Gut Kemperfeld is the name of a former manor in the Beverung district of Herstelle , Heristalstrasse 1.

history

In 797, Charlemagne captured a Saxon refuge at a strategically important ford over the Weser and set up a winter camp there , which he called Heristal Saxonicum . The present-day village of Herstelle emerged from it. The designation of the nearby field in the Weseraue as Kemperfeld ("fighter field") apparently also goes back to this time. Etymologically, Kemperfeld can easily be traced back to Kamp = field, arable land. The estate is located on a small plateau above the Weser.

At least since the government of Bishop Meinwerk (1015-1036), Kemperfeld belonged to the Paderborn Monastery and was awarded as an estate by the bishops. The feudal lords received tithes and other services and taxes, and exercised minor jurisdiction . With the construction of the Herstelle castle in 1292, the Paderborn bishops consolidated their influence in the area. In 1385 the castle and the associated Kemperfeld estate were pledged to the von Falkenberg family .

In 1608, the Paderborn bishop Dietrich von Fürstenberg confirmed the enfeoffment of the Kemperfeld estate to Burkhardt von Falkenberg. From 1694 to 1713 Johann Heinrich von Falkenberg was a tenant of Kemperfeld and Blankenau. He sued Klara Elisabeth von Spiegel zu Klingenburg in 1694 before the court in Paderborn and in 1701 before the Imperial Court of Justice against Klara Elisabeth von Spiegel zu Klingenburg for the nullity of a trial in which she had sued his son Ludolf Dietrich von Falkenberg for breaking his vows. In 1728 Ludolf Dietrich was court lord of Kemperfeld.

In 1733 Archbishop Clemens August von Paderborn enfeoffed Georg von Spiegel zu Helmarshausen with the estate. He had apparently married the widow of Kaspar Ludwig von Falkenberg zu Kemperfeld, Sophia Elisabeth von der Lippe , because she still exercised jurisdiction in 1734. Both sued the government of Paderborn in 1737 and before the Reich Chamber of Commerce in 1741 against the Herstelle community because of the justice of the Herstelle community on the lower Kemperfelde. In 1779, Kemperfeld had the status of an aristocratic estate ( manor ) and belonged to the von Spiegel brothers in Helmarshausen . It had about 150 hectares of land and forest, some with areas on the other side of the Weser, which could be reached via a ford.

In 1820 Baroness Ferdinandine Heereman von Zuydtwyck , a daughter of Werner Adolph von Haxthausen , acquired the Kemperfeld estate and two years later also the Herstelle castle as a widow's residence through the mediation of her relative, District Administrator Philipp Freiherr von Wollf-Metternich . Her son Werner Freiherr Heereman von Zuydtwyck (* 1808), married to Fernandine Freiin von Wrede-Melschede (* 1812) since 1832 and confirmed as a Prussian baron in Berlin on November 5, 1845, inherited the Herstelle and Kemperfeld castles in 1851. During this time the Weserfurt was blown up in favor of the Weser steamship . Werner was followed by his son Friedrich von Heeremann-Zuydtwyk (1835–1891). Then Robert Menne from Hainholz near Natingen and his wife Maria, née Nolte from the Spiegelhof in Germete , the estate and lived there with their 6 children. Her work was evidently successful, because her son Eduard Menne (1876–1954) was able to study medicine in Munich in 1897 and later became chief physician at the Bad Kreuznach spa and hospital .

In 1928/29 Gut Kemperfeld with the castle Herstelle was sold to the non-profit settlement company "Rote Erde" GmbH in Münster in order to create new settlements for the benefit of local farmers. Bernd von Kanne acquired the estate archive . The former manager, the farmer Anton Hartmann, received the remainder of about 55 hectares. In 1931 the farm he managed consisted of 25 hectares of arable land , 8 hectares of green space and 17 hectares of land . This included 5 horses , 32 head of cattle , 20 cows and 15 pigs . In the 1930s, a part of the unland area could be reclaimed and converted into grassland and arable land in painstaking detail work with simple wheelbarrows. Later, a considerable share of the area for the road construction of the B 83 was lost. In 1960 the farmer Norbert Klinkhammer (1929–2018) , who came from the Lower Rhine region , married the court heiress Leni Hartmann. Her son Klaus ran the business until around 2000 and then leased the land and the pigsty.
