededicated as a chapel), services were only occasionally held in Kölkebeck, which belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran parish of Halle, mainly in the school house and occasionally on one of the larger courtyards.

About the history during the Jülich-Klevischen succession dispute (1609 to 1614), the Thirty Years War (1618 to 1648) and its aftermath, nothing is known in detail that goes beyond the general history of the County of Ravensberg. The Kölkebecker "original farmers" no longer have any documents from these warlike decades or before. Kölkebeck was at that time and is still the border area to the diocese of Münster . The farmers in Harsewinkel , which is neighboring to the southwest , remained catholic except for the outskirts.

The total loss of all records from the time before the Thirty Years War - with the exception of the ducal land registry - suggests that marauding hordes did not attack the lonely courtyards just once. It is known of the neighboring Marienfeld Monastery that it was raided several times and had to be abandoned at times.

The Kölkebecker Urhöfe

Map sketch by Kölkebeck around 1556 Map sketch of Kölkebeck around 1556. The course of the paths is only an approximation based on a map from 1805. The approximate course of the meandering brook and the location of the other farms are historically correct. It is currently not known which farms existed on the Marienfeld side.

Hofstelle Kölkebeck 1: Menke , also Meyncke and Elssche Sogebrynck, or Segebrinck, today Fräkem (Sinnerstraße 5). After the common land was divided up in 1797, this old farm probably became the largest farm after Barrelmeyer, but was divided after the sale in 1880, resulting in a total of four farms: Femmer (No. 50), Menke (No. 51), and Vahlenkamp (No. 52). The old yard 1 also remained and is still preserved today.

Hofstelle Kölkebeck 2: Sinnerbrink , also Sinderbrinck or Synderbrynck, a farmstead on Dallweg between Kronsbein and Dallmeyer that was bought by Dallmeyer after 1879 and dissolved after a fire.

Hofstelle Kölkebeck 3: Kulckenbecker , also Kulkenbecke or Kölkebeck, today Dallmeyer (Dallweg 20). This at least 500 year old farm is located directly on the old border with the Catholic Münsterland. Today's Dallweg, with its end in the courtyard, marks the extreme end of the County of Ravensberg. The court appointed Kölkebeck's mayor twice in the 19th century. Mayor Hermann Heinrich Dallmeyer, called Kölkebeck, suddenly enlarged the property around 1879 with the acquisition of the neighboring Kölkebeck Urhof Sinnerbrink, which burned down around 1880 and is no longer preserved. In the 20th century, Fritz Dallmeyer appeared as a council member, military leader of the city of Halle, and as district fire chief. The place in front of the fire station was named in his honor after his death in 1994.

Hofstelle Kölkebeck 4: Settelmeyer , today cellar (Settelweg 4).

Hofstelle Kölkebeck 5: Vormbrock , also form Broke, Vor dem Broicke, today Kronsbein (Dallweg 11).

Hofstelle Kölkebeck 6: Dierich Barlemeyer , emerged from an early division of the Barrelmeyer farm - No. 25 - later called Witgen or Witgentöns, today Tönjes (Hesselteicher Str. 22).

Hofstelle Kölkebeck 25: Barlemeyer (today Barrelmeyer), with 156 hectares by far the largest farm in Kölkebeck (Hesselteicher Str. 36). In the church visit of 1533 there is an entry which admonishes the Duke's Haller Vogt to prevent this child-rich court from being divided. Since a Dierich Barlemeyer (No. 6) is mentioned in the Ravensberger Urbar of 1556 as the second free farmer with the name Barlemeyer, there was obviously an inheritance of this individual farm between 1535 and 1556, which the duke, despite his manorial rule, probably because of the free The family could not prevent it. Barrelmeyer is the best-documented farming community. When the farms were numbered consecutively in the course of the reorganization of the state administration under Prussia, this farm was initially not given a number, which emphasizes the special status. The directly neighboring farm Tönjes received the number 6.

Hofstellen 1, 2, 3, and 25 were the oldest farms, as they were mentioned as early as 1535. It was founded in the 15th century. Farms 4, 5 and 6 were added sometime before 1556. With the exception of Barrelmeyer (courtyard No. 25), who has always enjoyed a special position and is possibly older than all the others, all families were serfs of the duke.

Kölkebeck under Prussia

The sovereign changed around 1614 when the county of Ravensberg fell to Brandenburg-Prussia as a result of the Jülich-Klevian succession dispute .

It was not until 1706 that Kölkebeck was mentioned again in a document in the contribution register, a tax list that was used to maintain the royal army ( Prussia ). The number of farms had risen to 24. Barrelmeyer is not listed here and was obviously tax exempt - another indication of the special position of this farmer. Around this time, Kölkebeck also became an independent farming community.

The water mill and associated pond was around 1722 on the orders of the Prussian administration under Frederick William I built. The local farmers built up an oval dam and in this way dammed the Laibach / Rhedaer Bach. This also created the flood that splits the Laibach at the Mühlenteich and creates the so-called Kölkebecker Insel.

Between 1797 and 1799, under Frederick the Great , the commons were divided into two major brands . These large areas, previously farmed jointly or unused by the farmers, were assigned to individual farms for use and reclamation. The importance of the individual farms grew as a result, as did the demand for labor. To do justice to this, the farmers built numerous heuerling houses (Kotten). This is the time when the current ownership structure and paths essentially come from. In 1929 there were still 20 farmers with a total of 35 hirer positions. The heuerling system in Kölkebeck ended in 1982 with the last kötter, Ruwwe, signed a lease for the Dallmeyer farm.

Driveway to Hof Keller in Kölkebeck

Around 1807 Kölkebeck became "French" as King of Westphalia through the enthronement of Jérôme Bonaparte , a brother of Napoleon . Beginning with a royal decree of 1808, the autonomy for all farmers who had not yet bought themselves was gradually lifted. The traditional rulership of the sovereign was declared to be annulable, but this could only be done individually in lengthy replacement contracts against payment of a sum of money. Around 1813 the old county of Ravensberg and with it Kölkebeck fell back to Prussia. The abolition of serfdom and other modernizations of the Jérôme period remained in force. 1816 was a municipality in Kölkebeck circle Halle (Westfalen) , Regierungsbezirk Minden of the province of Westphalia of the Kingdom of Prussia , and got a community leader . This independence was retained even after the state of North Rhine-Westphalia was founded in 1946.

Kölkebeck in the 20th and 21st centuries

The first paved street in Kölkebeck is Kölkebecker Straße between the war memorial and Gütersloher Straße in Bokel. The previous sand path was provided in 1910 with a firm packing layer made of limestone and a gravel cover made of greywacke . It was like that until the 1950s.

After the Second World War , around 250 displaced persons from the former German eastern areas settled , mainly at Schulbusch, Am Denkmal and Schmiedering. The population rose suddenly by over 50% from 496 to 775 (the national average was 10%). Some of the new settlers had previously found shelter with the local farmers. As many refugee families moved away over the years, the number of inhabitants decreased, but remained constant at over 600 due to the new settlements.

The school in the parish hall was closed in 1968, with 40 children last in 1967. The last headmaster was Willi Beiderwieden.

As part of the Bielefeld Act , the formerly independent municipality was incorporated into the area of ​​the city of Halle (Westphalia) in 1973 .

The old fire station in Kölkebeck
Damp meadow in Kölkebeck

Until 1979, where the fire station stands today, there was a village school built around 1835 in half-timbered style, which was consecrated as a place of worship in 1916 after the schoolhouse was built - called the “chapel” in the village. After the church service was moved to the parish hall (1971), the church stood empty for years and became increasingly dilapidated. Despite opposition in the community, the city council of Halle (Westphalia) and the Evangelical Lutheran Church Community Halle (Westphalia) decided to demolish the chapel and build a new fire station in its place . The furniture and jewelry in the chapel donated by individual farmers were returned to the Stifterhöfe after the demolition, some of which they sold. The magnificent glass window donated by Hof Dallmeyer is considered lost. It depicts Christ in the style of the Archangel Michael, how at the end of time he conquered the devil - symbolized as a dragon -, sin and death. The inscription read: "The Lord Conquered Sin And Death - Raised The Flag In The Dawn."

The old fire station (built in 1930) was renovated on its own initiative by the Kölkebeck volunteer fire department.

The schoolhouse (built in 1906, expanded in 1914) was converted into a parish hall in 1971 because the school had been closed since 1967. Since the building fabric no longer meets modern requirements and the last tenants have moved out, the city of Halle Westfalen, as the owner, is looking for a community usage concept in 2011, or an investor who is willing to take over the property and continue to ensure the use of the community hall. After a long struggle with the Kölkebeckers, the city of Halle (Westphalia) was persuaded to keep the parish hall in the hands of the city and to renovate it. The renovation work will be completed in 2015 and the parish hall will then be available for use by the associations in Kölkebeck. The former school garden is to be restored afterwards and can also be used as an outdoor seat for the clubs.

The Stolte restaurant, which is extremely important for village life and was founded in 1895, which was also a corner shop , ballroom and, until 1970, bakery, closed in 1990. After years of vacancy, the former family business was bought in 1995 by Heinz Lindert, a local poultry entrepreneur . After several failed attempts (including "K54"), he and his wife Ingrida opened "Chaplin's" in 2006. The restaurant was closed again in January 2008. The entire property including the football field is for sale. The city's zoning plan provides for a green area in this area.

Wind turbine in Kölkebeck

In the 1990s, the city of Halle examined the possibility of building a new wastewater treatment plant for all wastewater in the city in Kölkebeck (corner of Sinnerstrasse and Settelweg). This plan was dropped, also due to the considerable protest in the community and a public disagreement in the family of the property owner Dallmeyer. Instead, the existing facilities were expanded and gradually all of the community's properties were connected to the public sewage network.

In 2005, two wind turbines , each with a hub height of 96.5 meters and a total output of 3  megawatts, were built in Kölkebeck. A third system (hub height 111.5 meters; rotor diameter 77 meters; output 1.5 megawatts) went into operation at the end of 2007. The operator of all three plants is the SeeBA Energy Farming Group.

Thanks to a newly laid copper cable, most households have had access to DSL since March 2008. Deutsche Telekom announced an upgrade for October 2016, which will make VDSL possible in large parts of the village.

In 2011 there were 603 residents in Kölkebeck, including 58 non-German EU citizens and 12 non-EU foreigners.

Incorporation

Kölkebeck was incorporated into Halle on January 1, 1973.

Schlüp'n Werner, Kölkebeck's historian

Werner Schlüpmann ( Spenge ), who was born in Kölkebeck, created the 492-page source and article collection Kölkebeck - “... and wonen uff der Kulkenbecke” - over decades of work, with research among farmers on site and in the archives of the region . The work is characterized by attention to detail and written oral tradition. Each farm is dealt with in its own article. Numerous photos, certificates and old maps from private archives are made available to the public for the first time. In 1999 the work was self-published by him and is available from him and can be viewed in Hall's libraries and archives. In July 2007 Werner Schlüpmann received the cultural promotion award of the city of Spenge .
