The Kielsche Haus is a half-timbered house with the address Im Tünken 4 in Blankenstein , Hattingen.
The date of construction of the previous house is not known. It served as a schoolhouse in the middle of the 18th century. When the 17-year-old teacher Johannes Bockhack started work here in 1768, the house was in a desolate condition. In 1770 enough money was collected to renovate the house.
In 1798 the teacher reported: "The school is at its outer end, even outside of the city located on a high mountain, in the depths and directly at a dangerous pond into which several people have already fallen." He also criticized two open ones Well, "one located directly in front of the school building and equal to the earth". The way to school to the house “down over cliffs and stones” was so dangerous in ice and snow that some parents did not send their children to school for weeks. In 1822 the Protestant community moved into another school building. In 1823 the house was sold to teacher Bockhack for 164 thalers.
After his death, his son inherited the building. He had the house torn down in 1840 and built a more spacious half-timbered house. The miner Ferdinand Kiel bought the house in 1868. His son founded a household goods business here. In 1880 he advertised “earthen and stone jars” in a newspaper advertisement; he also lent cups and knives and expanded the business to include " spices ". The shop closed in 1921.
The pond behind the house feeds the Tünken Bach , a tributary of the Pleßbach .
